Unprofessional Insulation Company
Hi All, just to bring to your attention a situation that recently happened to us.
We needed sound insulation to be installed in the ceiling of the unit below ours. After two site visits by Stephen from Insultech
Insulation, during which he assured us and our neighbours below us, that Insultech had successfully installed insulation in many units like ours. We booked them for a last Friday the 5th of June. The installer arrived an hour late, drilled 10 holes, 20mm in diameter, in a pefectly healthy ceiling and then concluded that the product should not be installed.
We received a refund of the deposit but also a refusal to repair or contribute to the repair of the ceiling, work requiring both a plasterer and a painter.
We would also have appreciated suggestions of other options but Stephen became defensive and rude. Communication with Insultech generally was slow, confused or non-existent.
That they don't have a list of preferred painters and plasterers after 28 years in business, and a family company at that, is also both surprising and concerning.
We wouldn't recommend Insultech to anyone.
Seeking house sitting with a cat
Hi, I'm interested to house sit for anyone around Remuera or nearby suburbs over the holiday weeks. 🎄🎁
I have a cat I'd like to spend time with as I'm not allowed to have him where I live currently.
My cat minder is going overseas for three weeks from 22 December 2024.
I'm honest, respectful of others privacy and property. I'm very clean and tidy and I will happily do jobs like basic garden work while you're away to keep busy. 🙂
I'm keeping options open reaching out on Neighbourly as well as signing up on a house sitting website.
If you or you know of anyone who's looking for a house sitter please feel free to contact me on the below.
