Richard Rea Plumbing Ltd

Small drips to full repipes, handled properly.

Service area

Serving Christchurch and surrounding areas.

Based near Christchurch. If you are nearby but unsure, just ask — we will tell you straight whether the trip makes sense.

Should I repair or replace my hot water system?

If it is over ten years old and needs frequent repairs, replacement usually costs less over time. Ask for both quotes.

Why is my drain gurgling?

Gurgling usually means a partial blockage or venting issue. It tends to get worse, so book a clear-out sooner than later.

Do you charge by the hour or by the job?

Practices vary. Ask whether the quote is fixed or hourly, and what the call-out fee covers, before work starts.

What counts as a plumbing emergency?

Burst pipes, major leaks, sewage backups, and no hot water in winter. Shut off the main valve first, then call.
