Green House Motel

This album documents the build of our motel which is destined to create work for my wife & her family, and earn money for me to import tea, wine, and cheese.
It's a low-budget construction the way the Thais build their modern houses.

Kitchen view 2The cooker hood was got cheap for 6,500 baht from Home Pro, Udon. Normal price was baht 13,000 but it was in a sale because it had been a demo on a display board in the shop. The two-ring glass cooker hob cost about 4,000 baht (if I remember rightly) from Global House, and the stainless steel double sink and drainer cost about 2,700 complete with tap (faucet), drains, and underneath plumbing pipes and U-bends.jazzmanOct 28, 2010

Kitchen view 1We keep adding bits to this kitchen and it's still not complete. A breakfast bar still has to be built from the left hand side near the fridge to halfway across the archway. And the fridge will be replaced with a side-by-side. Cost: there is about 65,000 baht's worth of KITZCHO?® units. The solid granite counter tops cost about 18,000 baht including installation. jazzmanOct 28, 2010

wall 5Then it fell over. One night of rain was enough. This wall will be rebuilt using correct engineering and correct drainage. Another 40 trucks of dirt will be needed to top up the infill that was washed away. Probable total cost: around 250,000 baht.jazzmanJan 29, 2010

Nearly finished!Well, at least outside. Inside, all the floor tiles still need to be laid, the bathrooms installed and the electrics completed.jazzman

Grease TRapThe grease trap is an essential part of a well designed waste water system. They cost nearly 3,000 baht to buy. Jazzman's cost less than 100 baht to build - another $100 saved!jazzman

Concrete rings for sewerThese come in various sizes. These are 75cm inside dia., 50cm deep, hold 220 litres each and cost 90 baht each. Calculate ?€ x radius?² x depth, to get the volume. We use two silos of four of these rings; the silos are linked for 1st and 2nd stage processing. They will be sealed inside with bitumen paint. That gives us a total of 1,760 litres which is more than enough for a small household. Ready made glass fibre tanks of this capacity cost about 8,000 baht. Another $200+ saved!jazzman

Ceiling suspension: clpisThe rails cost 25 baht per 4 m length. One is installed vertically, the other horizontally. The metal clips that hold them together cost 1.20 each.jazzman

wall 3If a perimeter wall is to be used for retaining fill dirt, it needs some careful consideration. This wall is (was) 100 x 20 for 1 metre of in-fill.
Think about the 20 cm thick, steel reinforced walls of your tiny 4 x 8 swimming pool...

Continental European 'Schuko' socket & plug from BTicinoOriginally used in Germany for decades, this very safe system is becoming standard in most European countries (except the UK).jazzman

This 9 cm thick breezeblock is for heavy duty use. It is made with high grade portland cement. It can be used for load bearing walls if rebar is used and the holes a re filled with concrete. They can also be used for building small swimming pools.
They cost 8 baht each.1 commentsjazzman
