Renovations, whether big (adding a new room) or small (new light fittings) can be a great way to increase the value of your home. Often, significant value can be added to a property through relatively minor changes. However, carefully choosing what kind of renovations to undertake is crucial. Carrying out unnecessary work can sometimes incur huge expense while adding little to the sale value of your home.
Top Tip Number 1.
Insulate! Insulate! Insulate! The value this adds to your home cannot be overstated. Today, this is considered an absolute necessity by many homebuyers, in fact not having insulation can easily create the perception of an unhealthy home. With the EECA Energywise programme subsidising the cost of insulation, there really is no reason not to. For more information on the subsidy head to: www.energywise.govt.nz...

"I was suspicious of the establishment at the time. You need to understand, I had grown up a welfare-dependent "half-caste" (I hate that term) boy living with his mother, escaping from a life of alcohol, crime and a level of violence that I would not tolerate for my daughters. An under-achiever, I was expelled from two secondary schools. I feel I had a reason to be angry at "the system".
"Then I became a father. It changed my life. I needed to be a responsible adult caring for a son, then a daughter – eventually seven children. We were young parents and wanted to do only the best for these precious beings.
"I read the pamphlet. It described "studies" in the Netherlands into communities that didn't look like mine, but I took little persuasion. I stated our second child, our little daughter Te Miringa, would not be immunised.
"At the time my wife Tracy was working as a nurse at the local medical centre and immunising children daily. Yet this was my protest against the establishment that I so mistrusted.
"Fifteen months later, we had a scare. Te Miringa became unwell with high fever and a body rash and the doctors were concerned as there was a measles outbreak locally. And I realised the information from the Netherlands did not reflect my reality.
"We got Te Miringa immunised."

One year after it shut "temporarily" the Upper Hutt police stations remain closed at weekends. There is no date set for reopening and no work has begun on planned security upgrades. What do you think? How do you feel with the station out of action on weekends? Comments may be used for print unless stated otherwise with NFP (Not For Print).

This retailing duo has taken over a long-time ground floor empty corner building that harboured an ANZ bank.
The layout is exceptional and the roomy cafe also has outdoor seating and an "open window" where coffee can be purchased. A large cup of coffee cost $4 which is a dollar less than usual.
But this initiative effectively adds nothing additional to the retailing and eateries in the CBD as the barber shop had already operated elsewhere ui the CBD and another cafe has closed its doors further up the street.
Every year, over 11,000 brave men and women keep us safe. Most of them are working full-time jobs. Many are parents or grandparents. All of them are doing their bit to put out fires, save lives and keep the station working.
