Prepare For A Cold Surrey Winter

October is about to start, a chill is in the air and the days getting shorter. Now is the time of year that we all start thinking about keeping warm for the winter. We can look forward to the hot chocolate and Autumnal aesthetic that moves in but with rising prices from energy suppliers and the increase in the cost of living, there are naturally going to be concerns around the coming winter. In Surrey, the average price for a kWh of energy is £10.05 (based on data from 2018). You can see how well a fireplace can heat a room or your house here. Using alternatives to heat your home may be a viable option depending on what resources you have available. Log burning stoves can be a cost-effective choice for those with a natural supply or a cheap wholesale option available. Gas fires are a modern alternative to a fireplace and typically will run cheaper than an electric or wood fireplace but don’t produce the same environment that a traditional fireplace creates.

What To Do In Surrey This Winter

All across Surrey, towns and villages will host fantastic Christmas events, have wonderful decorations and displays, and host markets throughout December. We’ve previously written about things to do in Surrey in the Autumn if you want to catch some of this seasons activities. You can also take a look at the Visit Surrey website and get this years list of fun activities and events that will happen across Surrey. This year there are some exciting activities including a favourite of ours; taking a llama for a winter walk – in Hambledon, there is a herd of llamas that visitors can take for a stroll through the Surrey Hills and soak up the beautiful scenery and create some wonderful memories with your friends and family.

Testimonials

“A no fuss professional who knew exactly what he was doing and carried out work to a very high standard. He didn’t just disconnect the supply, but removed the pipe to ensure it was obscured from view for new installation, so absolutely no need to guide on the aesthetics, which means a lot to us ladies! He protected all surrounding area with dust sheets and hovered up afterwards – what more could y… Read more

“Adam the owner was so helpful in advising us around our log burner decisions and answered all my questions (there were a lot!) without any bother. He was able to advise what would work best in the space that we had and talked through various options, we are really impressed with his service. The end result is great and we can’t wait to use the new burner!”
New log burner fitted and chimney lined.Guildford, Surrey.

“This is the second stove we’ve had fitted by Wakeford’s, the first installation was fairly simple with the second being more complicated, both installations were carried out very professionally, on time and once commissioned, (apart from our new stove installation) we wouldn’t have known they had been here, spotless. The fitters were very pleasant, Adam was very accommodating and made sure all … Read more
