New build house in Thailand and roof insulation
We are in discussions with the client before construction work can start. Our house (Nordic style) will have a traditional sloping roof, not a flat roof. The question now remains regarding insulation of the false ceiling and/or roof.
Our house was built 8 years ago. Near Phimai. Now the ceiling plates are already starting to sag and crack in the corners. They are screwed into metal strips I think Does anyone know a good system that won't crack or sag.
I read that among the Thailand bloggers there are people who built their own house or had it done under their supervision. Well, I have plans to replace all the ceilings on the top floor of our house.
Termites in the ceiling
We have ceilings throughout the house that are made with 'gypsum board', smoothed on the underside and painted white. Looked good until the termites discovered the thin layer of paper around the plaster.
Reader question: Experiences with a PVC ceiling
After about 5 months (for the necessary formalities and medical checks) in Belgium, back in my beloved Thailand/Isaan. Built a new kitchen/living room last year, behind the house including wash-shower and pantry. Nice and cool there and is used intensively for several hours / day by my girlfriends, family and acquaintances. Would have liked to install ceilings (Faa) this month, in the places, where I thought of a PVC (plastic), implementation, is easy to install and maintain.
