nokia Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 A few months ago, i paid 2K baht to install three ceiling fans (including drilling, installing new electrical wires & switches). Cost was 500b for each fan plus 300b for materials, 200b for goodwill(done by neighbour's brother). Price quoted by HomePro was 500b per fan without materials. Did i overpay for 6 hours of work, considering min wage is only 200b/day? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary A Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I had a pretty good Thai electrician who worked for me for several days. I paid him 500 baht per day and my wife was of the opinion that I was paying way too much. Of course that was NOT Bangkok. The guy did good work and didn't waste time. I would have been ashamed to pay him less. A few months ago, i paid 2K baht to install three ceiling fans (including drilling, installing new electrical wires & switches).
