Get A Free Consultation For Thai House Plans – Have Your Retirement House Designed Or Built In Thailand

  • Do you need to find a Thai Architect to make the Thai house plans for your dream home in Thailand?
  • Or do you need a quality Thai Construction company to build a house in Thailand for you?
  • Do you want to know how much does it cost to build a house in Thailand?
  • Do you want to know what Architect’s fees in Thailand are?
  • Do you want to have a cost estimate for building your house in Thailand?
  • Do you want to know where you can get house plans in Thailand?
  • Or do you want to have Bills of Quantity (BOQ) made from your house plans?
  • Do you want a site soil investigation to make sure that your house foundations are designed correctly?

Whatever you are looking for I recommend to you the Kensington Company whom we used to make the construction drawings for our retirement house we are going to build in Pakchong.

We were so pleased with the drawings and the service that they provided that we also used them to undertake a site soil investigation to make sure that the foundations were sized correctly. Also to make a set of Bills of Quantity (BOQ) to help with getting a construction cost quotation from a builder and controlling the build cost.

Just Drop Me An Email To Have A Personal Introduction To The Managing Director Of The Kensington Company

The Managing Director, of Kensington Company, Chris Clayton is a busy man.

If you drop me an email by filling out the Contact Us Form or simply put your request in the Leave a Reply box at the bottom of this page I’ll forward your request on to Chris and this will guarantee that you get a prompt reply and personal service from Chris himself.

Then you will not be just another faceless person dealing with a company that you don’t know, you will be welcomed by Chris and he will give you his own personal attention and if you need it a free personal consultation over a cup of coffee!

Why Use The Kensington Company?

If you are familiar with this website then you will know that I am using the Kensington Company to make our Thai house plans and do the preliminary and detailed design of our retirement house and to make the construction drawings.

You may have seen the post “A Thai Architect In Bangkok Is Making Our Retirement House Plans” where I explain how and why I appointed the company. You may also have seen some of the house plans and perspective drawings they produced for us on the “House Plans For Our Retirement House Produced By A Thai Architect” page.

You may also have seen the series of questions, answers and comments between myself and the Thai Architect illustrating how easy it is to ‘manage’ your Thai Architect from your own country by email.

But perhaps it’s not only house plans in Thailand that you are interested in. Perhaps you also want an estimate for building your house in Thailand. You can review the The Budget Price Of Building A House In Thailand page where I show you budget prices for building a house in Thailand. Then I suggest you let the Kensington Company give you some Thailand house build rates.

If you have seen all those pages, then you be in no doubt that I have proven it is feasible to get your house designed by a Thai Architect (at least by the Kensington Company) even if you don’t live in Thailand and you don’t know a Thai Architectural company.

You will also know why I recommend the Kensigton company. The reasons?

Why Do I Recommend The Kensington Company?

Apart from the simple fact that they are producing the preliminary, and detailed construction drawings for our retirement house in Pakchong, here are the main reasons why I recommend them:-

Excellent Service.

If you are lucky enough to be dealing personally with Chris at the Kensington Company, you are guaranteed the same excellent service that Chris renders to myself. This includes almost immediate answers to your emails in a most courteous manner.

Here is an extract from one of Chris’s emails:-

————————————————————————————–

Hi Alan

Yes I did, thank you, and all has been sent to Yos. So bear with him while he starts to put it together for you.

There is a long way to go yet with drafts, floor plans etc. So there will be a fair bit of back and forth, your comments and Yos send backs. Yos comments and gives advice, you confirm or pass comments. It’s a fun process and I will remain involved to make sure everything is understood. So if you have any issues or concerns just e-mail me. I am here to help.

I really enjoy doing it as you slowly see the home come together.

All the very best.

Chris

————————————————————————————–

Quality Assurance.

The Kensington Company has won several awards including the Conde Nast Hottest 100 Asia Hotels Award May 2008 for designing and building “The Villa Water Orchid”. You don’t win awards like that without delivering anything but the very finest of standards.

Ease of Communication.

By contacting the Kensington Company using the form above you will have direct access to the Managing Director Chris Clayton. Chris will personally answer all your emails.

Many of his staff speak, read and write excellent English so that communicating with them is as easy as it would be with any of your friends (assuming that you also are proficient in english of course!).

Still Not Quite Convinced?

It is my job to make this website interesting, informative and valuable for my visitors. I want to provide a service to my visitors and I try to do that by sharing my experinces and information as I go through the ‘retiring in Thailand process’. Part of the process involved finding an architect in Thailand to make my house plans.

See how difficult that was on the Finding An Architect in Thailand page. Try contacting some of the architects listed on that page and see if you get a reply. Then if they do reply, ask them some questions and see what the response is. You’ll quickly come to a conclusion, as I did!

Check out in more detail why I appointed the Kensington Company to design our Thai house on this page A Thai Architect In Bangkok Is Making Our Retirement House Plans.

Learn about why we also used them to undertake a site soil ivnestigation to make sure that the foundations were sized correctly and see photos of the test rig on site at Site Soil Test Report For Foundation Design.

Read why we commissioned the Kensington Company to make a set of Bills of Quantity (BOQ) to help with getting a construction cost quotation from a builder and controlling the build cost on the Finding Builders in Thailand page.

I’m sure you will be pleased with Thai house plans for your dream home in Thailand made by the Kensington Company.
