Customer Review

“I had a really great experience with Richard Rea Plumbing. Right from the start I received prompt replies to my emails, helpful advice and a fair and reasonable quote for my new bathroom.
Dean and Marshall were friendly and helpful and came up with good suggestions for a couple of tricky problems.
Nothing was too much trouble, and Dean in particular went the extra mile for me several times when I had a few extra jobs that needed attending to.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company - it's so difficult these days to find tradespeople who give prompt friendly service and good communication.

Thank you!”
