    A few years ago, I converted part of the basement into an office with a kitchenette – but without its own sink. Since then, my wife has been running her insurance office there as insurance broker Florian. In the last few years and months, I have been more concerned with the entrance area around the estate agent’s office.

    With the installation of my automatic and retractable lawn irrigation system from Hunter, I really did something good for my lawn this summer. Depending on the weather, my lawn could and can be watered and I have no problems with bare or burnt patches in the lawn even during longer dry periods.
