As part of the Waikanae Beach stormwater upgrade, essential maintenance works requires us to temporarily turn off water supply to approximately 500 properties next TUESDAY, 15 NOVEMBER 2022 between 9am and 3pm.

Affected properties are from Waikanae Beach to Peka Peka from the intersection of Te Moana Rd and Huiawa St, Heperi St and all the way to the end of Paetawa Road and Peka Peka Beach.

The water supply may be shut down and restored at any stage between 9am and 3pm. Our crew is aiming to have some water to most properties back within 2 hours.

Following the shutdown, you may notice a milky appearance caused by air in the water, this will clear rapidly. If you have any recurring problems, please call us on 0800 486 486.

Right to Repair petition

James from Waikanae

Consumer NZ has organized a petition for the Right To Repair.
You know how annoying it is when you have to throw something away because it is impossible to repair it. It forces you to buy another item to replace it and the old one goes to the tip.
This can't go on.
