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.
