Classic, elegant, colourfully flambouyant, that is who you are, Oga Am Alone.

I am loving this detailed work of yours, God bless you.

Please how many feet is the set back of your fence from the road that passes in front of it?

@caseymoney at al. Thanks for the education on tiles. On my recent trip to India, i happened to stay in an apartment and was trilled by the quality of the tiles used in the sitting room, kitchen and bathroom to the extent that i had to ask the Manager the name of the tiles and he said that they are Vertified tiles. Is there any difference between Vitrified tiles and Porcelain and Ceramics tiles. In addition, is Vetrified tiles sold in Nigeria.

atasteve:

Oga sir, please did you take any pix of this wonder edifice

NL1960:

@atasteve. It is not an edifice o. I just took the pictures of the tiles in the sitting room and bathroom. I will check my camera when i get home and post them tommorow. I took the pictures because i wanted to use them to search for such in Nigeria. What i learnt from the Manager is that the tiles are locally produced in Nigeria.

^^^Vitrified tiles are very similar to ceramic tiles, but are made with slightly different elements. The clay is mixed with quartz and feldspar before it is heated in the kiln. These extra ingredients melt, creating a glass element inside the tile. This glass component makes the vitrified tiles very hard and resistant to any type of absorption. The floor tiles in the bathroom has a shinny surface like vitrified tiles.

Vitrified tiles cost a couple of dollars more per square foot because of their extra qualities. Vitrified tiles also need a stronger adhesive than ceramic tiles, which can cost more in installation.

I was told there's a bigger tile market in Orile. They tend to cost between $8 and $20 dollars per square foot here in the US.

@Sprumbaba, I'm still looking for two more cars to fill the container. I would let you know once the required number of cars have been met; then, I'd be able to determine the space for the tiles.

Am Alone:

I left 3feet set back from the road before mounting the fence.
Normally, I was supposed to have around 1feet after my fence
but since I left 3, I have 4feet now.

I plan to use this 4feet to plant at the front of my fence.
I'm certain that will add more beauty to my house
Peace
