Housing is one of the most important human rights, but a house is not complete without a roof. While building a new roof or replacing the existing may appear to be a simple task, the cost is influenced by a variety of factors. Aside from the shingles, the roof construction cost includes elements such as nails, ventilation, and labour. Follow us as we deconstruct the average cost of roofing a house in Nigeria The cost of constructing and roofing a structure in Nigeria is heavily influenced by a variety of factors and varies greatly from one location to the next. Factors such as the type of foundation, the cost of constructing materials and labour, the house design, the type of roof, and the interior finish, to name a few. For example, in Lagos, a flat can be built for $20 million, whereas in Ibadan, the identical flat could cost $15 million. To figure out how much it costs to roof a building in Nigeria, you must first calculate the roofed area in square metres. That is, the length and width of the structure, as well as the ridge cap, ceiling,cladding, board, valley gutter, gutter trimming, among other things. Some of these measurements can be obtained from the roof plan, or better yet, physically measured during the construction process. Roofing Sheets’ Originality and Authenticity After a few years of exposure, certain sheets change colour, resulting in a flowing splash of gold and rust. Aluminium roofing sheets They are the favoured roofing material for many Nigerian home builders since they are less corrosive and do not leak, unlike zinc roofing sheets. Long span corrugated aluminium roofing sheet and step tile aluminium roofing sheet are the two varieties of aluminium roofing sheet. Red, blue, yellow, green, chocolate, and brown are some of the colours available. These types of roofing materials are widely utilised in Nigeria’s major cities, including Abuja, Lagos, Port Harcourt, and others. Zinc roofing sheets In historic cities like Ibadan, zinc roofing sheets are often used. When compared to other forms of roofing sheets, they are quite inexpensive. Zinc sheets are durable and can bear both heat and weight. Abestos Although it is not environmentally friendly, asbestos is also inexpensive and has the ability to absorb heat and resist corrosion. It has been outlawed in many Western nations due to the health risks it poses. Stone-coated or stone chip roofing tiles As the foundation metal for this roof covering, stone-coated or stone chip roofing tiles are formed from an alloy of aluminium and zinc, sometimes known as “galvalume” or “Alu-zinc” metal sheets. Stone coated roofing tile comes in a variety of styles, including shingle, bond, classic, Roman, Milano, and shaking. The names, however, may alter from one maker to the next. The corrugated design of this roof tile adds to its appeal. Some have two stone colours on them. Original stone covered tiles provide any home a distinct advantage over the competition. In general, they provide good value for money. Following the trend, stone coated roofing tiles appear to be the newest in town, with a 50-year lifespan. During this time, these tiles will not corrode, fade, or crack. Wood is the most popular material for roof trusses. It is inexpensive, readily available, and simple to work with. They are used for woodwork before the roofing sheets are fitted during the construction of a house.

Furthermore, even if they have the same number of units, no two houses can have the same roofing costs. Here are some factors that influence how expensive or inexpensive it is to roof a house in Nigeria. 1. The Foundation of the House The style and size of a house’s foundation will almost certainly impact how much it will cost to roof it. The foundation of the house is where the plans and units are carved out. This determines how many square metres the house takes up in total. In comparison to larger houses, buildings with smaller sizes or less square metres usually require less roofing sheets and components. 2. Roofing Design New trends and designs arise over time, not only in the fashion world but also in home construction. Roofing styles have changed over time. We are now living in an era of high roofing 4. Wood Types The type and quality of wood used in roofing can also influence the price of a house in Nigeria. The cost of using hardwoods or steel is likely to be higher than using soft, low-quality woods. These factors also influence the materials required for home roofing in Nigeria, as well as their costs and duration. 5. Roofing Sheet Types and Quality Over time, roofing sheets have changed. In Nigeria, we now have more advanced, long-lasting roofing sheets. Nonetheless, the Nigerian market still has a scarcity of low-cost rooting sheets. In Nigeria, there are many distinct varieties of roofing sheets, as well as a variety of pricing. The cost of roofing a bungalow or home in Nigeria is or will be determined by the kind chosen, the quantity of the type chosen and the quality of the type chosen. 6. Labour The cost of roofing in Nigeria is also heavily influenced by the labour engaged on the job. Roofing professionals charge differently depending on their level of competence. Cost of Roofing a 4 Bedroom Bungalow The cost of a roof for a four-bedroom bungalow is determined by the criteria mentioned above. The length, width, and height of the roofing are crucial. The cost of roofing a four-bedroom cottage with stone coated roofing sheet is estimated to be between N1.5 million and N2 million, based on consultation and interviews. It costs roughly N1.5 million to roof a four-bedroom home or flat using aluminium zinc or roofing sheet. Cost of Roofing a 3 Bedrooms Bungalow Because all of the rooms are master suites, the modern three-bedroom bungalow now has more square metres. The cost of roofing a three-bedroom home using stone coated roofing sheets should be between N1.5 million and N1.8 million. Cost of Roofing 2 Bedroom Bungalow When stone coated roofing sheets are used, roofing a two-bedroom home costs roughly N1 million. Roofing a two-bedroom flat with aluminium roofing sheet costs between N750,000 and N800,000. However, if expensive and advanced roofing designs are used and installed, this could cost more. Cost of roofing a Duplex Roofing a duplex, regardless of its size, is expensive. This is due to the many designs that are commonly used in duplex construction. As a result, the building’s size and square metres increase. Roofing a modern 3 or 4 bedroom duplex in Nigeria will cost an average of N2 million to N3 million, depending on the type of roofing sheet chosen, according to reputable roofing specialists. When high-quality stone coated roofing sheets are utilised, it may exceed the amount specified above. Bottom Line Aside from the total budget mentioned above, it is crucial to remember that additional charges should be factored in because various situations may arise during the construction process. click here for building content: https://pwanmax.com/blog/2021/10/19/4-popular-types-of-building-foundations-in-nigeria/ 4 Likes |
