Well, I know that in his early days of making music Peter Gabriel was told to go back to bricklaying. Maybe he finally took the advice and you can ask him. :huh: (hope not!!) I know a good appliance repairman, garage door repairman, plumber, and mortgage broker. Haven't hooked up with a bricklayer yet. Plan to at some point, or at least a brick ripper-outer for that odd retro fireplace we have in the living room. |

Bob, do you know if he does anything like rip out weird brickwork? :P For now we just want an estimate so we can work it into our fixer-up budget. I love our house, but I am NOT fond of the big weird fireplace. It's not the cool old-fashioned kind that you can practically live in. It's just this big ol' bunch of brick that takes up an entire wall and doesn't really serve a purpose. If it wasn't there we could get cool shelving like wot Mr. and Mrs. Triple have in their living room. *sigh* |

Hi Steve Best I know is Nick Leeves. Lives in Blackboys. He and his guys did the brickwork for my extension - I did the rest. Everyone who knows has admired their handiwork. You'll find him by Googling. |
