Rototuna’s houses are reaching the age where things go

Rototuna and Rototuna North were mostly built from the late 1990s through the 2010s, which puts a lot of the original hot water cylinders, tempering valves, mixers and gas units at 15 to 25 years old. That’s exactly when relief valves start dripping, elements fail and Rinnai Infinity units throw their first fault codes. It’s the work we do most, and the reason Rototuna is one of the suburbs we’re in most weeks.

What we’re usually doing out here

Hot water first: cylinder repairs and replacements, often with a mains-pressure or heat pump upgrade when the old cylinder is done, and Infinity servicing and replacement for the gas homes. Then kitchens: hob swaps, mixers, dishwasher connections, and the leaks under sinks that show up in houses this age. We quote in writing, usually the same day you ask, and we can often price a cylinder or Infinity job from a photo without a visit.

Local questions

How quickly can you get to Rototuna?

We're in Hillcrest, about 15 minutes down Wairere Drive. Non-urgent jobs are usually done within a week; for urgent hot water or gas problems, call and we'll tell you where you sit in the day.

Our cylinder is original to the house. Should we replace it?

Not until it needs it. Many Rototuna cylinders from the early 2000s are coming up on 20 years. If it's working and not leaking from the tank, keep it and fix the valves as they go. When it does fail, that's the moment to look at a mains-pressure upgrade or a heat pump.

Do you do gas in Rototuna?

Yes. Plenty of Rototuna homes run gas hot water and gas hobs. Our gas work is signed off by a certifying gasfitter, so Infinity faults, hob swaps and gas certificates are all covered.
