PLUMBINGMAINTENANCE.CO.NZ

Passionate about plumbing and with over 35 years in the trade and 30 years of owning and managing my own business, I am committed to and believe in the future of the industry. My time on the Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainage Board and my involvement with over a dozen apprentices has enabled me to give back to an industry that has given me a good life... Raised in a family on a Waihi farm, I learnt valuable lessons that laid the foundation for a successful career in the plumbing industry. I was taught that with the attitude of "a fair day's work for a fair day's pay" you can't go wrong... A natural ability to use my hands and skills learnt on the farm, made a career in the trades seem like a good choice. In 1977 I started a plumbing and drainage apprenticeship, completing my time in Tauranga in 1980. After a 3 year OE, I returned to New Zealand and spent 26 years running my own successful plumbing, roofing, drainage and solar heating business.
