Common Reasons You May Need Drainlaying
Whether you're upgrading an old system or building from scratch, we can help with:
New drainage for residential and commercial builds
Drainage system upgrades for renovations and extensions

Drain connections for kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, and wet areas
Site-specific drainage designs for difficult terrain
We work closely with your builder or project manager to ensure every connection is completed accurately and on time.
What’s Involved in Professional Drainlaying?
Drainlaying is more than just digging trenches and laying pipe. Our certified team follows a clear process:
Planning & Design – We assess your site and project requirements to create a compliant, efficient drainage plan.
Excavation & Installation – We carry out trenching and lay sewer and stormwater pipes to NZ building code standards.
Inspection & Testing – Every system is pressure-tested and council-inspected before sign-off.
Backfilling & Site Restoration – Once approved, we carefully backfill and restore the site.
We handle everything from start to finish, so you don’t need to coordinate multiple contractors.
