Good morning my sister, we used white cement for the walls, a brand called JK. It has an original and a fake. I don't know tilers in Benin, I will make calls to see who can move to Benin to work. Thanks.

Madam, I need the linear measurements on all the four sides, the 12.26sqm you stated is the area. I need linear measurement not area.

11ft, 12ft, 11ft.. If I am wrong please kindly correct me

Share your kitchen plan with the measurements. I will help you sketch the cabinet arrangements and materials needed to execute it

Thanks.. 1st was the initial plan but I changed it to the second one 12.26sqm

Do not use MDF for the cabinet carcass, rather use HDF for the carcass and mdf for the doors if you want to save cost.

If you can share the design and size of the kitchen, I can give you a guide.



Goodluck..






Hi, good afternoon... I had to search for this your message again.. I am about to do kitchen cabinets...just like the layout below but Kitchen size is 12.26 sqm..

Good evening everyone,

Please I have a question; If a tiler gives me quotation, say total Sqm of 50 and I went ahead and bought 53sqm (in case of breakages) then in the process, tiler exhausts all 53sqm. Am I going to pay for the 53sqm I bought or the 50sqm he gave as the total sqm of the room?

50sqm...you don't pay for wastage cos you gave him the opportunity to misuse the tiles...

Good morning all, I'll appreciate a review of attached quote(material and workmanship) fair for roofing a story building with area of 228sqm.

What will be recommendation regarding a minimum kingpost. I am not looking to do high roof like people wink do these days. Kingpost height similar to the one in the second picture is what I am looking at.
recommendations on the type of wood that can last long and against termite are also welcome. Thank you


Workmanship is 500k? Just for wood work or both wood work and the sheets installation? Not even a high roofing...

Will you be in the site with them while they are working? Are you buying the materials yourself or he is the one buying them? That quotation is outrageous for that roof sqm..

Where is your site located at? If in Lagos, Money121

The truth of the matter is that, if u have paid him in full before this discussion, forget about it. But if u have not paid, then there lots of assistance u can get on this thread. If u have not paid him fully or the work is about to commence, pls tell him to send u a quote listing all the materials to be used nd indicate his own workmanship in the quotation. Also tell the house the kind of vehicle u intend packing on the sock away. He should also indicate the dimensions of the sock away.
The chamber should be free of cost because the contractor is still going to use ur materials for the chamber


It has been paid for in full and he has already started working.... Thank you, I will tell him I am not paying for chambers

U will definitely pay for pipping but ur 570k should cover chamber oo. But u need to ask questions as to the size nd materials needed in order to avoid story that touch oo. Go there urself and see what they doing if possible, make videos and snap everything for record purposes

Well he said I should not worry about materials or anything since it's a contract work, his job is to deliver the soakaway and I will pay for piping (I know I will pay for piping cos that's the work of a plumber) and also for chambers (this, I want to be sure that it's should come with the soakaway)... I am currently not around to supervise the work)...
redgem(f): 6:55pm On Jan 22, 2023
Good evening everyone... When giving a contract work for soakaway, should one be worried if materials will remain? And should chambers be cost with the soakaway? Cos I was charged 570k (after plenty negotiations) for soakaway...only to be told this morning to call plumber for external piping and will pay additional fee for chambers sad

I don't know the dimension, I only told him I needed standard soakaway where cars can comfortably pack on..

My pregnant neighbour has been so restless and sick having discovered she's carry twin


This neighbour of mine is pregnant with 6 other kids. She has been finding it difficult to feed her family including her 6 children. Her husband is an electrician and plumber but he hasn't been getting job inorder to take care of his family. The children had been out of school for several years

I live with my aunt who's a widow. I saw my aunt stressed out yesterday and worried and i was wondering what could be the problem. She was the one who told me about the woman predicament. My aunt has emptied her little foodstuffs because of this woman and her children. My aunt is just a poor widow who's managing herself and kids but she can't stand the sight of this woman and her children hungry.

My aunt told me the woman's friend advice her to inject the pregnancy through abortion. She's six months gone and according to those her friends even nine months pregnancy can be aborted provided she has the money and her state of mind is willing to not forceful

According to her friends, they felt that's the best decision she could consider due to her condition. She cannot even feed the ones on ground, they are not going to school and she's still carry twin right in her womb. She hasn't gotten any baby things. It was my aunt that took her for antenatal when the pregnancy was in 4 months stage. She has been so confused on what to do. My aunt wasn't in of it though, same time she doesn't have money to her and her children.

Nigeria isn't saner climes where government the less privileges. She will be having 8 children in total if she chose not to abort it. What will become the fate of these innocent children? How will she survive with these children in Nigeria? She fainted yesterday and was rushed to the hospital. It was confirmed that she has been thinking so much and she doesn't eat well. This has affected her health conditions.

Her family and that of the husband had been so helpful according to her and it has really taken a toll on them. She even lost one of her uncle who has been ive. This woman is sad, she's broken and shattered into pieces. I'm even scared of her life because she's not getting good medical attention for her condition. She doesn't eat well for herself and the foetus. I'm even bothered about her life, I sincerely hope all what she's going through wouldn't tell on her on the day of delivery.

Please what's your advice for this woman and her family

Adoption is open....

I can't vouch for the durability of this product. I thought you meant the ready mixed putty.
This is basically the dry type of pop cement and pop emulsion minus the topbond/binder..

Oh...okay

Then will go for the already mixed...

It's in 20 liters bucket and is in a thick paste form.

Quote me anywhere, ready mixed putty is the most durable screeding material for internal and external.
It doesn't peel over time.

This issue of visitor's toilet I I was angry at the engineer for changing the initial plan of the toilet being inside cos it was a norm for me....but now I'm happy with what he did.. Some said it wasn't secure for the door of the toilet to be outside though but I'm glad he was so stubborn to not listen..

My dad's house the visitor's toilet is in the anteroom and I the smell that comes out when used my bomb producing visitors... grin grin it wasn't funny though

Good Morning Sir... You are almost done with this project and it's coming out really beautiful and you are quite fast with it...
