Do you need a builder?

Gordon from Paraparaumu

My wife and I are just coming to the end of a comprehensive house renovation. Removing all ceiling and wall gib, insulating throughout regibbing, new electrics and plumbing, bifold doord onto a new deck, new wardrobes,......we have been living with a neighbour for almost 4 months (she deserves a medal) but it has been so woth it.
I have nothing but praise for Chris and Georgia Darby of Blueprint Projects and Construction. Chris has proved to be a hard working, talented, honest and thorough builder and project manager, Georgia has reported back on progress against budget on a regular basis as well as making many useful suggestions regarding design options - a very talented couple. I recommend their company without hesitation and reservation and would be very willing to discuss our experience more should the need arise.

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.

Packaging Boxes

Sushil from Waikanae

Hi,
Does anybody have packaging boxes ( not banana boxes) ? I thought I would ask before I go and purchase them.
Thanks.
Regards,
Sushil
