I have some suspended ceilings that need replacing. Can anyone recommend a builder who has done this kind of work?

Any help gratefully appreciated.

On the road to Doi Saket about 200 meters past the Super Highway on the left is a shop that does aluminum windows, you will see the materials for them. They also do ceilings and did a good one for me. Street number 408/2 phone 053 491 058. Owner speaks enough English. It is before you get to the next ring road.

I just read the Topic Title and thought you were looking for a Suspended Builder.

Thanks Semper, much appreciated. It is a bit far from me and the travel might put them off. I am out towards Hang Dong. But it there are no closer recommendations I will see if they can help.

That is why I gave you the phone number, i.e. so nobody had to travel before sorting it out.

Anyway, Good luck Milton. Get the book of what where and how, it has ceiling contractors listed.

Thank you Dante.

Regarding the distance I think you may have misunderstood me. In my experience Thai contractors are reluctant too far for jobs rather than being a problem for me.

Anyway thank you for your help I will give them a call.

Fluck me sideways.. And I consider myself happy when I can find a builder who can speak passable Thai, and won't hold my epic Google Sketchup drawings upside down.

If he then also knows a spirit level apart from a spirit bottle then I'm ready to propose marriage.
