GURRL I can’t tell you just how proud I am of you!! You did sooo good in dem Ghana streets chale. I know a bit of the struggle, but my build was much smaller so kudos to you for your perseverance, patience and bravado. Big up to Super Shady for his support and his contribution to this project. I wish you continued health and prosperity and I pray that one day soon when I am back in Ghana we could link up. God bless ❤❤👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
It’s unfinished it needs to go completely around the room! An the shower needs a little more pressure it not enough for the rain drops shower head… Besides all that everything is looking fantastic many blessings 🇧🇧🇺🇸🇬🇭☮️❤️🤗
Thank you for your input. The water pressure will be increased once there is electricity to run a pump all day. Right natural gravity is ok. Thank you🙏🏾🇬🇭❤️
@kinzababe1 the outside toilet is poorly arranged. The shower is supposed to be at the end where you currently have the toilet, them the toilet where the sink is then the sink moved to the corner of the entrance door. So whem you open the door you have a sink, then toilet, then shower. And the window should be glazed with a frosty tint to make it not visible from outside. At the moment the sink is too close to the toilet seat looking at al the space you have in the outside toilet.
@nanabrimpong3485 This seems to have been an African setup I would never understand. When I first saw this in African bathrooms, I was like, who wants to sit on a wet toilet seat, you can tell this is a man set up, women don't think like having our butts wet...lol
Great job! You can get a pressure pump attached to your water before it comes to your house or even out to your yard. That’s what we did. Feel free to contact us if you need further explanation but to use those nice showers heads you will definitely need more pressure. Ask me how I know.😂 we didn’t have it when we came and we realized we needed more pressure and added it. It has really worked well for us. If your power is out, you will still be able to get your water flowing, but it just won’t have the pressure. Again great job. I love what you’re doing. I know it’s definitely not easy. Thank you for sharing it. God bless you.
Thank you 🙏🏿 for the suggestion, I will definitely look into it. We already had dicuss getting a small water. We will put that in later for right now with no electricity we have running water. 🤗🤗🙏🏾🇬🇭
I'm a Caribbean ghanaian watching you from uk well done I am related to ghanaian famous boxer called Azumah Nelson try to put some cloth on the floor for the mother cat and kitten to sleep on it
I hope they filled the water tank upstairs also for you. I think the wall plastering money could start walling those 3 upper studios. Nkakra nkakra and before you realise you have 4 studios for rent, best to hsve income on your property to support other projects.
Well done Kinzababe 👏🏾 🎉, you have done really well, you had a vision and you stuck it out and we are now seeing the results, I'm sure it has been an enriching experience not only for you but for SuperShady as well, well done to the both of you. 🎉
I love the black and silver too. You have clean classy taste, love it! Wow can you believe that's yours. Personally, I am used to seeing men building, not so much women. Very proud of you!
@HRstar1078 in the Caribbean, we the women are building, so this is what we are use to because if we wait for some men, we might be homeless sometimes.
Kinzababe, I must say you have done such a fantastic job in a matter of time. I have been following from day one. Love the appreciation you show your artisans and most especially Super Shady ❤❤❤
Beautiful place! I love those black railings!! Good job!! You go girl!💕. Hmmm regarding the outdoor bathroom with the shower. I hope you don’t mind a friendly suggestion. From a design standpoint, instead of the shower bring in doorway, thinking I would have the shower and drain towards the back of the room and the toilet (in the middle) and the sink near the near the door. Everything coming off the left side of wall for a cleaner streamlined look and better functionality. Hope this is helpful❤ Us foodies wanted to see how that fried rice turned out! It looked mouth watering watering watching him prep the food.😆🤣. VERY NICE PLACE! I love your tour and commentary! Keep up the good work Sis and Shady. 🎉
Greetings Kinza and Shady, the apartments are lovely as your talents and sense of classic designs shows through. I am with you that completing a room makes more sense, they don't have to back track and you are able to clean as you go, close the doors to that areakeeping it clean as possible. Kinza I can feel your pride and excitement through my t.v😅 in no time you will be moving in......just wonderful!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Good day kinza, suggestion, why don't you run solar to one bedroom one washroom and kitchen, so you can sleep, eat and wash and also say good by to rent! And then do what else you can after!
