I bought some land in Pursat province ealier this year and putting plans together to build a getaway residence.
I need help with building material procurement.
Is building homes using wood still illegal?
Where can I go for building materials and equipment?
Building Material Procurement
Yep, I don't think it's that building wood homes is illegal, but building them with illegal (cheap) wood is.
To be honest, you should use concrete anyway. Especially if you won't be there full-time, as the wood houses have a nice way of collecting lots of dirt, etc. Concrete houses are a bit more "sealed".

afaik not, with legal wood (expensive as already stated) you should get a certificate of the legality. Note that you can not buy wood from PP and then ship it to anywhere else, they'd just laugh at you.PRINCE wrote:Is building homes using wood still illegal?
All over the place? My knowledge is limited to PP and few provincial capitals but my guess is just about any bigger town has shops. Near PP there's many big construction material (equipment also?) shops in Preak Leap. Tiles - etc - are very much cheaper in the provinces so there's no idea shipping them either.PRINCE wrote:Where can I go for building materials and equipment?

In Sihanoukville I have been paying $5 for skilled and $2.50 for unskilled (although there is not much of a difference sometimes, they don't do apprenticeships). That is per day.PRINCE wrote:What is the recommended pay rate for skilled and unskilled laborers?
There is a building boom going on.
