Facility Hours

Our offices in Queenstown and Wānaka will close at midday on Tuesday 24 December and reopen at 8.00am on Wednesday 3 January 2025. As always, we’ll still have a team of people available 24/7 to take your call and help resolve any urgent issues that crop up – just give us a call on 03 441 0499 (Queenstown) or 03 443 0024 (Wānaka). 

Another option for non-urgent issues is Snap, Send, Solve – a handy little app that allows you to report issues in your local area on the spot, using your mobile device. These issues are then automatically sent our way! Please note, these will not be monitored over the Christmas closedown but we’ll pick them up when we’re back.
