Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to reply, it is appreciated. Would you mind helping with a little bit more information before I speak with him? What are his charges likely to be? Do you pay him by the hour, if so how much? or does he charge by the visit? as you can tell I have no idea about hiring anybody.

kind regards

Tony

Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to reply to my various messages, it is greatly appreciated. Would you mind helping with a little bit more information before I speak with him? Just so that I am aware what nationality is he? What are his charges likely to be? Do you pay him by the hour, and if so how much? Or does he charge by the visit? As you can tell I have no experience of hiring people

kind regards

Hi. He is Romanian and only speaks Spanish. He charges me 20€ per hour so you can say to him (for example) "Can you work here for 3 hours and l pay you 60€?" I think 60€ is the minimum amount he will come to your house for (assuming you live within, say 12 kilometres of Lorca).  I can interpret on your behalf if you like. Regards. Paul

Hello again

I'm OK with Spanish, not a problem

Can you give me his name and number and should I say you recommended him or say nothing?

Have you been using him for a while?
