This is something rarely seen on Thai houses, This I believe is due to if it is raining they will not go outside anyway, even if they were supposed to be at work several hours ago.

But without guttering over a few years you will find concrete areas around your building slowly subsiding.

Generally there are two types of guttering used here in Thailand, Galvanised which lasts about 5 years and looks crap and costs about 200baht per meter length, Then we have lovely stainless steel guttering, this stuff is lovely to see and looks great for years on end, but again it comes down to the price, yep, you got to reckon on 700baht per meter length, and when your costing it don’t forget the downpipes, these are not free, you wouldn’t believe the amount of customers that question me on the meterage, they look round their nice roof and tell me that it is only 2 runs of 15 meters, they seem to ignore the 2 8 meter long down pipes, anyway these are fitted prices.

Of course for a more traditional look you could always use bamboo.