It looks beautiful, Well done ✅👍🏽. You may have to start sweeping 🧹 some of the rocks and dust. I don't want you to slip and fall going up those stairs. It would be less clean up you will have to do in the future when you finish. Just a suggestion. Very proud of your determination. Keep pushing. Be safe & blessings 😊😊 😊😊
@kinzababe1 price never comes down in Ghana, in January its going up again further so don't be scared to do things, because the longer you wait the more expensive it gets. Now It's only the block work and plastering and little plumbing and wiring needed for that and before you know tiling and furnishings later and money for rents soon comes when done.
Yes I do understand it all depends on the carpenter. I have no plans right now so it needs to be finished. Some people don’t mind when they open their closet doors to an unfinished look not me it has to be completely finished. 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Congratulations on your lovely project! Great idea to be onsite as you finish up your details. If you’re onsite you will need electricity. Get your own small solar powered system going, and add on the govt electric program when it is available. You really want to be independent and safe while you are there in your home.
Great Job Kinzababe1 and super shady. Great accomplishment, sista Kinza 👏 coming to the end of 2024. I give you your 💐, your project is looking amazing and continue to be blessed and focused 🙏 ✨️ 🙌 ❤️
Great job. I agree with you on finishing the Wardrope area. My tiller left those space same as yours did. I had to call him back to finish it. Once again you did great. 👋👋👋
23:19 @kinzababe1 please have that place shaddy was standing with the skirting finished. No i disagree with shaddy on that and i agree with you. Have the tiler finish it for you its your room, don't have anyone dictate what you want you decide and have it done. The pieces of tiles are available so what is the problem here that shady is saying its not done like that? Have it done because its not done like that and its incomplete. You could also decide to use thst spot for home office desk area instead and it needs the skirting, the other space next to the door could be your wardrobe area and dresser also. Or vice versa because its more spacious than the other area you reserved for wardrobe, or you can have both as wardrobes and put your work desk in the living area or next to the other window area.
@kinzababe1 yes let them fix it. I don't know why shaddy sometimes sides with them, its your project no disrespect to anyone and he needed to listen to you and make sure they do it. I saw the resistance there and I disagree. Sometimes you must also step forward and instruct them exactly what you want done. Also its good to be nice but not too nice with people because they don't take you serious when you insist on things as they take advantage of you being nice, this was the issue with Vincent and how fast he changed. So please step up also and instruct.
@kwaseb its necessary because she hasn't decided to put a closet there yet. She has another space next to the bathroom and its also much bigger for a closet and this can be used as a desk area or a dresser. Besides why does a small strip of tiles available from the leftovers to cover that little space now becomes a problem? And besides in abroad and even here in Ghana the entire room is covered with skirt. And besides its her home and she wants it done so why the audacity to tell her it's not necessary? Is it your room? Are you the one to live there?
@kwaseb try to read all before making an input, the owner wants it and it will be done, she has been saying this over and over for long and people are cutting corners.
Greetings! I agree %100 trim should be finished in the wardrobe in case you decide something different later! To me it’s unfinished exactly like you said! Glad you had them finish it. Make sure the water pressure is strong in the shower & faucets! Other than that everything looks great! Question: Is the mason going to finish the stairs eventually? They look unfinished & have cracks & chunks of cement missing..they need to be smoothed out or are they going to be tiled eventually?
Goats you say, my lord😃. I agree it is not finished 😃. The place looks great. Those other people living there should share the price of the pole. I can tell you getting anxious to move in. Well you are going to need a bed etc. much love
Don't feel bad, sis. Don't tap ECG alone. Don't do it. I learned my lesson the hard way. By law, in Ghana, when you install ECG poles, you only have it for 24 hours, after which, it basically belongs to everyone. I spent a ton of money to connect 3 phase electricity pole to my house, and now it's benefitting a lot of people building around me. They expect me to bring water so they can tap for free. Unfortunately, i couldn't dig a borehole because of the salt content. building by the ocean. If you can do solar and buy yourself sometime, pls do it. Pls try to use the phrase " some Ghanaians." Not all Ghanaians build uncompleted structures. Sorry, most of us believe in the power of completion. Hahahah! i just want to set the record straight. I think you have a sizable number of Ghanaian subscribers who are genuinely happy for you. Congratulations.
