Handy person needed to put awning on roof rack

I had a hand-sized hole left in the wall from an air conditioning unit removal, along with nail holes and a big chunk of unpainted wall. Chon took care of the whole lot in about three hours - plastering and painting - and did a top job. You’d never know anything had to be done. I’m really happy with his work - thanks Chon!
