  Rénovation 345

  • Self Employed

    • 2009 - 2016

    Work on residential renovation projects, have no competency cards but I am able to do Plumbing, electricity, ceramics floors and wall, wooden and floating floors, Paint, etc. I was dragged around from 10 years old by grand father and uncles, who worked in construction, in family home renovations. So like cooking it's kind of second nature to me. P.S. For those wondering what 345 stands for: it's a simple construction principal of putting a wall at 90 degrees to another. Done by figuring 3 feet from the corner wall and four feet from the other; the difference between the two points should mesure 5 feet to have perfect 90 degree angle.
