What do recent reviews say?

Most jobs run smoothly and on time, with staff described as polite and professional. Rhys and his team earn praise for responsive service, especially on hot water emergencies and diagnostics using specialist equipment. However, several recent reviewers report significant bill shock, citing undisclosed call-out fees and markups perceived as high for straightforward work. One client paid $753 (parts and labour) for a mixer tap cartridge replacement completed in under an hour; another was quoted $650 for two jobs deemed not to require plumbing skills. Where pricing is discussed upfront and agreed, satisfaction follows. When it is not, frustration runs deep and repeat business stops.

The recurring concern is transparency at the quoting stage. Reviewers consistently ask for written quotes and warn others to do the same. A $135 call-out fee was allegedly imposed without prior notice. Staff demeanor reportedly shifts after payment is due. Prompt arrival and tidy work are genuine strengths, but the pricing model appears to risk customer trust when fees are revealed only on the day or after completion.
