Builder Quote Required / Rectification & Semi Completed Work

Gillian from Forrest Hill

Hi, I'm hoping someone is interesting in helping me. Our builder has basically done a runner without fully completing one single job (this was a home renovation). Nothing has been finished so he would now owe us thousands and obviously we are living in a semi complete home. I am looking to take him to the Disputes Tribunal but need a quote to complete the outstanding work. If I win I am hoping they will have to pay me so I can get "you" to complete the work - I don't want them back. I've been chasing them since December last year now.

Please let me know if you're a builder and could provide me with a quote to complete everything. We are in Forrest Hill. Thank you soo much!!!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
