Thread: New here, building soon!

Just wanted to introduce myself here, my name's Kyle, and I'll be building a house in Thailand soon. After browsing through a bit, this site seems to be a great resource and I plan to make good use of it.

So far I've only had the fill for my house placed and the road built up. Which did not go as planned as the dirt laid for building was placed in the wrong spot, with the driveway laid on the wrong side of the house as well. I won't be back in Thailand for a few months, and thought I could have family and friends supervise this relatively simple task. I even had the area marked with tape and flags, I don't know how the job managed to get bungled so badly! Lesson learned (and paid for!), you always have to be there!

Edit: Quick drawing of issue

Here's as it was done.



And here's how it should have been.



Don't really want the driveway cutting through the middle of the property. Also, definitely want more of a yard in the back of the house (for privacy), instead of the entire yard being in the front and sides. On the right side of the drawing (just past the two ponds) is where the in-laws house is.
