Description
We are a retired couple looking for help in the garden, , general DIY, painting the house
. We are easy going and love animals, we have 2 border collie dogs and 4 cats and we also do fostering for the local dog rescue center, so an animal lover is essential!
There is lots of tasks in the garden trimming trees and strimming the grounds and weeding. We are also doing short walls to finish off flower bed areas. General garden tasks
We are also redoing a bathroom so removal of tiles in the bathroom, we will be doing the tiling, so just prep tasks....this is a task for rainy days so probably jan/feb
Also a large area of the pool needs regrouting, so helping with preping for that.
My husband is skilled so just need a bit of muscle to help out, but some knowledge of DIY would be a bonus.
We have started the workshop now, concrete floor is laid, we are now looking to get the metal walls up and finish the last part of the workshop
So a variety of tasks to help out with if you are interested come and lend a hand....the food is good and planty of it and only 10 minuites from the lovely town of Georgiopoli
