Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

The below phots - start to finish 7 working days. widened the cupboards, rebuilt insitue, new tops, paint and splash back.

During this past month I have performed many repairs, small building and upgrading jobs in several homes on the North Shore, my area work base. I’m a Sole Charge operation, all discussion and quoting, project management and product purchase, then doing the work myself.
I have a fellow builder mate to help on some of my jobs, between us we have at least 90 years experience, not bad for 2 guys. I’ve been swinging a hammer for over 5o years and Mike 40 years.
I specialise in small jobs, all those little things that should be adjusted, repaired or replaced and you keep putting off, simply because you don’t know how or where to get your maintenance brought up to scratch.


Please realise it’s way more cost effective to keep up to date with your maintenance than leave it and find that the original problem has now helped wear out something else. Now you have more than one piece to be fixed and subsequently, you guessed it, the job will cost more.
I don’t charge for my first visit, yes, Free. We can discuss your maintenance job be it big or small.
Feel free to contact me.
