Why Choose Repiping for Your Auckland Property

Old or deteriorated pipes are more than an inconvenience. Old systems can waste water, reduce pressure, and risk contamination. In Auckland, many older homes still have galvanised steel or clay pipes that corrode or crack after years of use. Repiping replaces these outdated systems with new materials designed for long-term durability and water quality.

Our team uses advanced tools, like CCTV drain inspections and high-pressure water jetting, to quickly identify problems for repiping. Our goal is to make sure you’ve got the best system available. Our services like backflow prevention and other methods are to make sure you’ve got the best system in place. Whether it’s a persistent issue or part of routine maintenance, we act fast to restore proper flow and prevent future problems.

Flowpro offers 24/7 pipe repair and replacement services throughout Auckland. Established in 2008, we’re locally owned and backed by Master Plumbers and Certified Drainlayers. Our goal is simple: deliver a smooth, efficient, and fully compliant repiping service that restores confidence in your home’s plumbing for years to come.

Common Signs You May Need Repiping

Recognising the early warning signs helps prevent major plumbing damage and costly water bills. Here are the most common symptoms that indicate your property may need full or partial repiping.

Low Water Pressure or Uneven Flow

Inconsistent water pressure is one of the first signs of pipe corrosion or internal buildup. Over time, sediment and rust narrow the internal diameter of old metal pipes, restricting water flow. Replacing the entire network with new PVC or PEX piping restores even pressure throughout your home and protects connected appliances.

Leaking or Burst Pipes

If your tap water appears brown, yellow, or metallic-tasting, it’s likely rust from corroded galvanised pipes. Pipe repair in some cases can be enough but when it’s not the full system may need to be repiped. This can cause stains on fixtures, laundry, and plumbing appliances. Regardless of what it’s affecting (like your hot water cylinder, boiler, or other appliances) we’re here to help. Full repiping eliminates rust contamination and restores clean, safe water that meets NZ drinking water standards.

Frequent Leaks and Burst Pipes

Constant leaks or recurring bursts often indicate systemic failure. When patches no longer hold, replacing individual sections isn’t enough. Repiping provides a fresh start including new materials, new seals, and proper pressure ratings to stop problems at the source.

Ageing or Outdated Pipe Materials

Properties built before the 1970s often used galvanised steel, copper, or clay pipes that deteriorate over decades. Even homes with plastic piping may need repiping if the materials were early-generation PVC. Flowpro upgrades systems to modern, compliant materials that perform reliably under Auckland’s variable climate and soil conditions.

Our Repiping Services & What Affects Cost

Different buildings require different solutions. Flowpro offers a full range of repiping and pipe replacement options designed for residential, commercial, and multi-unit properties.

Whole-House Repiping

We replace old plumbing systems from the mains connection to every tap, fixture, and outlet. This is ideal for older homes or renovations where frequent leaks, rust, or pressure problems have become unmanageable.

Partial Repiping and Upgrades

If only certain areas like bathrooms, kitchens, or external lines are affected, we can replace those sections to restore flow and safety while staying within budget.

Trenchless Repiping (No-Dig Option)

For underground or hard-to-access pipes, we use trenchless relining methods that install a new resin lining inside the existing pipe. This minimises excavation, reduces disruption, and saves time on reinstatement.

Commercial and Industrial Repiping

We also service commercial sites, body corporates, and facilities requiring large-scale water or drainage upgrades. All work is carried out by licensed NZ drainlayers with full documentation and compliance reports.

What Affects the Cost of Repiping

Several factors determine the cost of a repiping project in Auckland:

  • Pipe material – PVC and PEX are typically more cost-effective than copper or polyethylene.
  • Accessibility – Pipes behind walls or beneath concrete floors take more time and labour to reach.
  • Property size and layout – Larger homes or multi-level properties naturally require more materials and time.
  • Existing damage – Corrosion, leaks, or poor previous installations can add to preparation and replacement work.
  • Urgency and after-hours work – Emergency repiping may require additional labour or expedited scheduling.

At Flowpro, we provide fixed-price quotes before starting any work. We include no hidden extras, no surprises, or additional fees. Every repiping project includes a full compliance report, product warranties, and workmanship guarantees.

Our Repiping Process

We follow a step-by-step process to ensure your new pipework is installed correctly, efficiently, and with minimal disruption.

01: Inspection & Assessment
Our team conducts a detailed CCTV inspection and pressure test to map out existing pipe conditions. We identify corrosion, leaks, and layout issues before preparing a replacement plan.
02: Quotation & Material Selection
You’ll receive a clear quote with options for PVC, PEX, or copper piping depending on your home and budget. We explain the pros and cons of each and help you choose the best system for your property.
03: Removal & Replacement
We safely remove or bypass old lines and install the new pipe network with precision. Every connection, joint, and fixture is tested for leaks and pressure compliance.
04: Testing & Cleanup + Final Report & Warranty
Once the repiping is complete, we test the full system to confirm consistent pressure and flow, then reinstate walls, floors, or landscaping as needed. You’ll receive documentation of all work completed, including before-and-after CCTV footage and compliance certification for your records.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you experience low water pressure, discoloured or rusty water, or frequent pipe leaks, your home may need repiping. Many older Auckland properties still use galvanised steel or copper pipes that deteriorate over time due to corrosion and mineral buildup. A CCTV inspection from Flowpro’s licensed drainlayers can confirm the condition of your plumbing and whether a full or partial repipe is the best option.

Repiping involves replacing old or damaged plumbing lines with new, durable materials like PVC, PEX, or copper. Our process begins with a full CCTV inspection and water pressure assessment. We then plan and install the new pipe network with minimal disruption, ensuring all fittings meet the New Zealand Building Code (NZBC). Once complete, we test the system, clean up the work area, and provide compliance documentation for your records.

Most standard Auckland homes can be repiped in one to three days, depending on the property size, accessibility, and pipe layout. Older or multi-storey homes may take slightly longer, especially if walls or floors need to be opened for access. Flowpro’s team works efficiently to limit disruption, and we can schedule work in stages to suit your household or business needs.

We use only approved materials that comply with NZ plumbing standards (typically PEX, PVC, or copper). PEX is flexible, affordable, and ideal for most Auckland homes; PVC is strong and corrosion-resistant for underground lines; and copper remains a popular choice for high-temperature or exposed areas. During your inspection, we’ll recommend the best material for your water pressure, layout, and budget.

Repiping costs vary depending on your property size, pipe access, and chosen materials. For a standard three-bedroom Auckland home, costs typically start from $4,000–$8,000 for a full repipe, with partial upgrades available for less. Flowpro provides fixed-price quotes before any work begins, so you know exactly what to expect. We have no hidden fees or surprises and our work includes warranties and full compliance certification.
