Carpenter or handiman
 
Hello I am looking to update my 20 year old apartment over the next 12 months. I am looking for someone to replace all the internal doors and frames in my apartment. I am also looking for a decorator. Does anyone know of someone they can recommend? Thanks Julie

Spain is very big, well not so big but big.

You might get an answer quicker if you would include an area or city the apartment is in.
Cheers.

No need to say sorry. It' was obvious to most of us anyway that because you posted on the Ayamonte forum that your place would be there.
Ayamonte is a fairly big ,but not very big town in Spain for those who don't know.

Hi Julie

I just realised that you didn't get an answer.

This type of question is totally appropriate on this sub forum. It is an advantage for us to have had it for years. We are the only sub-forum on the Spain site because of the volume of help and feedback in our local area. So it is focussed for our needs :thumbup: A great community !

If you have a good relationship with your caretaker, you could ask him/her to either quote for work in their off time, or recommend someone. I've contacted a (bi-lingual) friend I know that does good work, but I dont know if this is in his 'bag of tricks'

If so I will let you know

Jon
PS Welcome to the forum and sub-forum
