Confession time – we have a soft spot for the garden here at Upkeep Plumbing. A beautiful, lush, green garden where you can potter about or just sit and enjoy can bring a great deal of peace and tranquillity to your life. However, if you are sitting in your garden and all you can see are the odd jobs you don’t have the time (or inclination) to fix, it can take away some of the garden pleasure.

A leaking downpipe up there, a broken garden tap over there and a broken water tank pump around there . . . Argghh!!

Let us take care of those outdoor plumbing jobs so all you have to do is sit and relax!

Front garden tap kicked in again?

Glenn has lost count of the number of front stands and taps he has replaced because someone kicked and damaged them overnight. If it has happened a couple of times, he normally suggests moving the tap somewhere closer to the house. It might cost a bit more up front, because the waterline may need to move, but if it keeps happening it could be cheaper in the long run. Read more in Plumbing damage and vandalism.

Saving the big jobs for a long weekend

Glenn’s list of the outdoor jobs he saves for a long weekend, from rusted guttering to roofing, is in Plumbing jobs for a long weekend. If you’re not a keen DIYer, give us a call.

Outdoor plumbing questions

Can you fix a leaking downpipe?

Yes. Leaking downpipes, broken garden taps and water tank pumps are the kind of outdoor jobs we take care of.

Can you plumb in an outdoor kitchen or BBQ area?

Yes, we can plumb in an outdoor kitchen or a BBQ area on your deck. Any gas work must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter.

Someone keeps damaging my front garden tap. What can I do?

Consider moving the tap closer to the house. It may cost a little more because the waterline might need to move, but it could save money if the damage keeps happening.
