Splashbox Agency is the best when it comes to web development

Web-development

 

I work as a freelance writer and most of my jobs have come in through word of mouth. In this industry, word of mouth is very important. If you do a good job, your client might recommend you to a few people. If you do a bad job, then your client will definitely tell everyone he knows to steer clear of you. For that reason, I’m very particular in the work I do and I make sure that every client is clear on what they want so that I can best meet their brief. At any rate, work is going great but I want to beef it up a bit more. Call me crazy, but I’ve never had a website. I figured it was high time to get one, so I enlisted the help of Splashbox Agency to design and develop one for me. They’re a local web development agency made up of a really great team – I’d meet the directors before through a mutual client of ours. I met up with them again to explain what I wanted and they were more than happy to help. I was happy to spend a bit more money than usual to make sure it was done right the first time, and I have no doubt they can do it. If you need a website, give them a call.

Want a garden but don’t have the space? Try a vertical herb garden

Vertical-herb-garden

 

My sister has just recently moved into an apartment in town to start at a new job she’s just been given. It’s great as I already lived in the city and now we get to see each other a lot more than we used to when she lived a couple of hours away. She’s a big lover of gardening – at her old place, both the front yard and the back yard were full of garden beds, flowers, vegies, trees both big and small – it was like a forest back there. Unfortunately for her, the new apartment hasn’t got that sort of space. In fact, she’s on the third floor and doesn’t have a backyard at all. I know how much a little bit of greenery means to her so I thought I’d do some research and find out some alternatives. I came across a vertical herb garden which seemed like a good idea. O2 Plant Walls is a great little business that specialise in the design and construction of vertical gardens, perfect for space-deprived apartments. I organised to have it installed on my sister’s balcony and she loved it! That little touch of green makes all the difference and I have to admit it really does look great.

Call Haven Fencing for superior pool fencing Melbourne and beyond

Pool-fencing-Melbourne

 

I own and operate a little bed and breakfast about an hour or so outside of Melbourne. I love the change of pace up here – I used to live right in the city but I moved about a year ago and haven’t looked back. The bed and breakfast was an existing one that I took over, and it needed a little work done to get it up to scratch. Nothing major, but a few things I couldn’t ignore. One of the issues was the pool fencing needed replacing – it was old, rusted, and in one spot it even bent over completely. I scrapped the whole lot and replaced with glass pool fencing which looks so much nicer. The glass panels are really sturdy and strong, and the best part is that they don’t block any of the views to or from the pool. It really gave the whole pool area a rather modern look and I can’t wait for the guests to see it as it’s finished just in time for summer. The company that installed it for me was Haven Fencing, and they were great. I shopped around the get some quotes, and for the great level of work they did they were very competitive. Everything cost as much as they said it would and not a dollar more. They cleaned up once they were finished, too. For pool fencing Melbourne wide, I’d be happy to pass their details onto Haven Fencing.

Bond loans from Rent Bond Move for an easy move

Bond-loans

 

I am writing to share my experience of using Rent Bond Move for one of a few bond loans. Little did my husband and I know, the bond loans that Rent Bond Move offer are not just for rental bonds! We initially got a bond loan with them when we moved into our new rental property 2 years ago.  It was a very quick and easy process, from speaking to their customer service team on the phone, to paying it off. The whole idea of us moving into the new house was to make space for a family. With a newborn on the way, we needed a little extra money to make what we once used as a study into the new baby room. Our landlords agreed to a paint job and new carpets (it had cold floorboards before), but now it was up to us to get that little bit of extra cash to cover the costs. With Rent Bond Move’s custom designed loans, they were more than happy to lend us the money to cover the renovations. We have an excellent relationship with them and will definitely use them in the future as we grow our family and make more changes to the house.
