Hitendra Dayabhai Dhameliya

We are tucked away in Jeram Morar Ni Wadi, right near Ambica Nagar in the Katargam part of Surat. It’s a crowded neighborhood but we like it here. Most people around here know us by name. We deal with whatever comes our way during the day. The building at 62-63 is where we spend most of our time. It’s not a shiny new office. It’s a place where work actually happens. There are stacks of materials in the corners and the sound of tools is always in the background. My brother and I handle most of the tasks ourselves. We don't spend money on fancy uniforms or big signs. We’d rather just do the work and let that speak for itself. Katargam is always busy so there’s a lot of energy around. Sometimes the neighbors come by just to chat for a bit. We try to be fair with everyone who walks through the door. If we can't do something, we just say so. No point in wasting anyone's time. The floors get dirty and the paint is peeling a bit near the ceiling, but the machines work fine. That’s what matters at the end of the day. We are just local people trying to make a living and providing what the community needs from us. It gets a bit loud with the traffic outside but we are used to it by now.
