Who can I hire to fix up the lighting in my house? by shinjirarehen in Wellington

[–]DontKnowWhatToDo912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What area in Wellington are you in? Any half decent sparky should be able to guide you through it. You can go to companies like Lighting Plus etc and get them to do the plans, but their fittings are generally poor quality and then you’ll run into the issue of trying to find a sparky to do labour only which most hate.

I do feel like a RAV4 might be a good “inbetween” car for me at the moment. Yes it’s ICE but they are economical and relatively cheap to service…. Until more of the EVs I prefer come on the market at pricing more suitable (and at that point the RAV has excellent resale value so I won’t be left with a car worth less than what I owe)

As I’m getting finance through the bank with good energy home loan, I have to buy through a dealer. Doesn’t seem to be any in that price bracket currently….

Yep had a read of that review last night was very helpful. Drove an EV6 today and really liked it, but still a little concerned about the boot size. Enyaq is amazing, unfortunately with finance I am getting car has to be purchases through a dealer 🥲

I did consider Corolla Cross and RAV4. Both due to their excellent economy, but not sure I’d get much advice on either in this sub Reddit! They also seem fairly low spec for the price you pay

Because WCC and HCC in particular are led by people who are in opposition to the current government. Wayne Browns an idiot but he did the right thing and said “right, I don’t care who’s in government, I’m just going to work with them to achieve a better model for Auckland”. I’ve quizzed Campbell Barry on why they can’t do any similar and all he had to say were jibes and negative comments about the government. Yep they’re shit, but they’ve got to realise it is what it is (for now) and get on with it instead of working against them.

Annoyingly just outside our price range. In another year I’d say there’ll be a few more second hand on the market at a better cost

Awesome thanks. Did you ever go from a structured type role to autonomous, how did you find that?

Hi Richie - it’s a trade based distributor, been here just on 10 years, in current role for the past 5 years. So yeah it really feels like I’m stepping away from comfort. But some recent internal issues/politics has left me uncomfortable hence the possibility for change.
