I spent 44,000KES on buying cement, sand and paid a mason to cement the floor and walls of my house. I also bought a set of seats @5,500KES.

I have a chest problem and the dust from the floor used to affect me. I have also been able to control the termites that were damaging my walls by cementing. I feel more at ease now.
