Most of the Polish do a first class job for a very reasonable price;)Coolhandluke wrote: »I sometimes wonder if its just me being too fussy but i always struggle to find someone who will do a job just right and as you want it for a sensiable price.
And although I hate to admit it the last person that achieved this was a tiler from Poland who did a 1st class job and didn't cost the earth.
I have three at the moment landscaping my jungle of a back garden - building new steps, fencing, weed clearing, decking etc......Also another one who services and repairs my car......cost to me - £0

(Mind you....one of them is my partner)
who alo gets discount from his work for materials (builders suppliers)
Seriously - if you're in Omagh area and need any car work done - let me know - the guy we know is a great mechanic and has done a few cars and he's only been here a month.0 -
Eddie has now moved to Dromore (Down). He has given me a good quote to do some decking. Will let you know how it goes.Eddie 0777 937 5084
Straight up and down guy, will price by the hour or quote for the job.

Just an update. Eddie has done my decking and some plastering and tiling all of which I am very happy with. Also he didn't put the arm in. He's coming back next week to do some guttering and joinery work. A real sound bloke!!
I'm very happy to recommend him.Member #7 SKI-ers Club

David McClean (028 90418865, 07812113738) for the flashing repairs.
Not sure whether he covers Banbridge/Tandragee but I'd give him a shout and check.0 -
I have just moved house and have had my nightmare of a garden cleared by a guy with a minidigger. Fir trees, overgrown hedges and an old wall with foundation all gone in no time.
He had a grab on his digger and just plucked the hedges and trees out root and all, something that would have taken me ages, never mind several trips to the dump.
Now i have a blank canvas to work with. He's called robert, u can contact him on 07771885264 he covers newtownabbey area.0 -
