Job not up to scratch?
If you have problems with services or products, you may be protected by the CGA. You should expect services to be carried out with appropriate competency and skills, and completed to a reasonable standard.
For example, Jan had two painters provide quotes for some painting and wallpaper work. She chose her painter and the work was completed. Two weeks later she noticed bumps and lumps in the wallpaper, that she hadn’t noticed at the time the bill was paid.
With a faulty product, you can return it and ask for a repair, replacement or refund. But that’s not so easy with a service! But Jan’s story ended well, the painter came back and rectified the problem at no cost to Jan.

Stolen Packages
Hello Neighbours,
I wanted to inform everyone about an incident that occurred today. At approximately 9:42 AM, I received two packages. Shortly after, around 9:52 AM, an individual trespassed into my yard and stole these packages.
The person didn't seem to notice or care about the cameras installed. Please stay vigilant and keep an eye out for any suspicious activity in the area.
Stay safe :)
