A nip and a punch for the first of the month.... can you believe it is the 1st March already?

And with that comes more day light, hopefully warmer weather, gardens budding and growing, and of course, the annual increase of birds as we enter Spring.

That means that now is the ideal time to think about protecting your roof, chimney and roof furniture (aerials, dishes, wiring, cowls, caps and anything else up there), as well as keeping your driveway and patio free of poop and droppings.

By doing so you'll also be protecting the birds who can get caught, injured or set up nests in inappropriate nooks and crannies, where their young are vulnerable or will struggle to thrive from.

This is our busiest time of the year for fitting bird protection cages, so if you want to do the right thing, give our Jayne a ring in the office on 0191 252 4308. She will get your booked in for a survey and we will do a realistic quote for free.
