About

The principle behind Lifestyle Plumbing and Drainage is to supply good quality workmanship using modern technologies and products, while also being aware of the environmental impact the processes cause and minimising as much as possible.

Paul, Director of Lifestyle Plumbing and Drainage, was born and raised rural Gisborne and began his plumbing apprenticeship in 1990. 6 months after he started his apprenticeship the company he was working for closed its doors. He then found a company in Mt Maunganui with whom he was able to further his training. 

In 1993 Paul made the move to Lower Hutt where he completed his training. In 1996, he met his now wife, and followed her to Germany where he got married and had 2 children. Upon his return to NZ in 2005 with the new family the decision was made to settle in Hawkes Bay. 

"I was privileged enough to find employment with Panton Plumbing, where I was involved with the construction of the Taradale Summerset. As I had been away from the NZ building industry for so long, I combined the learning the new regulations with the completing of my advance trade qualification, achieving certifying Plumber status at the end 2006, followed by certifying Drainlayer in 2007." - Paul, Director

Paul left Panton Plumbing in August 2009 to start Lifestyle Plumbing & Drainage in August 2009 to focus more on the environmental impact of plumbing & drainage processes and hasn't looked back.

Testimonials

I had a blocked drain. I did some prep work digging the hole and getting things ready for Paul and his magic gear. Paul had the drain clear serviced and the hole filled within an hour. This has been the second time I have used Paul services and will do so again. many thanks.

John Jackson 

Paul promplty responded to our enquiry, proposed a solution, purchased the fittings needed on our behalf and promptly came round again and solved the bathroom shower problem that we had been putting up with for two years! I wish I'd called him earlier. He communicated costs well in advance and there were no surprises. He has also recommended an elevtrician to help with improving our bathroom ventilation. Highly recommended.

We highly recommend Paul from Lifestyle Plumbing - thank-you for the fantastic service!!!

Jason, Kerin Savage 

Paul fitted our new hot water cylinder and took out 3 old ones in one day. He worked so hard to make sure that we had hot water that he was here all day until 9.30 pm. He is pleasant and a really nice guy to have around. Couldn't be happier. THANK YOU PAUL

Andy Dowley 

Paul has done all the plumbing associated with a new kitchen plus replaced roof flashings & cleaned out 2 water tanks. He's provided a amazing service fitting in with other trades often at short notice. He's worked all hours of the day including weekends to make sure his work has been completed on time. He is a thoroughly pleasant guy to have around the home. Thank you Paul for a terrific service.

We have used Paul to do our plumbing work both for business and private. We have found him very knowledgeable and workmanship excellent. Highly recommend to others.

Sue Moot 

We asked several Hawkes Bay plumbers to install a Marshall boiler to heat all the hot water and drive 14 new radiators to be put into our family farm homestead built in the 1920’s. The sheer complexity and/or the extreme difficulty, not to mention unpleasantness, of the job put most off even quoting. A couple of firms we decided not to engage as their quotes were ridiculously high.

Then we found Paul. With the job now virtually complete I cannot recommend Paul highly enough. He never gilded the lily, suggesting parts of the job would be anything other than they were...hard and nasty work. There’s nothing nice about spending hours crawling, scrabbling and tunnelling beneath a suspended solid concrete floor with just six or eight inches of space above you to install copper pipelines. It must have felt like crawling through a sewer at times for Paul. But he was unfailingly cheerful and never cut corners, recognising we wanted the job to look good, not just work properly.

This was a big, complex, domestic plumbing project and we are relieved and thankful we engaged Paul to do it. He’s been exceptional. I’d be happy to reiterate this to anyone considering hiring him and can be contacted on 0272176443.
