Kernow Plumbing

Great service .

Always here to help out for all plumbing jobs.

We had a burst pipe at our rental house, we called these guys and they came the same day and found the leak and repaired it on the spot. They charged $90 and this included some labour to diagnose and do some digging , once they dug up a section in the garden and found the issue We were called from site and given a price up front before they carried out the repair work which we were more than happy with. I wish all my tradies were this on the ball.

The guys came out the same day and carried out a few jobs for us. They were polite and professional, they gave us an upfront price and we are really happy with the service.

I rang what I thought appeared to be a local town plumbing business. Steve (name changed) answered and told me he was away, but had someone covering for him while he was away and asked me to text my details to another mobile number. Subsequently a plumber from another town arrived promptly as agreed and professionally performed the required job.

I then received an invoice from a Perth Plumbing and Gas Fitting business. The charges were high and I suspect they reflected the sub-contracted plumber's price plus another 25-30% mark up. The materials charge was more than double the retail price at the local hardware (over 100% mark up). I questioned the charges and asked for an itemised list of materials charges. This was not given. Steve rang back and gave me some high verbal prices. I checked prices against the same things at the local hardware. They were nowhere near as high as those he gave me. I argued about this and eventually got the materials price reduced. I wanted to support a local tradesman but ended up paying costs plus extra profit margins to a large Perth plumbing business.

Very prompt and helpful, came out same day and helped us with our burst pipe. Good service and good price.
