2.60meter by 1.8 meter at 180 k is a tad expensive for a jacuzzi.

These Jacuzzis are 3.8m x 2.7m (not including the coping) and when you consider the cost of the excellent filters and pumps there are certainly not.

Then again if you have another supplier or want to make me a "jacuzzi offer" on our next house we would welcome your quotation.

Always looking for a good deal DD!

[dirtydog]

Look like 10cm tiles to me.

[jizzybloke]

Any chance of the specs and prices of the two places LT?
PM if your more comfortable with that.
If not tell me to piss off!

For a jacuzzi that small you are not talking about any amazing structural engineering, maybe a footing underneath it and thats about it, ok pump prices you can't get away from and also the jet filters, the sand filter you do not need a commercial one as it is such a small amount of water, something like that should cost about 80k baht.

I get 2.6 by 1.8 when I count those tiles.

I just received a quote from Michael at Lomatec and for units that he builds here in Thailand and for a slightly larger and longer jacuzzi/ wading pool. His discounted price was 250,000 Baht (excluding VAT) and just for the plumbing/pipe work, lights and the pumps and filters.
He was actually cheaper than 2 other Thai suppliers so your figure truly astounds me DD.
Even the shitty, ugly fibreglass things you can buy from China are over 150,000.00 Baht at least.

DD we need to do a deal and if what you say is achievable.

I know Mike, and i don't deal with him anymore, a pool and a jacuzzi are two different beasts, a pool needs loads of footings because water is really heavy and fat people jump into them, a jaccuzzi doesn't, I am too lazy to work now so it would be pointless contacting me, I would recommend you contact ISR, pretty sure thats there name, on center road near foodland, pretty good company.

Lets get back to the size again, in a 3.8 meter jacuzzi you would nearly get 38 10cm tiles in there, what am I missing here?

The estate as it is today.
Would have loved to put an underground electric service but the costs were too high.

Sorry I am wrong DD. Just got back from celebrating with the Brit customers and am a little pissy.
Just went down with a tape measure and it is just over 3 metres long and 2.1 metres wide.
My wrong!

You have got me thinking now DD.

Will contact this company or at least go down to see them.

Thanks.

Hey this is what this thread is about. Swapping information and helping each other!

[dirtydog]

Your allowing overlap from the internal measurement I take it, otherwise it don't get anywhere near 3 meters long, I did used to do building for a living so really don't need a tape measure to do a quote

[Loy Toy]

In my opinion one of the most important aspects and when you design a house is the entrance. We have achieved a nice result by using those cuts of rock face bricks and quite inexpensive cast decorative pilons.

[Loy Toy]

Just went down and took this picture. To be fair you can get a better idea on the internal design and from this picture.

I measured at the very top of the water line and right underneath the overhanging coping.

I am just a meek and mild bucket maker and certainly need a tape measure.

I personally dislike stand alone furniture in the bedrooms particularly. Wherever possible I try to fit in walk-in robes with drawer cabinets.
On this design we have fitted bi-fold doors with mirror inserts. I personally don't like watching a fat bastard rolling around on a bed but my customers requested it and to be fair it looks classy.

I especially like the beveled cut on the edges of each of the mirrors. That, IMO, is the classy part of having glass or mirrors in doors. Good job Khun LT.
