We first called upon John and the team at Franklin Plumbing and Gas because of his outstanding reputation as a trusted member of the community. No matter the job, we have full trust in the team to efficiently install, repair and safeguard. Their open communication throughout the entire process is exemplary and makes them extremely easy to work with. The team recently installed a full new bore line (80m) and not only did they complete the job from start to finish, the plumbers on site were proactive in finding and repairing cracked pipes that we were unaware of. They are one of our most reliable service provider and we would recommend Franklin Plumbing and Gas to anyone in need of quality work.
