Okehampton Show you did not disappoint! What a scorcher! ☀️

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by the stand for a chat. It was great to catch up with our customers old and new, catch up with other local businesses and enjoy everything the show had to offer.

Thanks to everyone involved in organising another fantastic show — we’re already looking forward to the next one!

🧠 The winner of our kids' quiz will be announced shortly - thank you to all who took part.

🔨 We had a 3-way tie of 5 hits in our 'nail in the log' challenge. 3 of you managed to hit the 6" nail all the way in just 5 hits. This will be making a return at our next show so get practicing - will it be beaten?

We will be Holsworthy & Stratton Show on Thursday 27th August where you will find us on stand 11 - another great show and a first for us so do pop in and say hi.

A freshen up for this farm courtyard and an amazing transformation. We installed new drainage, underground ducting and services. Adjusted levels and falls to ensure good surface water direction and then laid new concrete adding some detail to give it a more domestic look but retaining the durability of concrete.
