Client Testimonials
The customer service is one of the best I’ve encountered from all staff. They show great knowledge and expertise. The staff certainly fulfills the mission statement on the wall in-store. James lives and breathes customer service, the help, care, and time he gives is second to none. This is a great business to deal with!

“On behalf of the Affinity Owners Corporation committee, I would like to formally advise our appreciation for the prompt attention provided to our pool after the recent red dust storm.
We knew it was going to be a challenge to prepare the pool to an acceptable level for the Affinity Community Australia Day Function. Not only was the pool made presentable, but it was returned to pristine condition. All the attendees at the Australia Day Function were very appreciative and commented on the condition and appearance of the pool. Some adventurous kids braved the coolness and had a swim.
Who would have thought this was possible with a couple of days turn around?
So formally Grant, to you and your team, we thank you for the priority you gave to addressing our pool and to the wonderful service you provided to the Affinity Community in recovering the pools condition.”
Regards Mick Suttie
Chairman, Affinity Owners Corporation Committee.
I want to thank you so much for all your care throughout our big job of moving the pool pump.
It got a little tricky in parts but you really looked after us throughout the process.
It’s clear you really understand your business and your crew, but I think you also really understand your customers!
Wade and his totally crew pulled this off! They would have slept like a log those days, they worked so hard.
Matt has been brilliant in doing the finishing touches, checking the systems and making sure we’re happy with the job.
The other Matt has done an awesome job running all the electrical cabling, and is nearly finished wiring up our little cabana so I can string up my fairy lights!
Today we will be booting up the heat pump to enjoy the pool over the next few beautiful sunny days.
Thanks Grant, to you and your team.Melissa B
