After renovating my place over 10 years ago things are starting to need fixing. Broken washing machine, broken toilet seat and leaking water pipe to refrigerator. As I am totally useless when it comes to replacing or fixing things, I needed someone that had the tools and the knowhow on how to get everything mended and fixed. A close friend of mine recommended Paul, as they had issues with their sewerage and some crack pipes due to a root system. So I called Paul up and was quite pleasant and understood everything that I needed to get done. Maybe not a big job but was more than willing to come over the bridge to get some work. As we have been in isolation and Covid-19 has been rampant, he had asked the right questions to see if I was all good and didn’t have symptoms, and also let me know that he was fine. Made me feel good  Well Paul came over, well presented in his tradie uniform. Didn’t come in with muddy boots and didn’t mind a friendly chat, which I am sure he has had many. He was saying that he had been doing it for a very long time. Well first the new washing machine had arrived days before. He installed 2 pipe extenders for the hot and cold water. One I couldn’t fit under my laundry sink to do that, so new washing machine working and I have days of washing to do. Next job was toilet seat, that I had been waiting 2 months for to come from Reece due to the pandemic. I think it came from Italy or something. He took the old one off and replaced it with the new one. Finally I can sit on my new throne and not slide off HAHAHA!!! Lastly Paul pulled out my fridge to see where the leak was coming from. The filter water pipe had a hole in it, so he got that fixed in no time. For some reason I’ve waited 10 years to get that fix and now I can turn on the cold water at my sink and not be scared my apartment was going to flood due to the leak. I can now use the filtered water from the fridge. It may have not taken to long but it was worth Paul doing it in no time but than me doing it all wrong and taking too much time. I also got him to quote on a new showerhead with the extendible hose. Overall Paul was great, well priced and did his job efficiently. …Thanks Paul

Paul Bevins was recently called to re fit a shower mixer handle that had fallen off. The charge for this job was $317 and no new parts were required. Apparently, the surround of the mixer tap needed to be "modified". The result of the "modification" can be seen in the attached pic. It is a mystery that (a) the handle could not be re fitted without any modifications (as had been the case in the past), (b) why the mixer surround needed to be "modified" with such an unsatisfactory result and (c) how this job could have taken 3 hours. Also as noted in a previous review, there was considerable pressure placed on the elderly customer to pay by credit card. Could certainly not recommend this business.

I called Paul to change a tap. He ended up not changing the tap, he only changed the washer and tap bonnet and charged me $180. I had to help him and got water all over myself in the process. I told him that I would only pay $150 as he only worked for literally 1 minute, he didn’t do what I asked him to do and because I had to help him. He started swearing at me and making racist remarks including “you will always be coloured”. He was very unprofessional and acted rudely towards me. I became upset and embarrassed and will never use this man again or recommend him. Save yourselves time and money and use someone else.

I just didn't know what to do with my bathroom it was looking old and tired, I didn't want to go through the expense of a full bathroom renovation. I called Paul Bevins and told him my concerns, he mentioned a soft makeover and explained what he could do. Paul was able to put in a new toilet, tap ware, towel rails, vanity and shower bar. The end price was amazing, and its like a new bathroom

Thank heavens only if you dont give Bevins your credit card! Dishonest and unprofessional. Does not provide a formal contract then makes critical errors but says it wasnt in the scope of works. Makes customers sign do and charge invoice then repeatedly uses customers credit cards without invoicing or consent for thousands of dollars. SHAMEFULL!!!

Absolutely useless! Charged $80 for the call out (which took him more than a day to turn up, even though it was an emergency) then $150 for 35 mins work and he only fixed 1 of 2 problems. Then added cost of parts then GST. Had no idea how to fix the second issue which I then fixed myself after looking at YouTube! DO NOT USE HIM EVER!

Stay away drom this plumber... He charged me almost $1000 for 3 hrs worked, and when I asked to itemise cost for each material used he wasn’t very happy and quickly run through without any explanation of how total cost should be. Keep asking my credit card and I feel unsafe / secure dealing with him!!! Stay away feo this guy

When I came home one night to find the sewer pipe had backed up and flooded our house (Yes, it was totally gross!). Paul immediately responded with the repairs and clean up and stayed until the early hours of the morning. Also assisted in dealing with insurance company and Body Corporate.

I have had Bevins do a couple of jobs for me of various sizes, they are always prompt, reliable and charge very fairly. Happy to recommend them and their work. They came put really quickly to fix a broken tap in an emergency last week, thanks guys, always good to know you are on the job!

I called Paul as our hot water heater was not working. He arrived at our home within two hours and had it working again quickly. So grateful that he came so quickly as we had no hot water and our grandchildren due to stay over that night. Thanks for your great service.

Thank you Paul for sorting out all the little problem we’ve been having - leaking taps, dripping showers, replacing taps which had become difficult to manage as we get older with a much better design. We al need a Paul to come and sort us out!

Paul has been my plumber of choice for many years. He keeps the appointments he makes, does the job with the minimum of disruption and explains the cost of the job as it proceeds. He is a nice guy as well. I would recommend Paul to anyone.

Came promptly due to an emergency plumbing issue where the mains could not be shut off. Fixed the problem and organised Sydney water on my behalf. Yes a little expensive but totally worth the hassle free experience

Paul squeezed us into a busy day to replace a leaking mixer, arrived promptly and worked quickly. Lovely bloke. Will recommend him to friends I will definitely keep his number in case we need more work done.

Excellent service from Paul. Prompt, courteous and he does a top job for a fair price. Happy to recommend Paul for all your plumbing work. One happy, satisfied customer : )

Great job last Easter on a blocked drain. I have called Paul out a few times since. Great communication, there when he says he will be and always happy with the price.

I gave Paul a call to organise replacing a mixer in my kitchen. He managed to fit me in on the same day. He was polite and took no time at all to complete the work.

Paul responded quickly, arrived on time the next morning, explained the situation & costs & completed the job quickly. He was friendly & helpful. Thanks Paul!

Paul turned up promptly and at the correct time, he did the work exactly as asked for, price was about right for the callout parts and work done, thanks !!

Charges $160 ph for a trade that ranges between $50-$80 ph. Customer service: see below response when questioning the invoice:

Solid quality workmanship. Professional Service will definitely use again
