'What's new at Sankop?...'

Just about everything about our house, is the short answer!

(Note to mods: This isn't 'spam', just a genuine note of thanks, which might be of great help to others on the forum)

As many of you will know from some of our other TLF posts and PMs, we were out in Bodrum April/May, trying to sort out some legal bits'n'bobs and running around like headless chickens getting quotes for work on the house/furniture etc. You'll also remember that we were lucky enough to spend some time with the very wonderful Lynne and Coskun ('Josh'), who were great hosts and company.

As you may or may not be aware, Josh and Lynne run (among other things!) the Atlas Emlak office in Gundogan, and amongst their services is organising major renovation work on tired out properties like ours!

We'd already had quotes for the work that needed doing, but another never goes amiss, so were happy for Lynne and Josh to come and look around. (Thanks, and hi, here also to Keith and Sylvia, for showing us the work that Lynne and Josh had arranged for them).

Josh took a good look around, immediately picking up on all the work that we knew was necessary - and on a few items that we'd missed, and a quote was duly prepared!

Charm and friendliness aside, we would have taken them up on their quote on price alone! Their laid back 'no nonsense & no pressure' approach was also a refreshing change from some others. We left for home feeling confident that we'd left the work in safe hands.

Over the next few weeks, Lynne was in regular contact with us by text and email, regarding the progress of the work. We couldn't wait to see the next set of pictures that she was going to send us. She always let us know if any item was going to be slightly over budget; likewise, if any were going to be under (and yes, some were!).

Last week we saw the completed work. I can't begin to describe the difference between our 'old' house and the 'new' one! Words don't normally fail me (as you can see from the foregoing), but I was at a loss to express the extent of my delight. In little over a month Josh and his team had carried out a fabulous transformation. He'd even done some 'extras' for free because 'it looked better that way'!

So a HUGE THANKS, to Lynne, Josh and their team... and also to TLF for giving us the forum that introduced us... and if anyone in Gundogan, or throughout the peninsula needs any reno work I cannot imagine anyone would do a better job!
