Earthquake Impacts You Can’t See
From the outside, this rental property appeared well maintained, with no visible signs of concern.
A drain camera inspection, however, identified underlying damage linked to past earthquake movement. Ageing ceramic pipes had shifted and cracked over time, creating a potential issue that had not yet surfaced.
An existing EQC (now Natural Hazards Commission) claim was still in place. We supported the owner throughout the process, gained approval, and completed the repairs without incurring additional costs.
The drainage system has now been restored and the property made secure.
Not all earthquake-related damage is immediately visible. Regular drain inspections can help identify hidden issues early.
Enviroflo provides complimentary drain checks for those seeking peace of mind.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
31.5% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
67.6% No, I enjoy it
-
0.9% Other - I'll share below
