The first plumbing… company that I tried sent out a man ill-accustomed to women as the bill payers and not the least bit educated in austism. He lost the plot with being asked questions and shouted out the horrible thoughts in his head, and then billed for it. By the time Isaac from Straight Flush arrived, I hadn't slept or eaten properly for around a week. I'd broken out in hives from the stress of the leak, the timing of the leak with rates week and the male superiority complex of the first plumber sub-contracted out by a busier company on the front of the phone book.
The staff at Straight Flush are good people first and brillliant plumbers as a perk. If you are a woman, neurodivergent or in simply fed-up with toxic masculinity and old-school men, call Straight Flush to experience being treated with respect and kindess. Highly recommend and a bow of respect.
Apart from the name of the company, given autistic people are largely visual thinkers and the logo which has a woman upside down, I would rate them 10/10. If they rebranded with Aretha Franklin in a hard hat and a wrench in her hand with the text R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means by hiring a plumber from us' then that would invoke a nicer visual image and catch the eye of women, our elders or anyone fearful of being cowboyed or afraid of unknown men in their house. They could also add a little * to indicate that understanding of neurodivergence is their speciality. They were so kind to tolerate and answer all my questions.
From the front line staff to the technician (Alec) who arrived on time as planned having phoned ahead of time to confirm he was on his way, the service was friendly and professional.
In addition to sorting out my water heater problem Alec also provided me with advice on my oven which I am replacing. I'll be taking… the advice he gave me, and giving the Straight Flush team another call when its time to have it installed.
In a world where nothing can be guaranteed this level of service is worth a great deal.
Nick was friendly and very professional.
Really appreciate that he resolved all in very quick turn around.
10 out of 10!
"Cheers
".
The men were cheery, polite and informative. Showing me a photo of where the leak was occurring.
When I asked about my gas hob, Nik cleaned the jets and got them back into working order.
"However I was later invoiced (by the company not Nick) a bill for $170 for about five minutes work. I… realize of course they had dispatched someone out and that took time and petrol and such and it's entirely fair for them to be paid some amount but $170 is a ridiculous price.
They were very prompt as they arrived right on time. I cannot comment on quality of work or communication as none of those were relevant and the job was terribly priced. However a longer job may have been more reasonably priced but they still do charge $170 an hour
I have not hesitation in recommending them.
"Straight flush is my preferred plumber.
"What on the face of it to me, looked like a very complex operation to re-start a very aged ducted central heating system was taken to with enthusiasm and confidence with Kern explaining to… me what was required and why (I'm nosey like that). The job involved taking the system apart and essentially rebuilding.
I have every confidence in both Kern and Straight Flush's ability to execute and do so in a professional and friendly manner.
Thanks Kern - one very happy household here!
No invoice yet, so don't know if value for money or not!
"No hesitation is recommending the Straight Flush team.
"I have no reservation in recommending this company.
"I would recommend the firm to anyone.
"I have since used Straight Flush for a number of work related jobs - he now maintains and develops… all plumbing aspects of our business premises, and works with us on projects that require care and finish in their execution.
Jeremy always responds quickly and carries out work with absolute professionalism, which is matched by Ngaire in the logistics side of the company.
I have not, and would not, hesitate to recommend Straight Flush to friends and collegues.
STRAIGHT FLUSH PLUMBING ROCKS!!
This job was for a gas leak on a cooker.
As they've done so much work for us we threw a contractors bbq/lunch at our place to thank Jeremy, Ngaire and Oscar for all their outstanding service to us since August 2010.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYS
"This is the third job that Jeremy at Straight Flush Plumbing have done for us in 4 months!
We can't fault anything with his company.
"This was totally renewing all the plumbing in our old ensuite and installing new tapware, vanity and installing a toilet.
Once again we have can't fault the service and the workmanship of this company.
KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK THAT YOU DO GUYS!
"Thanks Straight Flush
"I have already recommended Straight Flush Plumbing to others as everyone I dealt with there were great - Ngaire, Jeremy… and Shane (who was the person who actually did the work)! Friendly, knowledgeable AND efficient – what more could you ask for!
"We used them a couple of years ago to install a new bathroom suite, and have recommended their services to several of our friends and family. They price fairly, and take pride in doing a… great job.
These guys (and gal) are VERY good.
