We use a Thai guy who has done all our work for our homes and businesses for more than 5 years, he would have to be the most reliable and honest person we have met here - he sticks to his price and his price is very good - and if he said he will turn up at 8am he will be there on time or before - his name is K. Meng and he is happy for me to post his telephone 08 1576 9150 in fact he was contracted by Pattaya Properties and other agents to do all their maintenance work
Can anyone recommend a good electrician in Bangkok? Actually Samut Prakan (Bang Phli) area. We are getting shocks from our shower which is not a good sign. I have a basic understanding of electrics but this problem comes and goes which doesn't help. Also there is no standard colour coding for the cables in my house! obviously the genius who wired it just used whatever cable he had left over in the back of his pickup. My live wires are a mix of black grey and whites, my return/negative wires are a mix of black, grey and white and the earths are mostly green and yellow but with a white one thrown in there just to make things interesting.
By the way if anyone is interested in knowing the name of the Company from which I bought my house please drop me a line and I will be willing to let you know so you can avoid them. They actually think that they are devoid of any responsibility because it was not them who actually built the house but subcontractors!!! They had a project manager and project engineer on site when the houses were being built, so my question is what the hel_l were they actually doing if not monitoring and signing off on the work of the subcontractors?
My favourite is the following:
After we moved into the house, once the first rainy season came we had a small stream running through our lounge from leaking windows. When we reported this to the office they said "oh, it was dry season when the house was built". Fair enough in itself but they actually expected us to just GO AWAY, once they told us the reason. Obviously we stayed and asked when they were going to fix it, they were actually quite shocked that we expected them to fix it as well!
The list goes on and on!
If anyone does know that electrician though I would be pleased to hear from you, I am ok with cold showers but my wife has quickly become accustomed to hot water!
