Do you need a builder?
My wife and I are just coming to the end of a comprehensive house renovation. Removing all ceiling and wall gib, insulating throughout regibbing, new electrics and plumbing, bifold doord onto a new deck, new wardrobes,......we have been living with a neighbour for almost 4 months (she deserves a medal) but it has been so woth it.
I have nothing but praise for Chris and Georgia Darby of Blueprint Projects and Construction. Chris has proved to be a hard working, talented, honest and thorough builder and project manager, Georgia has reported back on progress against budget on a regular basis as well as making many useful suggestions regarding design options - a very talented couple. I recommend their company without hesitation and reservation and would be very willing to discuss our experience more should the need arise.
Out of towners

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
