How Should I Select a Phuket Architect & Contractor?

Check Thai professional credentials where applicable, local experience, completed projects, references, insurance, company status, staff, subcontractors and dispute history. Compare detailed scopes and exclusions, not only headline price. The architect, engineer, quantity surveyor and contractor should have clear responsibilities. Avoid paying large advances without milestones, evidence and contractual protection.

Keep design, approval, contract administration and quality inspection separate enough to provide real checks. Require written records, version-controlled drawings and evidence before stage payments. Confirm current authority requirements before work starts.

Confirm current property-specific details through documents, inspection and appropriate independent professionals before committing money.
