Retaining wall consent: $20,000
Hi neighbours,
This Christchurch couple is getting some attention after they discovered the cost of consenting a retaining wall on their property could equal the budget for the build.
Is this just the cost of doing things right? Or do you think it's excessive? And do you know of anyone dealing with similar issues in Hamilton?
Feel free to call us on (07) 849-9666 or email news@waikatotimes.co.nz if you'd like to discuss your situation.
