Blog bits:

We are receiving an increase in bedbugs problems, due to people travelling more in their work and socially. Ring to discuss any problems you may have, remember this is not an indication of cleanliness of your home or personnel hygiene.

Paul Toplass - 22nd March 2010

We're close to finishing our busiest time of the year, and we've been taken aback by the numbers of businesses talking about their 'Scores on the Doors' and how many stars they've got. Some Councils have been running a star rating system for a while now and it is starting to hit home to some businesses now how important their reputation is. This seems to become more of an issue when a local newspaper runs a Freedom of Information request form a Council to find the best and worst premises. I'll be doing a talk on the impact of the Scores on the Doors next month in Loughborough. In the mean time, if any business would like our help to get the best star rating then please ring me on 07976 366510.
