What can I do?

 

I can do many things  but do not work when it is raining because all my tools get wet when I open and close my drawers and I get wet too and can get sick.

If you have made an appointment and it is raining, then please change it

I always inform you of potential problems  
I always try to give you the simplest solutions to problems  
If I make a mess, I clean it up with my own vacuum  
I always start a digital timer when I arrive  
I always stop that timer if I go for lunch  
I work quickly and efficiently because I have little time  
All my work is guaranteed  
Your satisfaction is guaranteed

I do not subcontract,   you need a contractor when you are building a home.  You do not need one to fix your fence.  If I send you a person, you deal with them directly.  If you like them and hire them, you deal directly with them.  Some give me a small referral fee, some do the odd favour for me and from some I get nothing.  The most important thing to me is a happy customer.   For me, A happy customer is a return customer and  tells  their friends about me.  And this is what I like.
