Building a brand-new home on Koh Samui is now relatively easy to do but just a couple of decades ago it would have been a seriously difficult challenge. Fortunately, those days have long since passed and thanks to leading groups of trusted, experienced builders, such as Palm Construction, it’s a seamless process.
Palm Construction has over 30 years of experience in the UK housing market and we follow the strict standards imposed by the UK and European construction laws and build to internationally stringent specifications. On Koh Samui Palm Construction conducted rigorous research in order to better understand what new owners are looking for when they build on Koh Samui. Thanks to surveys that we conducted and the help of established advisers we realized exactly what was needed.
Over the years we have become one of the go-to construction firms on Koh Samui and are at the forefront when it comes to island development.
We have a keen eye for beauty and sustainability, and realize projects that stand out for their elegance, as well as being as ecologically sound as possible. We actively follow what’s happening in environmental discussions and aim to bring the most modern and best of practices into our building work. We continue to implement the latest ideas that make for quality living and we are mindful of preserving the environment.
We, along with other long-established peers, believe that this means that whoever builds on Koh Samui should aim to produce construction work that is of the best possible quality. Palm Construction, with best practices, has shown itself capable of meeting today’s demands and has experience of building a very wide range of constructions, both residential and commercial.
New home builders Koh Samui are all venturing into one of the biggest dreams that an individual can have: that of emigrating to an exotic country and building a dream property. As the above shows, the housing market here is rather more sophisticated than it used to be. Construction is better and so too is infrastructure, and as the home progresses towards completion, it can be seen that the materials used are top quality, more durable than ever and that when furnishings and fittings are added, these homes are beautiful throughout. Many properties can compete with the kind of high-end homes seen in style magazines and might equally be situated in the top holiday destination spots of Europe, Australasia and the Caribbean.
Palm Construction can also help new home builders Koh Samui in many other ways. We can help you in your search for exactly the right plot of land, giving advice on all the different areas of the island, and provide surveys as well as check out the land titles. We are able to look after everything that needs to be done in order to have peace of mind.
The functionality and form of a villa or house is something that is as important to us as it is to you, the new home builder. Our expertise allows us to help you make the best decisions concerning how best to plan and build a house so that it can take advantage of its surroundings. The mix of indoor and outdoor living is especially important in a tropical climate where you can expect to be outdoors much of the time. We can also naturally advise on how to let as much of the light in as possible. And we can help you with that essential factor, how to keep the house cool even on the hottest of days. This are just a few aspects of what we can assist you with in the construction of your new home.
We are also adept in helping with all matters that are legal and can give advice on setting up a company and registering it with the authorities; together we can ensure that everything that you need to do is done, and in a timely manner.
Once building work starts, we report to you and keep you informed every step of the way. In days gone past, the individual householder acted as project manager. He or she would be required to manage the work of several teams and get them to work in tandem with each other – a difficult task, usually hampered by language barriers. Today, construction companies like ours, big enough to bring many different teams under the same corporate umbrella, take away the need for constant overseeing by the homeowner-to-be. Since we are the project manager, we ensure that all teams are working together efficiently and in unison. This is one of the factors that new home builders particularly value and means that they don’t suffer from the kind of stress that was all too common in the past.
Our work also includes maintenance of the construction when needed. Often a homeowner may be away for months at a time and we can schedule maintenance for those times. This may include upkeep of the property and its surrounds as well as all elements of safety and security.
As you can see, our scope isn’t confined to just the building of the premises – we can do far more than this and are able to undertake a wide range of extra tasks, as befits today’s international clientele with diverse needs.
