Tribal member George Siniscal recently retired from law enforcement in the Portland area, where he served for 28 years. He has just started his own business called Tomahawk Construction, located in Lincoln City. He has completely remodeled two homes in the Lincoln City area and does fantastic work. He loves to bring old buildings back to life with that sparkle that says, “Look at me, I’m new again.” He can remodel that bathroom you keep saying “one of these days,” or build a deck to stand on at night so you can look up at the stars above, or add a room - no problem. Need a fence to keep the children safe? Give George a call at 541-996-4972. You’ll be glad you did. His smile and laughter are worth meeting him.
