Hi mate, watching you from the UK and I'm loving your videos. I'm also planning to start building in Ghana. From your video description, I think your building is where I come from ie the mountains.😃 I'm really learning a lot from your content. It's so amazing how you explain things for everyone to follow and understand. Nice one bro! Much respect.👍🏾

hello asher & gad, is there anyway to provide me an idea how much a damp proof membrane will cost for four bedroom house in ghana?.it is not on your budget list.

Hi, thank you for sharing. Hmmm, I dont believe they 'forgot to fill the tank' , it was more of a planned thing so it could be stolen. Most of them are like that, they know you can afford to buy another tank.! The more experience you have with artisans in Ghana, the better one becomes in joining the bits of a seemingly innocent explanation in a puzzle, believe me. Is it safe to leave materials in a wooden shed or you built the fence wall 1st please? Also if I need your experience and expertise in the electrical aspect of building ,would you be willing to help please?

Testing for what purpose exactly? - This video is an old one so I can't remember what I was saying. You have to remind me. Is it referring to soil resistivity for earthing purposes?
