I ❤️ my large, colourful Wonderbags, and save so much on electricity. Rice, stews, pasta, lentil dishes…. There is so much one can cook/ prepare with them. 🎉No burning while it cooks, and it stays warm for the entire day! 🥳🥳They come in amazing bright colours and designs and work better than ovens/ stoves in my opinion when cooking certain things. Great for staff gifts- the gift that keeps on giving! 💵💰The monetary savings to one is massive, not to mention the environmental benefits 🦋🐞. They are huge and so well made. ✅On special until the end of July. With my environmental background and passion for sustainable living, I’m sharing to all 🙏

A medicine/ herbal treatment zone and broom cupboard that we organised that was under-utilised. Adding hooks, categorising containers once the items were sorted, allowed for the maximisation of spaces by utilising vertical options. Cleaning products were located in various places of the flat. Having a designated spot for everything minimises wastage, saves on space in this small flat; where everything needed an identified home to find things easily.

Another service .by_tam 💜s to do is ‘A’dvise clients on 1) maintenance needs, 🛠️, 2) making rental properties safe and compliant using my trusted service providers‼️, 3) identifying gaps/ opportunities to improve the operational (runnning costs) 💰of homes 🏠for clients. For this property, DB boards needed tracing and labelling to understand the electrical ⚡️context of the home where some of the property is used as a long term rental, while the other half is for short term rentals. General maintenance tasks were suggested, a solar system spec’ed🌞, the swimming pool needed work, and the electrical geysers and pipes are being insulated via lagging and geyser blankets and geyser timers are being installed. More environmentally friendly 🌳 and saving client significant costs as there are a number of geysers and one is exposed to the elements. Safety gate at the pool soon to be installed, then .
