  • As a rule of thumb, it's a good idea to have chimneys cleaned at least once a year. Usually before cold weather sets in.

    Recycled rubber tiles and paving

    This is a very interesting way of being green, but at the same time getting your path, drive and even a patio completely re-laid, or maybe you are planning a new garage and would like to get the drive made from this recycled rubber paving.

    The idea of using concrete and other hard materials is that they crack, and are hard, if you have children and they fall off of their bike, then there will be a few tears, but with this rubber material, it will not crack and although it is hard, it is not as hard or abrasive as concrete is, so the kids will be happy too.

    The great thing about this is that it looks great, but being recycled is just a bonus on top, because if you live in a region where there is snow and ice in winter, this surface would be easier to walk on too.

    No information on price etc.
