This tiler did not do a good job at this landing area. If this was to be my job, it would be scraped off.

FEGEITOK: I understand. I have a fair picture in my mind. The way yoy want to do it is the standard practice. Instead of gravel base, it's even supposed to be HARDCORE base. It stops the water from rising. Then the DPM and wire mesh before the DPC. But because of the cost of the process, sometimes people take shortcuts. This your Engineer that said you should just put sand bed and tile it, I'm sure he's from Benin. I've seen funny construction in that place.. I hope you verified his certificate? I remember cutting down an estimate from a Benin Engineer by about 40% and he was shouting that the house would collapse. He had even done foundation without oversize concrete.

sonnie10:That is why it’s should be open market, higher prices doses not results to quality finishing. We all had it with Mr Okewa and other guy about their tiler few weeks ago. If some people want make profit of 15k per door for example because he is being busy with different jobs, other's that haven’t get job for 2 months with family to feed, may preferred to do same for profit of 10k per door, think about it. Read the break down Analysis someone else give with the number of HDF woods needed to fabricate the door. To be fair, location is a factor too. 2 Likes 1 Share |

KolaShangOne: This guy is a real engineer, he came to my house earlier this year to use my uninterrupted power/internet to defend his certifications so that he could be chartered. It took two days as after spending the whole of the first day, it was postponed and actual held the second day. Engineers should understand, they do it over zoom now, they used to do in person before. I am happy to learn from you too. I can see you have added more information. |

There is no Where in Nigeria you will get HDF for N13500. HDF Block board is Sold for N16,000 - N17,000. Quality HDF Straight Board is sold for N18500 to N21000 MDF Board For N13,500 to N14,500 Why Marine Board goes for around N13,000. Here in Lagos This Price changes always due to Dollar Rise, Availability of some Certain Colors or scarcity. Doing a Quality Door cost over 2 Boards, let's say 3 Boards which you will have like 20 - 30% offcut from the 3rd Board You will buy Think Edge Tape, Glue, Evostic Gum, Nails, Inges and Locks. Cutting and leaping per Board is between N2000 to N3000 depending on the Machine or Company you are using to Cut, Transport etc. How much do you think is left from the stated amount. A good Quality door is Expensive. Your advice is Only welcomed to Customers who can differentiate between the different types of Board and who can Supervise the whole process of building and installing the Doors to avoid settling for Less!! I once Handled a Project at Lekki where the Furniture Job was given to other person's and I saw how the Furniture guy mixed both HDF and MDF for the Door's. This is Lagos I had to Mind what took me to the Site. Less than a Month when I later Visited the Site 2 Door's were already Fallen out from the inges. Why Because they Screwed the inges on the MDF Board. Those Door's were taken out and had to do another one. My point is this Quality Differs so as to being Pro at what you do! I am a Civil Engineer by Profession but Found Love in Wood work. I am vers in Structure! May God Bless Every Legit Hustlers. Best Regards OX- Furniture KIDfurniture: 2 Likes 2 Shares |

You're on point dannie007. Mixing of boards (MDF & HDF boards) is wickedness. One should be transparent and sincere in all dealings. dannie007: |

HDF is more expensive than MDF. HDF is not the same as MDF. End of story. I am currently building a global security operations center (GSOC) and have bought quite a number of MDFs, I made inquiries about HDF but opted not to buy |

RayRay2022: Using blocks for your pool shows the man is trying to cut cost. So I don't think he should be spending 10million on a small pool. I guess its those pools where the block works as the formwork / retaining wall and then the inside is then reinforced. This is how we do pools. And its not even as costly as that.
