Highlights

"I can’t praise Anthony and Liam from Ministry of Plumbing enough for the excellent repair work they did at our home. Within minutes of contacting MOP, Anthony got back to me to arrange a convenient time for the job. Anthony was fantastic — he quickly identified the best and most cost-effective way to fix both our bathroom shower mixer and kitchen sink issue. After working with MOP, I can’t believe I put off the repair for so long — their pricing was extremely reasonable. I highly"

I used MoP for a bathroom renovation and right from the quote process the standard of their work was great. They provided lots of information, spent time finding solutions for tricky water pressure situations in an old building, used the knowledge of the team, communicated really well and provided support through their supplier for help accessing the fittings etc. The end result was fantastic. Would totally recommend and use again.

Recently had a kitchen reno (Wilson Kitchens) who brought in Ministry of Plumbing to do the plumbing. Keiren did the initial work arriving on time and communicating if there was a holdup. V. Satisfied with how he carried out the work. There was some additional work needing to be done carried out, this time by Dan. Again v. satisfactory. While he was here, Dan discovered a small gas leak in outside piping and quickly got on to resolving the issue together with his apprentice Liam. Overall,

We had recently installed Solar and wanted to switch off the gas hot water to have electric hot water. We discussed the options with Anthony after an on-site visit. It was decided to install a hot water heat pump just outside the laundry, where it wouldn't be intrusive. We were happy with the quote and gave the go-ahead. The installation from Wow to Go was just over 2 weeks, with some weather interruptions. Anthony, Tom, and Dan were all friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. They also help

Dan was friendly and knowledgeable and was happy to answer any questions I had about the work he was doing and did an excellent job of servicing our Rinnai gas fire. We are very happy as it's working more efficiently now and this means savings on gas. Ministry of Plumbing was the most reasonably priced out of the quotes we received. Anthony is friendly and helpful and we have no hesitation in recommending Ministry of Plumbling.

These guys are fantastic, super reliable, considerate taking their boots off, offer practical solutions, good advice to make a decision, and good communication. Have used Ministry of Plumbing for 5 years and they have gone above and beyond a few times! I like that they dont do work / charge for things that dont need doing too (eg gutter clean out). Nice team, too. Really good people.

Absolutely top class! Anthony was polite, knowledgeable, quick to respond, and he was right on the money from the start with a VERY complex issue. His guys were great as well. The work was high quality, and they were super tidy. On top of that, the price ended up being thousands of dollars less than a competitor who also quoted. I can't recommend ministry of Plumbing highly enough!

Ministry of Plumbing replaced my low pressure hot water cylinder with a mains pressure one. Dan provided a few options and the team completed the work to an excellent standard. Am very impressed by the whole team, great communication and standard of work.

Anthony helped us with a small but essential plumbing job. He was able to get to the house quickly, communicated clearly with me, provided great photos and advice. It makes a huge difference when it’s ‘easy’ to do things, so thank you! What could have been a very stressful experience wasn not, and pricing was very fair and reasonable. No hesitation to use them again or recommend to others.

I have been trying to upgrade a very small apartment for my daughter and at the last minute I had to call you in and then had to change the job at even shorter notice. Thank you for the quick response, good communication and great workmanship. We are very happy with the job.

Ministry of Plumbing installed a bidet toiler seat for us. Tom cane and did a recycling for us to see if the bidet could be installed. He was very positive about it, we accepted the quote and the bidet was duly installed. First rate service!

Our first time using Ministry of Plumbing - they were great. Responded quickly to our call and showed up on time. Provided no-fuss fix, and simple explanation of what was required - along with some additional info for keeping things working well. Great job.

Ministry of Plumbing are excellent. Kieran replaced two fixed shower heads for me with Glide rainboost handshower heads with a flexible hose and the job was done very quickly and efficiently. Kieran is friendly and an excellent plumber. He also had some great ideas for a remodelling of my bathroom in the future.

I have worked with Ministry of Plumbing as our preferred plumber for the past 2+ years for rental properties I help manage on behalf of clients. Min of Plumbing are simply brilliant and so easy to deal with. No job is too big or small and they always respond promptly. Their communication is excellent - they follow up and explain what work has to be done, they give supporting photographs. They are very efficient and quite simply I will only work with them on all plumbing and gas issues.

Dan did a fantastic job. He explained to me what he was going to do and then did a thoroughly professional job. He did the job fairly quickly and I thought the cost was reasonable. I expected water to go everywhere, but it didn't. Dan had a hand towel ready to mop the small amount of water spilt.

In New Zealand, most plumbing and drainlaying work, and all gasfitting, is restricted to licensed tradespeople. Check the person doing the work holds a current licence on the Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Board public register before you hire.

Check the PGDB register
Agree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top — in writing — before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced — get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade — not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
