I’d just like to say thanks for the prompt service and the two tradesman/persons did a great job and were a pleasure to work with! As I’m not a builder from the area I have given my clients your details for any work they may need done in the future.

You guys are "crazy good."

Let's start with your receptionist. The phone was answered quickly and cheerfully. That is so pleasant these days.

We rang about a small but important job on Monday 4 March. It was fixed by the end of the day, by Julien Lopez.

He was very proficient, and took the initiative to check other fittings that may have caused future problems. Julien's  personal demeanor towards us was excellent.

We also had Sam fix our solar panel in early February. Same thing. Sam's work was very thorough. He saw things that the initial installer had not fitted. He has a relaxed personality and took away our anxiety.

You are "crazy good" because Wanaka has experienced a building "boom" during the ten years that we have lived here.This has made it difficult to find people to do repairs, yet you seem to manage that. You told us when it would happen and stuck to that arrangement. The pricing was reasonable too. We have been left with such a good feeling of confidence in your company.

Thank you so much for how you operate, and the standards that underpin you and your company.

Kevin Henderson (Optum Ltd) did all the plumbing work for our house in Bannockburn, built in 2007. Kevin and his staff brought a high level of expertise to what was a complicated job, which included solar and gas installation, under floor heating, storm water reticulation, and plumbing of kitchen, laundry and bathrooms.

They were a pleasure to have on the job and Kevin ensured that all work was done in a timely manner. The back up and maintenance provided by Optum since the house build has been excellent. Kevin stands by his work. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kevin and his firm. He offers clients integrity, expertise and a professional approach.

We found Optum Plumbing to be a very professional and easy company to work with, starting from initial consultation and design, right through to installation. The whole job, including ground works for storm water and sewerage, general plumbing and an integrated solar/wet back/radiator central heating system, was completed on time and to quote. Their advice was invaluable, particularly for the central heating system. Their employees worked to high a standard, taking obvious pride in their craftsmanship. Ultimately we have what we want, a simple to heat and warm house, thanks to Optum Plumbing.

Our architect had recommended electrical underfloor heating and whilst the initial capital cost was much less, Kevin convinced us to pay a higher initial cost and pay substantially less as running costs through the year. It took a little while to settle down, but to be fair that was due to incompetence from our electrician and when we got an electrician as competent as our plumber all was fixed and we are good now.

We made the right choice using Optum for our plumbing. Our rural block and non-standard heating system were well designed and the team went above and beyond to fine-tune and have it working as we wanted. We learned that plumbing is not an area to cut costs and it really makes a difference having a team who are skilled and familiar with complex systems and new technologies. We would certainly use Optum again.

We have an Optum designed heating system installed in our new home which was completed in November 2021.  We wished to include a Solar PV heating system in our new house and Optum Plumbing was recommended to us as a local specialist.

We consulted Optum early in our design phase.   At all stages of the project, Optum owner, Kevin Henderson was generous with the time he spent with us to ensure we had a good understanding of our system.   Following installation, we have also enjoyed excellent back up service from Optum.  Kevin and his team are knowledgeable and approachable and we are happy to recommend their services.

We were very pleased with both your promptness & workmanship and will recommended your firm to others.

I did a big build out in Dalefield. I paid top dollar to get the best of everything. However, I used different suppliers and I ended up with a system that wasn’t integrated, was difficult to use, and just didn’t achieve what was promised.

I got Kevin and Optum involved and they took action to integrate everything and actually make it work.

If I’d had them involved from the start I’d have saved tens of thousands of dollars and I’d have gotten what I wanted.

Don’t make the mistake I did!
