We think it would be good if every plumber publicly offered a warranty on their labour and the parts they install in people’s homes. On top of this, it’s ideal when a plumber also offers a satisfaction guarantee – assuring you, the paying customer, that the repair or installation you pay for is not done until you’re satisfied that it’s finished.
It’s good to see that Akal Plumbing and Heating is heading in the right direction by offering a satisfaction guarantee.
