Gonzalo was a highly intelligent and efficient worker - the job he did of installing new doors, changing out old doors, replacing hinges and making the lock work, was excellent. He also painted the doors to a high standard and had to adjust frames. Not an easy job and he did it with great communication and was lovely to have around. I would hire him again.
