gbadexy:

I am a paint and allied products engineer only if there is any such thing.
screeding falls under coating and finishing.

Gbadexy I'm a fan of Grafitex external finish. But the question is how do you re-new a grafitex finish after several years? How long does a grafitex finish takes before it starts fading hence renewal?

So you can get any colour e.g orange?

So you can't build 5Bedroom duplex to screening for 12m, just 5Bedroom duplex oh, Not 2Units of 5Bedroom duplex oh!.... Anyway, it is possible for me since doors, windows etc are not included.

Carcass for sure.

Different people have different taste for finishing thou so that depends on the client to decide what kind of finishing he wants.

Finishing na another money entirely

Timtol:

Does that change you from being a Qauntity Surveyor to an Arcjhitect?
I know you closely as a good Surveyor.

Not showing clear identity of oneself won't make people and especially your Client to trust u.

Just saying#Let's take Note.

well, I didn't mention that I was an architect.

When you tell people to contact you for bill of quantity does that also make you a quantity surveyor.


FYI my wife is an architect.

Good graffitex would last as long as your regular cement plaster would last.
it's a plaster itself and shouldn't fade. it can last 20 years to 50 years.
I haven't yet seen a graffitex that fades or needs repairs yet.
You can get many colors but not very bright ones with synthetic pigments.
Once you are tired of a color of the graffitex, you could simply paint it with another color color of your choice. either emulsion, matte or satin emulsion.
Funny enough, graffitex and marble trowel paint are now in vogue again and are being used in high brow areas.

Budget of building carcass is not very good without the workings drawings. Take time to present working drawings first to your QS who will give you an average budget of + or - 3%..

Nice one. I think we don't talk enough about the importance of good paint and painting in finishing. Good paint on a building is like good quality clothing on a man. It makes a statement.

Please do more to educate us as you are one of the dedicated professionals here.

Do you supply up to Delta?

You are very correct sir. Good paint is like quality cloth in every sense. It clads and protects the building from the elements thereby slowing the weathering effect of constant rain and sun on the building.
Good quality paint and nice color combination adds value to the building and could transform an old building into a contemporary one.
ironically, the cost of painting with a budget paint is more costly on the long run as the frequency or repainting coupled with the labor and logistics for the duration good quality paint is still effective is higher.
There is a wax based water repellent paint that splashes water off the surface and former water bead that I would be creating a thread on soon.
I've supplied to delta, some states in the east and several other states in general.

Thanks Haji, we are actually digging the soak away so we can fill back the sand into the foundation,which was completed today. As for his stipend, I didn't let him spend as he was staying with me during the 6days work before he traveled yesterday to attend to his family. We would use water supply in the compound of the blue tank in the picture to still water it.He will be back for German floor and setting out block wall soon. It's expensive to build o. I wonder how people survive it lol.
quote author=Hajivince post=70953220]

On a good soil that even Strip footing can be used, 6-8m to screeding while on a not too good soil where Raft can be used, 8-10m and on a bad soil where deep foundation such as Pile can be used, whew, 12-18m depending on the depth of pile. For more analysis breakdown, you can reach me on
