Fast, friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommendPatricia Hoyle The Plain English Expert 'I have used Good Hands Plumbing & Drains for multiple plumbing and roofing jobs including clearing a drain of highly compacted roots, lining old terracotta pipes and fixing several roof leaks. One task involved installing a custom designed flashing for an existing skylight. For each job, I was provided with a detailed option sheet and shown videos and photographs both before and after the job. Aidan and Sandy and their teams were at all times friendly, professional and efficient and there was minimal disruption. Communication was excellent and Hannah (office) was a dream to deal with. I highly recommend Good Hands Plumbing.'Elise Aspeling Great service, great team and always a great experience with Good Hands Plumbing!Jason Gibbs First time ever needing a plumber and the team at Good hands were great to deal with.
