Exterior painting of barge boards and gable ends.

There are 2 gable ends and barge boards that need to be touched up. The paint is coming off the barge boards and will need to be stripped back, sanded and painted. We also want to repaint the gable ends a new colour. A rough estimate of gable size is about 4 meters wide and the other about 6m. Would like this done before winter if possible and would like a quote.

Leaking sink and toilet basin pipe install

Renovation & Repair

Waltham, Christchurch

Two smallish plumbing jobs for a qualified plumber. 1. Kitchen sink seems to have developed a leak which appears to be coming from where the sink outlet meets the down-pipe (possibly the seal?) 2. Toilet basin needs to have a new (supplied) outlet unit fitted. See the photos.

Landscaping

Landscape Design

North Dunedin, Dunedin

We have a relatively unusable area of land beside our house - currently it's basically landfill (full of rocks and rubbish) with plants grown over it. We really want some ideas on how to make it more usable (either built up and turned into lawn or put deck over it are our initial thoughts), and to move forward with something that makes better use of this space for our family.

Insulation removal and attic sanitation

Residential Insulation

Ngaio, Wellington

We've struggled with rats for a couple of years and nothing has really worked. We want the old insulation in the attic to be removed professionally (we have young children) and for the attic to be sanitised afterwards. We will then look for someone to close all the gaps and eaves as a separate job, but if this is something you can help with, we want to hear from you. Please don't contact us if you offer standard pest control services as this is a bigger job.

Basic retaining wall 0.5 to 1.5m high. 5m long.

Landscape Retaining Walls (Below 1.5m)

Karaka Bays, Wellington

We have a fairly steep bank on the back of our house. After removing unwanted weeds we discovered it to be quite uneven and already partially eroded. Our current thought is to build a retaining wall up to 1.5m high to allow the remaining slope to be less steep. We'd like to start with only the first 5m in length.
