About Us – Tapped In Plumbing Services

Tapped In Plumbing Services began with a simple promise: to deliver plumbing solutions that last longer than the problems they solve. For over 25 years, we’ve proudly served the communities of Muriwai and West Auckland, specialising in residential and light-commercial plumbing with a focus on quality, care, and clear communication.

Our Story

We’ve grown alongside the community — through the good times and the tough ones. From wild weather and slips to infrastructure changes and rebuilds, we’ve been there, helping locals keep their homes safe, dry, and functional. Our roots in Muriwai run deep, and we’re proud to have built long-standing relationships with homeowners, businesses, and builders across the region.

Our Approach

  • Preventative care: Fixing problems before they become emergencies.

  • Eco-friendly materials: Sustainable solutions that respect the environment.

  • Honest communication: Clear quotes, no surprises, and friendly service.

We don’t just fix what’s broken — we help prevent future issues and deliver solutions that stand the test of time. Whether it’s a burst pipe, a blocked drain, or a full bathroom renovation, we bring experience, integrity, and a personal touch to every job.

More Than Plumbing

It’s not just about plumbing — it’s about people. And after 25 years, we’re still here, doing things right, one job at a time.
