Shoe Shine Man on Çaliş front
« on: June 17, 2019, 10:15:27 AM »
I was talking to the shoe shine man (sorry don’t know his name) and he said he was a painter and decorator by trade. Has anybody used him before as I was thinking about getting some work done on our apartment .

Haven't used him but Mehmet who used to be the chef at Dawn Beach is very good.

Can highly recommend Emin, Bayram's brother. Decent price & good clean work

Adem has painted the outside and inside of our villa. I can highly recommend him.

He made a real mess of the staircases in our apartment block years ago..It took us longer to get the paint of the banisters and stairwells than it did him to paint them.. He must have improved.

He painted the inside of my apartment a few years ago and there wasn't a problem. Out of the two I would say that Adem was more in need of the money than Memhet. He supports his family of four kids on what he can make during the season and the shoeshine business has greatly declined because most people wear trainers or canvas shoes on holiday.

Not regarding the ShoeShine Guy, but Memhet painted the whole outside of our complex last year......

All i can say is that it needs doing again this year. Must have used cheap paint watered down!!

The old adage 'once bitten twice shy' springs to mind
