Save energy with a boiler from Northern Gas Heating

by

Here’s something for my readers from the UK.

If you’ve been looking for a company to do your Central heating installation for you, look no further. I’ve found a company that’s made it it’s mission to provide it’s clients with the best prices and better service than any of the other central heating companies.

The company is Northerngasheating and they offer a full range of services and products from maintaining your Boiler service to installing Gas central heating. They’ll work with you to ensure that your new installation or service is well within your budget.

Now, I have oil heating myself so I haven’t spent much time looking at the type of services offered by gas related central heating companies so I don’t know what kind of warranties most companies offer when they install central heating. However, I can tell you that NorthernGasHeating offers a free five year warranty. Sounds good to me!

One thing that I like about the NorthernGasHeating website is that they have information about Energy Efficiency. There are some tips on how to save energy in your home as well as information about high efficiency boilers which of course will help you save a lot of money on your energy bills.

So if you are thinking of replacing your old boiler or as we call them here, furnace, check out the NorthernGasHeating website. While you’re on the site you can call them for a free quote or book a free appointment.





I have a plan to save money on our home renovations

by

I was just saying on my other blog that Chris and I spent some time talking today about our various renovation projects .. the stalled ones that need finishing and future projects.

I didn’t mention that we might be able to get some really good prices on any materials that we need such as tile for the shower or other renovation and finishing products, furniture, electronics and more. We were contacted by DirectBuy a week or so ago, and we’re considering getting a membership.

It’s a member only club that offers merchandise at manufacture direct prices. The savings are huge! Since we have a lot of renovations to do, and then of course we’ll need to redecorate … well … it would be nice to save as much money as we can right? I think it would be worth it.

Are any of you members of DirectBuy?

If you’re in an industry within the UK where you need to occasionally use Access platforms you should take a look at Panther Platform Rentals services.

Donate your car to Car Angel and help kids in need

by

There’s a really cool website called Car Angel where you can make a car donation or for that matter you can even donate a boat, an RV, a house, or even a plane and I believe the money from the proceeds of your donation goes towards helping single mothers, orphans, homeless, teen and adult rehab and prison reform.

The people at Car Angel also use the donations they receive to make videos for kids and teens. In total they’ve given away over 2.4 million videos!

As you might expect Car Angel is a non-profit organization, created to help those in need. You can help by making a donation. It’s easy to do. For example if you are donating a car they will do all the work to schedule the vehicles pick up or towing. They’ll also do all the work involved with transferring the title. Your donation will qualify as an IRS tax deduction as well.

This is one of the videos that they’ve purchased for kids that is distributed free thanks to all of the donations Car Angel has received:

Our neighbors home is still up for sale

by

Our neighbors house still hasn’t sold yet. I think it’s been up for sale since the end of September.

The other day I was in our back enclosed porch cleaning up the area so our puppy wouldn’t get into anything that might harm her and someone was seeing the house next door. The people stopped to talk on the porch and didn’t realize I was right next to them on my porch (the window in between is frosted) and I over heard them saying the house was too much of a fixer upper for them.

The house really does need work. The real estate agent originally had it listed at $349,000 but it looks like it’s been lowered to $333,000. Both prices are really good for our area. I’m fairly certain with the work we’ve done to our home we could list ours at close to one hundred thousand higher, but there home really is in bad shape inside.

Chris was talking to the owner the other day and he told Chris that mortgage companies won’t lend anyone money for the house because their oil tank is more than 15 years old. Hmmm so is ours but we have insurance. It makes me wonder if they don’t even have home insurance? Anyway, they are going to have the oil tank removed and install gas.

Still … their price is too high for their home. They’ve done absolutely nothing to fix it up at all.

It still looks like it was last decorated in the 60’s or 70’s and like nothing much has been done to it since then.

If they ever do manage to sell the house I hope we get good neighbors. That’s all I ask.
