Leaky roof?
When one of our repeat clients called to say that their roof was leaking, we didn’t have to look long to find its source. Their roof had a gas hot water flue pipe coming up through it, and some of the metal around the pipe had corroded away.
We talked through two options with our client:
- Short-term we could apply silicone to get through the winter months.
- Long-term we could install a new flashing from the ridge to the gutter.
We recommended option 2 because it is best practice, but offered option 1 in case the client needed time to plan for the work to be done.
Fortunately our client was able to go for the long term solution immediately. After taking careful measurements we had the new flashing made that day, and installed it the day after. Job done.
While finding the leak, we noticed a few other things happening on the roof. We showed our client and recommended that he plan to re-screw and repaint his roof in the next summer, so that it would last for at least another 10-15 years.

He gave me a good explanation so I could understand the problem, and he remedied the problem quickly and professionally. He always kept me up to date with pricing and when he would be working on the property.” – Barb
Complicated job done skillfully
“I was impressed and very pleased with the work done by 4CET Plumbing and Gas. I needed some work done on the roof quite quickly. Tamaiti was able to come round the next day. It was a small job but complicated. Tamaiti was very helpful providing options to solve the problem. He was very easy to communicate with, did the job within the timeframe I required and his work was skilled and very tidy. I will definitely be contacting him next time I need plumbing work done.” – Liz
