What our customers say
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get mains pressure in my old Wellington shower?
The most effective solution is removing your old low-pressure copper cylinder and converting the property to a high-performance mains-pressure system.
Can I install my own bathroom tapware?
No. Most bathroom plumbing, especially shower mixers and hot water systems, must be installed by a licensed practitioner to meet NZ standards and maintain your home insurance.
Do you manage Council consents for renovations?
For "like-for-like" replacements of fixtures, a consent is usually not required.
Can I buy my own toilet for a toilet replacement?
Yes. You can supply your own fixtures, and we will handle the professional installation. However, we recommend checking with us first to ensure the unit is compatible with your floor waste and water inlet.
How do I know if my shower leak is behind the wall?
If you see dampness on the other side of the wall, peeling paint near the skirting, or a musty smell, you likely have a shower leak in the internal pipework. Call us immediately to prevent structural rot.
