Electrical, Plumbing, Gasfitting and Roofing

Electrical, plumbing and gasfitting are restricted trades in New Zealand and must be done by a licensed electrician, plumber or gasfitter. Roofing is specialist work too. We don’t do any of these ourselves. On a renovation or bigger project we book and manage the right trade as part of the job. For a standalone electrical, plumbing or roofing job, we point you to someone who can.
