Heaven Sent Contractor

Have you ever hired someone to do a job for you that just continued to go so far above and beyond what you asked them to do that you aren't even sure how to truly thank them??
We have that guy working for us!! Richard showed up this morning to do the push out for the garage addition and decided that even though he knows there is no more money in the budget for his time, but that since he was already here for the day he would just continue working in the backyard and on the rest of the driveway. We weren't even planning on doing the driveway, and that being said, have already redone a good portion of it. . . but when he came today he decided that we needed to get more gravel and just finish the driveway. Michael informed him, we have shot the gravel budget and that he (Richard) has already exceeded our expectations of what we hired him to do so it would just have to wait. Well Richards response was, I'll just bring my dump truck over and haul the gravel myself from the quarry which will be a lot cheaper for you and you just pay me for fuel. . . .Michael says, that means you are working for free. . . . Richard, Ya I know but it would just be so nice to finish off the driveway and you really need more gravel in here. WOW! I don't even know the right words to express the way Richard has blessed us.
By the way, if anyone needs Excavation work done I would recommend Quality Excavation Systems, he is out of Salem and has been OUTSTANDING. 503-363-4323 ~ Richard http://www.qesinc.org/
