There's not as much work as there was, but he's just managed to get with a big company. He has a list of companies, but they're all based here on the Gold Coast. I can ask him if he knows of any firms your way? Mandy |

He just fabricates/installs sheet metal ducting from the unit. He says message us your number and he'll chat with your husband. Mandy |
