Get The Right Tools To Protect Your Home

Government officials and the police often say more needs to be done to protect your home. But no matter how much times they give you the know how, you can still never be too careful when it comes to protecting your home.

Here are 3 of my tips on how to protect your home:

1. Security Lights:

This is the most common security hard ware commonly used with most home owners. Security lights illuminate when an intruder crosses the sensor emitted by the light. This will reduce the time it takes for an intruder to enter your home and will also make the intruder feel vulnerable as he/she will probably be watched by neighbors and passer-bys. All security lights are switched on or activated by highly sensitive motion sensors and can be left on through all hours of the night.

2. Fire Extinguishers:

Fire extinguishers are the most commonly used safety equipment for homes and businesses. You can rent fire extinguishers from tool hire for a low and an affordable price. Keep in mind that if a fire is too out of control in your home (fire spreading to the ceiling) then the best course of action is to vacate your property until the emergency services arrive. Fire extinguishers come in different types of agents such as water, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, vaporizing liquid and halon.

3. Low Energy Bulbs:

Invest in some low energy bulbs which will enable you to leave lighting on in the most targeted areas of your home. Intruders tend to go for the places that may have your most valued possessions in such as your living room, bedroom and hallways. It is always a good idea to leave some lighting on in your home as this will fool intruders into thinking that there is a possibility that someone may be home!

Countdown To Christmas!….

With Christmas just around the corner, you have decided that you are going to make this Christmas a celebration to remember! You have drawn up plans of organizing a big family get together with loads of food, Drinks, decorations, presents and smiley faces!…but constantly going through your mind is “this is going to be such a daunting task”. With your big Christmas shop finally out the way, you now have to find time to clear the garden (which you planned to do 6 months ago!), make sure you have enough cutlery (ask the kids!) and the equipment to make this Christmas a joyful occasion.

Creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere in your own home can be alot of work, especially when your plan is to impress your family and friends.  Tool hire can take the stress out of visiting retail outlets full of last minute Christmas shoppers with their range of event and catering equipment available now to hire. Their range of affordable tables, glasses, tents, chairs, screens and barriers will leave you thinking “preparation doesn’t have to be to be so hard after all!”

You can also consider tool hire to take care of the big clean up operation by hiring their range of vacuum cleaners, Floor Scrubbers and waste handling equipment.

Who said getting prepared for your big Christmas celebration had to be hard work!

Time For A Change?….

Now that the Christmas and new year celebrations are all over, you start to take a quiet stroll around the house thinking “Re-decorating my house should be my new years resolution”. As you walk around your house and study each room, you notice that you have had the same wallpaper for over 10 years, you see a few dog ears in the corners of the kids room and you start to see the appearance of mould around the skirting boards!

Tool hire have a range of painting and decorating equipment to help you get started on an adventure that may seem very similar to what couples go through on Changing Rooms! Their range of hot air strippers, wallpaper strippers and folding steps are the right affordable tools for you to get started.

You can also consider tool hire for their safety and protection equipment which includes respiration units, breathing apparatus and full face respirators.

Winters coming – are you going to be hot enough?

The weather is getting colder and the first thing that comes to mind? Heating! Houses in the UK are all filled and fitted with Radiators -which is great – but the problem is that most of them were fitted ten, twenty, thirty years ago, or even longer! They may have been effective in the past, but over time they lose their efficiency and all your left with is a draughty house and a massive heating bill. Not good for your wallet or the planet!

You can hire radiators and heaters for the winter period that are twice as efficient as traditional radiators as an affordable way to keep rooms toasty any time of the year. It may be more cost effective than your current methods of heating, so a worthwhile avenue to investigate.
