Bread factory keeps neighbours awake at night

Reporter Community News

Noise from a food manufacturer’s plant has its neighbours at their wits’ end, with one going as far as to move out of her home.
Helen Chapman​ said the low pitched throbbing of machinery from the nearby Farrah’s flatbread factory cuts through the windows and walls of her Upper Hutt home at all hours.
“My dream home has become a nightmare.”
Farrah’s director Jovan Čanak​ said the company accepted there was an issue and was committed to fixing it.
“We have spent large amounts of money working towards identifying the issue and engaging with a raft of experts with efforts towards fixing this."

Advice please, declined house insurance cover

Jane from Pinehaven

Looking for advice please. Has anyone had any issues reinsuring their homes. Our current house insurance went up by 11.5%, so I decided to get another quote. At the end of a very long phone with Tower, they declined to insurance us, saying our property is a landslide risk. I'm on Wyndham Road in Pinehaven. While the house is up off the street, the house itself and backyard are on the flat part of our section. Now - in the interest of full disclosure - I'm going to have to tell our current insurer too. I've rung the Council to see if they've updated their hazards mapping - and they said the only update has been to the Pinehaven Overflow. Have lived in this house since 2003, and insurance has never been an issue till now. TIA
