Called up these guys to come look at a blocked drain in our house. They arrived exactly when they said they would and had it sorted in no time. Super friendly and knowledgeable and explained everything they were doing to make it easy to understand the issue and what they were doing to resolve it. Really happy with the service. Would certainly have no issue recommending them to friends and family 😊😎👍

Had some recent problems with a pump feeding rainwater tank water to laundry and toilets, and a separate issue with a misbehaving shower. Rick from GPS got things sorted. He's a good operator. Friendly, kept me informed and has exceptionally high standards with regard to customer service, professionalism and of course, the quality of his work. Please pass on my thanks to Rick * * * * * 5 stars. Cheers. Bernard.
