Wedding Dress Cleaning | Premier Dry Cleaning

I can imagine as a woman how important your wedding day was, especially your wedding dress! We all know the day is mainly about the bride and her dress, no one really ever takes notice of the groom do they, apart from the bride.

Your wedding dress is probably one of the most treasured items you own, so it's no surprise you want it to stay in the most clean and preserved condition possible. However there might have been a few accidents at the wedding, perhaps a few stains or dirt marks? You are probably too frightened to take it anywhere to be dry cleaned as well aren't you? I know I would be!

This is why you should use a premier dry cleaner who specialise in wedding dress cleaning like American Dry Cleaning. They will inspect your dress and examine it from top to bottom to classify all stains and soiling to ensure they are treated effectively.

After your wedding dress has been treated they will do a final inspection before hand pressing which is carried out by a master presser who will attend to each layer and detail of your dress.

To ensure the shape is preserved American Dry Cleaning use specialist acid paper and preservation boxes which also help to prolong the life of your dress.

If you would like to preserve your dress for a lifetime you should use their preservation boxes which protect the dress from dust and UV light which tend to discolour and age the dress as time goes on.

FREE Biomass Wood Pellet Boilers

In today's current world and society we are ever changing our outlook on ethical policies to help to reduce air pollution and co2 emissions as well as protecting the planet and its resources. More and more technologies are emerging for example electric cars, solar powered houses, recycling etc.

If we actually stood back and thought about it we would see how damaged our planet truly is and we are running out of resources. Seen as the majority of home owners use gas boilers and have petrol or diesel cars we will never resolve the issue, large companies will continue to drill into the earth for these resources, even when knowing they are not renewable. How do we expect gas, oil and electric prices to ever decrease when there is only s short supply? Prices will continue to increase for non-renewable energies and there will come a day the planet will dry out.

We can change this, even though you are only one person on a enormous planet you can still make difference. How would you like to save money off your heating bills as well as saving energy? Its a win win situation, your helping to contribute to saving the planet and in return you save money off your heating bill! 

How is this possible?

By installing a Biomass Wood Pellet Boiler which is a renewable and sustainable heating source that can reduce your heating costs by around 70%!

How much does it cost?

Its FREE! Seriously it is completely free!! NWS who provided these energy saving boilers claim from the government-backed Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) which is earned from the system. This scheme was designed to get homeowners and business owners to switch their energy sources to biomass.

How much is fuel?

With NWS you get £250 worth of fuel to use with your boiler after the installation. To view future fuel prices please click here.

Is there any catch?

None what so ever! This is part of the government-backed scheme to get customers to switch to renewable energy sources.

What if the boiler breaks?

Not a problem, NWS will cover your boiler up to 7 years after installation which includes all parts and labour.

What other benefits are there? 

Free annual service, bespoke biomass installation, exclusive NWS Wood Pellet Promise, a free membership to the UK's largest fuel syndicate AND if you refer a friend you can earn £250!

Is there any reason I shouldn't go ahead?

If you don't want to save money or the planet then by all means stay as you are.

What to consider when choosing an accountant

What should you consider when choosing an accountant for your contracting business?

Well there are a few things you should look out for so to help you I will list as many points as I can that will hopefully assist you when you come to make your final decision.

From working with a range of accountancy companies I have come to understand that it is best you find one that knows your business and accountancy needs. Look for accountants who specialise in your area of business for example Complete Accounting specialise in accountancy solutions for contractors. This will help you to maximse your full potential and earnings.

Make sure the company you choose provides an honest and fair service and their fees are reasonable. You will find certain companies will over charge if they think they can. However you do get what you pay for and quality is quality so do some research first and check out their testimonials and reviews.

You need an accountant that is willing to be there whenever you need them. See if they offer a service that is available to you when you need them and wont charge extra for it. You may find some companies will charge for their advice.

Can the accountant provide you with fresh advise and ideas for your tax? They should be pro-active and come up with new methods for you.

It's always good to work with an accountancy company that can deal with your queries via email to save you time and money.

If possible try and get a fixed fee for your accountancy package or get a fee that does not exceed your agreement.

Can they give you a fast response? If they're in no rush to get your business now you can expect the same level of service throughout.

Do they offer exactly what you need? I have found myself in the sales process they tend to say anything to get you on board and sometimes you are pushed into singing up to a service that does not fully meet your accountancy needs. Be confident to say no and don't be shy to ask for more.

Can they guarantee deadlines for your work to be completed? This is crucial when your self-assessment and tax returns are concerned as well as bookkeeping.

Make sure your account ticks all these boxes for you, it may incur in long time heads and problems for yourself.

For contracts in the UK I would like to recommend Complete Accounting in Hale, Cheshire who are specialist accountants for contractors and offer the highest standard of service with their accountancy solutions and bespoke online software.

Austin Bathroom Ranges at The Bath House

In our last few blogs we have showcased the designer bathroom ranges available at The Bath House in Wirral. I have shown you Pura Bathrooms and Porcelanosa bathrooms now its time to look at Austin and what their stunning ranges have to offer.

You do not necessarily have to pick a bathroom from any of these designers, it's more around getting a feel of the different styles, features and products you can incorporate into your bathroom design. Now some people reading this will probably be thinking what does it matter it's only a bathroom, quite right but to most people it does matter. You spend on average an hour in bathroom every day so why wouldn't you want it to look nice? In the morning I get up and the first room I go in is my bathroom, now if early mornings aren't bad enough the last thing I want to be faced with is a dull, gloomy and dingy bathroom!

The great thing with bathroom design is that there are so many things that work together for example oak wood with grey slate or bright white with stainless steel.

At The Bath House you are able to see your bathroom design on a 3D image so you can see how it will actually look if it is installed in your house. You can do as many drafts as you like and their design team work with you to bring all your ideas and visions to reality.

Handmade Wigs and Toupees in Manchester

For anyone who has lost or is losing their hair I can only being to imagine how uncomfortable it is for and how much it has shattered your confidence and self-esteem. Many people I have spoken to are in this unfortunate situation say they cannot afford the best solution which is to undergo surgery and have a hair transplant and when I have researched different prices they are all above the 1000 mark.

These do not look like your normal and typical wig, in fact they look 100% natural and realistic by using the highest quality of human hair, selecting hair that matches your own colour then cutting and styling the wig to your exact requirements.
