Roofer and builder needed - Urgent
Hi all,
I have an urgent roofing and building problem. While away up north, one of my carpeted rooms flooded from what appears to be an internal gutter overflowing/leaking and the water travelling down within the house wall and existing on the carpet. It is not obvious where the leak is up above.
I have tried ringing many roofers but none reply, others haven't turned up and the closest I can get anyone to do an inspection is the end of January! The carpet has been dried by Jaes but that will not fix the causal problem - the wall is still showing moisture.
Even the insurance company has no recommendations.
I need a roofer and probably a builder to take the room lining down and probably replace the gutter.
Recommendations please preferably before the next downpour!
Thanks,
Diana

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