Vance called to give notice when he was arriving. He was very professional and did great work. When some parts we'd purchased didn't fit properly (our error) he provided excellent advice.
Vance was extremely clean and tidy, and cleaned up everything after completing his work.

Nick fixed our watering system solenoid. He first had to diagnose the problem and work in an awkward position and negotiating muddy conditions to fix it. He also fixed a couple of surprise leaks as he worked. He then replaced the internal working of the toilet cistern. We are very happy with his work.

Nick had phoned earlier and confirmed his time of arrival. He was very attentive to our requirements, explained clearly our.options, was extremely efficient in completing his work, and completed all administrative tasks with courtesy and discharge.
We were delighted with the service he provided, and the overall attitude and performance of you company.

I called for a plumber at 11am and John arrived within the hour.
John Moss completed the job as required and was polite and well versed in his trade. I will use The Plumbing & Electrical Doctor again. The job included a complicated move of my water meter among several other connections to do so.

Approximate cost: $650

Hi Sam,

Thank you so much for your review and we are glad that John was able to help you out. If there is anything else that you need just let us know.

William the electrician who called could not be faulted in terms of the work he carried out. He called beforehand to advise he would be there within a specific time frame; by which time he arrived.
With regards to the work required, William provided options and recommended the best to go with. Although I did not expect to spend as much as it cost, I was, and still am, happy with the outcome.
I cannot speak for the whole organisation, but I would request for William to attend to any future requirements.

Approximate cost: $350

Hi Warren,

Thank you so much for your review and rating. It really is appreciated. We will be passing this feedback on to William about the outstanding service that he provided to you.

If there is anything more that we can do for you, plumbing or electrical, then please don't hesitate to call.

Warmest Regards,
The Plumbing & Electrical Doctor.

The written word is a better way of expressing my feelings on the way I was treated by your staff.

Both the lads I had working here deserve a 10 out of 10 for the way they carried out their tasks and you are very lucky to have such people working for you, don't loose them.

Hi Warren,

Thanks so much for your feedback. It is much appreciated. We will be sure to let the team know what a great job they did for you.

If there is anything else you need from us then please do not hesitate to call.

I would not recommend this firm for electrical work. The attending technician appeared to be inexperienced.

First up, he was unable to answer or give me any assurance about an electrical question I had.

Then, he had no idea on how to hang a new ceiling pendant until I showed him how the old one was attached.

My chief reason for the call was to have two lights mounted over the bed. He was not prepared to drop a cable down the wall cavity, choosing rather to take the cables across to the new position. Unfortunately, the second bed lamp hit a stud and rather than attach it properly, he chose to put a machine screw into the drywall until it hit the stud, rather than use an appropriate wood screw. The light fell off the wall the first time it was bumped.

Then he said he couldn't wire the indicator LED to the switch for that light, saying he didn't have a neutral, in spite of the leaflet directions describing how this would be done. I had to convince him to wire the LED across the switch, as specified in the instructions as an alternative.

A fourth switch plate over the dressing table was not fitted properly to the wall, left crooked and leaving a gap. He didn't assemble the switch bezel correctly, so that once turned on (press-button) it could not be turned off. If turned off by removing the dress plate, pressing the switch, then replacing it, it could not be turned on.

The cost of this work was $1800, for one and a half hours on the job.

Hi Keith,

Firstly, thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. This certainly does not sound like the level of work or expertise that we expect from our tradespeople. Fortunately, we do back all of our work up with lifetime workmanship guarantees and we are more than happy to send another technician out to your property to address this for you. Unfortunately we don't have any 'Keith J's' in our database for the ACT so we would need you to give our office a call so that we can find your account. Please give us a call on 13 10 91.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused, but we will get to the bottom of this for you.

Kindest Regards,
The Plumbing & Electrical Doctor.

I was very pleased with the service that I received.

Firstly, when I mentioned that I had interstate guests visiting, you were able to arrange for a quicker appointment on the same day rather than within 2 days, which was very much appreciated.

I was told that someone would make contact with me between 2pm and 5pm. I received a phone call at 205pm and the gentleman was very polite and came when he said he would.

My husband is currently in hospital and, with interstate visitors as well, it was a great relief not to have to wait about or wonder all day what time or when the plumber would arrive.

The plumber who attended to my plumbing problem was polite and helpful, he came inside on one occasion and was thoughtful enough to check the cleanliness of his boots before he entered. He also cleaned up after himself so that there was no trace of him having done the work required to unblock the drain.

I have no hesitation in recommending your services to others, and will keep you in mind should there be any future problems.

We are so happy that we were able to be of service to you Diana. If there is anything more that we can assist you with then please don't hesitate to give us a call.

Kindest Regards,
The Plumbing & Electrical Doctor.

We had The Plumbing & Electrical Doctor out this week to fix several problems at our property in Fletcher.

I was very satisfied with the customer service provided on the phones, and extremely satisfied with the behaviour, attitude and manners of the 3 technicians that attended our property - Toby, Blake and Blake.

All 3 had exemplary customer service skills, manners and behaviour.

I would have no hesitation recommending your firm to family and friends.

Approximate cost: $2100

I have been having tap leaking problems for 18 months. Your tech Patrick came and refused to patch up dodgy work, advised me of the best solution, and said a quote would be prepared.

I thought his advice was professional, easy to understand and to the point. He saved me heaps of time and money and was an outstanding representative of your company.

I thoroughly recommend him to any client, and should I have a need again, I'll be in touch with your company.

I wish to say a few word about Pat Wilson, one of your plumbers. He attended my residence this morning for a plumbing issue that was a big concern to me. He managed to turn otherwise traumatizing experience into a pleasant one (and I met quite a few tradesmen in my lifetime).

I was very impressed with his professional, calm and friendly approach, he explained everything to my full satisfaction and he even made me laugh. He is such a credit to your company. I felt confident to go ahead with the job on spot and I even signed for the 12 months membership. Because if this is an example of kind of people you have on your staff, than I don’t need to look anywhere else for my future plumbing/electrical needs.

A big thank you to Pat- you are my Irish champion and I’m looking forward to seeing you next time I need plumbing services.
