Call Now — We'll Sort It 0800 322 322Manurewa has one of the largest stocks of 1960s-70s state housing in Auckland. Homes along Great South Road, Browns Road, Weymouth, Randwick Park, and Clendon were built with galvanised steel pipes that are now 50-60 years old — well past their lifespan.
These original galvanised pipes corrode from the inside, building up rust and scale that chokes water flow. You get brown water when taps first turn on, weak pressure in the shower, and eventually pinhole leaks that damage walls and floors.
We've re-piped dozens of homes like these across South Auckland. The solution is straightforward — replace the old galvanised with modern copper or PEX piping and the problems disappear overnight.
Brown or rusty water — corroded galvanised pipes in your Manurewa home are flaking rust into the water supply.
Low water pressure — decades of scale buildup inside old Manurewa pipes chokes the flow to a trickle.
Banging or rattling pipes — loose, corroded, or failing pipe joints common in older Manurewa state homes.
Visible leaks or damp patches — pinhole leaks in corroded pipes hidden behind walls or under floors in Manurewa properties.
Metallic taste in water — dissolved metals from old galvanised pipes affecting water quality in Manurewa homes.
Pipes over 50 years old — if your Manurewa home was built in the 1960s-70s and still has original pipes, replacement is overdue.
Pipe replacement costs in Manurewa depend on the size of your home, how many pipes need replacing, and whether you choose copper or PEX. Many Manurewa state homes are a similar layout, so we can often give a ballpark over the phone before quoting on-site in Manurewa.
Most full house re-pipes in Manurewa take one to two days. The standard 3-bedroom Manurewa state home layout is one we've done many times, so we work efficiently. Your Manurewa home will have water back on the same day.
Both work well for Manurewa homes. Copper lasts 50+ years and is the traditional choice. PEX is more flexible and often cheaper for a full Manurewa re-pipe — especially useful in homes where pipe runs through walls are hard to access. We'll recommend the best option for your Manurewa property.
Very common. Manurewa's large stock of 1960s-70s state housing along Great South Road, Browns Road, Weymouth, Randwick Park, and Clendon was built with galvanised steel pipes. Most Manurewa homes of that era still have original pipes that need replacing.
