You see the house in this picture? I want to have pretty good guess how many meters of metcoppo roofing sheets will be enough to cover it.

I know. I can't know how many until the skeleton (woods) has been built and then the carpenter can measure it to determine how many roofing sheets I need to buy. I know that. They've told me.

But I also know that an experience eye, especially someone who's done many jobs like this one, can make a very close estimate of how many roofing sheets will be enough to roof the house in this picture. At the same height too.

So, what do you think? Please tell me if you have the experience.

Roofing sheet. 20- 24 bundles
Wood 400- 600k
Nails 100- 120 k
Additives 50k
Workmanship?

With current situation my answer is no

From my personal experience as an owner of 2 buildings, i would put it at an average of 300sqm +/- 20sqm

Thanks for your input. I don't think this type of zinc is sold by bundles like Cameron zinc. I think this type is sold by sqft or meters.

I can tell. Someone said 4 million. But what I'm really after is how much the roofing sheets alone will cost me. The reason I'm insisting on finding out is because the house I want to roof isn't new. I don't want a situation where I remove the old zincs, build the woods, and then run out of money for the roofing sheets. That'd be bad.

The last time I check the roofing sheet is around 120k/bundle

This year? Also, I didn't know they sell metcoppo by bundles.

Yes, not this type oooh, talking about Sumo this one will be way costly

Okay. That's what I thought. Someone said they sell this one 6k to 7k per meter. I'll go and price them sha.
