Blocked drains are inconvenient and unpleasant to deal with, but here are some things you can do to make them less likely to happen:
1. Scrape food scraps off plates into the bin (not down the sink)
2. Put fat, oil and grease into the bin too
3. Use drain strainers to catch food residue in the kitchen and hair/fibres/soap scum in the bathroom & laundry
4. Run just hot water in sinks and showers at least once a week to prevent a build-up of dirt and residues
5. Only flush The Three P's (pee, poo and paper) down your toilet

If your drain gets blocked, avoid using harsh chemicals as these can damage your plumbing system over time. Contact your local Master Plumber for a professional service: www.masterplumbers.org.nz...

Anyone know where I can get some swan plants please?

Patricia from Kelburn

I know this has been a mantra this summer but, even with only putting our 12 (very large) swan plants out late in the Monarch season, and wiping quite a few eggs off leaves, we still have lots of hungry caterpillars and only a few leaves left. Does anyone know of anywhere still supplying swan … View moreI know this has been a mantra this summer but, even with only putting our 12 (very large) swan plants out late in the Monarch season, and wiping quite a few eggs off leaves, we still have lots of hungry caterpillars and only a few leaves left.

A moment of silence

The Team from Wellington Water

Today, our Wellington Water whānau gathered at our Petone offices to reflect on the recent events in Christchurch. This illustration by Kiwi artist Erin-Monique O’Brien is a lovely way of showing how we can reach across the water and offer our aroha to all those affected.
