Have trades people you'd like to recommend to other residents?
This is the place to tell others about them!
Many of us, at one time or another, need some help, assistance or work done around our properties. Whether it be plumbing, heating, decorating, or even tyre replacement; it can be a lot nicer to use people who come recommended rather searching the internet. Please send us your recommendations using the "Contact" form.
