The less water we use, the faster we can upgrade our wells. It all adds up, and we really appreciate people’s efforts.
The biggest demand for household water comes from garden sprinklers and irrigators. A better option is to use a hose with a spray gun, or a watering can. Better still, water only on alternate days between 9pm and 7am, when it's cooler.

But what is set to open in 2019? Which fences are coming down? Where will Christchurch folk be shopping and hanging out in the next 12 months?
We take a look at both public and private projects that are set to open in the eighth year since the earthquakes, further expanding Christchurch's offerings. Expect new retail and hospitality areas, food courts and co-working spaces, supermarkets and crucial road links.

Many people setting up paddling pools for their children this summer will be breaking the law - are you one of them?
Any pool, fixed or portable, deeper than 400mm is now subject to safety provisions under the Building Act, meaning there a quite a few rules you probably aren't even aware of.
For example, do you have a 1.2-metre fixed childproof fence with a self-closing gate opening outwards?
What are your thoughts on paddling pool safety? If faced with an inspection, would your pool set-up pass? Do you think all these rules are essential? What are your tips for setting up a paddling pool safely?
