Can anyone recommend someone who can fix a leaky roof?

Kim from South Waikato District

Hi everyone
After the last big rain we had last week part of my roof fell onto my bed.
It is rotted and the bats are rotted. Have included pics.
Can anyone recommend a competitively priced tradie to fix leaky roof? It looks like one small section of the roof.
Cheers
Kim

Has anyone who reads the South Waikato News noticed that local letters are not published anymore.
In the discussion section they have syndicated twaddle,of no interest to most readers.
At a time when we are unfortunate enough to have a totally disfunctional local council we have no means of venting our frustration.
Outside administrators are the obvious answer,which means goodbye to democracy.
The SWDC should invest in The pudding and sweet making Industry,it would make the ratepayers a fortune.
BECAUSE EVERY THING IT TOUCHES TURNS TO CUSTARD.
