Mine was same. PHCN guy came with the Meter and installed it on the balcony/verandah with cable from the pole. Prepaid meter.

Hajji M.
That should be the standard procedure but l don't know if Phcn has Supervisors that carry out routine checks on installed meters to consumers because if they do, I think the once we are seeing mounted on poles should be removed and installed properly but twinskenny confirmed that Phcn installed the once he posted on here which brings me back to the issue of thorough supervision by either the metering company or Phcn themselves sad

We can build for you. And we are not expensive at all.

1) If you have a plan already, you can post it or send it to my mail.
2) what is your taste? Do you want P.O.P or P.V.C.? Do u want 'German floor or not? Do you want to use parapet? Do u want stone coated tiles or Longspan? Fence? Talk to your

With my own plan of a not too elaborate building and finishing, it will cost you about 6 million.

Quick question Sir...

Recently I found out that the price of longspan from Agen Aluminium (Benin city) is a lil bit more or about same price as that of the stone coated tiles advertised here on nairaland. e.g

0.55mm Long span at Agen is 2850 naira while stone coated advertised here on nl ranges from 2k to 2800naira....As a layman i dont quite get how an imported product (supposedly og higher quality) is cheaper or about same price as a product produced locally. if then why do people then buy longspan at such prices and not use stone coated or why do Q.S use long span when you tell them moderate finishing but the prices re about same.

is it the way they re quoted (square metres and metres)? I m just curious...Can you or anyone else please explain this?

Thanks

C.

Edit

Aside the woodwork which is much for the stonecoated any other plausible reason or am I missing something.

Well i feel the quality of materials definitely affect the overall price so maybe those at Benin are of higher quality. Also the amount of gain different marketers/companies want to make for selling their individual products differs. The cost and source at which they import their products also differs plus over time its been known that there are reasonable price difference between cost of materials in Lagos and that of Benin. Lastly i bet there's more competition in Lagos cos of larger number of marketers/companies selling same goods than the number of companies you have at Benin so this competition will definitely bring about drop in prices.
