Frequently asked questions

What happens during an outage or interruption?

For planned work, we will give you five working days’ written notice and plan our work to minimise any inconvenience to you.

For unplanned work, we aim to respond within two hours and restore service within five hours. 

If any interruption to the water supply, planned or unplanned, exceeds five hours, we'll make sure you have access to clean water by providing bottled water or setting up a water tanker or water hydrant close to your property.
