Job well done
Everyone, including women, should know how to replace the washer in their taps, to stop that annoying dripping leak.
All you need is a packet of washers, a screw driver and an adjustable wrench. It’s easy.
It also helps if you know where and how to turn the water off at your Toby and hot water cylinder.
Independence saves money and gives one a sense of pride.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
