★★☆☆☆
I honestly couldn’t believe this quote.
Turbo Plumbing Solutions quoted me $5,480 just to connect my shed downpipes into the existing stormwater system, $3,749 for a strip drain, and even tried to sell me a $99 VIP membership on top.
After getting the quote, I dug all the trenches myself and will be doing the backfilling. Seeing what’s actually involved made the quote seem even more unreasonable. I understand plumbers have overheads, insurance and warranties, but there’s no way I can justify paying thousands of dollars for what turned out to be a straightforward stormwater connection.
I ended up getting the exact work completed by Maxflow Plumbing for $500, fully licensed, to code and without any unnecessary upselling.
In my opinion, the quote wasn’t remotely competitive and felt more like an attempt to maximise the invoice than provide fair value for the work required. I’d strongly recommend getting several quotes before accepting anything from Turbo Plumbing Solutions. It saved me nearly $5,000.
