Sorry Oga mi, I am not on ground now and won't be for few more months... and I know EgunMogaji just don't want to hear about Lagos except Muritala Mohammed Airport. So I hope those who are home and reading this can help us do the leg work.

Steptiles and Metcopo are made from the same aluminium, it's just a different style or design.
I bought imported because with the recent price rise, both Tower and First Aluminium are too much for me.
They both want something like N2,300 for 0.55mm Metcoppo and Longspan is about N1,800 per sqm.
So I opted for imported version: Metcoppo N1,700, Steptiles N1,600, Longspan N,1500 from http://www.jonytechaluminium.com/
My brother went directly to their factory. I am not sure if the price has changed now sha...

Current price, l dont know.

But l have read on this thread about how even Companies like Tower, First Aluminium and others have reduced the correct thickness, of their products, just like those Petrol marketers reduce the discharge rate of their Fuel Pump!

Wherever you go to buy, preferably at the Company, go with your Digital Caliper, like the one l just took the picture for you right now.
If they are cheating you, at least you will know and bargain price based on that on go for a higher thickness that falls down to your desired thickness.

Strategic reasoning begets solutions to problems that may be encountered during construction.
Let's get to discussing them.
DEALS :
1) Building plan :
I love deals. I could wait for as long for a deal. Let's start with architectural designs especially the
3d. The current price in the market for 3d drawings is
a) Standard bungalow - from #130,000
b) Duplex - from #200,000
c) One storey - from #150,000
d) Two Storey - from #200,000
e) Commercial building- from #250,000
Well, in my course of study I got to know a company that does 2d and 3d building prototypes designed with the most powerful software in design and simulation. I just wait for them on their promo price. It goes for #50,000. At least, I will save at least #100,000 on building plan drawing which has all the relevant structural, engineering, electrical and plumbing drawings, all signed and stamped.

2) Cement:
I also love the deals I get here. I have in the past known that no matter how expensive things become, there are some dealers that will certainly give you a freebie, especially for bulk purchasing . So here, assuming a bag of cement costs N1,500. A trailer load of 600 bags will amount to N900,000. If you buy 600 bags of cement, you will need to pay for transportation to your site at the rate of #50 or more for a bag. So transportation will amount to #30,000. I haven't also factored in offloading costs. The company will not charge for transportation and offloading to site. So you save at least #30,000.
3) Rods:
Since we know that no private building can take up the quantity required as bulk purchase here, our promise on this is minimal. So we find a supply to your site anywhere at the same retail price in your vicinity and no added transport cost.

4) Blocks:
The current prices of 6" and 9" blocks is N120 / N140. The problem remains that the quality of those roadside blocks is nothing to write home about. I know a deal that gives me N110/N120 and when I throw down the blocks, they don't break or crack. I am sure of what they produce. For a house that requires 4,000 blocks, one saves N80,000.
5) Wood/ Boards :
This is the beautiful part. We go spending money buying planks for lintel and decking. Usually these planks don't come cheap and sometimes because we don't know the different types of wood. We are oftentimes tricked into buying wood that once exposed for a few days, loses form. It's either bent or cracked. And one loses money repurchasing wood. For a moderate duplex, one can buy wood of about N600,000 - N700,000. But our deal gets us all the boards for rent within a limited time for N150,000. You'd bet how much you'd save.

I will certainly continue with the series soon. Have a beautiful day

More about the Metcoppo roofing sheets, from our ongoing roofing work.... http://amazingviewpoints..com.ng/

adeekiti:
Some company can sell 0.45mm Longspan @#1,150psqm,#1,050, #1,100 but for metcoppo is expensive than Longspan, their prices depends on companies producing them and their some that fades off quickly..

Oga sako28,

The windshield is always at the front. I've moved on. I'm not the one to beg. I'm not the one bringing the issue here. The one who brought it prefer to be addressed here and not through other platform which we've tried and has failed.

Trust me, 99% of decisions on Nairaland property are made based on errors because we do not know the truth.

Whoever had issues with me should come to NextHome Official Address at Suite H52, Ikota Shopping Complex, off Lekki/Epe expressway to air their complaints and not every thread where I contribute. I'll always defend the lies.

Sulking is something I thought children do and not adults.

Ok sir, Noted God Bless u

mufutau55:
Whoever did the block work on the first floor did the wrong job... the pillar was there after the decking slab...
If Brabus was fired after the decking slab (as he claimed), then the person who did the upper floor is in the wrong.
But every boo-boo until the decking slab belongs to Brabus... for supplying the labor and supervision... regardless of wheiter
the Client supply the materials or not. And is it a general practice for the hollow blocks be filled with cement bags? Not with/for me.
