Can you screenshot the roof design plan with dimensions to check the estimated area of the roof.

The carpenter should be able to sketch one if you don't have an existing architectural drawings.

I'm doing just normal roofing and about the dimensions the sketch building plan is with the site engineer, I was only thinking 422 square meter seems much coz most meters I'm seeing for 3 bedroom is 300 square meter and below

What is the length and breath of the building?

The carpenter na robber...he wan use roof im own house.

Well, based on my experience on civil engineering field, you can't arrive at the conclusion if you don't have the building plan or the roofing plan. The roofing plan determines alot when it comes to this.

The only advise I can give is to tell your engineer to get more quote for the roofing from different carpenters, compare the price, get the materials by yourself and call the carpenter for the work.

Good day my fellow nairalanders and building expert,

I want the building expect in the house to kindly help me look into this roofing quotation given to me by a carpenter for my 3 bedrooms bungalow, (just 3 bedrooms all ensuit with small laundry room and toilet).

Note : the quotation is with aluminum parapet.

I intend using metcopo aluminum sheet, I told the carpenter already I don't want extreme tall roofing just normal coz the building is high on its own cuz it's 3 couches after the lintel.

Kindly comment if you've experience in building also. Thanks as you contribute

the woodwork part is really over quoted for 3bedroom.thats what you got when you gave it all to the carpenter..some of them like to over quote for there benefit ...I'll like to know the assure square meter of the building or send me the building roofingplan then I'll tell you all you needs.

location matters sir

yes I know but In terms of quality,dependable goods and professional services in other to get the best I think it doesn't matter cos all you need is good job and to save cost.
location:osun

Please do, it will be much easier for the quantity surveyor to review the quote with the plan.

Your evaluation and reactions will be highly appreciated

I'll suggest you get quotes from 2 more carpenters to compare price.
Also someone above asked for the length and breath of the building, because the shape of the house matters a lot in roofing. I did something similar last year at I gulped 1.8m.

Your Site Engineer too can advise.
