🎉 It’s not just any week… it’s a BIG birthday week! 🎉

We’re celebrating Alicia (our director & Ian’s wife) turning the big 6-0 🥳🥂 and, being a family-run business, that means we’ll be swapping work mode for party mode (just for a little while).

Just a little heads up:�✨ The office will be closing early today (Tuesday)�✨ From Wednesday to Friday, Trudi will be holding down the fort in the office on her own 💪 things may be a tiny bit slower than usual, please be patient with our lovely Trudi.�✨ Dean & Matt are still out on the road servicing and delivering salt.
✨Emily will still be sending out invoice’s but as she’s celebrating her mum’s birthday they may arrive a couple of days later

We promise we’re not ignoring you—we’re just busy eating cake and raising a glass 🍰🥂 (strictly in moderation… maybe 😄).

Thanks so much for your patience and for supporting our family business—it really does mean everything ❤️

Back to normal very soon!

After a hard fought battle, the lads see themselves take the win in today’s Semi-Final with a 2-1 result and secure themselves a Spot in the Final!
Well Done Lads, both goals from super sub Scotty G!

Once the date is released for the final I will liaise with Spencer from the Vine and Hopefully we can get the Village together again to support the team!

Hard water is water that contains high levels of the natural minerals magnesium and calcium. These minerals come from the soil and rock the water flows through, dissolving into the water as it flows through the ground. The more minerals in the water, the harder the water becomes.

These minerals aren't harmful (hard water is safe to drink) however they do cause problems in the home.
Often seen as:
💧Limescale
💧Damage to appliances
💧Dry skin & dull hair
💧Use of more products (cleaning & washing)
💧Soap not lathering properly.
It's not just about limescale, hard water affects your home, appliances and your daily life.

Softened water helps protect your home and makes daily life that little bit easier.

We recently replaced an older water softener system, with a Toucan T450/SXT, turning the unit to give a cleaner layout and more usable space for the customer.
If you have an old water softener that needs upgrading, give us a call in the office on 01371 810406 for more information.

As a business made up of true animal lovers, we’re really proud to sponsor a kennel at Danaher Animal Home - RSPCA, and we’ve loved receiving updates on the amazing dogs who’ve stayed there recently.

We’re so pleased to share that Picasso and Harrington, who stayed in our sponsored kennel, have now been rehomed and are settling into their forever homes.

We’d also like to mention Aitch, who spent a short time in the kennel and is hopefully not far from finding his forever home, and Ria, who is currently in the kennel but will be moving to her forever home soon.

A huge thank you to everyone at Danahar for the work you do every single day — and to the families who have opened their hearts and homes to these wonderful dogs 🐶
