PLUMBING PRICES SHOULDN’T BE A MYSTERY!

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been showing you our new Instant Estimate Tool — something we built to make it easier to understand what common plumbing jobs are likely to cost.

Because we think customers should have more information before they book a plumber.

Choose the job you need done, answer a few simple questions and get an instant estimate based on the information you provide.

It won’t replace a plumber assessing a job when that’s needed — but for many common plumbing jobs, it gives you a much better idea of what to expect.

It’s one small way we’re making dealing with a plumbing company simpler, clearer and more transparent.

WHY CAN TWO SIMILAR PLUMBING JOBS COST DIFFERENT AMOUNTS?

A dripping tap might sound like a straightforward repair—but the final cost can depend on more than the symptom you can see.

A plumber may also need to consider:

🔧 What is actually causing the problem
🔧 Whether the existing parts can be repaired or need replacing
🔧 The type, age and condition of the fitting
🔧 How easy it is to access
🔧 Whether any additional damage is discovered

That’s why our Instant Estimate Tool asks you a series of questions and provides an estimated price range rather than pretending every plumbing job is exactly the same.

It gives you useful information upfront, helping you understand the likely cost before deciding what to do next.

🔧 ON THE TOOLS IN WIGRAM, CHRISTCHURCH

The MJR team was called to investigate gurgling sounds coming from the toilets at a Wigram property.

Our plumber tested all four toilets and checked the external inspection point and vent to assess the drainage system and look for signs of a developing blockage.

Gurgling toilets can be an early warning that air or water isn’t moving freely through the drainage system. Investigating unusual sounds early can help prevent a much more disruptive problem later.

Hearing gurgling sounds or noticing slow drainage at your property? Let’s get it checked.

5 plumbing small problems that homeowners leave until its too late

WHY IS MY SEWER PIPE BLOCKED?

Sometimes a blocked drain isn’t caused by what’s been put down it — the problem can be with the drainage itself.

We were called to this Christchurch property to investigate a blockage. After using CCTV and jetting the drain, we uncovered the pipework and found the cause of the problem.

In this video, Raff shows you what we found and explains why the drainage setup was causing trouble.

If you’ve got a plumbing job you’ve been putting off because you’re unsure what it might cost, try our Instant Estimate Tool. Answer a few simple questions and get an instant indication of the likely cost for common plumbing jobs — before you even need to call us.

FROM INSTANT ESTIMATE TO JOB DONE IN THREE DAYS 🔧

On Sunday afternoon, a Christchurch homeowner used our Instant Estimate Tool to enquire about a leaking fitting near their outside hose tap.

Here’s what happened next:

📩 Sunday 24 August — enquiry received
📞 Monday 25 August — email sent and followed up by phone
📅 Wednesday 27 August am — plumber arrived and replaced the leaking fitting on the irrigation system

We installed a new fitting on the outside tap to replace the black tape holding it in place. A small leak sorted before it had the chance to become a bigger problem.

That’s exactly why we created the Instant Estimate Tool: to make it easier to take that first step, understand what your plumbing job may involve and get it booked.
