SANDRA GRUBB
Plumbing, Drainage & Gas Fitting
I coordinate and allocate any general maintenance jobs from our customers, property managers and maintenance companies.
After working in administration & shipping in a meat processing plant, I started with Adams in 2007. Initially, I knew very little about plumbing, but I am very organised and have learned a lot over the past 12 years, and now I know how to boss plumbers around!
I am married with a son & daughter, and we live in Brighton across from the beach; we enjoy taking our dogs for walks and spending time with family & friends - my motto is that life's too short, so take the holiday, buy the shoes and eat the cake.

I am your go-to person in Dunedin for any plumbing, gas fitting or drainage quotes, and I look after small contracts. I completed apprenticeships in plumbing, gas fitting and drain laying. Then later completed two diplomas in Building Control Surveying.
I enjoy mountain biking, hunting, fishing, and spending time with my family and friends.

I run renovation & new house build projects for clients & I manage the gas fitting side of Adams.

After qualifying as a plumber & gas fitter, I have worked on many projects worldwide before settling back in Dunedin in 1995.

I am the Cromwell Branch Manager and have been with Adams for over 20 years.

Upon my return, I came back to Adams as the Dunedin Drainage Manager and then relocated to the sunny Central Otago Cromwell branch in 2014.
