Today, I purchased 25 Tons granite for my upper floor lintel and parapet cast.
Site is in Ebonyi State.

I sent my Engr. to the Quarry because of the belief that the drivers whom we entrust the entire purchase on often cheats. Fortunately, he went on Wednesday and was told that the price is ₦13,700/ton and the price will be reviewed starting from today to ₦15,700/ton. We luckily made payment yesterday and took delivery today. As at yesterday, the queue was much and they concentrated on Setraco Trucks.

We were also told that the 10 tyres tipper can not carry 30 tons and was advised to go for 28 tons. Due to the price at hand, I decided to buy 25 tons and its the best decision because I doubt the truck could have carried 28 tons.

Total cost:

Granite = ₦13,700/ton x 25 = ₦342,000
Government Toll = Flat Rate = ₦7,000
Transportation = N100,000
Total = ₦449,500

I think drivers are the biggest beneficiaries of this business. Because the distance is not too far yet they charged ₦100k.

I gave my Engr. N5k for Transport.

What was the destination from quarry to your site since is same Ebonyi for the transportation fee of 100k ?

Did you make any savings doing it this way than paying outright to a driver?
What's was your major motivation? Accurate stone quantity or savings or both...cheers

Well, googles estimate of the distance is 20km and expects the time taken to reach the town to be 20mins from the quarry to the site's location. Lets even say 25km. I think the cost of transport is high.

Overall, I think I saved money buying before their price increment and also getting the correct quantity. Previously, I give the driver money for 30 tons and he will probably buy either 20 tons or 22 tons.

Guys, I've been afraid to do my electrical ever since I got this quote from my electrician. Please someone should help me check these. My house is 3 bedroom bungalow with 4 toilets.

Are these materials too much? Can anyone supply me original and complete cable with warranty at cheaper rate? I'm in abuja

Just negotiate to what you can afford.

Goodluck

- The number of coils is suspect.
- Original cable is available for purchase from authorised distributors in Abuja.
- The price quoted is on the low spectrum so you need to find out the name of the brand and decide if you are comfortable with it.

Way too much IN MY OPINION.

I say this having 2 things on mind.

1. My house is a duplex and I didn't buy this much
2. My electrical Engr did an estimate for another duplex recently and he didn't get this much cables (pls don't ask me to link him to you, he's not available)

3. 16mm is run from your meter to the DB - how far is that distance to require 2 coils (yes he needs red and black but a fraction of 1 is OK - not the full coil) eg you might need half of red and half of black.

My comments are based on the 3 above - still seek advice from another electrical expert.

Goodluck

E fit be say he still dey quote to wire him intellectual property as he dey work

The reason this stuff is inflated is, the electrician plans to get the workmanship you will not agree to pay via wire .

Thank you for the response...Complete quantity beating price hike ~ at least peace of mind...extra savings with transportation cost would have made it even worthwhile....cheers
