What's involved

The Healthy Homes Standards came in to make NZ rentals warmer, drier, and healthier. The two areas where we help landlords most are draught-stopping (gaps around window and door joinery that bleed heat) and moisture control (ventilation upgrades, double-glazed inserts to reduce condensation).

For most older rentals, an afternoon of draught-stopping work plus a few seal upgrades is the difference between failing and passing inspection. We've done dozens of compliance jobs across Tauranga rentals.

Why W&D Rescue for Healthy Homes

We've done compliance work for property managers and individual landlords across the Bay. We know what inspectors actually check vs what marketing says they check. We'll get you over the line without overspending on things that don't matter for compliance.

Common questions

Two things: gaps and holes "unreasonably likely" to cause draughts must be blocked, and rentals need adequate ventilation in kitchens and bathrooms. Most older rentals fail on draughts around joinery.

For an average 3-bed Tauranga rental, expect $400–$900 for full draught-stopping and seal upgrades. We quote firm after a 30-minute assessment.

All private tenancies needed compliance from 1 July 2025. Boarding houses earlier. New tenancies after that date need full compliance from day one — keep proof of work for your records.

Yes — if you manage multiple rentals we'll price per-property at a discount and schedule visits on the same day where they're close.
