You did not give me the direct contact of the distributor you only said you can give me his contact which i rejected immediately because i dont have any business with any distributor as i did not negotiate and pay to any distributor and you did not made mention of any distributor during negotiation and payment. So why are you bringing in the issue of distributor when it is time for you to refund me.

Do you know the delays/setback you have caused to my project with this your attitude.

Chekitaut:
bold letters: I am expecting refund of ₦2,160,000 from the major distributor till now, I made 1st batch delivery of 300bags from a friend order to him so not to delay work. I gave him direct contact to distributor he said no that is best he pass tru me that he did not know the person he knows me.

Thanks N3xt, below are my responses to narration;



1. 600 bags of cement (Lafarge) ordered 3 weeks ago

Yes i spoke with him on Wednesday 26th MAY that i needed 600 bags of Lafarge cement to be used for the plastering of my ongoing house project, and we agreed on 3600/bag delivery to site. He requested for full payment upfront which i said no problem due to trust, I made the payment the second day Thursday 27th MAY and he promised to deliver the cement (600 BAGS) on or before Monday 31st MAY. Herecomes 31st MAY he failed to deliver the cement and he started with excuses not until Thursday 3rd June before he was able to deliver 300 bags. I asked him i can see only 300 bags here and he said yes that he will deliver the remaining 300 bags the next day. I called him 3 days after the first delivery and he keeps telling me i will deliver tomorrow everytime, INFACT HE HAS TOLD ME ON TWO DIFFERENT TIMES THAT HE IS CURRENTLY DOING TRANSLOADING THAT HE WILL SOON REACH MY SITE BUT ATLAST IT WAS ALL LIES AS NO DELIVERY WAS MADE. THERE WAS A DAY I STILL CALLED HIM ABOUT THE DELIVERY HE TOLD ME HE WILL CALL ME BACK THAT THE GUYS SHOULD BE ON THERE WAY TO MY SITE FOR DELIVERY BUT I CANT SEE ANYTHING. So when i discovered that he was just playing on my intelligent regarding the delivery then i told him to refund me which he promised he will do the following but guess what he started story again and brought the issue of one distributor or the other which he did not tell me before he collected money. HE HAS PROMISED ME SEVERALLY THAT HE WILL PAY ME ON A PARTICULAR DATE BUT ALL TURNED OUT TO BE LIE.

2. Due to accessibility issue, the cement was delivered in batches. First batch 300 bags was delivered.
NB: He didn’t tell me you had an agreement to do it this way.


There is no where he made mention/we agreed of delivering the cement in batches. Regarding the site accessibility, this is just an excuse from him, he knows my site very well because he has delivered granite for me in the past and i still remind him not to bring long truck to my site because long truck can only enter the estate but can not enter my street inside the estate. Infact the first 30tons granite he brought for me he had to dump the granite at the entrance of my street which is like six houses to my site in the street because the truck is long. He then used the HOWO 30tons for second delivery which he dump to my site directly.

3. The 2nd installment was expected from a delivery made to another distributor he joined with to lift a truck.
However, due to the cost of transloading the cement he couldn’t take the cement. The truck was charging extra N250/bag from Ewekoro.


Reason why i said he is a liar, please ask him if he tells me anything about any distributor when we are negotiating, and when he requested for upfront payment, then why bringing in distributor issue when it is time to refund me.

4. The total amount involved in this transaction is N2,160,000. Breakdown below:

- Cost per bag = N3,600
- Cost of 300 bags delivered = N1,080,000
- Cost of 300 bags undelivered = N1,080,000
- Total Amount refunded so far = N700,000
This was made in 2 installments (N500k and N200k).

- Outstanding Balance = N380,000

YES VERY TRUE

5. He’s expecting the balance from the cement distributor he’s partnering on this and promised to pay back within the week.

I’ll plead with you to allow some time to sort this out. I’m in the same business and I can tell you cement ordering these days is a huge risk.
He didn’t deny the transaction. I hope you can give him a little more time to find an amicable resolve.

Seriously i didnt expect him to attach my payment to any distributor as no any distributor was made mention during negotiation and payment, it is when it is time for refund that he brought in distributor. Therefore, I have no business with any distributor. Since he has promised to pay within the week no problem the week is coming to an end, but he has promised me severally but still default. Hopefully this time he will fulfil his promise.

Yes bros, I don’t like calling out people on public forum like this one because it’s not part of me but I have been patient enough with Chekitaut. And I think the only language he understands now is to call him out.

I don’t go for cheap, I will rather wait till I have money that will be enough to get each stage of my project done than to engage cheap Engr. and labour.

KolaShangOne:
Alot of factors are involved though. Size of buildings, the "quantity of walls", quantity of concrete to chisel etc..

For this job, any competent work man will charge at least 1 million. Most likely more than that.
Alright sir, thank you.

All contributions appreciated, at least I have the idea now of what to expect

PropertiesRe: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Thenext: 7:48am On Jun 03, 2021

I really can’t say as this depends largely on many factors but I’d set aside 800k - N1m as labour charge for it.

I pay my guys something within that range.

Edit:

Thank you sir
Sorry I’m just seeing the 4 bedroom duplex part. I think you should be prepared to pay more but not more than 1.5m though.

When you get to the plastering of a house, many things are involved. The plastering charge is usually skill based, the more the skills, the more the charge. Another thing to consider is the scope of the plastering work planned. Is is the plastering of walls only or plastering with dressing of all corners, window dressing, door dressing, designs on walls, belts etc?
Just wall plastering and windows dressing only. For the skill, the bricklayer is highly skilled. I just want to have idea so as to help me in negotiation. Thank you sir

Thank you Oga spyder.

It's the very sa6m amount, BUT

You will have to pay those lifting blocks to take the blocks upstairs and drop for the masons and their boys to use and work upstairs. So the extra charge you will pay is just for block lifting.
