Thanks a lot man for taking time to respond from your seemingly busy schedule.

I completely agree with you on below points.
1. Hidden roof is more technical to build
2. Pitched/Sloped roof requires less maintenance
3. Hidden roof gives more aesthetic look

The hidden parapet wall roof is actually my personal preference but from all I have heard it is significant more expensive, so I am surprised to read the part in bold that it is indeed cheaper. This i will like to confirm.

Cheers
Its Simple! Pitched Roof Requires more Wood and and must be Stone coated, to Fit into this age and time. While hidden roof should be Aluminium Roofing sheet with almost half the wood Required for a Pitched roof.

Hello,
Good thread you got going here, very nice designs on show as well.
Observing your designs I can see you tend more towards the hidden roof design generally, more like a parapet wall roof in most cases.

My questions are;
1. What are the pros and cons of the parapet wall roof vs the monopitch (slopped) roof style or other standard styles out there? I am more interested in the comparison btw parapet walled roof & monopitch.

2. Any substantial cost difference btw those two designs mentioned above, assuming the same surface area is to be roofed?

Please feel free to add any other useful info.

Thanks
Hello Boss,

The thing about Hidden/Flat roof and Pitched Roof is Preference. Most CLients I work for just Tend to Prefer that Hidden Roof.

In terms of Pros and Cons, the Hidden Roof is Somewhat Cheaper, but A bit more Technical than the Pitch Roof. Also the Pitch is requires less Maintenance than the Hidden roof.

Note also in terms of Aesthetics, the looks depend on the client, as some Like the Pitch roof while other like the Hidden roof. But from my own Perspective, Though Both Roof styles are nice, I am Know that Hidden roof Buildings tend to look very unique and nice for a longer period of time than the Pitched Roof buildings, this is because lesser Buildings have Hidden roof so you don't see it too much to get too used to it.

Thanks

Please, will this include fittings, furniture etc for a complete ready to occupy house or just the structure?
How will areas like Ajah that is water logged affect this quote.
This includes total finish. Fittings, Cabinets wardrobe. Note Quality of finish determines what the exact figure is at the end as well as Other expenditures like Light Connections and Community Levies. Also Foundation type will depend on soil properties but that can't have too much significant effect on price as its a Give or take N3m Difference at the end.
