Hello All!


My name is Chris and im in the beginning of establishing my own business and i will be self employed with no other employees working under me. I am not a novice in trades. Im exp'd in mainly carpentry, but i am well rounded in many other trades with plumbing my weakness(least exp.). I live in Philadelphia, in a neighberhood that is not low income, but a ghetto none the less. I wish to just provide affordable BUT QUALITY work. Im not greedy, but someone who just wishes to provide for my wife and child. My business will only start out small doing minor things such as all tiling, kitchens, bathrooms and other little things i can handle, only because i am one man.
But i just wanted to properly introduce myself to the community and am looking forward to befreinding many and look for some advice if needed.



Thnx,
chris~

DAM! I was going to say Port Richmond! Nice area (to cut through when 95 is backed up).
