    we got our boiler serviced and all our radiators flushed last week by a company called mk powerflushing. heating now like new and very friendly people (good price too).

    i have a leaflet somewhere with their details....if you can't find their number/website post back on here and i'll hunt it out.

    hope this helps
    Ooh, yes please, Tocadast.:beer:

    I did a quick Google and found Powerflushing & Plumbing Services based in Deanshanger - is that them at all? If it is, they don't seem to have a website, I've got their listing on Yell.com

    I also found just an information page for powerflushingmiltonkeynes.info so I can't tell from that which one you mean, and I'd far rather use someone who comes recommended.
    (Where's the Confused smilie when I need him LOL?)

    We're not due a service yet, but I want to be prepared for when it's due - and also I like to have a "pet plumber" to call if we have any problems during the winter.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Does anyone in MK have kids who collect Match Attacks cards from Tesco??? Was in Tesco Kingston today (Friday) and they are giving them away. They told me they have boxes and boxes. I counted when I got home and I had 22 packs!!!

    My little boys will be made up.:D

    Also, we are thinking of geting some work done around our home - possibly including new kitchen, knocking down a cupboard, bricking up a doorway - you get the idea.

    Don't have a clue where to start. Anyone know any good builders in the area????

    Might have been my imagination, but when I turned into Bletchley Tesco yesterday I think I spotted a B&M Home stores banner over the old MFI/Lee Longlands unit next to Matalan which might be interesting, didn't have time to look though!

    Am I the only one who didn't know Dunelm had opened a store on the Winterhill Trading estate? (Near Wickes)
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    Please check whoever you use is on the Gas Safe Register - this replaced Corgi a couple of years ago.

    If they are not, they cannot work with gas.

    Thanks Gilly. i checked on the gas safe site (i just wanted to check that the gas-safe logo on their paperwork was legit!). it took a while but i eventually found the chap concerned (not the easiest site to find your way round sherlock.gif lol)! he's registered so i can sleep easy tonight :j

    We went in the weekend it opened - MUCH better than the Dunstable one (but that's not saying much when you consider Dunstable on the whole.)
