SUZANNE’S SMALLS

28th October 2014 By Suzanne Brenner

I call myself a consumer-activist, as anyone who follows me on Twitter (@prowriting) will attest. I use it as a tool to complain about bad service and give credit where it’s due. SB *

A Handy Handyman

I recently purchased a black, second-hand shop unit that needed an overhaul plus I wanted it painted white. After an unfortunate attempt by another, a whirlwind called Bongani was introduced by a friend to save the day. He’s a fantastic worker and for more info about what else he can do, call Amanda on 076 112 5377 (preferably in the morning).

Gardens and more…

While I haven’t had the opportunity to use Melusi Phakathi’s Evergreen Reeds Construction and Services, I called one of his references and he received a glowing report. His company specialises in tree felling, landscaping, irrigation, instant lawn and once-off clean ups (and he’s fully insured). I met Melusi by chance at Brent Oil Garage and I liked his approach and his efficient follow-up with detailed information about his company. References: Tim Conrad 082 5524785 or Servest Landscapes 011 7961800 (ask for Maintenance).

Call Melusi on 082 7900 982 or 011 057 4660.

* I make recommendations in good faith but bear no responsibility if the workers don’t meet your expectations.
