Tib6005 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I'm looking to buy a small sala. Can anyone recommend a Chiang Mai company who can manufacture, deliver and construct the sala, please? Size to be approximately 7ft. square. An indication of cost would be really helpful. Thank you so much, IMT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naboo Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 For an idea of costs: http://www.nanagarden.com/tag/ศาลา I'm sure I have seen teak wood ones at Baan Tawai for 20,000-30,000B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven100 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Don't buy a bamboo one, they fall pieces after one year. Buy a wood one .... prices vary, 35k - 45k .... for a medium size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your comments, the notions of it catching fire, or becoming insect-ridden, fill me with dread. Such helpful input, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tib6005 Posted June 16, 2017 Author Share Posted June 16, 2017 You've certainly given me food for thought together with some excellent information and advice. Thank you, everyone. Imelda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect a Teak one to be far more than that new .Things seemed quiet though in Baan Tawai ,last time i was there ,so i am sure a discount is possible .

WinnieTheKhwai Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I'd just build one. Much more spacious than the cramped wooden ones with crap wood (even if teak) that are still pretty expensive. All it needs is 4 concrete posts (or metal posts, or wood if you can find it) and a basic roof structure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
