    Paperclip Software

    Am thinking of taking this on despite the fact that I'm not entirely comfortable with it being rented as a service and that my data is on someone else's server. its 1200 a year but saves me the hassle of updating the MCS manual and searching new master documents. On the plus side if they have...

We've had two surveys done and both have highlighted shading due to the property next door and a large chimney on the front of our property. This is perfectly...
