Thai Chi Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 With the amount of construction going on in Buriram, you will be lucky to get a good building crew at the moment. Possibly not even a second rate crew. The one crew I have used on 3 previous occasions are not available this year to do a small side of house extension !!!! On a side note ...... about 3 years ago my Wife had her parents house rebuilt. I offered my time and vehicle to help, but was told (nicely) that I was not to be involved at all. When I asked why not Wife said "money up if you go to building merchant" and "money up if building boss knows you are involved" You may possibly find some local contacts by asking the same question on a Buriram specific website. The one that the Expats use. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just having a chat today with a local biz owner and guy who has built a lot for his own biz here in Buriram and he was saying the same thing. Good news is right now I am not in a hurry and best to wait a year or two while they are building every where or at least until I meet someone who isn't swamped with biz. Good reply thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
