What is the price of Metcopo roofing sheets per metre in Nigeria in 2026?

As of April 2026, Metcopo aluminium roofing sheets cost ₦4,950–₦6,750 per linear metre (at 0.9m effective width) or ₦5,500–₦7,500 per m² at factory gate in Lagos. 0.45mm mill finish is at the lower end; 0.55mm colour-coated is at the upper end. A 3m sheet works out to approximately ₦14,850–₦20,250.

What is Metcopo roofing sheet used for in Nigeria?

Metcopo is most commonly used for churches, schools, warehouses, factories, hotels, and large commercial buildings in Nigeria. Its deep wide-rib profile allows longer unsupported rafter spans (up to 1.8m) than long span or step tile, reducing purlin costs on large roofs. It is also used for premium residential projects where a bold commercial aesthetic is desired.

Is Metcopo stronger than long span aluminium?

Yes — Metcopo is structurally stiffer due to its deeper rib profile. At the same gauge (e.g. 0.55mm), Metcopo can span up to 1.8m between purlins without significant deflection, compared to 1.2m for long span. This translates to fewer purlins needed per square metre of roof, which partially offsets Metcopo's higher sheet price on large projects.

How much does it cost to roof a large church with Metcopo in Nigeria?

A medium-sized church with 400–700 m² of roof would require approximately 498–872 sheets of 3m Metcopo. At 0.55mm colour-coated (₦18,900–₦20,250 per sheet), sheet cost alone is approximately ₦9.4m–₦17.7m. Add 15–20% for accessories, labour at ₦800,000–₦2,500,000, and delivery. A realistic total for a medium church roof in Lagos is ₦12m–₦25m depending on complexity.

Can Metcopo roofing sheets be used in residential homes?

Yes — Metcopo works well for residential homes that want a commercial, industrial, or contemporary aesthetic. It is popular for modern flat-roof-style duplexes and bungalows in some Lagos estates. The main trade-off vs step tile is appearance preference — Metcopo has a bolder, wider profile rather than the finer tile-like look of step tile.

Metcopo Roofing Sheet Price Per Metre Nigeria 2026

Current Price (April 2026): Metcopo roofing sheets cost ₦5,500 – ₦7,500 per m² at factory gate, Gods Promise Aluminium, Sango Ota. Per linear metre (0.9m effective width): ₦4,950 – ₦6,750/lm. WhatsApp 09150459964 for a written quote.

The Metcopo profile — also called wide-rib corrugated or Metcoppo in some markets — is the widest-spanning standard aluminium roofing profile available in Nigeria. Its deep, widely-spaced ribs make it structurally stiffer than long span or step tile, allowing for longer unsupported spans between purlins. This rigidity, combined with a bold commercial aesthetic, makes it the profile of choice for warehouses, churches, schools, hotels, and large-footprint buildings.

This guide covers the current factory price per metre, how to calculate total project cost, and how Metcopo compares to the alternatives.

What Makes Metcopo Different from Long Span and Step Tile?

Feature	Long Span	Step Tile	Metcopo
Profile depth	Shallow (18–25mm)	Medium (25–35mm)	Deep (38–55mm)
Rib spacing	Narrow, frequent	Medium	Wide (200–250mm)
Max rafter span (unsupported)	1.2m	1.2m	1.5 – 1.8m
Appearance	Simple corrugated	Tile-like	Bold commercial / industrial
Price per m² (0.45mm)	₦4,000 – ₦4,600	₦5,200 – ₦5,800	₦5,500 – ₦6,200
Price per m² (0.55mm)	₦5,800 – ₦6,500	₦6,500 – ₦7,200	₦6,800 – ₦7,500
Typical application	Residential bungalows	Estate duplexes	Commercial, churches, warehouses
Noise in heavy rain	High	Moderate	Moderate (mass dampens sound)

The wider rafter span capability of Metcopo means you can use fewer purlins on a large commercial roof — reducing timber costs and total project weight. On a 2,000 m² warehouse roof, the saving in purlins can offset a significant portion of the premium over long span sheets.
