This is beautiful Sir. Has the outer wall been screeded?

Thanks sir, what you see there is only plastering…. We always carried out top notch plastering in all our construction work

EgunMogaji2:
It's completely worth it though.

I'm still waiting for the rest of my wooden doors to be manufactured, 19 pieces. I wasn't aware it would take this long or I would have ordered much earlier

Yes baba, good solid door do take much time to fabricate sir but you will surely enjoy the outcome artistically coupled with longevity

Hi guys, so there this three-bedroom I am building here in the north, I spent 190k to plaster in and out, with 109 bags of cement.

However, a few weeks after plastering I see cracks vertical and horizontal on the plastering.

When I took it up with the person handling the project, he said they are crazing and it will go away during screeding.

My question is: how true is that? Considering the fact we made use of sharp sand and ranged was used.

Kindly assist please

Let me quickly attend to this.

Plastering plastering plastering.

There are so many things that can lead to this cracks
- poor workmanship
-non appropriate mix ratio
- quick hydration
- sub-standard materials

Poor workmanship.
At time when non professional handle this aspect of work it can lead to this cracks. ( example when appropriate wall thickness is not adopted, when cement and sand is not well mixed.)

Mix ratio
Plastering and rendering comes in different mix ratio ( if truly you used 109 bags of cement it too much for this building means this can lead to the crack … too much of cement . Yes I was though this in sch as building technology student then and also as I put this into practice as a builder now to always check the appropriate mix ratio to avoid cracks) here you cement shouldn’t be more than 70bags to covered this building

Quick hydration
When you are in hot region or in dry season you needs to check how to do your plastering/ rendering reason why you must wet your wall before plastering unless if the wall is wet bit before … this wet serve as curing with this you will not experience cracks

Sub standard materials
Cement, sand even dirty water can cause this cracks.
Your cement must be in good state condition , make sure you used fine sand for your plastering more so don’t used dirty water.

Finally you don’t need to be panic a well mixed ratio of screeding solution coupled with good workmanship will solved the problem.

@House

Please, can tiling stop a wet wall from expanding?

The leaking pipe was replaced, yet the wet wall keeps expanding.

NO sir, it can’t stop it, it means the leakage is not well done …you need to put final stop to the leakage source 1st
