Is it time to install that extra heat pump or upgrade. Or when you step out of the shower is that bathroom heater really not doing the job anymore? If you have a lovely roaring fire is the heat getting thru the rest of the house? Heat transfer kits are your easy option for achieving that. Sick of crying damp windows and fancy a ventilation system? Is it feeling dark and dingy in a certain room of the house and you need the lift of extra lighting or updated to LED lights? Patrick from Elusion can come and quote to make Winter a little nicer.

It's a topic of discussion that crops up every year or so and in some places, using a top sheet when you make your bed is almost unheard of. What's your preference?

You're invited to One Christchurch - an opportunity to discover central city architecture through free, one-off access to special buildings, as well as a range of themed walking tours.

As part of the programme, presented by Te Pūtahi and supported by Resene, three inner-city school buildings will open their doors for one day only.

From Japanese-influenced timber architecture and a sky playground to a dining hall steeped in tradition, these buildings are engaging examples of how design impacts the students’ experiences at school.

The programme kicks off on Sunday 30 June with The Cathedral Grammar Junior School and is followed by two other school buildings opening in the weeks that follow: the stunning heritage building, Christ’s College Memorial Dining Hall (4 August); and Ao Tawhiti, Christchurch’s only vertical school (7 September).
