Plumbers in Hawke’s Bay.
No Drips® is a Hawke’s Bay plumbing and drainage company. We’re based in Napier and work right across the region, from Napier and Hastings to Havelock North, Central Hawke’s Bay and the rural properties in between.
Leaking tap, blocked drain, new septic system or a commercial fit-out? One call sorts it.
Local, licensed and owner operated
No Drips® is owned and run by Ian McDonald, a local plumber with more than 15 years of plumbing experience in Hawke’s Bay. Our licensed plumbers and certified drainlayers work from our base in Onekawa, Napier, and we’re a member of Master Plumbers.
Most of our work comes from word of mouth, and we aim to keep it that way: turn up on time, keep things tidy and get the job done properly the first time. More about us.
