Tiles

In the beginning of March we went to the big material shop in Pattaya - Boonthavorn to buy all the needed floor and wall tiles, this exercises took almost the whole day.
After some days the tiles were delivered to the building site in a safe and good way. This is maybe the first time I have seen well packed, and securely strapped goods on a truck. They even used a crane to unload.
Different from the 4000+ tiles we got for the roof some days earlier. Not strapped and moved from the trucks to the ground by hand.





I have two pictures from the tile shop, the material here is not tree, it's concrete. 
Good way to avoid the termites but get the look.


What is the price on this?

Moving the Office

One of the first things that the team set up on the land was the small BIO (Building Inspector office). Now its time to dig here for the waste-water pipes and also the place where the parking should be set up. So the move was done this morning.

Roof - Part 2

The roof took three days. The put tiles both on the high roof and most part on the lower roof. They decided to wait with the part that is between the big and low part because the plastering work on the high wall could make the tiles very dirty and difficult to clean after. Another solution should have been covering the part, but that was not an option - they are the experts, so it's just to lean back and let them do what they want. Lats and lifting tiles. Some parts done Under the high roof Notice the security hooks and helmets (not?). Low roof Most ready now. The team will now wait for the plastering work on the outer walls on the high part and then its time to finishing up.

Arrival of the roof tiles

The roof tiles arrived today at 06.00 in the morning. No pallet, it looked like they have unloaded the truck manually. They delivered over 4000 tiles! One of the three piles of tiles delivered. Some broken due to the bad handling. Lintels in aluminum to hold the roof tiles. More lintels
