Don't use Edwards & Hardy

Chris from Nelson South

Edwards & Hardy handle roof maintenance. I have used them to clean moss from my roof. About $500. Last time, they said they had spotted missing rivets and flashing needing repair. Cost would be $3000 upfront. Because they need to use scaffolding. For moss they don't need scaffolding.

So I paid $3000 upfront. Later, a young guy came round and banged around on the roof for 20 minutes. Next day, an invoice came through. $3000 again.

I protested about the repeat demand, already paid. And also, how come no scaffolding? No explanation, no apology, just an 'adjustment' which boiled down to a random payment from me of $1000+. For 20 minutes work by one young man with a ladder and no specialised equipment.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
