Thanks to the subscriber who blessed Socks with the blocks, and Thanks to each and everyone who watch, subscribe, like, and watch the commercials ❤❤❤❤❤
Pure uplifting. I love that they are all putting their money to good use. Nothing like having your own roof over your head. I’m so happy and proud of them.
Socks what a blessing!!. You people are so humble before God starting from Colaz. You all work so hard and show respect to all people. Look how your Brother Bud feed the homeless although he is busy building his house. This is how the world should operate, but thank God there are still a few people who are willing to do good in this world. May God continue to bless Colaz and the group.

Hi Socks. I'm happy to see your post. I'd love to see you post more often. Anyway, I wanted to say that you should make the kitchen on the 1st floor and then you can do bedrooms and a added bathroom on the 2nd. You can even do a master suite upstairs overlooking the view.
Hi Sox this is only a suggestion concerning you wet walls. You need to tank the walls just like they do when building rooms under ground. Any wall under ground needs a waterproof membrane to stop water from soaking through the walls from the outside to the inside of the wall. The soil always has water in it clay soil retains more water. You have several different products on the market to solve your problem. You will have to dig out the dirt like you intend to do anyway. Down to the foundation and start from there, There is a self adhesive tanking membrane on the market which comes on a roll 1m x 20m long per roll which is For use in tanking external wall surfaces below ground level such as foundations and walls to basements and walls above ground but which are soil retaining. You can ask your hardware supplier what product he has in stock for TANKING. This is only one type of material used but there are several other products available. It is only a suggestion but doings it properly will save you in the long run as it is your home you want to live in and wet walls will ruin everything in your house plus make you sick. Blessings and good luck with your project. I’ve put a link to a product below but there are several manufacturers of it, this is so you can see what I’m talking about take a look at the pictures www.fixingsstore.com/visqueen-self-adhesive-tanking-membrane-1m-x-20-metre-rolls-rs062251/p/26385?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAApNWtYSB6QqNGR7pTsN3TLRD1nhZY&gclid=Cj0KCQjw7ZO0BhDYARIsAFttkCh7uBU-ExGDxFEmLlCIZfEJ1mZZiJcjc3tOqaxW4ywRl38MQonF7ikaAvUWEALw_wcB
If you do use this kind of product, it’s best to fill all joints so wall is flush and give it one coat of render then the membrane product then you can fill it back with soil. Only the piece that will be under the dirt needs to be covered with membrane. You can even cut it to suit the line of your steps with some preparation thought. REMEMBER Sox there is a difference between builders and architects and it is better for you to do it once than fixing something like this later as it will cost you more in the long run. But remember this is only a suggestion you are the boss it’s your house. Keep up the betterment of self and like the man Marcus Garvey say - knowledge learned and not passed on is a waste of knowledge. Blessings
@@BIGRIGS819a lot of people think that you just build and that is it not knowing how it really works. Especially when it comes to underground buildings. Water is always in the ground that is why they have a thing called (the water table). Meaning some areas or certain soils that retain more water than others in it. Water will always win if you don’t take the right preparation to stop it. If you take a fish out of water and want to keep him alive you put it in a container or fish tank with water. The same principle applies to keep the water out hence the word (Tanking) in building a house it’s the reverse to keep the waters out. You can get rising damp that comes up through the floor as well as damp through the wall Only certain materials can keep water out PERIOD.
You and your brother come together join the houses in a way that water doesn't affect both properties and get some professional advice . The hill and rain is a big factor . If any professionals out want to help please help
What is required is the installation of proper drainage to drain the water away. Without this ..the problem of condensation is likely to remain the same. An outlet is required to drain the water away.
Fill up the back of the house and paved it so it level with the house top and put a step at the side of the house where the window is to keep out the water water will never go in the house that an easy solution
You need to fill it up and paved it so the water can't get in it better that way. paved on top of it to keep out the water you could also put a step by the side of the house where the window is that will help to keep out the water.
I'm So happy for you the great socks I can't wait to see your little place come together like how your bother j bud own has come along nicely continue to work towards it I will continue to keep you in prayer sending love all the way from Trinidad 🙏❤🇹🇹
Bless up your self sock, I watch you guys all the time, I just love what you guys are doing in your community it's a good look, I am from Jamaica living in florida, sock I am just saying this, you should build on the kitchen where the window is, then move the window and turn it into the door to go in the kitchen, big up to colza at all times.
He is going to block his brother the place will look ghetto if they don't build properly how does he plan to enter the down stairs part of he go on top
There are some some great and generous people out there. And it's thanks to that generous subscriber who has blessed Socks with his or her generosity of blocks. If I were in a position to help, there would be no hesitation, but unfortunately, living here in UK Birmingham, England as a pensioners, I'm in dire straits, like many of us.. I could do with Colaz help 😂😂. Thanks to Colaz and the team for such great job they're doing. God is blessing you guys abundantly, and may it continue. God bless. Big up your self..eesah. tek u time, no joke.
Hey Socks and Oshane!, Though I've done some building it's very important that you put this water proof membrane in place as having it in place will help you sleep better in years to come;
