Family owned and operated by current owners Dan and Rhiannon Jarvis, the company has continued to flourish, marking their first year at the helm since merging their business, DJ Plumbing & Gasworks, with Dave and Genny Jarvis who had operated Jarvis PlumbGas since 1997. Now trading as Jarvis Plumbing & Gasworks and still located at George Street, Stokes Valley the firm is certifying master plumbers, gasfitters and drainlayers across residential and commercial construction sectors. With a team comprised of 11 highly skilled and licensed installers and apprentices, Jarvis Plumbing and Gasworks boasts a proven track record of successful projects spanning the Hutt Valley, Wairarapa, wider Wellington, Kapiti, and the Hawkes Bay regions. “We’ve recently begun providing services within the Hawkes Bay with a trades team in Napier, so give us a call if you need services there,” says managing director Rhiannon Jarvis. “We’re proud certifying plumbers and gasfitters and very much a family owned and operated business. We value our team who are very much extended family to us.” The company prides itself on providing comprehensive plumbing, gasworks, and drain laying services for both residential and commercial projects. From the installation of hot water cylinders to overseeing the entire design, installation, and sign-off process for new builds, Jarvis Plumbing & Gasworks delivers unmatched expertise and reliability. Notably, the company completed plumbing and gas fitting for one of the top 100 homes in the 2023 nationwide House of the Year Awards - a heritage home in Mt Cook, Wellington, testament to Jarvis Plumbings’ diverse capabilities. Beyond residential projects, Jarvis Plumbing & Gasworks has also undertaken significant commercial projects such as the completion of a large plumbing job at the Hynds Pipe Systems factory in Naenae. Jarvis Plumbing & Gasworks were finalists in the Construction and Trades Excellence category of the 2023 Wellington Regional Business Excellence Awards and although not a winner this time, the experience was valuable, providing insight into the exceptional work being undertaken by business peers across the district. “They put on such an impressive awards night, and we took the whole team and had a fabulous time. It’s an optimistic way to end the year.” Having nurtured and developed 30 apprentices over the years, with four currently on the team, they continue to invest in the next generation of plumbers and gas fitters by partnering with local high schools through the Gateway Programme. Looking ahead, Jarvis Plumbing & Gasworks remains committed to innovation and excellence. At the forefront of gas appliance installation and maintenance, the company offers a range of services, including gas hobs, fireplaces, hot water systems, and heating solutions.
