Wouldn’t it be nice to have someone you could call on at any time of the day to help you with mundane tasks that you simply don’t have time to attend to? Wouldn’t it be marvellous if that person could help you sort through the myriad of tasks that you face on a daily basis…indeed anything from clearing out the garage and paying the house bills, through to booking flights and arranging for cars to be serviced?

Williams Services, a local specialist in TV, satellite and electrical installations, has just opened up a new home services business, to help clients tackle small "handyman" jobs in the home.
Although Williams Services was initially set up in 2009 to help clients with their TV installations, owner Daryl Williams has often been asked whether he could help out with other jobs around the home. Always keen to help customers wherever he can, he has found that more and more customers have been asking his staff to provide handyman services. So earlier this month he decided it was time to formalize this side of the business and create a new division within his company called “Williams Home Services”.

That's it! The corrections are made and the new recommendations have been added in the 9th edition of Know-it-all passport®. The Imprimerie Nationale Rochat Baumann (thanks to Jacques and his team) in Geneva have done a great job. It takes 4 weeks of printing and 6 weeks of binding. This 10 week-long print process brings you the quality item that you will keep on hand for the next two years. There are also two bookmarks on ribbons that are hand-inserted by a little old lady near Fribourg! Get your copy at one of our distribution points for your copy hot-off-the-press!
