Leak detection in Maniaiti/Benneydale

Waitomo District Council contractor McIndoe Group are planning to carry out water leak detection in Maniaiti/Benneydale starting this Friday, 19 September 2025.

Leak detection helps identify where there could be faults in the network and can also help determine where water loss is occurring.

The leak detection investigation will occur from 8am to 5pm and although there will be a temporary interruption to water supply, it should not overly disrupt or interfere with normal usage.

We also ask that you please conserve water as much as possible.

With Tropical Cyclone Gabrielle developing and possibly hitting us this weekend/early next week, our Water Services team is proactively checking the critical sites in our district as a precaution.

We are asking residents to report any blocked cesspits, culverts and stormwater channels around or near their property.

Information including location would be appreciated, including photos if possible.

Please pass on this information by email: [email protected] or phone 0800 932 4357.

Please do not send details via Facebook or Facebook Messenger, as we will not be actively monitoring 24/7.
