roofing scam

Mick from Glenview

Just a word of warning. I got home to find a quote on my doorstep from a sales rep for Edwards & Hardy by the name of ( not allowed to tell you )Telling me that I have lichen and moss growing on my "Tile Roof " that is going to cause rust. He will fix it for $395. Just a couple of problems here.
1... I don't have a tile roof
2.... I was on my steel roof over the Christmas break and I saw no moss or lichen.
3... His company tell me that there reps are not allowed to use ladders so how did he check my roof?
So be warned ,If this guy knocks on your door send him away
Just because he works for a well known company does not make him an honest person. I hope he does not catch out any of our older family so please warn them.

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!

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

If the races gallop off to Tamahere, “exciting things” could happen with the sizeable city site they leave behind, property experts say.

On Tuesday, the Waikato Times revealed Waikato Thoroughbred Racing’s (WTR) plans to buy 150ha of farmland south of Hamilton to house the region’s three racing clubs at a new purpose-built racecourse and event centre.
