A Black Rock Homeowner's Plumbing Issue Story
Midweek during school holidays, a first-home buyer in Black Rock near Black Rock Beach noticed ongoing plumbing concerns that previous tradespeople had failed to properly resolve. Properties in Black Rock often have unique plumbing configurations due to the mix of building eras in the area, and this home was a typical example.
“1. Response time just plainly incredible. I rang up with a non-urgent issue Wednesday 5 pm, Dave was in front of my door 8 am Thursday. 2. All work was quoted up front and explained why it is needed, no surprises. 3. Great quality work in record time, Dave ended up fixing two long-outstanding issues and two preventive maintenance issues, all in record time but still good solid quality work; Dave double and triple checked all of his work to full satisfaction. 4. From my first call to the handshake at the end: friendly service. 5. Warmly recommended. :-)”
— Franz Grunta ★★★★★
When our plumber arrived, they took the time to listen to the customer's concerns before beginning the inspection. The issue turned out to be wear and tear from years of normal use, which they repaired using quality materials built to last.
