Paul at Abracadabra arrives fast and solves problems right the first time, often at below-quote prices. Reviewers over six years consistently praise his reliability, professionalism, and fair rates across emergency drains, gas hot water systems, and tap work.
Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
Gillies Group has built a strong reputation in Subiaco for speed and straightforward service. Customers report technicians arriving on time, quoting upfront without hidden costs, and completing jobs efficiently, with specific praise for staff like Patrick, Jay, and Joshua.
Phone bookings are straightforward and staff arrive on time. Plumbers explain work clearly, respect customers, and tidy up after themselves, treating all jobs from burst pipes to full bathroom renovations with the same care. Many customers are repeat clients over years or even decades. Burst solar tanks, gas leaks in roof spaces, blocked drains, and major renovations all draw praise for speed and problem-solving. Technicians like Jesse and Zeke are named for their patience and professionalism. The business covers plumbing, gas, and electrical work across Perth and northern/southern suburbs.
Smartfix builds strong reputations for quick response times and clean work. Multiple reviewers name staff (Kyle, Tom M, Bailey, Nathan, Eddie, John, Ben) and praise their friendliness and technical knowledge. Most jobs book same-day or next-day. Two serious complaints emerge: one reviewer paid four times competitors' quotes for a switchboard upgrade, and another faced days of silence on a warranty issue in Esperance, then felt dismissed by management. These outliers sit against 84% five-star reviews, but warranty handling and pricing consistency warrant checking quotes.
