Armstrong Plumbing & Drainage

06/08/2026

Noticed your water bill creeping up, or a damp patch on the lawn that won't dry out? It could be a water main leak, and the tricky part is they're usually hiding underground or under concrete.

We use a water leak detector to listen for exactly where the leak is, so we're not guessing, and there's no unnecessary digging. Accurate diagnosis first, then we fix it properly.

Give us a call if something doesn't seem right. 07 575 8914.

Another local project wrapped up. We've just completed the plumbing and drainage for the seven new homes at 135 Grace Road, Tauranga.

Multi-unit developments take careful planning. Every home needs its own reliable supply, waste and drainage, all tying back into shared and council systems without a hitch. With two bathrooms and a designer kitchen in every home, that's a lot to get right across the site. Our team handled the full scope, from the underground drainage through to the fit-out in each unit.

We've been doing this kind of work across the Bay of Plenty since 1927, and we hold the same high standard whether it's the part you see or the part buried under the ground. That's how we keep our developer and property owner clients coming back.

Have a multi-unit or commercial project coming up? Flick us a message and let's chat. https://www.armstrongplumbing.co.nz/news-advice/grace-rd-multiunit-dwelling-plumbing-drainage

Ever wondered what goes into a facility built to service big rigs? 🚛
The new Truckstops site at Tauriko needed plumbing and drainage planned from the ground up — underground services, stormwater management, large concrete hardstand areas and a rainwater catchment system feeding the wash bay.
Our team delivered the lot, working in with the wider build crew to get every connection right.

That's what nearly 100 years in the trade looks like. Read more on our blog 👉https://www.armstrongplumbing.co.nz/news-advice/plumbing-amp-drainage-for-the-new-truckstops-facility-at-tauriko

Think of it like a warrant of fitness for your drains. A drain that's coped fine all summer can give up the moment a winter storm pushes it past its limit, usually because of a slow build-up of leaves, grease or tree roots you couldn't even see.

Sorting it early is far cheaper and far less stressful than dealing with a backed-up drain in the middle of a storm. Our team has the gear and the experience to check your drainage, clear what needs clearing, and let you know if anything needs watching.

That's where quality runs deeper for us. Open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm.
