Request a quoteEikestad Plumbing was the Service Provider. Would rate their service as 5 as they responded timeously with the issues reported resolved with the quality that appears to very good as no issues experienced after it was fixed...We are very satisfied. Also Andre, the owner, quite a jovial person and very professional. Will use them again in the future.
Thanks Peter and I must add it makes it easier when the client is the friendliest and very hospitable was a great pleasure meeting you and hope we can continue doing business in future
The other leads never called me, only Andre called me. He was very professional, and did a great job fixing my gutter and reconnecting my downpipe. He kept me informed about time, and came well prepared. He even told me that I could call him should I have any other plumbing needs.

Request a quoteI got very good service from them. The problem were sorted immediately.
I found Denver and Morne both serious when discussing the project prior to quoting, and engaging/approachable about any query I raised before and during the work. At no point did they rush the work or cut corners. The finished job looks really good. I got five quotes in all: they were the most expensive, and significantly so relative to the next highest quote. I would have liked to pay less, but chose them as I felt they understood the work required and would not leave me with worries about quality.
