Anyone know Plumber to do a SIMPLE job?
I just need to run a hot and cold Rehau(or similar) pipes 15+/- meters each plus a few outlets. Floor is up, Wall is bare... access is easy. Sure, I can do it myself, But I prefer to have a licensed person do it before I start the kitchen. I've had 2 people come round say sweet, sure, quote a price and say they'll book me in. after that, no response! Anyone with a reliable source please PM me! Seaford Vic area! Andrew

Had a similar experience recently, they said that they'd be here at certain time and never turned up. Gave Jim's Plumbing a call, turned up on time, did the job and left, no hassels. Apparently, unlike their franchises, the plumbers are employed by Jim's and they're on the payroll, so they have to answer to head office if there's a complaint or no show.
Good luck. Cheers, Kraig

all good and all done.
The last guy i contacted, quoted on Sunday, came in at 7:30 today and did the job without hesitation. I queried and he said well, there's Not a lot of money in what you need doing, and people are just lazy nowadays. He even let me use the electric Eel to clear my stormwater pipes. Quite scary screwing 30mtrs of steel thread down a drain, i hoped to god it didn't get caught.
