Please house, I want to get roofing materials and would like to know Please can someone put me through in this mistery of made in New Zealand and South korea Stone coated roofing sheets our dealers are confusing me. How can one differentiate them. Are all these sheets not imported from China? How many of our importers do import from New Zealand or South Korea? Which one is made in China since all the products i'm seeing in either New Zealand or Korea?. Also can I get an authentic company where I can buy from. Thanks house in anticipation

I understand your plight. They will definitely confuse you.

Right now, any tile you're buying around 3,000 naira is from China. All those plenty names na confusion grin

Many of our problems is in the pix........

I don’t buy all those online scams anymore. I once did and ended up spending thrice what I’d have spent engaging a professional here in Nigeria to handle the job for me (including support). Yet we couldn’t achieve our goal cry

Over $800 went down the drain. The worse part is the guy is charging me additional $50 to revisit the project.

If na here I pay $800 with nothing to show for it, the news will permanently be on nairaland front page for years.

Someone posted this topic and picture about Owerri: https://www.nairaland.com/6543917/despite-security-shortcoming-owerri-still

My point is; have a look at the attached picture and the quality of houses in the street and look at the quality of the road. My question is, can't the landlords corporate and tar the road? They look well off enough going by the quality of the houses. Why wait for an ineffective government? I find this scenario all over Nigeria which is limiting property value. Tar the road yourselves!!!

This clearly shows you dont understand the average Nigerian mentality. The average Nigerian is selfish and focuses on self. If you go and tar the road and ask these same people to pay, they wont. They will rathert fight you than pay up. Ordinary estate security, you will see folks not paying monthly dues. they will take you to court call area boys to fight instead of paying you.

10,000 is expensive to you? Please do you know the inflation rate in the country at the moment?

The building in question is not even a bungalow. The draughtsman has to work on ground floor and upper floor, moving spaces and creating new ones.

I think I'll drop this issue for now. Architects should come and defend their profession. After spending 7 years in school, someone offers you 10,000 to tinker on a building plan. Na wa o...
It's the best the client refers back to the original plan creator. He may accept an extra 10k charge since "no noble draughtsman" will accept such payment for a re modification.

We all know the economy is tough but...

It's a Nigerian thing o.

Online architectural sites let you choose the formats you want in addition to giving pdf.
But our Nigerian architect won't dare that; it's only paper they'll give you.
Not all.
Architects are even more flexible now. We exchange pdf with clients a lot these days, especially when the design is at the preliminary stage.

I don’t doubt it but why should I do that when I can just pay a professional to do the job for me and focus on my area of core competence.

Our problem in Nigeria is not divine but self-inflicted.

_______

Few hours ago, a professional (here in our midst) charged me N2m (about $5k) to prepare a bill for me. I was initially shocked but I didn’t write him off. I went into negotiation with him and we agreed on a reasonable amount to pay to get the job delivered professionally. I also made an agreement to compensate him if the deal go through.

I have the option of exploring cheaper alternatives, cutting corners or DIY but I chose to work with him because I understand the value of his time and expertise.

Well that’s just me sha! I’d do it same way even if I’m building a poultry grin

Good for you, as you sell 'nuff tiles but can't imagine living in such an impersonal environment.

Lots of examples of “money can’t buy taste” around me here in Elebu, Ibadan.

You’ll see some monstrosity and you know they paid good money for the ugliness.
