I had some unpleasant experiences with George earlier in the summer, although he can do good work, I agree. His offers of work turned into pleading to be paid in advance, or he would turn up and do something I had not asked for, and then demand to be paid. There was a thin line between legitimate work and panhandling. His stories changed from day to day and they were not consistent.

I am posting this for a neighbor who has a small business, mostly focusing on yard work and other odd jobs. They (I believe they are a nephew and uncle) are hard workers and trying to do the best by their family. The younger man is apparently raising 2 young children. They have been hard workers for yard work and even waxed a friend's car while she was visiting and did a beautiful job. I am sure they would do a good job with gutter clean up (something posted recently).

We are getting a quote on some painting from them, and they say they have done this sort of work in the past and have references. If anyone needs stuff taken care of, these two men are hard workers, charge a reasonable amount and could use the extra help right now.

You can reach George or Vincent at 412.661.2231. They live here on Heths Avenue by the park.
