❝ W. L. Chivers Plumbing are always friendly, reliable and deliver good quality in their work. We would recommend them to anybody. We have been using these plumbers for our plumbing needs over the past 8 years since we first bought our home, and we have NEVER been disappointed.
Today, they installed our new Continuous Hot Water System, and once again, they have done a FANTASTIC job.
Arran Bartholomeusz
❝ I've used WL Chivers for a couple of hot water repairs now. They were very responsive and organised on the phone, with prompt arrival and rapid diagnosis and repair of the problem. Friendly, got the tick of approval from my dog, good job done. Will happily use again for future plumbing needs.
Andrew Leech
❝ Excellent work. Very fast emergency response. Efficient. Clear communication. Quote was accurate, reasonable and honored. Came out same night at 7pm to do quote, then ordered parts and came back to complete the job at 11am next day. Extremely happy. They left the house clean and tidy, taking rubbish with them. The work done was supply and install pan collar rubber to stop toilet leaking and changing a toilet seat. Highly recommend Jordan and Mitch.

❝ Chivers Plumbing came highly recommended to me by my Body Corporate Manager following significant damage to my house caused by another plumbing service. Mitchell diagnosed and fixed the job quickly at a good price, high standard and in a very pleasant & professional manner. Will use again.

❝ I always use Chivers Plumbing. The guys are always on time, available in an emergency and do a great job. I also use them for any jobs at my mums house too. Always tidy, reliable and an expert job done by them. Really nice, polite guys too.
Cathy James
❝ Very professional crew all the way from Jordan down to the apprentice they treat your place as if it was theirs. Really happy with my big job - a complete sewer replacement under house and full trench across the yard.
Gary Thorpe
❝ Sewage blockage: Mitchell today did a great job, gave honest appraisal & clear explanation of the problem which he fixed & we have a forward plan for future maintenance over future years which we greatly appreciate. I heard about Chivers years ago from a friend. I now know why they were so highly recommended. They'll now be my "go to" plumbers always, for all jobs.
Julie O'Connor
❝ Called them at 4pm on a Sunday with a burst rusted out pipe in my front garden. Kyle was at my house by 5pm, they couldn't fix the issue immediately (due to no fault of theirs), but was back by 10am this morning, fixed and water back on. I cannot fault the service, highly recommend this company.
