I called in an absolute panic after my kitchen tap came off and my living space started flooding badly. I’m not sure exactly how much water came out, but it felt like hundreds of litres, probably more. I was literally splashing through my own lounge room when I called.
He arrived so quickly, within about 15 minutes, and was immediately calm, kind and solution-focused. The first thing he did was tell me to take a deep breath, which honestly helped more than he probably realised. He turned the water off, brought in a water vacuum, replaced the tap, cleaned up what he could, even mopping the floor while I slowly put everything back in its place, and he gave practical advice on how to manage the remaining clean-up, including dehumidifiers and next steps.
On top of being clearly excellent at what he does, he was genuinely lovely, funny, personable and reassuring at a time when I was very much not having the best day.
An absolute lifesaver. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Scottie during such a stressful situation. It's heartwarming to know that he was not only able to fix the issue promptly but also provide a comforting presence during a difficult time. If you ever need any assistance in the future, remember that Guardian Plumbing is always here to help. Take care and don't hesitate to reach out for any plumbing needs.
Warm regards,
Guardian Plumbing and Gas Services - Guardian Plumbing Team

From the moment Scotty arrived, he was professional, punctual, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing.
What really stood out was his honesty. He took the time to explain what the problem was.
The work itself was excellent. He had the right parts, got the job done efficiently, and hot water was back up and running the same day.
I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone needing a reliable, trustworthy plumber. He’s earned a customer for life!
