"This beautiful drawing was a present from my lovely daughter, Caitlin, for my birthday. It's a portrait of a chap who frequents a large tree at the back of our neighbour's section - it borders our section at the back so he is often peering into our yard - this is the view we normally have of him. I've always valued the handcrafted gifts my children give me - looking at them in chronological order is like viewing the ascent of man. This one's going straight to the trophy room. Kererū/wood pigeon (Hemiphaga novaeseelandiae)."

It has an xtra loud volume, which can be boosted further, a red flashing light when there is a call or voicemail and large buttons.
The digital answering system has a button you can push to play the messages back more slowly.
It comes with an extra cordless handset.
Some time ago I bought a second accessory cordless handset which has a contact that needs seeing to ( I already bought a new battery) so I can offer that free of charge to go with the system. Phone system comes with owner’s manuals.

HOME MAINTENANCE TIP 🎯

Jeff Jewell from New Vision Enterprises Ltd.

When the time comes you will wish you knew this one! 👍

The unexpected happens, make sure you are prepared! 👨‍🔧 AND make sure the valve actually turns the flow off! (sometimes they don't)!

The unexpected happens, make sure you are prepared! 👨‍🔧 AND make sure the valve actually turns the flow off! (sometimes they don't)!

Where to look for your council water toby:
- Normally on the boundary of your property
- Often aligning with one side of your property
- Sometimes buried (carefully use a probe to check)

Where to look for your house toby
- Often close to your hose tap
- Often buried 🤔

If you need a hand, give us a call, we're happy to help! 04 479 4181
