What Our Clients Say

Best plumbing service I’ve dealt with in a long time. Chris is superb, I was recommended by a family friend. Best to book ahead as he is very busy but worth the wait. He took into account my mothers arthritic needs as she had issues with turning the kitchen sink handles and resolved the leaking issue and took the time to show and explain everything. Thank you Chris, hope to deal with you again for further plumbing solutions.

Suzie Ferreira

We had a Saturday morning plumbing emergency, with water backing into our downstairs bathroom. Chris arrived within an hour and was able to sort the issue quickly. He explained and demonstrated what the problem had been and provided great advice for possible long term solutions. I chose Civic based on being local and great google reviews and I’m glad we did.

Ingrid Johnston

Awesome service. Called up and had my hot water tank replaced. Chris the plumber even helped me out by removing a rusty screw. Great service, from first call to problem being fixed was less than 45 minutes.

Very professional, Chris dealt with a few small and big issues in my house in Redfern. I was impressed at his skill, the quality of his work, and speed, bust most importantly he is very reasonable with how he quotes and prices, making sure you are not over paying.
