Hello guys,

My painter recommended using Matt's paint instead of satin and also producing the paint instead of buying it from the store. e.g., Delux store
Please, if you have a better idea, kindly recommend something better for me. All I want is quality paint.

Thank you

Thank you very much sirs. I'm overwhelmed by the show of support and encouragements.
You may use matte emulsion also. Although the sheen is lower than satin, it can also be washed when done well.
Some call premium emulsion matte but if it doesn't have any sheen at all then it's not matte and isn't cleanable.
Matte could be used on a screeded or primed wall. Due to it's lower sheen, it could even be used on a smooth plaster directly.
You would save close to 50% on cost buying from me compared to the popular brands with overhead and administrative costs factored into the price and you will get similar value for your money.

Structural designs and detailed construction drawings; call or whatsapp +2348025120573

I"m based in Abuja and you'd be getting JB's standard kind of drawings.

I would like to advise that developers always take the design stage of their project seriously. The little money you are reluctant to pay for design can and always do cause a lot of losses during construction. Call me let's reason.

It looks very good ok. But why do you want to give yourself unnecessary headache? If people say it is not ok are you going to tear it down? You already pass that stage. At a stage in building construction you just have to accept and move on.

My initial woodwork was too short for my liking. I asked them to tear it down and redo it. it cost me additional #650k. This one is however different you already completed more than 50% of the roofing

Just Read about a tragedy, a wife and 2 kids died in a fire incident, it was alleged they were trapped in the building. Burglary proof prevented their escape.

What's the way around this to achieve this "security" and same time not impede emergency exit should the need arise?

Having a main entrance and back/side entry into a house sufficient or there are better ways to achieve this?

Don’t use burglary proofs! Find alternative means of securing your home.

Have more than 1 exit plan. One of my boss had a terrace to every room.

Guys,

Which one of 3/4" or 3/4" down granite is more suited for 175mm slab casting and why?

I am considering using the 3/4" due to the high volume involved as that will consume less qty, are there other considerations i should be looking at?

thanks

Well I am not a professional just home builder who like wine Milano like you. Your house design is uneven at the top hence your roof have to be tall unless you want an uneven roof.
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by megacontrol(m): 7:49am On Jan 22, 2021
Hmm, I have never thought about the functionality of the terrace in that way.

Unfortunately, that's one of the features that gets sacrificed first once cost cutting becomes necessary.

We have knocked it off from recent and future builds. now have to rethink that.

thanks

edit: we never use burglary on upper floors and its optional on ground floors, completely up to the end user.

Is there no way we can have a door-like window burglary that can be open in the way we open front door burglary out. Such design may be helpful in situation like this
