Fantastic service! I called Craig regarding a possible gas leak at 5.00pm (gas had been capped off - non urgent call out), Had Stephen come out 9.00am next morning and got everything sorted. Would definitely recommend and use again in future.

I would like to thank Craig for organising the repair of my gas ducted heating on such short notice. Devon showed up with his offsider Steve. Within minutes they had identified the problem. They then proceeded to repair it promptly. Explaining the process all the way. Devon and Steve are really nice guys. I have no hesitation in recommending Craig’s plumbing.
