Highlights
"The micro sewerage system failed. Lyndon came the same evening and took away a part for examination. A few days later it was back in and everything working fine. Very knowledgeable and hard working. Very fair pricing. Very happy with the complete experience. Highly recommended."
"Lyndon came very promptly after my phone call and sorted out the problem and removed the blockage. He was very helpful, polite and honest. I would recommend the Company without reservation."
"Very thorough, in the inspection work. Ensured the job was completed to my satisfaction."

Check the WaterSafe registerSmart checks
Before you hire a plumber
Agree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top — in writing — before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced — get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade — not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
