Services

Everyday fixes and bigger jobs, handled with the same care.

If water flows through it, drains from it or heats it, we can usually help. Not sure where your problem fits? Describe it in the quote form.

Leaks & burst pipes

We find the source, stop the water and repair or replace the damaged section so it stays dry.

Blocked drains

We clear slow sinks, showers and toilets and point out what caused the blockage so it's less likely to return.

Hot water systems

We repair, service and replace water heaters, and help you pick a size that suits your household.

Taps, toilets & fixtures

We fix dripping taps and running cisterns, and install new fixtures you've already chosen.

Kitchen & bathroom pipework

We handle pipework during renovations and fit-outs, and work to your builder's schedule.

Inspections & upkeep

We check pipes, valves and water pressure before a move or a season change, and give you a clear written summary.

How a visit works

No surprises between your first message and the final walk-through.

You always know what we're doing, why, and what it will cost before any tools come out.

We explain the job before we start, and we show you the work before we leave.
  1. Tell us what's happening

    Send a short description through the quote form. Photos of the problem are welcome when we reply.

  2. Agree the scope & a time

    We confirm a visit time and give you a written scope and price. Nothing starts until you approve it.

  3. Repair, tidy & walk through

    We do the work, clean up, then walk you through what we changed and how to look after it.

Workmanship

We treat your home with care.

Good plumbing is mostly hidden, so we make the unseen work easy to trust.

  • Protected floors. We lay drop sheets and wear shoe covers before we walk through.
  • Photos of hidden work. You'll see what's behind the wall or under the floor before it's closed up.
  • Good parts only. We use proper fittings and explain any alternatives in writing.
  • Full clean-up. We take away old parts and packaging, and wipe down the work area.
Water where it shouldn't be?

Turn off the main valve, then tell us it's urgent.

Shutting off the water first limits the damage. Then pick "Urgent" in the form and we'll prioritise your request.

Questions

Good to know before we visit.

Will I get a price before any work starts?

Yes. Once we understand the job, you get a written scope and price. If we find something unexpected, we stop and talk to you before doing anything more.

Do you take urgent jobs?

Yes. Choose "Urgent" in the quote form and we'll prioritise it. For active leaks, shut off your main water valve while you wait.

Where is my main water shut-off valve?

It's usually near where the water supply enters the house, often by an outside wall, in a garage or under the kitchen sink. If you can't find it, say so in your request and we'll help you locate it.

What should I include in my request?

Say what you've noticed, where it is, how long it's been happening and whether you've tried anything. The more detail you give, the better prepared we'll be.
