PropertiesRe: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by eros(m): 9:44pm On Nov 22, 2011
steo:
@Eros,

I am currently buying a length of 16mm for N2,400, 12mm N1,400 and 10mm N1,100 around. The last time I bought in tons for my decking (July 11), 16 & 12mm was N126,000 and 10mm N110,000.

Hope that helps
Thanks Steo for the heads up. With this amount, I can bargain better when I get to the market. The other challenge I might have is recognizing the original imported iron rod.

Is there any particular difference between the imported and locally made iron rods?

@Eros, what are you using tons of iron rod for when you are not building a duplex. I really don't know. Iron rods should be cheaper in Iwo road but I can't say how much they'll sell but definitely not N150k. It should be lesser than N135k. I've never bought 16mm more than 2,400 in the last 2 years.
Thanks for the insight. I perceived there was something wrong with the pricing, moreso, the Welder was too generous to a fault, unlike the typical Ibadan man who always wants to rip you off because they always assume you have more money, so they deserve a share of what you got ( No insult intended to honest Ibadan indigenes).

Anyways, I still got 2 other Welders who will be giving me their quotation, obviously the man with the best price gets the job. Thanks again for the insight.

@ Spyder880, Nexthome and every other person who has purchased iron rod in the past, please i need the market price for the following:

I got this quotation from my iron bender today for the lintel level:

1. 10 mm - 165,000 for 1 Ton

2. 12 mm - 150,000 for 1 Ton

3. 16 mm - 3,200    for 4 lenght

4. Binding wire - 5,000

Now i just noticed that himself and the seller might have just got their figures wrong. How can 10 mm sell for 165k and 12 mm sell for 150k. Please guys help me out here with the accurate pricing.

Quoted Price from the company supplied my roofing sheets.

0.35 (N770 - N800)
0.45 (N950)
0.55 (N1,050)

My installer charges N5k per day and he's from ____City (the company that roof Shoprite). The company that supplies the materials is opposite Mangoro Bus Stop, Lagos.
Please do you have an idea of how much it cost per square metre for the stone coated roofing sheet?

Coming from a guru like you . . . So honored.

The machine was Pre-Order for one and only Piedpipper of Nairaland, so not for sale . . . But to get you something similar, see us in the chamber, cos you are too big to discuss your price in the open air.
You Sir, will be hearing from us very soon, the company directors have still not decided whether to preorder or not.
CrimeRe: Chxta's Horrible Experience: Robbed, Beaten, Tied-Up, Dumped by eros(m): 4:48pm On Nov 22, 2011
Nwanze's landlord, Alhaji Abiola Sani, had reported the presence of robbers in the area to the Lagos State Rapid Response Squad, but no one came for hours. Eventually, some policemen from the Ojodu police station arrived but by that time, the robbers were nowhere to be found. The police left after concluding that the robbers had gone. No sooner had the police departed than the robbers reemerged and began firing at Alhaji Sani's residence. They emptied entire magazines on the place and in the process, Alhaji Sani's wife was hit in the arm.
From the quote above the police is obviously involved in this robbery, but then who will investigate and prosecute these thieving bast.ards  huh huh huh angry angry angry

@NL1960, all you require is understanding of simple geometry. Most of the so-called roofers give estimates based on assumption.

I really don't have time to go into details now but what I used to roof my house will be shocking to many people on Nairaland.

One thing I want you to know is that professional roofers in the aluminium company charges N5,000 per day. Except your house is triple the size of mine, your accessories shouldn't cost more than N15k.

The cost of roofing the section of the building shown in the picture plus wall cladding is less than N250k plus installation, accessories, transport, flashing, ridges, eave angles etc.
Note: the cost is for the back section alone


The initial quote I got is almost N2m for the woodwork and roofing of the whole house. But what I eventually spent is a little less than N1.1m
Please and please can you make out time to post a detailed information on the pricing of the wood work and roofing. Alot of us will gain immensely from it.
