Underfloor insulation

John from Karori

Hi Neighbours
Does any one have any spare or offcut underfloor insulation material to sell or give away? We are renting out our own house but have been told by the property manager that the storage of laundry room on level one need add insulation to be compliance with the new tendency law....i dont think it is actually a subfloor at all as it is the floor between level one and two. Its only around 2 square metre and hardly any professional installer will be interested in the job so we plan to do it ourselves but have difficulty in getting the insulation material. We prefer polyester blanket (mammoth or greenstuff) to match the rest of the house. Any help or advise?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Friendly Couple Seeking Shared Accommodation with Local Flatmates

Shenbo from Wilton

Kia Ora,
I’m a Chinese student set to attend Victoria University from February 2026 to July 2027, and I’m currently seeking shared accommodation for my husband and me around Pipitea campus.
My husband is an introverted IT engineer based in China, who will join me in Wellington starting March 2026. We’re both quiet, responsible, easygoing people with very regular daily routines, and we absolutely adore animals and children.
We’re keen to share a home with local flatmates – this way, we can learn from each other, immerse ourselves in New Zealand’s culture, and build genuine connections. I’d also love the chance to get to know you and your kids, and hopefully become good friends!
Thank you for considering us or sharing me with some kind messages.
(Email: shenbochen1122@outlook.com)
warm wishes for everyday.
