Free home energy assessments for all Wellington City Ratepayers

Sustainability Trust

Are your energy bills so high they've got you feeling down? Maybe you're wondering where that draught is coming from or why it's so hard to regulate the temperature inside your home?

Or maybe your home feels (dare we say it) MOIST?

The truth is that there are lots of things that contribute to how healthy a home feels, and how well it functions.

That is why Wellington City Council, in partnership with us (Sustainability Trust), offer free personalised home energy plans specific to your home.

The end goal is to arm you with all the info you need to create the healthy home you deserve. We can even check to see if your home is solar or EV ready.

We also offer a behaviour-based home energy assessment for tenants. This assessment helps tenants maintain a healthy home with low energy bills.

What are you waiting for? Book in for a free assessment today. Learn more

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
