55%"At first we were please with the service that 5 Star Plumbing gave, they came quickly to examine a potential water leak (within two hours of being contacted). Michael came and told us very quickly where he found the leak to be and that it was very loud 56db and that was it. Upon being asked if there was a second leak elsewhere he said no, and advised directional drilling the length of the drive to rectify. The total length of time was less than fifteen minutes. There was no physical probe used,… only auditory. Subsequent to being informed of the cost of this, we sought a second opinion. The second opinion dug where Michael said the leak would be and not only was there no leak near that area, there was not a pipe. The pipe being within a reasonable margin of error (approx 1m) away but there was no leak on that section of pipe. A leak was found approximately 25m away. Overall we have been thoroughly disappointed with the service provided."Rating by: Baz | Rating posted: 5th Apr | Contact: Michael | Job date: Mar, 2018Baz•5th Apr•More details…

40%"Have had 3 jobs done by 5 star. First was a bath tap re positioning which was done well. Second was a pressure fix that ended up causing a leak which they needed to be called back for, though that was done free. Third was a kitchen fit out which initially looked good but ended up failing within a year.
Started off reasonably well but I won't use them again. Secretary is sometime difficult to work with. Michael did all our work.

65%"I used 5 star plumbing for a recent very simple leak. Plumber came promptly and did the job well and was a nice guy. THe invoice however was higher than i expected (1.25 hours charged when he was there for about 45 mins. I expected 1 hour) and when challenged I was told I'd already received a "discount" of $30 travel charge that I wasn't initially informed of. Also $15 + GST for about half a metre of standard polybutelene pipe!! what the!
Shame about the invoice because the… plumber/plumbing was good but i won't use again.
"Michael responded:"As I have explained before, but I'll elaborate here: *No travel was charged. We are on the North Shore, but our plumbers work in the greater Auckland area. This depends where they come from, charges are according to their GPS. *We do not charge less than an hour for the first hour + travel. This is a set first hour charge. *The bute pipe on the invoice shows 5meter, but the charge is not for the 5meters. We would usually charge for the full 5m, the rest is tipped."Rating by: Mark | Rating posted: 8th Sep, 2017 | Contact: Juan Mullany | Job date: Sep, 2017Mark•8th Sep, 2017•More details, one reply…

90%"We had a leak in the water main and called 5 Star Plumbing to check it out. They found the leak pretty quickly and gave us two options for the repair. The quote came through the next day. The day before the scheduled repair day we got a call that some equipment has broken down. But the team at 5 Star Plumbing promised to do what they can to reschedule asap. Fortunately they came a few days later. Since the leak was under our shared drive way, we opted for the directional drilling method which… turned out to be perfect. The job was done quickly and professionally with minimum impact and no mess! I can only recommend the company!"Michael responded:"Thank you Susanne"Rating by: Susanne | Rating posted: 10th Aug, 2017 | Contact: Michael | Job date: Aug, 2017Susanne•10th Aug, 2017•More details, one reply…

0%"I would HIGHLY recommend NOT using this business. Today we paid $600 to another plumber to redo a job done by 5 Star. The new plumber just shook his head at what 5 Star had done. There were so many mistakes there would not be room to list them. The funniest one (if in fact one can even laugh about it) was piping hot water into the toilet cistern and the deadliest one was changing the shower setting from cold to hot and the hot to cold (this wasn't even supposed to have been touched and burnt… the first person into the shower after 5 Star had been). The son who did the job neither had the tools or parts, so there were 4 trips getting what was required. One part was charged out to us MORE than DOUBLE the Mitre 10 retail price. We were charged $1300. The account was to be paid the same day we received it and while we were trying to negotiate about the problems we were threatened the account was incurring 1% charges on a daily basis. They never returned to fix or sort any of our issues and we stupidly paid the bill. They did shoddy work. The son was more interested in his phone than the job and we were over charged on time AND even for a "call out" that NEVER happened. On the initial check Michael was by far more interested in talking of his personal life than the job which got little more than a quick cursory look. If you value your money and your job DO NOT use this company."Michael responded:"We always recommend to our clients to NOT use imported products. These products constantly give problems and parts are not readily available like locally manufactured items. How is it possible to charge a product out double the $'s when our system have set prices sourced from our suppliers, can not change it on the system. With regards to the tools. Once again, locally manufactured products are so easy to use when you have locally manufactured tools that suit. Imported products (depending where its from) are of a different design and use different tools. This means we do not carry imported tools. We only use the best tools for our jobs. Most clients prefer using local products. Legally hot water is supposed to be situated on your left, plumbers rule. With the original pipework in place, this was obviously not so when plumbed. Simple mistakes are easy to fix, we did fix our mistakes without any disputes. Waters should be tested first before climbing in. This job was done as a charge-up. This means, every time we go back it is charged from the 1st hour + travel + GST. We did not charge the extra trips. We gave over $100 credit/discount. All our invoices are payable on the same day. If a client lets us know that they can not pay it the same day, we are fair and flexible in that regard. Our staff rely on their devices to: take photos of the job, communicate with the office, and load materials. This is an essential part of their day. Michael is VERY passionate about his work AND his personal life. If asked, he will elaborate on his personal life. There was a lot of interest from the client there. The only way to form a relationship with someone is to know a little more about them."Rating by: Mel | Rating posted: 1st Aug, 2017 | Contact: Michael | Job date: Jul, 2017Mel•1st Aug, 2017•More details, one reply…

