SkyCity Fire
Our sympathy goes out to everyone affected by the fire at Sky City.
As a contracting company we are mindful of the huge stress an incident like this places on all parties.
If the fire is caused, as speculated, from a torch used to heat and seal waterproofing material on a roof, we think it’s time for architects and specifiers to reconsider the use of bitumen-based building products on roofs. There are other superior products available, for example TPO Membranes, which don’t require naked flame burners for installation, thus eliminating fire risk and toxic fumes.
Maybe this is the wake up call required. Still, very sad for all involved!
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
