February 2025 - Full Apartment Renovation in Weymouth
Back in November, a local customer spotted our posts on Nextdoor and reached out by email, asking if we could handle a full renovation of his flat. Naturally, we jumped at the chance — these big projects are right up our alley!
The customer wanted a complete refurb, including a brand-new kitchen and two modern bathrooms. Since he wasn’t living locally during the work, meticulous planning and project management were key to keeping everything on track and ensuring smooth progress from start to finish.
Just Stop Oil
Now hear me out... I know they're controversial and I know they wind a lot of people up but one thing they did do is get people talking.
Oil - it's bad. Most people would agree drilling for oil and removing fossil fuels from the ground is a bad thing for the environment, now this goes deeper (excuse the pun), if we are to save the environment we should live in a sustainable way - which includes photovoltaic panels, solar panels, wind farms, generating electricity from tides, all of these are sustainable.
