MB Plumbing

A WARNING TO ALL! MICHAEL BATEMAN OF MB PLUMBING IS CURRENTLY IN LIQUIDATION. I HAD HIM DO WORK FOR ME WHICH WILL NOW COST WELL OVER THE $50,000 INSURANCE IS COVERING.

Approximate cost: $80000

I was not informed that three grown men were going to attend my property and threaten to break my fingers as well as, call my 85+ year-old neighbor horrific words that I will not repeat. I was commented on my physique and they informed me they were wanting to come back. Our water was cut off for more than four hours without notice and I asked him to leave my property and they once again physically told me they would hurt me. What worried me about the most was one of the three men, ( I wouldn’t be able to tell you who it was ) kept screaming about meth, I’m unsure if he was saying because I have a skinny physique it was about me or it was because he needed it. Either way I believe this needs to be looked into..

This guy has form over many years and needs to be avoided by everyone

Approximate cost: $850

Very poor workmanship.
Hard to believe he is a qualified plumber. I've had to employ numerous plumbers over the years to fix the shower he installed as it has repeatedly leaked and the toilet that he incorrectly installed. All the other plumbers have commented on how everything was incorrectly installed and how the incorrect parts were used.
Do yourself a favor and find a different plumber.

Approximate cost: $10000

Don't even bother with this guy! Michael was great on the phone - very friendly when he made a time to do the job. But he was a no show on the promised day, with no communication. On 2nd attempt to book his services, he was once again a no show - with no communication. Promised to call back to book a 3rd appointment - never heard from him. Don't waste your time.....

We had Michael and his apprentice Jack out to do a rough-in for a new toilet and replace some old pipes. Michael was reasonably priced, easy to communicate with, and completed high-quality work. I'd happily hire him again for work in the future.

Approximate cost: $1800

Would not recommend you use this business poor workmanship has caused the shower to leak

Approximate cost: $10000

Michael was fantastic.
Phoned him first thing in the morning when we discovered our hot water service was broken. After a quick discussion about our needs he organised a new unit for us, and even installed it that afternoon on his way home so that our kids (and us) would have hot water.
He was absolutely first class, friendly and approachable, cleaned up the area and took the old unit away after finishing, and sent the bill through afterwards.

On a side note: Although we were completely happy with the job, I actually called two others afterwards to get an idea on pricing to make sure it was fair. So I was even happier to find that his pricing was also a little under theirs.

Con Artist. Would give zero stars if I could. Takes your money and runs. He's unlicensed and full of it.

Approximate cost: $1000
