Looking for an intimate cocktail bar in Eastbourne? PRIV @ The Works brings together classic cocktails, refreshing spritzes, wines and spirits in a welcoming Station Street setting. Perfect for after-work drinks, date nights or catching up with friends without the bustle of a larger bar.
Give existing kitchens and furnishings a completely different look with M&C Spraying & Repairs, specialists in kitchen and furniture spraying in Eastbourne. Professional spray finishing offers a practical way to modernise cabinetry and furniture while retaining items that still work well.
We recently moved and decided rather than get new windows we would have them sprayed we also had the garage door and conservatory sprayed. Martin really knew his stuff when it came to colours we were so pleased with his work and his prices that he then sprayed our radiators so we didn’t have to replace them and also some fitted wardrobes. Outstanding service thank you, you saved us a fortune.

Looking for a more comfortable home without relying on energy-hungry portable heaters or fans? S. Mercer Plumbing specialises in professionally installed air conditioning and air source heat pumps, helping Eastbourne homeowners enjoy efficient heating and cooling with straightforward advice from an experienced local installer.
Sam came to carry out the annual service of our Baxi boiler but, after 14 years, it had reached its end-of-life. We discussed the options and decided to go for a Baxi HP60 Air Source Heat Pump, plus the associated controls, radiator upgrades and a new cylinder. The bulk of the work was completed in 5 days, with Sam doing an excellent installation job, including some fine bespoke plumbing for the new cylinder in the airing cupboard.
For part of the week, Sam was assisted by Dean, a highly competent electrician who had the necessary skills to undertake the electrical elements of the new system.
As the installation process moved towards completion, there were a couple of ‘Baxi’ issues that had to be resolved in order to have the whole system functioning properly. This was where Sam applied his impressive problem-solving skills to resolve the issues and achieve a fully operational system.
The heat pump was installed during the summer heatwave, when we were only heating the water. We’re now in late autumn and the whole system is ticking away smoothly. To date, we’re very pleased with how it all works and prefer it to our previous gas boiler. We’re expecting it to continue performing well during the winter months.
For anyone considering the change from boiler to heat pump, we would recommend Sam to carry out the installation efficiently and in a personalised, friendly and courteous manner.
