Service: Replaced wall baseboard panel and fixed a ceiling light

Gael was just here last week doing a few chores, a replacement of a board on the bottom of a wall that had come out from humidity and some construction next to me, and also a ceiling light. They were not terribly difficult chores, but he did it very quickly and had a nice attitude. I would give him a positive recommendation. Overall it was a very positive experience.
