Take a look at a recent rock installation we completed for a customer. This project involved removing rock from existing flower beds and relocating them along a storage shed. When installing crushed rock or decorative stone material, here are some helpful tips. Materials should be installed over weed barrier material to help limit weed growth and reduce maintenance. By placing metal edging or larger stones along the edge, this will help keep stones from moving as well as grasses from encroaching upon the barrier.

When it comes to roofing materials, metal roofs offer unbeatable longevity. They can last up to 50 years, while traditional asphalt shingles typically last only 20-25 years. Plus, metal roofs are resistant to extreme weather, fire, and pests, making them a durable and cost-effective choice for both homes and businesses.

If It All Seems Too Slow? Sometimes, there may be long periods when nothing dramatic happens. It may even feel like nothing is moving at all. And yet when you stand back and take stock, there is progress, but it is gradual. It’s good to reflect on this. Is it really TOO slow, or is it the measured growth of the oak which will provide wood beams that can last 300 years? What do we value? This kind of process requires dedicated patience and attention to the small everyday things that facilitate growth. I know of a 4th generation hardwood timber merchant who works with a 130-year business plan. Can we learn from that scale of thinking? #liminalcoaching #gradual #patience #nurture #durable?

Termites are responsible for approximately $5 billion in property damage annually. They do not discriminate and can harm both businesses and residences. These silent pests can remain undetected for years while gradually destroying a building. Even structures built on concrete block foundations are not immune to termite infestations. Termites can navigate up a building, consuming insulation on their path to access wooden beams, roof supports, and more. Learn what treatments we offer ?? https://ow.ly/SUKf50QNGLq

It looks wonderful, but it’s killing your building! We are called out to numerous properties each year to help diagnose the cause of water ingress. The root cause of this can be down to the use of inferior materials, cracked/ damaged stonework or pointing which has failed / reached the end of it’s time. However, sometimes it can be the result of organic matter growing on your stonework. I agree, ivy climbing up your walls does look unique and picturesque, but there are several reasons why this practice is not recommended. As the ivy grows and attaches itself to the stone, it encourages moisture Over time, this moisture can cause further issues like damp / water ingress. Furthermore, once ivy takes hold of a stone house, it can be quite difficult to remove. Traces of it can be found on the historic fabric and of course in severe cases the roots of the ivy can penetrate deep into the masonry, requiring extensive and potentially expensive removal methods. In conclusion, while ivy may seem like a beautiful addition to a stone house, the potential damage and maintenance issues it can cause make it a poor choice for homeowners.

Concrete crumbles beneath wild grape vines, Nature's insurgents threading through The skeletal remains of industry. Mushroom mycelium whispers revolution Through the rotting beams of abandoned factories While raccoons hold midnight assemblies In boardrooms gone to seed. No masters here— Not profit, not progress, not the artificial order Of squared edges and measured time. The feral children of forgotten lots Dance to wind-song through broken windows, Their feet drumming ancient rhythms On floors where workers once shuffled. Kudzu commits beautiful sabotage, Pulling down power lines like puppet strings, Each tendril a tiny fist raised Against the machinery of control. The sparrows don't recognize property lines, The moss doesn't respect zoning laws, And the rain falls equally On penthouse and gutter. We are learning their wisdom now, As supply chains snap like autumn twigs And gardens sprout in highway medians— Every dandelion through concrete A small declaration of independence, Every fallen fence A border dissolved back to dust. Listen:? The cacophony of the unchained Is really harmony restored, Nature's chaos-order returning Like a tide that never truly ebbed, Only waited,? Patient as tree roots, Wild as water finding its level, Free.

It can be a daunting task when looking to extend your property - especially in areas where there is limited access to remove soil, or in root protection areas. Limited Access to Remove Spoil An extension starts in the ground, with its foundations. Traditionally, this involves digging a large pit or trench, removing all the soil, and pumping in large amount of concrete to create a solid base to build from. Not only is this time-consuming, but it can be extremely distruptive, dirty, dangerous and expensive. How will the old soil be removed? Where will new cement be mixed? How deep do you need to dig? If the only access to the rear of your property is through your house, all of this spoil needs to come through! The Solution Here at Target, we have the solution for all these issues - the?Heli Pile. The Heli Pile is a micropile system that is made from strong, clean and lightweight aluminium alloy. It is manufactured in one metre lengths, so we are able to carry through these sections and hammer them into the ground using our hand-held driver. Wherever we can walk we can pile! Once the Heli Piles are installed there are a number of options to allow the superstructure to be built. We can leave concrete pads to put posts on (typically 450 mm3), span the gap with a concrete ring beam (typically 450 mm2) or we can fix a bespoke metal cap to the top to create a foundation with no concrete at all! And, if you're only looking for a foundation for a temporary structure, we can even remove the Heli Pile to be recycled or reused. This makes the Heli Pile far more environmentally friendly than digging a hole and pouring in metres of concrete. #linkinbio?#howto?#constructionuk?#sitework?#sunshine?#oxfordshire?#foundations?#innovation?#tech?#environmentallyfriendly?#instadaily?#workmen?#bluecollar?#homeowners?#homebuyers?#homesellertips?#instalike?#trendingaudio?#tattoos?#fyp Cliffard Harris https://lnkd.in/e7BRGs-B
