Client: Te Puea Memorial Marae
Prodigy Plumbing Gas & Drainage has proudly supported Te Puea Memorial Marae across multiple stages of redevelopment, delivering a wide range of plumbing, drainage, and gas infrastructure upgrades.
As part of the Stage 3 project, we provided full hydraulic and gas services including external sewer drainage, under-slab and above-slab pipework, HDPE grease lines with heat trace, installation of a 2150L concrete grease trap, and connection of LPG hot water and gas systems. We supplied and installed sanitary fixtures, terminal vents, thermal lagging, accessible WC fittings, a boiling water unit, and commercial tapware, with careful sequencing alongside other trades.
Additionally, we completed installation of a new fire hydrant main and valving with double-check backflow prevention and traffic-rated bulk boxes, a 125mm future-proofed fire and water main for rear developments, and water main extensions to existing office buildings with isolation and access provisions.

“A stand out project is Te Puea Memorial Marae rebuild, which holds significant cultural importance. Prodigy was not only proactive in finding solutions to any challenges that arose, but they also showed great respect for the tikanga requirements specific to the project. Their team upheld these principles throughout the entire process, which was vital to the success of the build.”
