It's been a busy year for us growing both our family and business. We want to remind everyone we are around over the holiday period for anything that comes up and those urgent jobs we can come out 24/7 and public holidays. If anyone needs recommendations for plumbers, builders etc we have a group of great tradesmen we work closely with just ask for a recommendation including urgent work. Lastly we ask you to think of all the emergency workers- Police, Fire, St John's and ED, ICU who work throughout Christmas to keep us safe and well -who give up time with their own loved ones to help others and have had a tough year in Chch. If you see a Emergency worker working dont be shy to say thanks. Be kind, be safe and look after one another...Merry Christmas