Both of you are correct. You can finish the wall and add a closet or the closet can be added to the unfinished wall since no one will see the back wall. I like finishing before adding the closet. Beautiful work.
Looking good well done so proud of you guys, love your bathroom looks amazing ❤️😍🙏, I start watching you journey when you were fixing your gate. I know it's not easy 🙏 keep up the great work ❤️
Beautiful show and tell! I think the reason they leave the skirting in the wardrobe area is that the skirting takes up space and the wardrobe cannot fit snugly into the wall...so the wood does not lie on the wall because of the skirting.....I hope you get what I am trying to say😅😅😅
@@kinzababe1 ...I agree it's better to have it fully done. You might want to move things around in future and not completing it would restrict you. Love the progress❤
What a blessing. It is coming along. Don't pay attention to the CC'S COMPLAINERS AND CRITISIZERS. I AGREE IF THEY ARE NOT BOOTS ON THE GROUND THEY NEED TO SHUT IT DOWN AND GET A LIFE. I AM EXTREMELY FINICKY ABD I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH.
@ I’m referring to the floors in your bedroom. Is that vinyl? They look like wood, but I doubt they are because it too hot in Ghana for wood floors. I like the look.
Kinza, hope all is well with you, much blessings. Although Sola is a good option, once electricity is available, it is better to get the electricity to your house. Electricity is much cheaper, the national grid is getting more robust and reliable, pretty soon if you live in an area where electricity is available sola will not even be considered. People talking about sola but they don’t tell you how expensive it is to install to supply a basic three bedroom house. From my personal experience, if you don’t need sola, don’t even consider it, it will take you almost twenty years to recover your investment. With sola you might say , I don’t have electricity bills, not thinking you have already paid you bills up front.
Is the wall in the back be the same height as the side cause it's looking low. Does that pump has enough pressure from my observation it looks like you need a little more water pressure.
Remember my house is on a hill so looking down it will look low. The water pressure is all gravity. I know I will need a small if I want strong water 🚿 pressure but not right now.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
You did this sista you got the right crew and tools it was up a d downs but at the end of the day everything has a big SMILE on it and I am so HAPPY for you. Now make sure there is a room preserve for me 😊👍🏽🩷when I come to Ghana to visit.🫶🏽
That is Kinzababe's house, so she can choose to do what she wants, but the explanation the guy was given is also reasonable. Because she will understand the guy later when they fix the wardrobe.
Hi Kinza your your project is looking awesome. How are going inclosed the washroom s in the apartments . I noticed that they are completely open, are you going to put a glass door/partition? My opinion concerning the wardrobe. The apartment is unfinished if the wardrobe is not completed with a door for instance. Keep up the good work. Compliments to the season.
The washrooms will be enclosed with glass. Even if I built a wardrobe I will be seeing the unfinished look every time I open it. Thank you 🙏🏿 for your feedback 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
@kinzababe1 the tanks need to be drained and cleaned completely before you install he new filters. You shouldn't change filters before cleaning the tanks, same procedure as the cars. You drain the oil, put new folter before pouring new oil, same applies to the water tank. For the outside toilet the shower is meant to be where the toilet is a the end, then the toilet is supposed to be in the middle and the hand wash at the entrance. You cannot have a shower before sink then toilet at end, that way if someone has a shower the whole floor is wet and the toilet cannot be used. Berst to swap them around in the correct sequence. From entrance, its sink, then toilet and shower at the end in corner. Mush better loke this.
I wanted the sink outside so the shower 🚿 could fit nicely but they didn’t listen at all. They just couldn’t get it, because I added the shower after they acted like it made things so complicated for them. After I saw that they still put the sink inside I just left it because it’s just something for someone to wash off after a day work.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
@kinzababe1 Kinza it still needs to be done properly, I am sorry, but it's your property and excuse me to day most of these guys not modern inclined and some live in old style houses or come from villages and some are used to the old jack and Jill seperate bathrooms so they don't get the concept. This external bathroom could serve as a washroom also in future should you have a swimming pool there where people would come to pay to use. Look at the big picture and don't allow them to dictate for you, if they do it their way, have them remove it and correct it. Else they would always mess up. It's your building your house your rules. Do it your way kinza not thier way, its not thier home but yours.
