The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Positive
“I scheduled my appointment and I received a text notification when they were arriving. Our toilet was running and they quickly assessed the problem and replaced our fill valve. They also fixed another problem of a low water level in toilet tank with another toilet. That was a quick fix. Patrick and Dylan were very professional and efficient. I would highly recommend Sunwave Plumbing.”
“Ben was great to work with. Very personable and made recommendations that would save us time and money before he even started the work. The work itself took hours and two additional team members (Gareth and Thomas) who were also great. Hoping to not need them much, but when the next inevitable plumbing crisis arises I'll be contacting Sunwave.”
