Revolution Plumbing and Gas is a Christchurch plumbing and gas company led by Simon, the owner and manager, who is a Certifying Craftsman Plumber and Gasfitter. He and his team bring a wealth of experience across all aspects of plumbing and gas work, and a certifying drainlayer is also part of the team, meaning drainage jobs can be handled in-house alongside plumbing and gasfitting.
The company covers the full range of residential work: transforming outdated bathrooms, switching homes from a hot water cylinder to gas, installing beautifully crafted gas fires, replacing leaking taps, and plumbing brand new homes. Gas hot water installs are one of their most popular requests, with customers often saying their only regret is not making the switch to gas sooner.
What sets Revolution apart is its personal, small-job-friendly approach. When you call, you speak with Simon himself, and the team prides itself on giving time and expertise no matter how big or small the job. They understand you are trusting them with your home or business and your time, and they work to find the right balance of competitive pricing and quality workmanship.
Free quotes are always on offer, and the team serves customers right across Christchurch and the surrounding region, from the central city to coastal and hill suburbs and out to Banks Peninsula towns.
Every trades business promises quality work, but few can match the personal touch of Revolution Plumbing and Gas. When you ring this Christchurch company, the person who answers is Simon — the owner and manager — a Certifying Craftsman Plumber and Gasfitter who takes your call, understands your job, and brings his team's experience to bear on it. For homeowners across Christchurch, that direct line to the person in charge is exactly the kind of service they have been looking for.
If there is one job that has become the signature of Revolution Plumbing and Gas, it is the gas hot water conversion. So many of their customers say the same thing after making the change: their only regret is not switching to gas sooner. The advantages are easy to understand — better water pressure, endless hot showers, power savings, valuable space gained back in the home once the cylinder is gone, and new options for gas cooking and heating as well.
The company's conversion package is designed to make the switch simple. It covers the disconnection and removal of your existing hot water cylinder, the supply and installation of a new Bosch, Rinnai or Rheem gas instantaneous water heater, a gas bottle station with auto changeover regulator and rain cover, and connection to your home's existing hot and cold pipework. A gas compliance certificate is provided for your records, and all work is undertaken by certifying craftsman plumbers and gas fitters. A site visit first confirms a suitable location for the bottles and the gas unit.
Gas hot water is just one string to this bow. The team handles everything from transforming an outdated bathroom to installing a beautifully crafted gas fire, replacing a leaking tap, or plumbing an entire brand new home. Crucially, a certifying drainlayer is also part of the team, so drainage work can be managed alongside plumbing and gasfitting rather than being sent elsewhere.
That breadth matters when you are renovating or building. One trusted crew can coordinate the hot water, the bathroom, the gas fire and the drains, instead of you juggling multiple contractors. And because Simon and his team pride themselves on giving their time and expertise no matter how big or small the job, a single leaking tap gets the same care as a full new-build fit-out.
Simon and his team understand something that bigger firms sometimes forget: when a tradesperson walks through your door, you are trusting them with your home or business — and with your time, both of which are precious. That mindset shapes how Revolution Plumbing and Gas works. They aim to be punctual, communicative and respectful, and they strive to find the essential balance between competitive pricing and quality workmanship rather than sacrificing one for the other.
Free quotes are part of the deal too. The team is always happy to come out, look at the job and put together a quote with no obligation, whether it is a straightforward repair or a full conversion.
Revolution Plumbing and Gas works right across the Christchurch region — from the central city and inner suburbs to Riccarton, Cashmere, Sumner, New Brighton, Belfast and out to Banks Peninsula and beyond. Wherever you are in the area, the same small-team, owner-led service applies.
If your old hot water cylinder is on its last legs, your bathroom has seen better days, or you have been dreaming of a gas fire for winter, it may well be time to join the Christchurch plumbing and gas revolution.