@kinzababe1 please if you can have them switch everything around. Because the whole floor will be wet once someone takes a shower and someone else needs to go through the wet floor just to use the toilet is very wrong setup. Best to have shower in the end, toilet in middle and sink near the door.
@kinzababe1 never too late. Because a lot will like to be around you to see the progress to learn from you also to do their projects while they are there.
I would say it depends on the caliber of Ghanaian who don't complete skirting inside wardrobes. It's about adhering to higher standards. Super Shady probably hasn't been exposed to certain things. Definitely the skirting inside the wardrobe needs to be done. Otherwise, obviously it will look tacky and incomplete. Stick to your own sensibility Kinza.
Gud Morning from NC kinza get yourself some Dog German Shepard or Rottweiler kinza have them sweep the stairs it's a trip Hazard do want to see you Falling.
oh my God this is sooo funnyy😅 they call you black caribbaen obroni ? any way they are in the village cos nobody in Accra or where iam from in Ghana will call you obroni you not obroni 🤣

Hey, this is Mike. I agree with Shady because it is finished. It has to fit flush with the wall if you skirt it then it won’t fit flush.

Electricity is much cheaper, the national grid is getting more robust and reliable, pretty soon if you live in an area where electricity is available sola will not even be considered. People talking about sola but they don’t tell you how expensive it is to install to supply a basic three bedroom house. From my personal experience, if you don’t need sola, don’t even consider it, it will take you almost twenty years to recover your investment. With sola you might say , I don’t have electricity bills, not thinking you have already paid you bills up front.
You are certainly right, that’s we I am trying my best to get on the grid first. Thank you 🙏🏿
Please finish the closet to your liking and nobody else.
Thank you 🇬🇭🙏🏾❤️
Will the skirting keep the closet from being flush against the wall? If not, in my opinion, it’s unfinished. Greetings!🤗
I all depends on the carpenter if build a closet or if I buy one either way it looks better if i finish it until I decide.
Is the wall in the back be the same height as the side cause it's looking low. Does that pump has enough pressure from my observation it looks like you need a little more water pressure.
Remember my house is on a hill so looking down it will look low. The water pressure is all gravity. I know I will need a small if I want strong water 🚿 pressure but not right now.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
You did this sista you got the right crew and tools it was up a d downs but at the end of the day everything has a big SMILE on it and I am so HAPPY for you. Now make sure there is a room preserve for me 😊👍🏽🩷when I come to Ghana to visit.🫶🏽
Thank you for your support! 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
If you could, put plastic or trash bags over the fixtures and tape them up so they are not abused
That is a good idea 👍
Everything should be finished to your liking. It is not finished.
Thank you 🙏🏿
That is Kinzababe's house, so she can choose to do what she wants, but the explanation the guy was given is also reasonable. Because she will understand the guy later when they fix the wardrobe.
You need pressur booster pumps
wrong placement of the toilet pot position, the shower area has to be after the toilet pot
Yes I know that
Thank you 🙏🏿
Hi Kinza your your project is looking awesome. How are going inclosed the washroom s in the apartments . I noticed that they are completely open, are you going to put a glass door/partition? My opinion concerning the wardrobe. The apartment is unfinished if the wardrobe is not completed with a door for instance. Keep up the good work. Compliments to the season.
The washrooms will be enclosed with glass. Even if I built a wardrobe I will be seeing the unfinished look every time I open it. Thank you 🙏🏿 for your feedback 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Kinzababe1 👍
@kinzababe1 the tanks need to be drained and cleaned completely before you install he new filters. You shouldn't change filters before cleaning the tanks, same procedure as the cars. You drain the oil, put new folter before pouring new oil, same applies to the water tank.
For the outside toilet the shower is meant to be where the toilet is a the end, then the toilet is supposed to be in the middle and the hand wash at the entrance. You cannot have a shower before sink then toilet at end, that way if someone has a shower the whole floor is wet and the toilet cannot be used. Berst to swap them around in the correct sequence. From entrance, its sink, then toilet and shower at the end in corner. Mush better loke this.
