Water Blasting or Softwashing?

Adam from Wellington Wash

"Softwashing" is the most effective method of washing a house. It is gentle on the surface and actually kills the organic growth such as mould, algae and lichen. This means your house will stay cleaner for longer!

Take this Stucco cladding for example, a fragile surface that should not be water blasted. After a "Softwash" you can see that all the algae, lichen and moss has been removed leaving only the oxidation marks from the Aluminium window joinery.
The surface was not damaged, no paint was removed and the customer was left very happy.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
