Are flies & insects driving you crazy this summer?
Exceed's retractable screens for windows & doors are the perfect solution to create and enjoy a bug free, spray free home this summer!
- Our clever screens can be pulled into place when needed, then pushed back into a discrete, tidy cassette when not in use.
- They are smooth and easy to operate.
- They’re stylish, robust and a significant innovation over old-style hinged or sliding screens that were permanently visible all year round.
- Plus they can be colour matched to your joinery.
- They fit most window and door configurations including, hinged, bi-fold, sliders, and French doors.

My beautiful boy, Sonic was last seen on the evening of 21 Dec, it is incredibly unusual for him to go missing for this long. Can you please be on high alert for him and check any buildings / sheds / garages that he may have got into? I am frantic about my little buddy 😿😿
Sonic is only just 5 years old; white & grey; male; polydactyl; chipped; desexed; no collar; timid/nervous.
He has gone missing from the Mercade Close area of Stratford - at the end of Pembroke Road, down past the Golf Course.
Please contact me if you sight him - 02787-22309 (Jan)
