What customers said about installation
William provided great service. He was friendly, quick, reliable and we appreciate the work when we had an unexpected emergency. On our list for service next time. Thanks!
I had a very disappointing and frustrating experience with Baker Brothers. I hired them to install an EV charger, and they improperly wired the electric panel—a serious safety issue that should never happen with licensed professionals. To make matters worse, while they were on-site, they claimed I had a pipe leak…
Dalen & cody did an absolutely tremendous job. The speed and professionalism was superb
Ashton was great. Friendly, polite, and very professional. He quickly and thoroughly diagnosed the entire AC
Michael came out to give us an estimate on new RO installation that also involved installing a new faucet. He was professional, neat, friendly and did an amazing quality job. He also connected a refrigerator water filter for us. Plumbing work is so expensive but Michael made it a bit easier.
Great work done by Nicholas Kempton to install a new kitchen under the sink water filter system and new bathroom faucet. I highly recommend him and Aussie Plumbing for all your plumbing needs. Friendly, considerate, responsive, and professional. Much appreciated! Vickie
