The Hang Hound renovation plan

Fix the building first. Then finish the guest spaces.

The order is simple: stop the water, make the electrics safe, then finish the Glass Room, bar, DJ corner, lawn and gym without paying twice for water damage.

The build order

Three steps, in the right order.

The roof and electrics protect every baht spent after them. Work can still move in parallel where the building is already dry.

01

First

Stop the water

Protect the building, choose the complete roof solution, add gutters and downpipes, and prove the result with a water test.

02

Second

Make the electrics safe

Inspect leak-affected circuits, outlets and lights. Repair what is unsafe and run future media and smart-control conduits while ceilings are open.

03

Then

Finish the venue

Build the measured Bar shelves and move ahead in the dry Glass Room and lawn. Start vulnerable DJ and gym finishes only after the roof and electrical checks pass.

The next easy win

Build the Bar storage before adding more furniture.

The room is dry, the existing timber frame can be reused, and the overall L-shape is now recorded. The next quote should cover shelf boards and only the supports they actually need—not a new cabinet system.

Immediate targetOpen sealed shelves, organized stock and clear worktops. The render communicates the goal; verified bay measurements govern construction.

What guests will see

A venue that feels finished, not overbuilt.

The look is warm, minimal and intentional. We are reusing what works, spending on the moments guests notice and avoiding expensive custom work where simple construction will do.

DJ lounge / listening corner working concept

The signature moment

DJ lounge / listening corner

A permanent glass-block booth framed by benches, photography and a white vintage-speaker installation wrapping the real corner.

Glass Room working concept

Everyday comfort

Glass Room

Compact leather couches, a faded Persian-style rug, black velvet curtains and warm lamps—comfortable, restrained and easy to use.

Bar room working concept

The next practical win

Bar room

Reuse the existing L-shaped timber frame for sealed open shelves, keep the sink and computer accessible, and move bottles, glassware and cases off the floor and worktops.

Instructional gym working concept

Focused and permanent

Instructional gym

A black exposed ceiling, full mirror plane, rubber floor and compact storage create a serious workout room without unnecessary equipment. The frosted-glass rear-projection direction remains subject to a real site test.

What we know today

Working budgets, with the unknowns left visible.

These are planning ranges, not quotes. Furniture, materials and custom work that have not been measured are not hidden inside a low total.

01Clear-out done · quote roof next

Roof & drainage

฿130k–฿200k

The ceiling and room clear-out is complete at an actual ฿5,500. Temporary protection, waterproofing, new gutters/downpipes, safe discharge and a water test still need measured pricing.

02Labor counted only

Electrical & media

฿20k labor + materials

The electrician estimated ฿500–฿1,000 per outlet or junction. Materials and leak-related repairs still need inspection.

03Couch benchmark added

Glass Room

฿27.5k–฿54k currently counted

A Thai retail example supports ฿26k–฿46k for two sofas. Sealing, ceiling, tile, rug, curtains, lamps and delivery still need pricing.

04Storage measured · shelf quote next

Behind the Bar

฿26k–฿62k planning allowance

The L-shaped counter is recorded at 235 × 63 cm on the sink leg and 270 × 57 cm on the computer leg, approximately 1 m high. Reuse the frame for a shelf-only build before the later seating package.

05Most developed scope

DJ Corner

฿125k–฿127k

Quarter-circle glass-block booth, two built-in benches, the vintage-speaker corner, UV overhead light and warm accent lighting.

06Chair quote pending

Lawn seating

฿13.45k–฿18.45k currently counted

Twenty branded folding chairs, five side tables and a flexible layout that stays clear of the final drainage route.

07Concept direction added · measure next

Permanent gym

฿20k–฿53k currently counted

The dark minimal direction now covers the mirror wall, rubber floor, exposed black ceiling, warm track light and compact storage. A third concept uses the frosted glass for rear projection; it needs a real evening test and separate price.

What we are asking for

Agree on the order—not a blank cheque.

The immediate decision is the order of work. Before any major spend is approved, we need comparable measured quotes for the first packages.

  • Roof, drainage and water-test scope
  • Electrical inspection, endpoint schedule and materials
  • Measured fabrication and furniture packages