I wanted the sink outside so the shower 🚿 could fit nicely but they didn’t listen at all. They just couldn’t get it, because I added the shower after they acted like it made things so complicated for them. After I saw that they still put the sink inside I just left it because it’s just something for someone to wash off after a day work.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
@kinzababe1 Kinza it still needs to be done properly, I am sorry, but it's your property and excuse me to day most of these guys not modern inclined and some live in old style houses or come from villages and some are used to the old jack and Jill seperate bathrooms so they don't get the concept. This external bathroom could serve as a washroom also in future should you have a swimming pool there where people would come to pay to use. Look at the big picture and don't allow them to dictate for you, if they do it their way, have them remove it and correct it. Else they would always mess up. It's your building your house your rules. Do it your way kinza not thier way, its not thier home but yours.
@kinzababe1 please if you can have them switch everything around. Because the whole floor will be wet once someone takes a shower and someone else needs to go through the wet floor just to use the toilet is very wrong setup. Best to have shower in the end, toilet in middle and sink near the door.
@Kinzababe1 But the filter was installed not long ago, how often must it be changed?
I changed the hold filter because I didn’t like the clear ones.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
@kinzababe1 I understand but also you needed to wait and cleaned the water tanks to have it all fresh to go with.
Finishings need to be finished. It’s not finished otherwise.
Thank you 🙏🏿 I appreciate your feedback 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Hi Kinza! Where is Ebony? Did I hear you say in 1 video that she ran away?😢
Yes I really don’t know what happened to Ebony🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Also, will you have hot & cold water throughout the home? Is there a Water Heater?
There will be a water heater 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
That room is UN finished, has to go completely around including closet.
Yes you are right, the whole room will be finished, the closet is part of the room, it’s going to be good 👍🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾.
@@kinzababe1 its already beautiful but it will be even more beautiful when done !!!
🥰
🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
You could soon be renting to the Americans arriving in Ghana
You are right! Soon
@kinzababe1 never too late. Because a lot will like to be around you to see the progress to learn from you also to do their projects while they are there.
@ I’m taking It one day at a time.🇬🇭🙏🏿🫶🏾
@kinzababe1 I know
@kinzababe1 but please that outside bathroom and your room skirting must be corrected for you.
That bathroom shower downstairs, where is the water going?
There is drainage to the soakaway. Thank you
Hi kinza wjy cant you get rid of tjat car. Your spendingots of money trying to fix it. Just an option the decision is yours.😊
It has to be fixed first before sell. I wouldn’t buy a car with transmission issues. It’s not that easy 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Gò fòr sòlar for now. Until your neigbours come to conclusion how each will contribute for electricity.
I’ll see what I come up with.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Wait the bathroom doesn't have doors it's open.?
@@blackmac500 it’s not completed🙏🏿 Thank you 🙏🏿
How's the weather in February?
The weather in February hot 🥵
You are rushing, baby .You are good to move in
I’m taking my time or I would definitely move in already. It’s just there is things I could be doing there that I can’t when I’m not there.🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
So 4 plots is like what 100 by 70?
1 plot is 70x100
@ ok cool and how much was it then when you bought it ?
I would say it depends on the caliber of Ghanaian who don't complete skirting inside wardrobes. It's about adhering to higher standards. Super Shady probably hasn't been exposed to certain things. Definitely the skirting inside the wardrobe needs to be done. Otherwise, obviously it will look tacky and incomplete. Stick to your own sensibility Kinza.
Thank you 🙏🏾🇬🇭❤️ for your feedback ❤️🇬🇭🙏🏾
It is called baseboard not skirt
@@kanti8942yes, I'm aware. That's how it's referred to in West Africa.
Your not really going to see that skirting once the wardrobe is there so thats just over spending at that point i say its finished already
I’m not spending any extra do you know how much cut tile is being wasted just sitting there? 🙏🏿🇬🇭🫶🏾
Gud Morning from NC kinza get yourself some Dog German Shepard or Rottweiler kinza have them sweep the stairs it's a trip Hazard do want to see you Falling.
I will definitely get me a dog when I move in. Yes the mess is a hazard I certainly understand but they don’t. Lol 😂 thanks 🙏🏿
