He was taking care of our doors, sanding and repainting them, he took the lead in that project and explained it to others as well, who had never done that before and I have to admit, he did it better than me.… read more

Osman came to help us out for 2 or 3 weeks and stayed for two months . . . that says it all really.
A great guy to have around who worked hard and had a good attention to detail.
Very easy to have around the house and we would welcome him back anytime and recommend him to future hosts without hesitation.
Thank you Osman!
