FAQs

What causes pipes to leak?

The biggest cause of leaking pipes in New Zealand is clogged water lines. When a pipe is blocked, it causes the water to back up. This places increased pressure on the piping system, which, if left untreated, can lead to leaks.

Can kitchen sink plumbing be moved?

Moving any plumbing in your kitchen, including the sinks, is possible. One thing that must always be remembered when moving your sink plumbing is how the sink drain is vented. Your sink drain requires a vent to ensure the water moves freely.

Why are traps essential for plumbing a kitchen?

The ‘trap’ referred to in plumbing is the bendy u-shaped piece of pipe. This is required to trap liquid and gas to prevent unwanted flow. In most cases, this is essential to prevent sewer gases from moving into the home but still allows water and other waste to pass through.

What clogs a sink drain?

There are a few things that may clog your sink drain. The leading culprit in most cases in New Zealand is fat, oil, and grease. Other culprits include starches, coffee grounds, food scraps, soap scum, and other small items.
