Spotted! The first tsunami Blue Lines in Lower Hutt have started to be painted. Blue Lines are road markings that show the likely maximum reach of a large tsunami.

The first tsunami Blue Lines in Lower Hutt have started to be painted. Blue Lines are road markings that show the likely maximum reach of a large tsunami. They also show where you need to get past in such an event. Remember if an earthquake is long or strong - get gone! Don't wait for an official tsunami warning.
Hutt City Council, Wellington Regional Emergency Management Office (WREMO), and GNS Science have worked together in Lower Hutt to identify where the Blue Lines should go. It's going to take a while for all the Blue Lines to be painted as we'll need a run of good weather but in the meantime you can check out where they're going on our website
www.huttcity.govt.nz.... In the next few weeks every household in Lower Hutt will also receive a pamphlet with more information about Blue Lines.

Create curb appeal!
The greatest house in the world is still going to be hard to sell if you can’t get people in the door. As the saying goes first impressions last; creating curb appeal, or a desirable entryway is one of the best ways to add value or help sell your home. A prospective buyers first memory of the house is often the one that sticks and a little can go a long way in this area of the property. The first thing to do is make sure any garden or lawn areas are looking great; make sure they’re tidy, adding plants to the front of the home can really liven it up. Painting the entrance way is one of the best ways to blow the cobwebs off the front of the house. Painting the entrance door a bold colour can really make your house stand out, just be careful not to go for something too ‘interesting’.
So Neighbours if you are looking to sell we hope these tips help you!

The Lions might be the talk of the town, but a band of Irish rugby players is making a big impression at clubs around Wellington.
While the Ulster junior sevens team's tour might have been somewhat overshadowed by the British and Irish Lions, the parallel tours are no coincidence.

But what the Colin Williams story failed to say was that this upsurge was inflated to some extent on the back of the effects of the earthquake on Lower Hutt and its Westfield Mall . The Westfield Mall was more than "cut "in half and its movies complex decimated. This also had a marked affect on shoppers steering clear of the mall which totally dominates retailing in the Hutt Valley and beyond.
There was a time late last year when on occasions Upper Hutt's Main Street CBD was car-filled and almost seething with pedestrians.
So don't expect this to linger to the extent it reached pre-Xmas 2016 but some momentum could be maintained if the UHCC got serious in re-inventing the CBD

Here is our top tip number 4!
Update the Bathroom! As with the kitchen, the aim here is a modern appearance. A bathroom that looks old will instantly date the entire property in the minds of prospective buyers. Updating your bathroom needn’t be expensive or difficult; simply replacing the fixtures like cabinet fronts and faucets, as well as the lighting, can quickly modernise the entire room. Replacing stained grout will undoubtedly modernise the room. For those with the know how, a DIY refit of the bathroom can be very cost effective.
