YOUR FREE GUIDE TO THE BEST LOCAL BUSINESSES
Vega Baja
Issue 22 Spring / Summer 2023
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
Welcome to issue 22 of the Professional Services Magazine, Veja Baja edition. Bringing you the best professional trades and services, this is once again the Nº1 business guide in the Vega Baja region.
Now in its eleventh year, the Focus on Professional Services continues to grow in popularity and is dedicated to showcasing local companies and professionals in your area. Keep it to hand because you never know when you will need one of the trades, products or services offered.
Remember, you can also view the Professional Services Magazine as a digital version at www.femalefocusonline.com with direct ‘live’ links to the advertisers’ websites.
If you are on the move and need a number or address and don’t have a magazine to hand just go to business.femalefocusonline.com/ where you will find all the businesses with full contact details. I have the shortcut saved to my mobile home screen so I am never without a number.

What our clients are saying about us:
We chose this agent over others because of the way Everett sat us down and fully explained all the costs involved some of which we have never heard of. His value of the house was realistic unlike one of the others which really over priced... He found me a buyer almost instantly. Everett kept us up to date at all times so we were always well informed. Because of Everett’s professionalism, helpfulness, attitude and dedication we feel that he has become a friend. If we could give 7 star rating we would. J. Ness. June 2022.

In climates that see drought and heat for much of the year, like we have here in Southern Spain it may prove very difficult to maintain a natural lawn, as the grass will require too much water or relief from the heat. All of our garden range grass are made with soft and durable materials that are made to look and feel just like the real thing. Artificial grass can withstand what natural lawns cannot, while still retaining all of the aesthetic appeal that a natural lawn has to offer. If you have a roof terrace, or wish to transform your swimming pool area, we have artificial grass to suit every need and purpose. Choose from our range for the best grass to perfectly suit your requirements.
Mini Golf installations
Within the last 3 to 4 years the demand for mini golf and private garden putting areas has increased. This is due partly to the price decrease that we are able to provide, but mainly people can see the quality and imagination that we put into all of our installs. All the materials that we use are top quality. Our flags are a strong nylon, flag poles and holes are polyurethane, and flag bases are aluminium. All the grass we use is provided by Tiger Turf, who are world leaders in the improvement and manufacturing of synthetic grass.
What’s even better is all of our products are covered by an 8 year TIGER TURF manufacturer’s warranty, and we provide a separate 2 year installation warranty. So you can be even more confident that your new artificial lawn will last as long as any real grass surface, with a fraction of the maintenance.