100%"VERY happy with job.
Had PlumbQuick come three times, couldn't find the leak or the water pipes entry point, suggested I pull down walls bit by bit until they found it. Thought this a little extreme.
Seeked second opinion, Michael came, within ten minutes he had found the leak, he worked confidently which gave me reassurance.
Job done and dusted within the fortnight - very pleased.

Rang him again. Still no action. Donald Trumped him! ***** Rang 5 Star. Mike arrived about 1 hour later. Within 15 minutes leak was located and repair was swift. So relieved. 5Star are now my "goto guys" for my 17 Auckland properties.

Mike was upfront with possible additional cost for materials which was less than $100. I had no problems with communication as I was kept informed of what was happening and the job was completed within the discussed time-frame. The installation saved me almost $500 on an earlier quote for the same job.… Thank you Mike and Juan."Rating by: Michael | Rating posted: 12th Jan, 2017 | Contact: Mike Mullany | Job date: Jan, 2017Michael•12th Jan, 2017•More details…

0%"Today I paid another plumber to come and replace a tap that 5 Star Plumbing reoaired three months ago. I've phoned Michael twice now and he a. doesn't get back to me, or b. makes a time and doesn't show up. It was his son who did the initial work and every plumber I've spoken to since has said why did they repair the tap, cheaper and much better long term to get a new one. The other tap repair in the laundry also has them shaking their heads. Even though 5 Star have been back to look at it, it… seems it more than likely needs a 'top assembly' and that's why it's still not turning off properly (remember 5 Star a. did the initial repair, and b. been back to 'repair it' a second time and said I'd just have to turn it off a bit harder than the other tap). $400 out of pocket for 5 Star's work and now I've had to buy a new tap for upstairs and pay $120 for the second plumber. I still have to fix the laundry tap. Unfair... Can't understand why other people have had good work when I got such a raw deal.

The basins showed clear signs of manufacturing defects and he immediately reported this to the basin supplier. The supplier agreed to inspect and reported back, advising that they would agree to pay for the installation of new basins, with Michael doing this job today, very efficiently.
Very well mannered, professional conduct. A no-nonsense, experienced trades… person.

They then returned with a wetvac and left a mess all through the house and blamed the blockage (grease) on me to the landlord. Also tried to charge her for two jobs by cliaming the water cylinder and washing machine don't drain into the same place when clearly you can see they do in the garage.

Came across as nice guys (there were 2 there). There was mess to clean up however. I have had the same work done at a previous property, twice this year so I thought I had an idea of the ball park cost to get this done. Got the invoice, $435 to pay to get two men to unblock the loo. Plunger was used first… the second guy joined him with the machine. Maybe turn up with the machiine so one person can do the job and not have to charge for two. Really expensive! I had left a message on phone but no reply. Sent an email and got one back soon after which was pretty unprofessional.

How often do you get a Tradey offering to come out the same night! We agreed on 8.00 am next day, and Mike arrived on time. I showed him the location and left him to it. Job done, no hassles, s fair charge made, all totally painless, quick… and very much appreciated. This is the second time we have used their service. The previous occasion was more messy, blocked toilet drain. Mike tried to clear it with normal processes but no joy. So he returned with his son who works with him. They set up their hydro thing machine, which cut through the tree roots without needing to dig up the whole drain. About a year ago, no problems since then either. Another really quick and cost effective job done!"Rating by: Hugh | Rating posted: 7th Nov, 2014 | Contact: Mike | Job date: Nov, 2014Hugh•7th Nov, 2014•More details…

I have a major leak in my house some where,probably costing me fortunes (possibly leaky house syndrome) although he couldnt find the fault,his advise was to contact a company that could use technics to trace where the leaks might be.. I did this. just waiting for the outcome!!. Ken also kindly fixed my toilet flush......which was a pain......but all good now. I would recommend this guy to anyone...very helpful .
