Storing DIY tools Ideal for golf

WHETHER you have a modest set of DIY tools, such as paint and brushes, to perform simple tasks and updates to your home, or a large tool kit that would make any decorating expert jealous, it’s essential to store your items appropriately. Common DIY supply storage errors result in destroyed materials and tools that are no longer functional, as well as possible safety issues from improper storage.

Storing products next to ra diators is not only detrimental to the quality of your products, but also dangerous. When radi ators heat up, any adjacent liquids and soluble sub stances are at risk of altering consistency because of the increased temperature

Additionally, aerosols, for example, can quickly overheat and expand, causing their containers to explode, rup ture, or even blow up, endan gering everyone in the house and inflicting damage to walls, furniture, and other goods.

Experts also warn against storing your DIY products in bathroom cabinets. Anywhere with increased moisture and damp air can spoil liquid supplies like paint and glue. Cabinets and cupboards that aren't subject to changes in temperature are ideal for storing your decorating essentials.

Stacking supplies, such as cans of paint, on top of each other or too close together can cause serious injury or damage as well as leading to spillages and leaks. Instead, create compact shelving that provides a firm platform for each heavy object, making them less prone to move

It’s also essential to clean your tools before storing them, however tempting it may be to store paint brushes without washing them first. After cleaning them by soaking in water, put paint brushes in a jar with the handles down, or hang on the wall or pegboard to maintain the bristles.

THE province of Almería boasts a number of golf courses, particularly in the areas of Mojacar, Roquetas de Mar, and Alboran Golf. These courses feature beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea, well-maintained fairways, and challenging designs suitable for players of different skill levels. Almerimar Golf is a 27-hole golf course located on a five-star resort on the Almeria Coastline, this golf course was designed by the professional South African golfer Gary Player. Golf Mojacar is another course in the area designed by Ramon Espinosa, it has stunning uninterrupted sea views.

Every time a new course is built you can be sure that there will be a development of housing, often a mix of apartments, townhouses, and villas, and those who purchase a property around a new golf course can nor- mally expect to negotiate very good club membership deals.

It seems almost perverse that an area that doesn’t have a huge amount of annual rainfall and can be very hot for those enjoying the pastime is looking to build more courses, but you can reckon if these companies are prepared to invest 10s of millions of euros, their research will have shown that the market exists.

Golfers are often happy to travel a reasonable distance in order to play on different courses and as they become more skilled, they want to be on the most challenging courses.

If you enjoy golfing in a less crowded and more laid-back environment, Almeria could be a good choice for you. September is a popular month for golfers and the region will attract many golfers during that period.
