Granite_top.jpg
Kitchen topNatural granite slabs for the kitchen worktops. This cost about 1,500 per sq.m. It has to be installed by the supplier who cuts out the holes for the hob and sink, and grinds and polishes the edges on site.
Suppliers charge as much again for this service plus petrol (gasline) costs if you are situated out of town.
This granite may seem expensive to some, but it is still much cheaper than that awful formica chipboard kitchen top stuff they use in Europe.

fn_Leach_Pipe.jpg
Leach pipe.A leech system septic tank always end with a system of these. Should need no further description. It's a 4" / 100 mm pipe with holes drilled in it. See the forum on Plumbing to know more.
Seepage tanks should also have an overflow pipe. It is essential to measure the percolation of the substrate before simply installing the more simple seepage type of tank.

Front PorchThe drainpipes we used for the pillars don't look too bad at all really. While waiting for the ordered mosaic tiles to arrive, we gave them a coat of green paint. They will later be adorned with some porch lights.jazzman00000

Guest bathroomBrits don't believe in using up valuable real estate for low occupancy space. Our bathrooms have plenty of room for a WC pedestal, double shower unit, washbasin, plenty of space to hang your clobber while you wash, and for the gents, even a urinal.jazzman00000

soffit3" wide Sheraboard planks. Screwholes later filled with matching woodfiller.
This wasn't exactly what Jazzman was expecting when he came to inspect the work at the end of the day. The pattern is certainly interesting and is faithfully reproduced again on the opposite corner. Sometimes even Thai workmen can have a creative streak!

Floor_drains.jpg
Floor drainsThe drains in the the bathrooms and on the terraces were protected with PVC film and screwed into their pipes to serve as further height guages. Their height will be adjusted again later to be flush with the tiles. These diecast drains cost 140 baht but turned out to be not very good so we got the much more expensive one in the next picture instead.jazzman00000
