Common Plumbing Problems in Takapuna
Hot Water Cylinders
Salt air shortens the life of outdoor cylinders and gas water heaters, especially their fittings and casings. Near the coast we recommend units and valve materials suited to the conditions and position them for shelter where possible. Hot Water Cylinders across Auckland.
Gas Fitter
Salt air corrodes gas regulators, fittings and bottle connections faster near the sea. Near the coast we use suitable materials and check for corrosion on existing gear as part of any job. Gas Fitting across Auckland.
Blocked Drains
Sand washed in from decks, outdoor showers and paths settles in coastal drains and slowly chokes them. A high water table can also make the gully trap look blocked when it is not, so we confirm the cause before clearing anything. Blocked Drains across Auckland.
Hot Water Repairs
Coastal air corrodes external gas water heaters and outdoor valves faster than inland. We replace corroded parts and check flues, casings and connections for salt damage while we are there. Hot Water Cylinder Repairs across Auckland.
