Kitchen repair company Plastic Surgeon has been nominated at the National Recycling Awards 2011. The business is a finalist in the waste minimisation category, after its work on features such as kitchen sinks was regarded for adhering to strong sustainability and energy standards. Rob Mouser, managing director of Plastic Surgeon, said Our team will work to avoid the need to replace damaged items, thereby reducing the huge volume of material sent to landfill every week. The organisation repairs a wide selection of different installations, ranging from kitchen sinks to stone facades and shower doors. During their work, Plastic Surgeons employees maintain a strong focus on reducing carbon emissions and have prided themselves on the motto of dont skip it, fix it. The Energy Saving Trust has advised residents that smart meters could hold the key to lower household bills, as they calculate the exact amount of energy that is being consumed in homes.
