WANT A BETTER WAY TO REPLACE DAMAGED, LEAKING & CORRODED WATER PIPES? Non-invasive with almost no digging and chopping Very little downtime No replacing of expensive tiles and sanitary ware 10 year warranty with a 50 year life expectancy.

RELINING VS REPIPING is the answer NONSTRUCTURAL POTABLEWATER LINES

STRUCTURAL NON-POTABLEWATER LINES

The epoxy coating process is an economical and efficient alternative to traditional pipe system replacement. Our technology restores aged, corroded piping systems and copper pipes that have pinhole leaks. Once the epoxy coating is applied to the interior of the pipe, it will seal and protect the system from further deterioration, dramatically extending the systems life.

Non-Pressurised pipe systems are usually Mains, Horizontal Laterals, Vertical Stacks, Sanitary Systems, Storm / Roof Drains, Vent Systems, Processed / Industrial / Chemical Piping, and other Waste Systems. These systems require a different approach to achieve the desired result.

We deploy a pull-in system that efficiently draws the new liner into the system. Once in place it is expanded and the liner restores the pipe infrastructure to better than new with a 10-year warranty.

After relining your pipes you will have a brand new pipe within your original, deteriorated host pipe.

Pipe relining just makes sense. The technology is tested, proven and safe.

GARAGE DOOR Maintenance, service, installation and repairs.

FRICO DIENSTE Pty (Ltd)

The garage door is the single biggest moving object on your property. It weighs 60kg for a single door to 200+kg for a double wooden door. To open the door a torsion spring assists you and takes most of the weight of the door. Two steel cables both sides of the door carry the weight. If the cables rust the door may fall on a person or vehicle causing severe injury or damage.

I will service your garage doors and replace parts to ensure the safety of your loved ones.

Toad in the Tunnel Violent taxi strikes, burning buses, killer heat waves overseas and figh ng all over.

Oy vey, where’s the good news?

So I thought I would tell you about a small creature called the western leopard toad and what is being done to help it.

Heart-warming stuff.

The only places in the whole world where you can find this toad is around the Cape Peninsula and from the Overberg to the Agulhas Plain. That’s it.

There is some bad news first. The western leopard toad (Amietophrynus pantherinus) is endangered. Like so many wild creatures, its numbers have shrunk as human numbers have expanded. More people, more ci es, farms, roads etc so less natural environment. Habitat destruc on is one of the main reasons why these toad numbers have dwindled.

The other reason is all the obstacles we have created – roads, walls, electric fences – built between the toads and the wetlands.

When western leopard toads mate – and it is high ma ng season right now – they move towards vleis and wetlands to breed.

Two hundred years ago that would have been easy, but today they have to cross roads with speeding vehicles, get through suburbs and clamber over walls and electric fences.

Every year hundreds of toads are squashed by vehicles.

Others never reach the wetlands because of all the obstacles in their way. So their numbers dwindle.

Now the good news. A few decades ago the conserva on authori es realised these toads were declining and the alert went out. The public responded wonderfully. Toad support groups sprung up in the peninsula and volunteers would go out on rainy nights, par cularly in the August breeding season, pick up toads and carry them across the busy roads. So sweet.

They put up “Cau on: Toads Crossing” signs on roads where toads o en cross in ma ng season.

But this is the best good news: A partnership between the City of Cape Town and Nature Connect have built six li le toad-sized tunnels under one of the roads that bisects the False Bay Nature Reserve – a road where the toads cross en masse in ma ng season to get to the vleis. Sadly, many would get squashed by cars.

So the tunnels were built as part of the Western Leopard Toad Underpass Project, and last week they completed the sixth tunnel.

The toads use the tunnels and apparently there are far fewer squashed toads now than before.

I just love that.

And why are these western leopard toads special? They are regarded as “indispensably valuable” because they are an indicator species. That means their presence tells us about the health of the environment. They need plenty of insects and snails to eat, and clean water to breed in, so if the toads are around, it is an indica on that the surrounding ecosystem is pre y healthy.

Some people can’t stand toads. Perhaps they should heed what 19th century US writer Celia Thaxter said: “The toad has no superior as a destroyer of noxious insects, and he possesses no bad habits and is en rely inoffensive himself. Every owner of a garden should treat him with utmost hospitality.”
