The jobs we get called for most

Most of our work is the unglamorous kind: the tap that has dripped for six months, the toilet that will not stop running, the pipe that let go under the house on a Sunday night and has been patched ever since. None of it is complicated for a plumber who does it every day, and all of it gets worse if it is left.

  • Leaking and dripping taps, mixers and shower fittings
  • Burst and leaking pipes, including the ones under the floor you cannot see
  • Toilets that run, block or leak at the base
  • Waste and gully repairs, laundry and kitchen plumbing
  • Bathroom renovations, from a new vanity to a full strip out and refit
  • New builds and alterations, working in with your builder
  • Landlord and property maintenance, one house or a portfolio

What it is actually like to deal with us

You ring, and someone in our own office answers. They know where the vans are and what the week looks like, so you get a straight answer about when someone can come, not a promise made by a call centre. If we cannot get to you quickly, we will say so.

On site, the plumber who turns up is one of five who work for us permanently, not a contractor we found this morning. We hold Craftsman Plumber registration in the firm, along with gasfitting and drainlaying, which matters on the jobs that cross over between the three.

Bathroom renovations

A bathroom is where plumbing gets expensive if it is done in the wrong order. We do the rough-in, work in with the tiler and the builder, and come back for the fit off. If you are still deciding on fittings, ask us first: some of the cheaper mixers are a guaranteed callback in three years, and we would rather tell you that now than charge you to fix it later.

Where we work

We are based on Cadbury Road in Onekawa and cover Napier, Taradale, Bay View, Ahuriri, Hastings, Havelock North, Clive and the wider Hawke's Bay. If you are not sure whether you are in range, ring and ask.

Sending your enquiry...

That did not send

Our anti-spam check could not run, so your enquiry has not reached us yet. It is usually a browser extension, a VPN or a work network blocking it.

Common questions

Do you charge a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out fee. The minimum charge is half an hour of labour, so a small job like a tap washer is charged as a small job.

Do you do emergency or after-hours plumbing?

Not as a general service. We work Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and after-hours work is limited to existing customers. If something is urgent, ring us on 06 843 5120 and we will tell you honestly whether we can get to it.

How quickly will I hear back?

Almost every enquiry gets an answer the same day. The phone and the email are answered in our own office, so you are talking to someone who knows the job list rather than an answering service.

Can you quote without visiting?

Often, yes. Send a couple of photos and a description and we can usually give you a price or a range. For bigger work, a renovation or a new build, we will come and look properly. Quotes are free either way.

How do I pay?

Eftpos or internet banking. SuperGold cardholders get 10% off labour.
