Welders use sunglasses, construction people wear flipflops, and big truck drivers take yaabaa. No way there is a store selling safety supplies in Thailand.? Excuse me but yes there is. There was place in store in the Mall right near Dong Muang (ZEER Rangsit) that sells safety supplies, industrial tools, electronic tools like Fluke and tons of other supplies like ear protectors, traffic cones, safety vest, construction helmets, you name it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwpage3 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Wonderful Thailand. You want to wonder why people do not think that these kinds of things can happen and when they do their is usually little to no recourse. Is he a condo owner and you a renter? If so might not get any resolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inThailand Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Hence why I live on the top floor corner unit. Many condo owners have a noise issue here because of substandard construction techniques. And not easy or cheap to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manic Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Foam ear plugs. Soft ones from the pharmacy. Use a lubricating gell to perfect the seal. I use this system and have worked on oil wells and airbases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soistalker Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 Ear plugs make my ears not hear well for hours after; I have ear issues. It's not a good option. He said he is the owner. And he is here irregularly, so I think he comes and goes from farangland. But when he is here, I sure know he's back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cereal Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 This is the number one reason why I would never buy a condo. I'd really like the comforts of not having yard work and potentially a swimming pool and gym in the building, but the downside is the OP's story. And that is far too common for my liking. I built my wife and I a house, my neighbours are not a problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what prices are like now, but years ago when I was looking around for property, a one bedroom condo in a decent looking development cost significantly more than you could get a small house with garden on the dark side. Works fine for me, but some prefer to be in the city. With the improvements to Sukhumvit, I'm 10 minutes from Soi Buakau. House cost 3.2 m a few months ago. Best gated estate I've seen in Pattaya. 3 beds, 4 aircon, 2 bathrooms and a state of the art kitchen which I had installed at extra cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to the stage that I knew that this house would be my last and my wife has done enough to deserve the house in the event of , so I bought. Not for everyone. Also rented an identical house on the same estate for 16k/ month. Probably the preferred option for most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideal if you want to be in the city centre and like good views. At the same time I've seen a lot of people living in houses at ground floor in Bangkok dealing with regular flooding problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
