Highlights

Have used Plumbed Up on two separate occasions and found them to be helpful and responsive. They turned up when they said they would, completed the work promptly and left the house clean and tidy. Certainly recommend the company and will use them again. Both Nick and Neil were easy to deal with.

MikeNoCowboys5.0 rating

Nick from Plumbed Up provided me with an extremely professional and prompt services. He was extremely communicative in his service delivery and I coordinated additional sub-contractor services to complete the works. I have not hesitation in recommending this company and Nicks services. Many thanks Nick!

AmandaNoCowboys5.0 rating

I have used Plumbed Up a few times now and can highly recommend their services. Nick is always very easy to deal with; he provides a prompt and quality service (quite rare for a plumber) and his rates are always fair.

they did the plumbing for the reno of our place and in less than 5 months a pressure valve they installed broke. they wouldn’t fix it and refuse to honour the warranty. gave us the runaround and nearly a year on we are still waiting.

The job was done to satisfaction. However the only development needed is time management. If plumber is running late for some hours, its also good to advice the client, so they don't need to chase around.

Chase, the plumber, was great - polite, did a good job, tidied up afterwards, offered useful advice. He also kept me posted re progress/timing, during the job. My initial phone call was not returned, so they would have lost the business if I hadn't prepaid for two hours on a GrabOne deal, because I wouldn't have called again. However, Chase made up for the initial not-so-great impression.

When they finally arrived 1.5 hours late - the guy was polite and worked quickly - did a great job installing a new supertub for us. Their customer service is shocking - the lady on the phone who books the jobs was rude and when I enquired as to what time they would get there got simply palmed off with "that's tradepeople for you" and didnt give me any indication on whether it was definitely going to be done that day.

Prompt service to come in and look at the problem. However, the service after that was average. Insisted on supplying own cistern if they are going to install it but had to wait like 3 weeks for a cistern when a local company had a replacement cistern in-stock and worked fine as well. Furthermore, the invoice was sent to my email the day before it was due when it was issued 6 days prior. Not sure what happened there.

Best plumbers I've dealt with in I don't know how long! Arrived on time, did it all quicker than expected, tided up, and gave an excellent description of what had caused the problem, what they had done to fix, and what I could do to ensure this doesn't happen again. Will be using this guys all the time and referring to family and friends from now on!!

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

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.
