Thanks for your calls and messages

indigene:
Someone may disagree, the best earthing or thunder protection you can get are abandoned water corporation galvanized steel pipe, if you happen to have one near you. Set up your arrester, run your copper tape or 16mmsq NYM cable locate the water pipe that that was laid to your home, clamp your cable or copper tape strongly to it, that just what you need.
Importantly earth rod or copper mat must be installed about 1.5metres away from the building you are protecting not at the foundation

Okay

MrOkenwa:
Sir, what product and capacity of central stabilizer would you recommend for a 2 bedroom apartment with average power usage (2 units of 1hp ac, 1hp pumping machine, microwave and electric ovum are the main things they use).
Do you sell them?

You can go for 12.5kva single phase stabilizer

uncleteeh:
It depends sir.
The agreement you have with the architect matters.
Note:
In contractual jobs, the architect serves as the client's representative, until the job is duly completed, and a certificate of completion is issued to the contractor by the architect, an architect is always involved.

Correct!

twinskenny:

Ok oga mì but if the toilet were to be at middle of the house tho, would you suggest it passed through the German floor of the house?

Because ATM I'm just weighing options of not wasting money in getting new pipes and damaging the old ones...I already spent more than 100k on the pipes and it's accessories tho some are still left that would be use for the outside running to the septic tank and soakaway.

The major reason for this initially is that I don't want any of the pipes visible on the building especially the front view of the house

If the toilet is at the middle of the house , there is no option than run the pipes through german floor. Then you should be thinking of thick pipe of 3.2mm .

But with the position of the toilet ..no pipe will show since you are doing a conduit system of installation s and not the surface type. The only thing that will show is the Vent cowl at high level

Stevyne:
If you are in Lagos

Kindly check Orile

Definitely Orile will have it

[quote author=amosblisz post=100670643][/quote]Sir, the pipes not suppose to cross the german floor. The pipes should be run directly to the outside wall as against crossing the german floor. Was thinking maybe the toilet is at the middle of the building

amosblisz:
This is it, that's how the pipes were run through

They’re busy clicking likes and shares. Who cares?

My ongoing build was won in a bid with one of the chairman of Builders here. I knew all he had to say about me during the bid process.

God still win

_______

I cannot count the number of builder/engineers/contractors I’ve helped in silence here. I’m still working on one at the moment.

That’s playing the bigger boy role. We don’t need credits for that.

Even my friend megastar knew that we don’t give a hoot.

_________

If people aren’t building, we will build our own house with our own money and we won’t throw tantrums or burn down a public forum because we are building a house.

@Bolded likely to me based on our last discussion

Pls place your order today .. Price increase very soon

KelvinCoaster:
Yes,i have contacts at Dei-dei market but i'ld suggest you visit the market and buy materials you need without a particular trader in mind.The prices you would get are cheaper than any part of the FCT.

He should be very careful not to fall into the hands of market boys that doesn't have shops but claiming they have.

Thank God another weekend

Dijita:
My cousin will be calling you for the wire he needed for my project.

Okay sir

Okay sir

amosblisz:
Ok thanks. I initially brought in another plumber unknown to the Engr tho, just give me a run through and all he was saying was that at the long run the pipe will definitely chop off and get damaged that anything man made dies off and needs repair, and if I insist on not changing plans and running the pipes outside I'd be the one to regret it later in future and not the Engr.

Sorry is the building a residential building? Is it possible to show us the floor plan so that we can see the particular toilet in question.

Call us today

BrabusNG:
We are our own worst enemies. This is no different from a man using a saloon car menat for 5 passengers to carry 8 passengers and his only excuse is that the pump prices of fuel has increased.

Cement Update

Reliable source have it that Lafarge Ewekoro plant is doing routine maintenance and only Lafarge Sagamu plant is operating at the moment. Even the Eastern plant is not operating.
So production is happening in sagamu but there are too many bookings from other parts of the country that those who even booked for 20 trailers hardly get 10.

This explains the increase in the price of cement. Cement price from the manufacturers remains ‘K’ The problems is coming from the distribution network and not from the manufacturers.

As a matter of fact, Lafarge is trying to clear backlogs.

That's serious

godello:
Please help !!! Between PEX and copper pipe which is better and most cost effective for hot water supply at home

Pex/Henco pipe is better than copper and more expensive than copper.

Less fittings would be used when you go for pex/Henco especially the elbows
