Aqualine plasterboard

Andrew from Papakowhai

I realise this is a forlorn request but thought I'd try.

Does anyone have any aqualine plasterboard they would be willing to sell me?

I need 3 10mm, 1200x1800 (or 2400) sheets. I can repurpose 3600mm sheets, I'd only need 2 of those, as this is for a shower repair where I have to … View more
I realise this is a forlorn request but thought I'd try.

Does anyone have any aqualine plasterboard they would be willing to sell me?

I need 3 10mm, 1200x1800 (or 2400) sheets. I can repurpose 3600mm sheets, I'd only need 2 of those, as this is for a shower repair where I have to take the shower lining off which is likely to wreck the plasterboard behind so full height isn't needed

Happy to also use elephant plasterboard equivalent.

I waited 2 months for trade availability to be stymied by the gib crisis so I'm just hoping someone has some left over from a job.

Thanks, Andrew

Spicer Landfill is an important part of the infrastructure of Porirua City. Around 75,000 tonnes of waste goes into the landfill every year, which means it’s running out of space faster than expected.

Extending the landfill has been planned for since 2009. We’re now starting the resource consent process for approval to extend the landfill to meet our growing city’s needs.

"It seemed like a kotare kind of afternoon at the Pāuatahanui Inlet today! Trying to get nice and close to my Kingfisher friends as they were hunting for crabs as the evening was drawing in. At one stage, there were as many as 3 sitting on a piece of driftwood!
A lone spoonbill was spotted having a feed in the distance before it took off"
