Recently I visited my Friend “Kemboz” who resides in Pipeline, along Mombasa Road.
Being the natural adventurer that I am, I was super excited as this was my first time to venture to those areas.
Upon reaching there, I utterly disappointed. Instead of decent apartments, I saw vertical, poorly designed, overcrowded slums.
And what worries me is that this kind of flats are not limited to Pipeline Estate.

Are they really that good than traditional options such as ceramic or porcelain tiles?
What is a plastic tile?
Plastic tiles are basically made of plastic materials such as PVC (polyvinyl...

He excitedly informed me that he is now a proud slumlord at Darajani, housing 40 tenants. Each...
