allCopacetic: ![]() You just know say I like movies. The bricks can be cut with hole saw and filing machine (the same type used for cutting concretes, slabs and tiles). However isn't it better to see it life in action as shown in msogunro's video than just trying to figure it out. Watch out for that part in Episode 80 ![]() 1 Like |

Never involve family in your project. Keep family away from your build. Don't mix family and your house project. So most people here will say. Guess what? I listened and decided to use a friend of a brother who I thought was on my side for my roofing. Alas, him and the roofer has just dealt with me seriously. ![]() It's BACK to my family abeg. It's better family chop me than for an outsider to deal with me with no guilty conscience whatsoever. 1 Like |

EgunMogaji: Egunmogaji, thank you sir. I guess no one can be trusted except oneself. Since one cannot be on two places at the same time we must decide if it is better to let family chop or stranger. In this case, I choose family. ![]() |

ProTouchDesigns: I claim it!! Let me ask you now that I've got your attention. Is it less expensive per sqm to use regular wall paper or to plaster and paint a wall? I've always wondered. 1 Like |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by ProTouchDesigns: 5:49pm On Jul 27, 2016 |
msogunro: I actually will say it's less expensive to an extent if it's the regular wall paper. But it's not like the margin will be that much. To use a regular wall paper will also require you have the wall plastered so as to bring out a very smooth feel and it's beauty. So you are only comparing paint and wall paper. |

twinskenny: Thanks man...is this for a small drum or a big drum? And what are their lengths? |

ProTouchDesigns: Nice job! The first 2 pictures are not wall papers, are they? What is the cost per square meter of the regular wall paper? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by ProTouchDesigns: 6:18pm On Jul 27, 2016 |
danowena: The first two are 3D wall panels not the regular wall paper sir. |

Demainman1: Why complicating issue... Why not involve a trusted roofer, builder or engineer to do your work? |

Demainman1: Ultimately, I just want a sound job done. Stealing money/materials and then topping it with bad workmanship is the pits. Sometimes you just have to leave people to their destiny. You'll finish your house one day and they can't rob you anymore. 3 Likes |

abdulwastecx: The supervision fee can be heady. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Nobody: 7:07pm On Jul 27, 2016 |
msogunro: If I may. AbdulWastecx Aventures Skimanski Bitswork Spyder880 If I was doing a build with a fixed timeline and I can accommodate their Supervision fees then I'll go with one of these. No one is perfect but I have found these list to be above reproach. Why am I not using them? My build has no immediate timeline (there are two houses, one of which is totally empty that I can stay in) and is go as I feel is necessary. Most of them would not want that. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by msogunro: 7:25pm On Jul 27, 2016 |
EgunMogaji: I don't know. Their names alone sound suspect. AbdulWastecx - will he waste my funds? Aventures - will he go on an adventure with my money? Skimanski - sounds like one chance to me the ski mask way. Bitswork - will he steal my money bit by bit? Spyder880 - I see a web of lies before my money is exhausted without a single block laid for the foundation. I"M JUST JOKING! I've spent many hours looking in awe at their builds. They're professionals of the highest caliber. 4 Likes |

EgunMogaji: True, true. That is what Costco, BJs and others are doing for us here.... But I may just team up with a friend who is also at my stage to combine order. If I am not going Nigerchin, Allcopacetic will probably get my order for Coleman (cost matters between two of them). Hajji M. |
