Conrecte Tile Roof repair,reseal,repaint

Hi, We have a 2-bedroom ex-state house with a concrete tile roof. We knew our roof was in 'average' condition but this ridiculous winter has exposed several leaks which we want to get sorted asap. There are a few steel plate patching jobs already up on there but we would feel better with a proper overhaul. Would like ideally someone to come replace offending tiles reseal and repaint. Well at least the first two based on price. cheers, Robert

Tiling: Re grouting Shower

Floor and Wall Tiling

The grout in our shower is leaking, it needs to be removed and redone & silicone re applied. We've got big tiles (600x300mm ish) laid in a traditional brickwork pattern on the walls, and square tiles laid in diamond pattern on the floor. Shower is approx 1.2 x 1m, tiled on 2 walls and the floor. Currently we've got electrical tape covering the grout so we're sure it is the grout that is the problem. Needs to be flexible grout & silicone, don't believe tiles need removing though.

Microwave repair

Other (Appliance Repair)

Waimakariri

This is an odd request. We have a built-in Whirlpool microwave that needs repairing. I've spoken to Saxon's, who are happy to repair it, but they want me to bring it to them. My problem is I don't know how to get it out of the cabinet. It's part of a oven/microwave installation - oven underneath, and matching microwave above. So, I need some advice. Can anyone tell me how the thing can be removed? I've had a good look, & it really isn't obvious. I fully appreciate it might be hard to d...

Redesign front entrance of house; steps and/or deck

House Design

House Repair & Maintenance

We currently have wooden front steps which need replacing. They are not joined to the front deck, which opens off the lounge. We would like someone to design an attractive entrance for our house which may be just replacement steps, or may extend the deck by 1m to the front door and incorporate the steps. If possible the design process would also include revamping the gardens at the front entrance. The house is on a sloping section and the gardens are flooded most of the time with runoff.

Help with Tivo unit and needing help with signal (satellite dish)??

Good Morning, I currently have Telstra Clear set up at home with a satellite dish but my partner and I want to save some money, so we are considering TIVO. As TIVO works on a normal aerial, we think that TIVO wont work in our area of Karori. As a normal aerial at our house does not give us very good reception. That was the reason for going to telstraclear in the first place. When we went to talk to the lady at the Telecom store in town, she said that TIVO may be able to be connected...

We have a 550sqm section (NOT all lawn, however, I am unsure of the 'exact' size that needs redoing. Would probably need to come out and quote it - front, side and back of house. We would like to have our current lawn turned and have it all redone so it's nice for our little boy this summer. We also have a section that we want 'dug out' and leveled off to the rest of the section. We've noticed there's a bit of 'fill' stuff in there (bricks?) from the last people. The area we want leveled is...
