Handy Man
Hi there, my name is Karl and I'm as handy as I am honest, decent and respectful.
I have just returned from the UK and I'm currently awaiting a placement on a permaculture farm in Wanganui.
In the meantime I need to get by so I thought I'd post an advertisement on neighbourly.
I'm an experienced Tiler + I have worked several types of construction and landscaping jobs, I'm competent and efficient in painting & decorating, gardening, home maintenance and all things 'hands-on'.
I will be available for the next couple of months until I pursue my next phase of training and occupation on a more earth friendly and sustainable path.
Obviously I could just get a temporary job but I feel that there's more meaning and purpose in being useful in my community using the skills I have to help other people - it also means that I don't have to contribute to any parts of industries that I feel aren't in line with a sustainable future for us all.
Get in touch if there's a job you just don't want to do, I'll take on most types of home maintenance and general renovation jobs - even if you just some help with something, I'd love to get involved.
Take care, speak soon, Karl

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
