Just wondering if anyone In BKK has had a wooden floor installed. A tradesman in our new condo has done a few in the building with excellent craftsmanship and his charge is 600bht/sqm and I supply the wood. Any one advise if this is an acceptable price as I wouldn't have a clue.

Usual is around 350/500 psqm. But if you have seen his work and it is very good, then perhaps worth the little extra rather than getting an unknown.

My thoughts as well . Think I will try 500 and see what happens but will go with 600 if i have to. Thanks for your help Mirrisitable

looking for more advice. Have agreed on 550 bht/sqm and apart from the labour does the floor man provide anything else? Apart from the wood am I expected to pay for all glues varnishes as he has quoted me an extra 12000bht for those. He also quoted me an extra 8250 bht for 55m of skirting board ( just labour) which seems odd as I would be providing the wood and glue for that as well.

Lol...starting to get expensive now.

Our labourers provided all the requirements except the wood. So I think even though you got a 50b discount psqm, he is now making it up in other ways big time.

Thanks I started to get that feeling and he hit me up for more extras yesterday so I told him to stop F ing wasting my time and the silly part is he lost a good job when he got too greedy. Im cranky because he really did waste my time and I ordered the wood and Im away tomorrow for 3 weeks and haven't got time to find another tradesman, anyway Im back on the look out again......

Where is the site...bkk or upcountry ?

I could recommend the people that did my place, but they have not finished yet and would want to see the quality of their finish before I recommend them to anyone.

You could have a look at the finished floor to see if you like it when done, will be finished when you return in 3 weeks...in Bkk.

Also how many square meters as this will effect price, small job more expensive etc.

Thanks very much for that Im in Bkk. I got 70sqm

The wood is on order at 730bht/ sqm

Size and type of wood...I will at least ask the guys for a price for you just out of interest.

14cmx 1m but I dont know the name however it seems to be the "standard type" on display at the wood factories . Its nothing exotic but I will try and find out. Much appreciated for your help and by the way the tradesman kindly offered to supply the same wood at 1100 bht/sqm. Not a bad mark up of 370 bht/sqm x 70= 22400 bht
