Told $7,000 for a new gas main. Fixed for $1,800.
A customer had been told they could be facing a full gas main renewal. Instead of quoting the biggest possible job, Josh went looking for the real problem.
- Organised temporary hot water so they weren’t left without overnight
- Came back the next day and located the actual leak
- Repaired it, rather than replacing the whole gas main
The quote
The customer had been told they could be facing around $7,000 for a gas main renewal.
Something didn’t sit right
Something about the process didn’t sit right. Josh organised temporary hot water so the customer wasn’t left without it overnight, then returned the next day and spent time locating the actual leak.
The real problem
Repair the leak where it was, rather than replace the entire gas main.
The outcome
Repaired for around $1,800 — roughly $5,200 less than the full renewal.
A tradie who cares more about the job than the clock.
Josh would rather take the time to do it properly than rush off to the next job. His name is on every job, and he wants you to be happy recommending him to your family and neighbours.

Absolute legends beat our other quotes by a mile(which was even better considering the fact it was a big job) and were prompt, professional and lovely. They were very accommodating to the the fact that my partner works night shift…
