Abdomox:Screeding is a fine thin layer of plaster applied over cement plaster to give a smoother final finish than regular cement plaster can give. It is not as hard as cement plaster, so it's possible to sandpaper it further to a smoother finish. When paint with sheen is anticipated to be used, it's advisable to screed the wall so as to level and correct flaws, cracks and holes on the wall otherwise the reflection of light would highlight such flaws on the wall. Such errors would not be noticeable if emulsion paint with no sheen is used or if noticeable, it won't be pronounced but conspicuous if matte my silk or satin finish are used. 1 Like |

gbadexy:Sir is sheen one of the ingredients of paint? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by gbadexy(m): 8:36pm On Sep 17, 2018 |
Rubbiish:depends on the type of paint sir. The medium the pigments is suspended in is like clear nylon cello tape when dry in such sheen paint. sheen is just a feature of some type of paints. like matte with low sheen to silk to medium sheen and satin with high sheen water based paints. |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Abdomox: 8:48pm On Sep 17, 2018 |
gbadexy: Thank you. So one must do cement plastering before screeding right? Or can it be done simultaneously? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by gbadexy(m): 8:54pm On Sep 17, 2018 |
Abdomox:Definitely ma'am. cement plaster is compulsory while screeding is optional depending on how smooth you want the finish to be. screeding is done over a plastered wall and at a different time after the cement plaster must have been fully set and cure. 1 Like |

Many thanks, Sir Gbadexy. What are the materials needed for screeding? And what's the cost of screeding like? Can any bricklayer do the job? Or there are ppl who specializes in this. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by gbadexy(m): 9:47pm On Sep 17, 2018 |
Abdomox:There is the pop emulsion paint with pop powder combination, pop emulsion with Portland cement and pva bond combination and there is the ready mix screeding putty paste type. There are professional screeders that do the application and they are different from bricklayers. The screeders are in the best position to give you the quote and cost, all subject to negotiation. 2 Likes |

sako28: Contrary to what others said above... I have always painted my house before fixing the electrical fixtures. 1. I want all the areas to be painted. 2. No smudges, even little spot, on my fixtures. 3. No extra charges from painter for taping the fixtures before painting. 4. Regardless of how careful, some unseen drop of paint may still drop on the fixtures. 5. Sorry, I don't know much becos I am not an Engineer but that is how I have done all my projects. Everyone to his/her own. Thanks for reading. Hajji M 2 Likes |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by mufutau55(m): 2:20am On Sep 18, 2018 |
ChiefSupplier55: You have to pay some agreed amount and they will still give you some workers who does nothing because they dont care, just make sure your usual worker work hard so you can finish the project ontime.. if not you will never finish. Have OP discuss with Engineer Segzy14 how he negotiated with them because he went thru the same crap. Hajji M. |
