Work History
I begin my handyman career in 2001. One friend of mine asked me to refurbish his very old (over 400y.o.) detached house in order to prepare it for sale. I did it; he liked my work and immediately recommended me to his friend. At that time his friend was CEO of Property investment & management Group. This is how I got my first contract. I worked for him up to winter 2003, successfully executed the professional multi-trader role working within the Group, travelling between the towns and Cities where employer got the business. Mainly dealt with private houses complete renovation Projects, including full upgrade of CHS, house re-planning, QS, refurbishment and redecoration, preparing housed for letting or sale. Later on worked as first technical aid specialist solving day-to-day problems that normally arise during managing of residential properties.
In 2004 I start to work for myself as solo-trader under umbrella of limited company running small-sized in circa £40K construction projects where I am still working at present.
