all pipes ( both round and square mild steel) comes in 18feet per length but they have different thickness (also black and China white)which determines the price

Thanks for your detailed explanations, there are buglarary irons there already installed, I will prefer either tower or nigalex with netting, please what is the difference between reflective and nonreflective and I want the projected type, thanks for your time.
you are most welcome sir, reflective glasses means when you are inside the house, someone from outside will not be able to see you, but you can see them clearly, those who are looking at the glass from outside will be seeing themselves like they are looking at the mirror, but non reflective is like ordinary glasses, those outside can see inside and those inside can see people outside, this glasses are now outdated actually people don't use that anymore expect for special cases or purposes, reflective glasses is better sir.

@nio68 hello sir, Berger paint is good but very expensive, you may want to visit their office at 102 oba akran, opposite Guinness Nigeria or wait for painters in the house to contribute their own quota.

I believe this post is for Oga @adeneti

But just to chip in one or two things concerning the discussion so that people will not be misinformed. Although i also do business on Nairaland and I'm not trying to block anyone's business but it seems @adeneti is right.

Oga @Adedward, the truth is there is no way a 4x4 (1200mm x 1200mm) aluminium casement window using Original Tower materials will cost you 28,000 with installation. Attached is a waybill of materials I bought last year directly from Tower Aluminium and each unit of our 4x4 window cost us about 47,000 or so..

The purpose of this is to inform the people who don't know the difference between China (light and thick) profiles and Tower profile. If you quote 28,000 for a Client another contractor quotes 48,000 naira the client would think the other person is trying to cheat him.

All I'm saying is, be truthful with the material you want to use. There is nothing like "Tower standard". If you don't buy from Tower, it is not Tower.

This same thing happens in roofing. For example, Some people quote 0.45mm "Tower standard" for house owners for 1200 whereas Tower sells for about 1700 direct from the Factory. So how did they get their own for 1200? Some clients would even call me thief because they don't know the difference.

I've been doing business here for many years and One thing my clients know is you always get what is agreed on. So, Oga, try to make your advert very sincere.
I always disagree with u sir, the prices u doing urs is different to my, how much ur are buying ur decurve let start from there Oga, and how many decurve and higt with weight we finished 4*4 casement tower, let's do small working here, since am not correct, this opened business sir thanks

I really didnt want to get involved in this discussion before.
I did use Tower in my project and I know how much it cost but not 28k for 4x4, but I am not disputting your claim. May be you have a way of getting the materials cheaper than others.
Even some imported good aluminium cost more than that.
But then, I only always make casement windows; I have never used slide windows in any of my build.
But I do agree with the explanation Kola gave without calling you a liar or try to spoil your business.

I have supplied terrace houses for sale both in lagos and abuja and the price is reasonable and competitive. Most importantly, the quality is competitive and meets international standard because international (imported) materials are used.
Here is a link to a thread on an estate I supplied in abuja:

I supplied several in lagos but didn't get permission to use the pictures for advert but I have the pictures.

mountmoriah:


First is the installation Problem, if you use unprofessional and bad installers you will have leakages

Second point is the gauge, my advice, use 0.55 gauge for either stepped tiles or metcop because of their corrugating designs


Third, the machines use in corrugating the aluminum, some aluminum company corrugating machines are bad, and they will use it to corrugate for you any way.

Bottom line; if you get 0.70mm guage for unprofessional installers, they will mess up your roofing sheets, it will look rough and leak water, my advice is that don't use 0.45mm for stepped tiles and Metcopo, 0.45mm gauge is only good for long span, metral or normal design, get professional aluminum installers, we charge only just N150 per square meter to one install your either long span, stepped tiles and metcopo, and N170 per square meter for stone coated.

Long span 0.45mm today price N1, 120

Long span 0.55mm today price N1, 570

Stepped Tiles 0.55mm today price N1, 700

Metcopo 0.55mm today price N1, 800


Stone coated (Bond N2, 350)

Stone coated (Shingle N2, 450)

Stone coated (Milano N2, 500)



Are the price listed for the Lagos area?
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by abdulwastecx(m): 11:07am On Jan 23, 2019
KolaShangOne:


Standard price should be between 25,000 - 30,000.

I don't think there is a standard price. It depends on the structural designs, things like the section of beams, slab thickness, the diameter of reinforcement, grade of concretes and so many other variables that can only be gotten from a detail structural design

No sir, throughout Nigeria expect for transport that will be different since you are ordering from Lagos, if you taking it to abuja from Lagos the transport will be different from Lagos to Ibadan.

I am being to show interest in the product you are marketing especially the long span roofing sheets. My concern however is that your account is NEW.

Can you dispel this fear?
