How to Choose the Right Towel Warmer for Your Home

A towel warmer turns a simple bathroom upgrade into everyday comfort. It keeps towels dry, prevents damp smells, and adds a touch of warmth that makes each shower or bath feel more relaxing.

Choosing one depends on more than just looks. Size, power source, and placement all influence how well it performs. A small bathroom may need a compact wall-mounted model, while a larger home might benefit from a dual-fuel system that works year-round.

Over time, these contaminants can trigger allergies, worsen sinus issues, and affect sleep quality.

As a professional cleaning company, our mattress cleaning process is designed to thoroughly sanitize and refresh your mattress while ensuring the material remains safe and undamaged. Using industrial-grade HEPA extraction machines, UV sterilisation, and anti-...

If you're in the market to buy or sell a home, you may have noticed that the housing market in the South West has cooled over the past year. Homes are still selling, but it’s taking longer, and sellers aren’t seeing the same rush of offers that appeared during the post-lockdown boom. Higher mortgage rates and fewer people relocating from big cities mean buyers are being more cautious, and many are waiting to see what happens next.

So what does this mean for sellers across Devon? Essentially it means timing and strategy matter more than before. When the property market feels slow...
