Mr Service Plumbing & Electrical

I got charged nearly $1000 to unclog my sink. $700 to put silicone and plunge and $200 to pour some unclogging liquid down the drain that costs $50 at Bunnings. Then they took my phone to give himself a 5 star review.

DUTY OF CARE NOT CONSIDERED - UN-NECESSARY EXTREMELY EXCESSIVE JOB FOR ELDERLY PARENT I was very concerned to discover, after visiting my father who choses to live by himself in his own home, that this business has appeared to have taken advantage… Read more

of my 93 year old father during an overwhelming & stressful hot water problem he encountered recently in his own home. I found that he was not given any options, such as rebates on old gas hot water systems etc and, as he would have been quite focused on having the hot water fixed, he has not understood anything other than trusting that his hot water would be fixed. Yes the problem was fixed but the business representative should have issued a quote before proceeding with the job to allow other family members to review & agree with what was being recommended. It is common knowledge that our elderly parents should not be making these sort of decisions by themselves and businesses need to be mindful of their duty of care to give this opportunity!

My 93 y/o father called this service provider (also known as Mr Service Plumbing & Electrical) after receiving a flyer in his letterbox, to assist with his hot water not working. A representative attended my father's home and after a conversation with my father took $800 payment on the spot and had him sign on a tablet on the same day for works to be done and, to my knowledge, without providing a quote let alone any idea on the total cost. The business attended the next day to 'fix' the hot water problem then took balance of payment, including Pensioner discount, approximately $8,500!

After speaking with the business' Operations Manager who agreed he would not expect his elderly father to make such decisions without referring to family also mentioning that on the day of discussions with my 93 year old father it appeared that my father seemed to understand what was discussed. However my father has no recollection of the total price discussed and was extremely agitated and upset with himself that he had paid such an excessive amount after the plumbers finished the job.

One of the directors has stepped in and also agreed that a 'duty of care' was not exercised prior to commencing this job and this oversight will be a main Toolbox focus moving forward. A refund has been offered and further incentives have been accepted.

I thankfully can say, on this occasion, this business has definitely understood the issue & has restored my confidence to use again if/where needed.

Ben arrived ahead of schedule, in his shining armour on a white horse, and saved the day!! After a very reasonable quote he has probably saved the month!! Huge gratitude Ben. Show reply

I booked 247 Plumbing for today with an appointment window between 8:00 am and 12:00 pm. By 8:30 am, no one had arrived, so I called to check. I was told the plumber would come and would call 30 minutes prior, as I needed to leave for the office by… Read more

noon.

The plumber arrived at 11:35 am without calling.

The issue was that cold water was not coming from the tap. I had already purchased a new tap from Bunnings as a precaution. The plumber said the tap was the issue and replaced it. The problem still remained.

Only after that did he check further and said the actual issue was the cold water filter cartridge under the sink. When I asked to replace it, he said he didn’t carry any filters. Instead, he disconnected the filter completely, meaning the cold water is now unfiltered.

I was then sent an invoice for $319.20 for work that did not properly diagnose the issue in the first place.

I now have two taps, both working, but if the plumber had identified the real issue from the start, I would have saved around $200 and avoided unnecessary work.

Overall, poor communication, late arrival, and incorrect diagnosis. I do not recommend 247 Plumbing.

We had Alexander fit our whole home water filtration system. We were super happy as he was on time, very professional and super helpful. Definitely recommend. Thank you so much for your service. Show reply

Had Alessandro come out and install whole house filtration system this morning. I couldn't be happier with his service and professionalism. Came right on time and did a stellar job. He was informative and really takes pride in his work. Did the full installation and didn't leave a mess for me to clean up. I highly recommend his work Show reply

Thank you for your quick response to my plumbing issue and for sending a very courteous, reliable, professional and very efficient plumber, Alexander. Overall excellent service from Mr Service Plumbing and Electrical. Show reply

We called [Name Removed] to inspect our kitchen tap. He arrived, looked at the tap, and advised that it needed to be replaced. He quoted more than $800 for the replacement and charged a $140 callout fee. He said he would return the following day with a new tap from Reece. After he left, I opened the filter cap and managed to get the tap working… Read more

again myself. During the visit, he repeatedly mentioned the $140 callout fee, and I did not feel that any meaningful inspection or repair work was carried out.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend this service.

I strongly advise others to avoid this company. My experience was almost identical to many of the negative reviews I've now read-the same pressure tactics-the same conditions, and the same unprofessional conduct. A technician attempted to pressure my vulnerable mother into a $21,000 "shower revamp" on the spot, I informed the technician that i… Read more

would be gatting a second quote, Brad the plumber went on and on about how "we will never find a better deal" & that "plumber's are dodgy"when I canclled the job the same day, I was told a manager would call me. Instead the technician Brad himself phoned my landline, raised voice "WHY DID YOU CANCEL" This was aggressive, inappropriate, and completely unprofessional. Throughout this process, the staff gave contradictory explanations for their charges, I was told they were keeping money for things like "driving my mum to the bank at my mother reques" (which is highly untrue)and "being on my property for over an hour" even though No Work was done..Their own staff could not provide a consistent transparent breakdown. After weeks of follow-up, they eventually refunded a portion of $299-this was after my mother had paid a $2,000 cash deposit. They returned the following $1,421 the following week, but the remaining $299 was only refunded weeks later and only after I repeatedly followed up in writing. (May 23 2026b Brad the plumber called my landline asking for me, once my mum informed him that I wasn't home, he told her that he would "pay me to take down my post"..?! My review will never be bought. Everything stated here is based on my direct experience and written communication with this company. Based on this, and the many similar reviews Ive since read, I would not recommend them.

I contacted this service after seeing an advertisement offering a 30% discount for seniors and first‑time customers. When I called to make a booking, I was advised that the discount would be discussed with a representative. Unfortunately, the final cost was much higher than expected and pricing was not clearly discussed upfront. As a result, the… Read more

overall experience did not meet my expectations.

We had a broken hot water pipe in the wall cavity - Ty who did the call out on Sunday of a long weekend was accurate in his assessment and Alex who came later to investigate and undertake the repair was professional and thoughtful in minimizing the opening. Alex completed the repair and l’m very thrilled to have hot water again! Show reply

Michael was very efficient & most helpful. He was also a very polite young man. Glad you have such hardworking & thorough employees in your organisation. He will go far in his career. Show reply

I had Koby and Daniel come out and install my new ducted heater, On the first visit Koby and Reno took the old heater off so I could have the ducts cleaned. They then returned promptly after the cleaning and installed the new one, it was a pleasure dealing with Koby, Reno and Daniel and great to have our heat back on. Show reply

Both Michael and Jason were extremely efficient with re-wiring our entire house for some medical equipment we have in our house. They kept me informed with what was going on, and what they were doing. Very happy with their services and will use again in the future for sure. Show reply
