The next in line is the installation of pvc ceilings.A lot of options came to mind about the type and brand to use, i had the option of using several China pvc with various thickness but i came to discover that in the long run, they all either loose colour or submit to heat. After several consultations far and wide, it became obvious and confirmed that just as Nigeria is a household name in electrical cable, so is she in pvc ceilings. I eventually settled for AMOULA (PARAGON) BRAND OF PVC CEILINGS. Unlike other average ones that goes for between #550 and #700 per strip, it actually sells for #1300 per strip. The quality however is second to non as it is made of a stronger material to make it stand the test of time.

55 strips of cedar double @ #1300 = #71,500
55 strips light wood double @ #1300 = #71,500
10 pcs H-clips @ #300 = #3000
50 pcs U-clips @ #300 = #15000
Total = #161,000
VAT OF 5% = #8050
TOTAL = #169050

kkokoma: Thanks for sharing your building journey. I am building a four bedroom bungalow and I am the roofing stage. what is the square metre of your roof dimension and what other accessories did you need to buy apart form the aluminium itself?. Thanks

Roofing sheet coverage = 320m
Ceiling cladding = 60m
Fascial cladding = 42m
Flat sheet = 50m

Any accessories you ned to buy will be sold to u there and they are: drive screw complete
Seam bolt complete
River nails
Copper nails
Silicon tube
Flash band.
Flash band is required cos there is 70% chance of mistake made when nailing the aluminium thereby creating leakages in the aluminium. You need to seriously take note of this so it doesn't spoil ur house due to leakages during rainy season. The flash band blocks these holes. The quantity os accessories required will however depend on the measurement of your roof, particularly the king pole. The higher the king pole, the more materials required, but the higher, the better smiley
