WHERE THIS COVERS

Hawke’s Bay, town by town

Napier
Hastings
Havelock North
Te Awanga
Waipukurau
Say the town in your request. NovaPay asks businesses working near it first rather than the whole region, so the quotes you get back are from people who will actually come.
WHAT IT USUALLY COSTS

$80 to $150 an hour

Typical New Zealand rates. Most plumbers also charge a callout fee, and urgent after-hours work costs more. A quote through NovaPay shows the callout and the rate separately, so you can see what you are agreeing to.
That is a New Zealand-wide range. What you are quoted in Hawke’s Bay depends on the job and on how far somebody has to travel to it, which is why the quotes come back priced for your job rather than as a rate card.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Do Napier and Hastings businesses cover both?
Most do — it is a twenty-minute drive and the two run as one market. Central Hawke’s Bay is further and a small job there may carry a travel charge, which the quote states.
How fast can I get a plumber?
It depends on the job and your area. Urgent work such as a burst pipe usually gets a response fastest, because plumbers keep space in the day for it. Say in your request that it is urgent and that goes to them with everything else.
Is an emergency plumber more expensive?
Yes. After-hours, weekend and public holiday callouts usually carry a higher rate or a larger callout fee. Any quote you get through NovaPay states it before you accept.
Do I have to pay to get quotes?
No. NovaPay is free for customers. You pay the plumber for the work, through NovaPay, and only once you have accepted their price.
Can a plumber do gasfitting too?
Often, but not always. Gasfitting is separately certified in New Zealand. Mention gas in your request and NovaPay only asks tradespeople who do that work.
