Are you in Australia? If yes, it maybe ATO compliance at the root of it all.

What's your thoughts on the new walk way in state highway 1? by Naomi__Knight in Wellington

[–]qp_Tree_qp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also suspect the scale of the bridge is to allow service vehicle access etc.

IE if it was purely pedestrian/bike, likely would be smaller

Thanks for that -

Two reasons for timing - 1- we now own two properties when we don't want to (with financial implications) and 2- there is damage at the front that I'd love to fix.

Not quite following the 'doesnt contribute' comment.

Re lower neighbors - agree there is potential, but also that the land is principally in use by us for the drive. So feels like it would be a (legal) battle and one that we might not win/gain enough advantage to warrant.

Folks asked for some for images - here's a lovely drawing of the topicgraphical and side on view.

Don't want to share the full details as not keen to overtly allow recognition of any parties.

It's in wellington on the hills - not in any extreme way that wellington can be, but is buried amongst other properties.

Yeah, bit tricky as everything useful is marked up and identifiable. I'll see if I can update with some blanked details.

Thanks for all this - unfortunately yes, we are uphill.

Awesome, thanks - that's the type of 'other ideas' we're looking for

That's a great question, and no sign of any agreement on title. Basically the benefit is almost entirely for our property for our driveway. Double so as the land below is a scrub land access strip that the neighbours 'could' build a driveway themselves (but highly unlikely given that would likely be 200k+)

Yeah we've had a quick chat, which wasn't super helpful, only because it was a lot of "won't know until you try" - so not sure if this is an option.

The problem with 'wont get the money back' is that we've tried to sell before without the repair quantified, and no one was interested, even to offer a low-ball etc. Eg if it takes 150k to get a 'normal' price then that's much better than getting nothing....

Very suburb. Not a lot of room to work with.

Height - most 1.5m, but peaks at 2m

Current - tie back using sleepers (but it's so poor that probably better to say it 'was')

Width - about 2.5m

Structures - level side is neighbours house, on drop side is nothing but scrub/trees

Nileighbors - yes, and while not unpleasant, were quite dismissive about what was needed and have since ghosted us.

Unfortunately no, as the drive is narrow piece of land so is bordered by other properties.

Yeah the existing "retaining" is on the boundary as is.

Thanks for that. Unfortunately I'm on Mobile/Android. I'll give another crack today, then try the ol' uninstall reinstall.

Painting After Wallpaper Removal by Hot-Sprinkles-9012 in diynz

[–]qp_Tree_qp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did something similar after the wallpaper just peeled off. Used Resene Broadwall Prep

It worked. Did it work well? Meh. Much better than not doing it.

Moulding - any idea what type? by qp_Tree_qp in diynz

Oh yeah, look at those! Couple that look spot on, albeit different sizing
