A typical price is the middle price, so a few very high or very low reports cannot move it. Reference figures are from a named published source, are marked as such, and are replaced as soon as enough people report. Open the full Price Board.

Questions people ask
What is the price of cement in Nigeria today?
The table on this page shows the typical price of a 50kg bag by brand, for the state you choose. It comes from recent price reports by different people, and is replaced by a clearly labelled published reference figure only where too few people have reported. Prices change often, so check the date shown.
Why do building material prices differ between states and markets?
Transport from the factory or depot, local demand, the cost of fuel and each market's own supply all change the price. The same bag of cement can cost noticeably more a few states away from the factory, which is why this page lets you pick your state and see the markets that report the lowest prices.
How are these prices worked out?
People across Nigeria, including verified Cordelia field agents, report the price they saw at a shop or market. A price shows only when at least 2 different people back it, and the page says how many reports it comes from. Nobody is named.
Why is a material or state missing a price?
It means fewer than 2 different people have reported it recently, so Cordelia does not publish it yet. You can help by adding a price you saw, or have an agent check a supplier for you.
Can I have a supplier's price checked in person?
Yes. With Ask the Market, you name the supplier and the item, and a verified Cordelia field agent visits, photographs the price and reports back. You pay per check from your wallet, and it is refunded if nobody answers.
How many blocks do I need for a wall?
As a rule of thumb, a wall needs about 10 blocks per square metre for a standard 450 x 225mm block (either 6 inch or 9 inch), before deducting windows and doors, plus about 5% for breakages. The estimator below does the sum for you.
How much cement does a concrete floor or slab need?
A common 1:2:4 mix needs roughly 6 to 7 bags of 50kg cement per cubic metre of concrete, with about 0.45 cubic metres of sharp sand and 0.9 cubic metres of granite. Treat it as a planning figure and confirm with your engineer or quantity surveyor.
Can I add a price I saw?
Yes. Anyone can join the Price Board for free and add what they saw, and the building materials index gets more accurate for everyone in that state.
