Karl the plumber was very punctual and carefully explained what would be done to fix my problem. His work and finish was exemplary. I was given an up front quote before any work was done. A free assessment of the plumbing in and around the house was another fine feature of Karl’s work ( for DCM ).My initial contact was over the phone with Gill who was able organise a plumber very quickly for my convenience. She then confirmed who would be attending along with the plumber’s photo and profile. A nice added safety feature for us ‘oldies’ around Burleigh.Thank you DCM.
