Glue and screw flooring

Trudi from Churton Park

I am seeking advise? I am having new carpet put down however the second story needs the floor glued and screwed and the carpet taken up before the new carpet is laid. So I need someone to glue and screw the floor with references for this task and to take the carpet up I also need a couple of strong careful people to move furniture out for me into the garage then move it back in after the carpet has gone down. There maybe several days between the carpet coming up and going back down. The carpet layers are booked for the 2nd of March so am looking at the moving of the furniture to start with on the week before this probably Wednesday 24th February The removal of the carpet and glueing and screwing taking place on the Thursday 25th Friday 26th February. Do you know anyone who is able to do this work that you would recommend?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
