We liaised with Midland Tune and Service Centre with regard to the air conditioning on our 15 year old Falcon that had always been excellent, but that had suddenly stopped working. They advised that the car be leak tested. We paid for a "leak test" and were told that the system had no leaks, so re-gassing was recommended. We were not informed that the 30 minute leak test that they performed may not reveal a leak but that leak testing the system for a longer period may actually reveal a missed leak. The $259 re-gassing exercise was futile because within a short period of time the air conditioning was no longer working. 

Midland Tune and Service Centre happily offered to test for a leak, didn't inform us that cursory testing may not be reliable (or indicate that a longer testing period is possible), they advised us to re-gas the system at our own cost, then tried to tell us that the leak must have developed after re-gassing (i.e. not their problem). Communication was pathetic and I would not recommend their services to anyone. 

Sam tiled a shower recess for us. It was a difficult job requiring filling in of the old recessed terrazzo area, working within the tight confines of a fully enclosed shower screen, and cutting and laying tiles to match up with existing grout lines in the main bathroom area. The finished job was extremely neat and exceeded our expectations. The work was well priced and completely quickly. We would definitely enlist Sam for any of our future tiling needs.

Approximate cost: $490
