Reliable Plumbing Services Across Franklin, South Auckland & North Waikato

Yes. In New Zealand, most plumbing work must be carried out by a licensed tradesperson under the Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Act 2006. Certain work can only be legally undertaken by tradespeople registered and authorised by the Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Board (PGDB). Limbo Plumbing operates as a certifying company, which is the highest level of registration available. Certifying status requires sitting the Certifying exam and upgrading beyond Licensed registration. That means every job completed by Limbo Plumbing can be signed off to the standard your local council and insurance provider may require.

Engaging a certifying tradesperson may protect you from costly compliance issues down the track. Work that must be carried out by a licensed and certifying practitioner in New Zealand includes installing, altering, or repairing any sanitary fixture connected to the water supply, and installing or replacing hot water cylinders. Everyone authorised to undertake restricted sanitary plumbing, gas fitting, or drain laying work must carry their NZ practising licence card and produce it when asked. You can request to see Limbo Plumbing's PGDB authorisation card before work begins, and you can verify any practitioner independently at pgdb.co.nz.

A plumber and a gasfitter hold separate licences for different types of trade work. The Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Act divides trade work into three main categories: sanitary plumbing, gasfitting, and drainlaying, each requiring its own separate licence or authorisation. In practical terms, a plumber focuses on water supply pipes, drainage systems, sanitary fixtures, and hot water services. A gasfitter is specifically qualified to work on gas installations, appliances, and gas pipework. Some practitioners are licensed in both. If your project involves both water and gas connections, such as a kitchen renovation or hot water cylinder upgrade, confirm with Limbo Plumbing which licences apply to your specific job.
