Skirting BoardThe skirting board is brand shera (same as the soffit material). It is affixed by drilling holes in the concrete wall and inserting a plastic grommet. Then a hole is drilled in the skirting board which then is drilled into place. The screws are countersunk so they are level with the surface. Then a white plaster is applied (as seen) to make the screw head undetectable. dozer00000

Soffit CaulkingThe soffit underside is caulked to fill in any irregular gaps. Notice the use of plastic before the soffit painting begins. For some reason Thai workers don't like to use any kind of masking material as a preventative, it takes continued perseverance to get it to happen.dozer00000

Taped Exhaust VentThe taped exhaust vent mounted in the soffit underside prior to the detail paint application. One thing that must be minimized with masking tape is the amount of time it is affixed to the masked surface, after time it tends to leave a hard to remove glue residuedozer00000
