I am surprised no one has replied to this. Not Ovacik but, So here goes.
I recommend Yenigler (probably spelt wrong) it is the DIY shop on the Fethiye to Gunlukbasi road, after Kipa through the traffic light and through the next set, the shop is on the left hand side, speak to the manager Celal, they have done tiling for us and will be next week, we have always been pleased with the work and price, that is why we keep returning.

If this is the same Mehmet that does work for Engin then he is brilliant.. Not the cheapest but he did our kitchen and balcony and we were very happy with it.

Memmet did a lot of work for us when he worked for Engin.  He tiled our new kitchen and made a lovely job of it. He also speaks English.
I am glad you have put his contact details but can I confirm how to configure his email is it handyman.fethiye@gmail.com  or handymanfethiye@gmail.com  ?   Thanks

Many thanks for the recommendations. When we used FPS for our pool and garden Mehmet did the pool so we know him well.

I think that a lot of people over in Turkey seem to take a long time to answer their emails.  As you will be over the same time as us we will give him a try, so if we hear from him we will ask him would he answer you mail too.

We are here at the moment, we have all the ingredients, but as we had to leave 6 weeks early in May we had to leave the place with no bathroom, thinking it would be easier now the season is ending to get trades people, how wrong, they are just not interested or not answering.  Another problem we are encountering is, someone who would "give it a go" ummmm no thanks, I could give it a go.  Gordon could do it but his knees will not hold out for the flooring part, or going up a ladder for the high ceiling.

There is a guy we have used in Calis called Mustapha.  Our neighbours told us about him.  He seems to employ people of all trades.  I know he is an Electrician himself.  He put in wardrobes and cupboads for us and in May he put a new roof on our shed.  He actually turned up the same day we rang him to ask about the work and started the day after.  He is friends with the people who had Boston's and did work for them.
We have his number in our Turkish Mobile.  So, I will ask Phil for it and p.m. you with it if you wish?

O.K. Loz, Phil  is charging up his phone as we speak.   One thing to know is Mustapha does not speak a lot of English, but usually tells you his friend will call you back.  His friend speaks perfect English.  Will be in touch

Thank you, no English is OK, Gordon can get by with Turkish.  I will not be booking return tickets just yet, Handy Man Memhet has just replied to my email and I must slap my wrist for typing our tele number incorrectly.
