Know of a few , Some Thai owned /managed , some foreign. Worked with most of them for a quite a few years now through my buisiness. One of them is based out of Rawai , can send some contact details if it helps then you can decide for yourself . Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app
June 11, 201411 yr I wouldn't give much thought to using a foreign builder. Remember that Thai's still do all the work. My house is proof. I had a foreign builder. He had 1 guy that was really good. The rest were your average Thai. I have electical and plumbing problems. Lousy floor laying (granite) and roof leaks.

June 12, 201411 yr One thing in the industry, is that good builders generally have a backlog. There are some good builders, then there are a lot of crap builders. The good ones I talk to say they have two or three projects waiting, while some builders will just go out and hire more labourers for the next job (your job) so he doesn't lose the sale.
