WHY IT'S IMPORTANT TO CHOOSE A MASTER PLUMBER FOR YOUR PLUMBING NEEDS

Geelong Plumbing Co is a proud member of Master Plumbers.


Plumbers play a vital role in developing and maintaining public health and safety through access to clean water and sanitation and gas appliances' safe installation and servicing. While Victorian consumers enjoy high plumbing standards, it is essential that this work is overseen by a knowledgeable, respected and well-resourced regulator.


When you use a Master Plumber, you choose a plumber who is held accountable to qualities, services and standards applied by the Association and follows a code of ethics.



Geelong Plumbing Co is a proud member of Master Plumbers, following the high standards and business conduct required in its Code of Ethics:
