Anna Davis - Image 1 "Samet is efficient, reliable, and trustworthy. I will definitely use him again. He was flexible and very helpful. He even tidied up and brought his own hoover (!!). He’s a top bloke and was very hard working. The walls before he started were blue and full of holes and marks. They hadn’t been painted in over a decade. He did an extra coat! He’s fab!"
