Versatile Tradesman:

Ever wished to meet someone who not only does great work, but is reasonable, trustworthy and has fantastic contacts? My friend and her husband recommended Mitko to us recently and we were not disappointed. By trade, Mitko does painting and decorating. If he can't do a job, Mitko calls in his trusted contacts -- for electrical work, vinyl/wood flooring, plasterboard/plastering, plumbing, carpentry, kitchens etc. Mitko and his team were very thorough investigating our problematic shower and sorted it quickly. Highly recommended!
