You should expect services to be carried out with appropriate competency and skills, and completed to a reasonable standard.
For example, Jan had two painters provide quotes for some painting and wallpaper work. She chose her painter and the work was completed. Two weeks later she noticed bumps and lumps in the wallpaper, that she hadn’t noticed at the time the bill was paid.
With a faulty product, you can return it and ask for a repair, replacement or refund. But that’s not so easy with a service! But Jan’s story ended well, the painter came back and rectified the problem at no cost to Jan.

The ceremony was led by Mayor Tony Bonne, Deputy Mayor Judy Turner and Councillor Andrew Isles, and formally recognised a variety of volunteer groups who are active throughout the Whakatāne District.
In his opening remarks, the Mayor thanked all those present and all those involved in the volunteer groups, which he says play an essential role in the community and contribute hugely to the District.
"Today we have representatives from our libraries, a range of care groups, as well as the museum and gallery," the Mayor said, "and I want to thank you all for assisting our organisation to enhance and restore our natural environment, engage with the community and deliver the services it needs. Thank you for making our District a better place - I am humbled by the sheer amount of time that many of you contribute, not only for the Council, but also for a range of other local organisations."
