For those of you who have followed this page for a while you may like to know that my trusty steed 'Greg' is still about.
Greg was instrumental in getting this business off and running and although he is retired from handy man'ing he is still very much loved and is hopefully looking forward to some renovations himself soon.

Some commercial painting completed. I had to hire a cherry picker to complete the top section but it all in a day's work. It took three coats of white to cover the previous colour but this now look a lot fresher and modern.
P.s: apologies for the rubbish in the driveway (B.M.W! 🤣)

Can't get much pink'er than this!
Store length bulkhead painted after hours for this popular chemist to conform with their corporate colours.
Painting this during normal working hours is impossible without inconveniences to staff and customers so its more practical to perform these tasks after closing.

Ceiling inspection panels installed at a fast food chain. These were installed by The General at all of these stores across the state to aid in the cleaning of ducting.

Because this large concrete filled bollard wasn't obvious enough it kept getting crashed into.
As the base and asphalt were all really damaged the lot had to come out, be concreted with steel mesh inlaid and a a new flexi base fiberglass bollard installed.

Seems the General didn't spend enough time looking after his own maintenance and ended up in hospital.
Another couple of weeks off work waiting on some repairs to finish and I will be back to it.
Look after yourselves out there and get checked when things don't seem 'right'.
