Rottenomics: The Story of New Zealand's Leaky Buildings Disaster

Author(s): Peter Dyer

NZ Non Fiction

For over 25 years our building industry, economy and Government have failed to provide this basic guarantee: new buildings will not rot.


Leaky buildings are the result of an unfortunate confluence of industrial, legislative, historical and cultural factors. Collectively, these elements stubbornly continue to defy a full and final resolution. Featuring personal stories of homeowners faced with insurmountable repair costs of hundreds of thousands to their 'dream home', often leading to sickness, depression and financial loss. And revealed for the first time, withheld Government reports that estimate the total cost of leaky dwellings at $47 billion.


Rottenomics is an engaging expose into a national crisis that refuses to go away.
