23 viewsWith all of the work installing and plumbing in a bathtub, it would be a shame to start with a low quality plastic tub. A good bathtub can be had for about 7000 Baht, where a plastic one costs just over 2000 Baht. (06-Jul-04)dozer

20 viewsThere are two basic types of hung ceilings, one being sheetrock and the other made from prefabricated ceiling tiles. The prefabricated tiles are easier as far as maintenance since they are not permanently affixed and can be adjusted as required. Each tile is supported in a square frame. Should a tile break or discolor, it simply is removed and replaced. This picture shows an example of ceiling tiles.1 commentsdozer
