What is a flat roof?

Flat roofs are typically more accessible than roofs that are sloped. They are easier to climb for proper inspection
Any time a person climbs on a roof, care and caution should be taken, please note this.

Flat roofs are easier to check and much safer. Flat roofs are substantially more stable than gamble or hip roofs when the building is small or big.
They have an architectural appeal. In the right setting, they are economical as long as they are adequately maintained. Because flat roofs are quicker to install, the wait to move in is shorter. If repairs or replacement are needed down the road, re-roofing is relatively painless and quick
Flat roofs are not the most attractive roof in world, but you will save on cost of materials and that money you save can be used for plumbing or electrical on your building project, nevertheless the price of flat roof repair is also cheaper, the roofing material required for covering, such as asbestos, long span, stepped tiles, metocopo or stones coated is less compare to hip roof, gamble roof, mansard roof, e.t.c

Flat roofs are among the most controversial roofs of all the types of roofs for buildings and homes, both in commercial buildings or residential buildings.

Of recent, we all we notice that half of the commercial and residential building in lekki, ajah, ibeju, Elerangbe are emulating the act of saving cost by using flat roof, even banks or factory or estates now use flat roof, it also have a modernize aesthetic designs to your building that give value to the money spend from foundation of your building to the painting of your building.

Advantages
The biggest advantage of a flat roof is the expense.
From building and installing to the materials commonly used for flat roofs, they are relatively cheap, you will save much on hardwoods, nails, and aluminum or stones coated roofing to cover the roofing carcass these makes a flat roof very affordable for both installation and upkeep and maintenance.
Labor is cheaper due to less risk while installing a flat roof.
Installation of flat roofs is quicker and easier for instants, for construct a 3bedroom or 4-bedroom flat roof is just 2 days with just four carpenters, not like hip roof, gamble roof or mansard roof, there are fewer damage and repair costs over the lifespan of the roof. Installing things like solar panels, which save on electricity, and satellites—making repairs and cleaning gutters less expensive and easier to accomplish on flat roofs.

The second advantage is space can be used for other purposes. Air conditioning units can be put on the roof instead of the ground. Flat roof solar racking installed on a flat roof is less evident from the ground than a sloped roof.

You can design a living roof that becomes an outdoor lounge area to relax or barbecue, or plant a garden on the rooftop. The list of possibilities for utilizing a flat roof is nearly endless.

A flat roof also makes interior space more versatile. Top floor apartments and finished attics are possibilities without the sloped walls produced by traditional pitched roofs. In homes that need maximum interior space, flat

dam4sam:
Your question needs some more specifics, to get good and reliable response.

For example:
What is the Tonnage of Granite quoted for 95K? Same thing with Sharp Sand?
- Ask a User her called @Chekitaut or read his previous post on this thread, for Cost of Granite and Sand
- What is the tonnage or Tipper size of Granite he is quoting for #95K?
What is the type of Soil you are building on, (Swampy, Loamy/Soft, Valley, Hard Ground) to justify 35 Trips of Filling?

- Are you using Laterite to Fill or Sharp Sand? (Sharp Sand is better in a Wet area/ground) and what tonnage is he quoting for that Price?
- If you are buying as much as 150Bags of Cement, why cant you Order it directly from the Manufacturers like Dangote, you will get it at around #2,800 plus or minus. That Price of #3,300 is December Price.

- For Planks, talk to @MountMoriah guy on this thread, he will supply you and you can pay on delivery.
- What is the size of your Foundation (How many Boards, what is the dimension, can you share your Floor Plan or measure it yourself and state it here?), to get a better idea
- Packing of Filling can be negotiated down to #4,000 per Trip since they are packing many Trips
- Which is Hoes again? Are you Cultivating Cassava or Building a Foundation? I cant figure that one out, just cancel it

- What is the “machine” for and what Machine is he referring to?
If it is a Ramming machine, then you need to cut down on the Price of Rammer, moreover, it does not cost #50K to rent one Rammer in a day.
Budget 25K for manual Ramming and same for using a Ramming machine but allow time for the Soil to settle properly before doing the German Floor, Wet it very well.
- Labour Cost of Casting will depend largely on the Size of your Foundation though an average Price of 120K -+ max should do (looking at Ten Carriers, One Ewe, One Engine Operator, etc)
- Carpenter should be negotiated down to #30K Max, it cant be more than 2days work naah?

My advice, talk to QSFemi, he is a reliable and he will save you a lot of Money, when it comes to budgeting for your Build

Overall, you need to state your specific location because Labour and Material prices are also affected by Location.

Dont be discouraged.

godquality:
I received the below estimate to roof my building and would like to get the opinion of the experts in the house.

Aluminium roofing sheet 550mtr
Flat sheet 68 MTR
Accessories for #30k

My questions are;
What's the average price of the 0.42 and 0.55mm roofing sheets?
And is 68mtr length of flat sheet price the same as that of the roofing sheets?
Lastly what do you think about the accessories price of 30k given to me fair or not?

Am still waiting for the carpenter to provide me the estimate for the materials needed for the wooden part so might be updating this later with more questions.

I can supply you hardwood, we accept payment on delivery, if you don't know the quantity of woods you will need, I can give you the estimate numbers of woods you will need, if you can provide the drawing of the house or the length and breadth of the building.

you need to be specific, because we have Long Span, Stepped tiles, Metcoppo aluminum roofing sheets in the market for now with different prices

Long Span
Bozac Material
0.40mm gauge @N1, 850

0.45mm gauge @N2, 000

0.50mm gauge @N2, 450

0.55mm gauge @N2, 700

Stepped Tiles
0.40mm gauge @N1, 950

0.45mm gauge @N2, 100

0.50mm gauge @N2, 600

0.55mm gauge @N2, 850

Metcoppo
0.40mm gauge @N2, 100

0,45mm gauge @N2, 200

0.50mm gauge @N2, 700

0.55mm gauge @N2, 950

But my own advice is that you should allow the wooden carcass to be done, it will allow the roofers to take accurate measurement of the roof, to get the exactly aluminum materials needed for the eave angle, bottom angles, ridges, wall trimmers (if you don't have a parapet) facial cover, valley gutters, and the roofing sheets.

I would like to give feedback on my transaction with mountmoriah regarding the woods i bought from him yesterday. I saw his post here on nairaland that he is into wood business, lo and behold his post came at the right time that i needed to make a final decision on who to supply me my decking woods. I contacted him via whatsapp and he responded within a seconds and we finalised the deal within 30 miunutes. I linked him with my Engr. for further discussions and both agreed to go on with supply within 5 minutes. Mountmoriah supplied my Engr with 1by12(600 pieces) and 2by3(300 pieces) the following day, the woods are very good and very complete. Mountmoriah has been one of the best supplier (if not best) in term of responds to customers and sticking to agreement. Please kindly patronize him for your wood supply
