Builder needed

Karin from Upper Moutere

Hi all,
we urgently need a builder for a one-day job. We have a half bathtub, sunken, that needs to be taken out and the floor needs to be closed with marine plywood. This work needs to go hand in hand with our plumber, who will install the drain and new shower. Rest of flooring (vinyl) is sorted but the plumber's mate, the builder, is swamped now, like so many others, and can't do the job any more. It is a small area, about 6 sqm only. If anyone knows of someone or is able to help, please contact me, Karin on 027 2747872. PS any time till mid or even end of November is fine!

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

Find out more about the scheme online.
