Tree House roof - ideas and materials needed

David from Tawa

I'm building a tree house for the kids and I want to put a roof on it to help keep off the rain, pine needles and bird poop. I put up a tarpaulin last weekend and it's already ripped.

I put up a tarpaulin last weekend and it's already ripped. I was thinking maybe some corrugated iron or plastic or something. The old rotten tree house I tore down had some flat laminated wooden sheets but they had bowed and weren't very effective.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Full fares will return across the region on July 1 now that New Zealand has moved to alert level 1 and physical distancing restrictions have been lifted.

Fares, including the handling of cash, were temporarily suspended to support the Government’s public health response to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Metlink has been working very closely with the Government on the safest and fairest time to reintroduce full fares to passengers across the region.

Advice from the Ministry of Health has confirmed it is safe to handle cash, provided this is done responsibly. Good hand hygiene remains essential, with passengers and staff continuing to wash or sanitise their hands as soon as they can during, before and after travel. To learn more, read the full release on our website below.

There are a lot of reasons to dig up a road, unfortunately! Here’s one of the less common belowground infrastructure renewals we do.

Digger Operator Layton is removing an old air valve block on the bulk water main running from Naenae Reservoir. The team put in a new, bigger air valve (replacing the one just visible in the wooden chamber) then constructed a new concrete chamber and manhole cover for better service and maintenance access.
