We have been happy with the work our contractor, Jerry, has done on the house thus far. He is easy going and smiles a lot but isn’t afraid to voice his opinions when needed. His assistant, Dave, is one of those quiet guys who doesn’t say much but is easily moved to laughter. He’s a big strong guy who takes infinite care in the work he does and is one of those rare tradesmen who cleans up after himself.

When I first met Dave I thought his personal style seemed somewhat.. shall I say… dated? But I didn’t think anything about it until he was introduced to another tradesperson while I was there. Then it all came together in a flash.

It turns out that this quiet guy who likes to hum along with every song on his boom box is not only a terrific tradesman but also an Elvis impersonator!
