Is your Hot Water Cylinder costing you the price of a new one?

Patrick from Bishopdale

I come across numerous old hot water cylinders that are passing all that precious hot water.

This is generally down to the age of the fittings.
A lot of plumbers will tell you it’s a new cylinder change which is very unfair on the customer.

If you may notice there is not enough hot water I can … View more

A lot of plumbers will tell you it’s a new cylinder change which is very unfair on the customer.

If you may notice there is not enough hot water I can help.

A simple fitting being replaced can rectify this.

For this and/or any of your plumbing needs feel free to get in touch

- Will you need to hire multiple contractors?

Raised garden beds are ideal for the family to grow your own vegetables or other plants and there are many benefits in using them including

- extending the planting season significantly as the beds will warm faster and hold the warmth
- allowing better drainage
- as the gardener doesn’t walk on the garden bed, the soil doesn’t become compacted
- the soil will remain light and loose allowing it to hold more air helping the vegetable roots to grow with less effort
- ability to reduce the number of weeds
- if using close plant spacing your raised vegetable garden bed will create a micro-climate which will contain moisture and further discourage weeds.

Fill with compost, mulch, good soil and fertilzer mix.

If you are looking for a raised garden bed or planter box see Out of the Woods Woodshop here on Neighbourly.
