Wellington

I have three bedrooms which need re-painting. I also have a few extra smaller painting jobs including: removing the paint from two doors/trim in the family room, and painting two exterior doors. Since my house is not brand new (50 years) some extra prep may be required. References requested.

Benchtop - what to do?

New Cupboard Doors

My formica benchtop has a few burn spots on it due to hot liquids and the odd frying pan. Just considering a few options - the current colour is grey with a "fake marble" look. Looking at a few options for quotes. 1. Replace with granite? 2. Resurface with current colour? 3. Resurface the whole thing with a different colour?

Heat Transfer Fan and Ducting

I want a quote to install a duct and fan that can extract warm air from the lounge and transfer it to the moisture master unit about 6 metres away. This will enable the unit to then distribute the warm air, rather than having to use...

External ducting for existing rangehood

Wellington

We have a rangehood in our kitchen which is in recirculating mode but is capable of being externally ducted. It's in the centre of the house, and external access for the ducting would either have to go through the roofspace of an adjoining bathroom then a bedroom and out through the wall (about 10m - our preferred option) or up the wall of the void above the kitchen, then through the roof (about 15m, not our preferred option for aesthetic reasons). Other ducting already exists in the bathroom/...

The smallest joinery job in the world...

Hutt Valley

I'm looking for a mitre legend... I broke a piece of skirting when I was lifting old kitchen vinyl...thinking that I could just go an buy another bit proved impossible. After much searching, the closest match I could get is using a plain piece of rimu with a moulding on top. It's pretty close and I'm happy with the combo. Thing is I don't have a mitre saw, and the whole idea makes me nervous. So what I need is a mitre genius to pop over and cut the right angle (it isn't a 90degree corne...

Fix leaky roof - 2 Parts

Manukau

We have a 1960's weather board house, with a 1970's extension. The roof is Atlas concrete tiles. In the extension, the ceiling is white ceiling tile, made of paper or wood pulp. In one spot, the paint is breaking up, and it is spongy to press on. Today with the rain it started dripping yellow liquid. Insulation was laid down in the last 12 months, but the flaking was there before that. It's in a potentially tricky spot near the outside wall, so not much roof space. That's the...
