MarkJohnson is the best carpenter I have used over the years.
He is professional, courteous and does an excellent job.
However because of these strengths he is very busy.

We used Mark Johnson to fit some decking several years ago.
All of the supporting bearers rotted away
Despite him promising to come back and investigate a few times, he failed to return
Not impressed

Morning,

I have also used Mark who also advertised on my old forum (C.L), he did a kitchen renovation for me some time ago he and his men did a good job no regrets from me.

Also not a good idea to use realwood for decking, it never usualy lasts, rots away, after two expensive refits we decided to have concrete and floor tiles, I think the wayto go in Cyprus..
Jim.

Try Hermes on 96 080 861. He is Greek and spent many years working in Denmark. Good English. Has done a lot of work for people in Kamares and has an excellent reputation.

Good advice Jim - if only we'd been advised this when it was first installed.
The actual decking was 'composite' which was fine but sadly the subframe rotted away.
We have followed your lead and have now concreted/tiled it over
