Standard Nigerian quantity surveying practice — six trade bills, each carried to a summary for the final contract sum.
Site clearance, excavation, hardcore filling, blinding concrete, foundation blockwork, DPC, anti-termite treatment, and German floor slab.
Blockwork (9-inch and 6-inch), structural columns, ring beams, window and door lintels, suspended slab, and staircase for multi-storey.
Timber wall plate, roof trusses, rafters, purlins, roofing sheets (aluminium, Aluzinc, or clay tiles), fascia boards, guttering, and PVC or plasterboard ceiling.
Plastering (internal and external), painting, ceramic or vitrified floor tiles, wall tiles (bathroom/kitchen), screeding, and ironmongery.
Cold water supply pipework, septic tank and soakaway, electrical wiring, consumer unit, light fittings, switches, and socket outlets.
Perimeter fence, gate, driveway, surface drains, and any other external site works relevant to your project.
All bills carried to a Summary page — subtotal, contingency, professional fees, VAT, and final contract sum.
Use our template or your own. Columns needed: item description, unit, quantity. Rate column can be blank.
Upload the .xlsx file and choose your project city. We apply the correct location multiplier to all rates.
The system matches each description to the Material Price Index. Review low-confidence matches and confirm or adjust.

The single most powerful document you can have before a construction project starts.
When all contractors price the same BoQ, you get like-for-like quotes. No more guessing why one contractor is ₦5M cheaper — you can see exactly where the difference lies.
A signed BoQ locks the scope. Any additional work must be agreed as a variation — protecting you from mid-build surprises and uncontrolled extra charges.
Monthly payments are certified against actual work done, measured against BoQ rates. You only pay for what has been built — not what the contractor claims.
Banks and mortgage lenders in Nigeria often require a detailed BoQ before releasing construction funds. Our PDF export meets professional quantity surveying standards.
