Wow!

Speechless! Have you ever been so surprised and awed that you don't know what to say? In a position where, "Thank you. No, really, THANK YOU." doesn't quite seem adequate?

Pablo Reyes just stopped by to do more work on our screen door without our asking. He added a wood brace across the middle of the door frame so that the screen won't come loose again by someone pushing directly on the screen.

Pablo lined the wooden brace up with the molding detail on our front door.

He then added linseed oil to both the screen door and front door, and sealed them with matte varnish.

All this because he thought our doors "needed it." He takes such pride in his work and has a great attention to detail. How many people out there can even get their contractors to call them back or show up when they say they will? Pablo is going that extra step and coming back to make sure our job is done correctly. I love it when someone takes pride in their work.

Pablo told me that he is now working fulltime with his Uncle Juan, who has done amazing work at our home.

Dang, sure wish Pablo worked in Chicago.

Your house is absolutely stunning by the way. I love the red trim on the outside, it's exactly what I've been looking for on our house but can't seem to find.

Can't wait to see your kitchen done!
