I’ve used Fallon solutions a lot. They were the main trades that renovated my house, installed my aircon etc. and while they were expensive, they were always able to be there fast, did good work and were good to deal with. Something has changed. Now, it is very difficult to get anyone in a reasonable time, the trades are rushed and make mistakes… Read more
(plumber missed several glue joints on downpipe) and it takes several reschedules before they actually arrive. The prices are still expensive. I don't see an advantage in using them now over any other trade. I’ve tried them three times since the new ownership and I won’t be using them again.
WOW....Super Slick Snake Oil Salesmen. A $198.00 job turned into $1500.00 in a snap. I was a trusting person, but turned out to be simply "old and gullible", when I found out that the job should only have cost me about $700.00 (if that). Foolishly I neglected to read previous negative "reviews" where it was all splet out ver batim. In the end… Read more
things just did'nt add up - like "I can't send you an invoice until you pay and I (plumber) sign off on the job". When I did finally get the invoice it included "add-ons" I simply didn't request. This is after I have paid. I also asked about what warranty was involved from both the plumber and email to office - still waiting. But all my fault for being trusting and these slick operators had it down pat - "caveat emptor". P.S. [Name Removed]- customer experience manager, don't bother reaching out unless you are prepared to offer an $800.00 refund and an apology.

I called Fallon out for an overdue air con service. They charged $289 for the call out alone, and then told me it would be another $800-900 to service it. I pointed out that was almost as much as it cost me to put it in. Acknowledging that was high, they tried to upsell me on a new unit for around $3500. I refused, and I then called out Spanos… Read more
Electrical, who serviced it and got it working for around the cost of Fallon's call out fee alone. It's been working well for a year since then. I would recommend not dealing with Fallon.

What a great company. Billy Dawson fron Fallons helped us greatly when we called when we couldn't get our smoke alarms to stop blaring. Patient and knowledgeable, and guided us on how to fix our problem. We have used Fallons before and will again. Highly recommend. Show reply
Following an explanation of the work to be done, Aidan left no trace of our 50 year old switchboard when he skillfully and efficiently replaced it. Aided by his apprentice, Nick, he tested the complete power installation and finally stressed the importance of periodic testing of the safety switches. Their courteous manner and professional approach provided us with a pleasing high quality outcome. Show reply
Service was good, but surprised on the high cost to replace a circuit breaker which only took 30 minutes. Charged $372.06 with a $51 dollar discount. Would I use them again, deffently not. Show reply
You should be advised that the company Fallon Solutions charges a fixed price of $230 for the initial check of your appliance for the fault and leaves it only inquired about by the consumers during booking an appointment, no matter how cheap your appliance is. We have a BEKO washing machine purchased at about $600 five years ago but the company… Read more
charged me today $230 for the initial check which took about 20 mins. The technician said initially that the drain pump should be replaced and it cost $250 and when asked about the possibility of any fault with the electronic board, the technician said it’s very “unlikely and rare”. After my further description of the symptoms, he changed his statement and said there might be also a fault of the board and the fault was “very common” according to his experience. The contradictory statements the technician made now and then felt like they were treating you like an idi*t. For this bad experience I do not recommend anyone to use this company’s service.

was very nice and explained the quote very well and answered all my questions. We are very happy with the service that Neeraj & Fallons provided and would recommend them to anyone!

He spent a few hours doing a very thorough professional job and we were very pleased with the results! He obviously takes pride in his work! Thank you, Neeraj - you were amazing and a real credit to Fallons!
Without Prejudice. Female ~75 has been using Fallons for about 4 years for plumbing, electrical etc. Their rip-offs have been ongoing and outrageous. They realise that she has nil/limited knowledge of electrical and plumbing trades. Latest… Read more
financial assault. I have got involved because they drained her account and left her unable to pay her regular bills. Plumber turned up to do a warranty fix on the flush buttons they had fitted in18/8/2023, they were sticking. Fallon brought new Caroma button set which did not fit so cleaned/cleared existing buttons a 15 minute job. Cost $1372.24. The buttons left behind were the Caroma buttons they bought along as back-up. These vultures are unconscionable; they steal from the vulnerable as a mission objective. Do not use them under any circumstance, Fallons will rip you off. We will be contacting Office of Fair Trading about them. There are hundreds of people complaining on this site and probably thousands who have tech. problems making a complaint. Fallon's reviews probably written by them. Proceeding to OFT, ACCC & QBCC. as Fallon communication is a waste of time.
Follow-up · Fallon refused to refund money paid for warranty repair,lots of double talk and excuses. (fobbed off). With Office of Fair Trading and will approach other Govt. Agencies as recommended by Tradesman. She now uses Aged Care via St. Andrews Caloundra. Last call out by them was free. Fallon call out is whatever they can get, from $100 to ??? Fallon… Read more

Electrician Dan was called out to give a quote for fire alarm installation. Dan arrived promptly and was early very polite and respectful. He stated on how compulsory fire alarms are and where they need to be installed. I showed him the four bedrooms and the electrical panel. Unfortunately due to the age of the panel which needs an upgrade. Dan offered payment plans on which is under consideration. Quote will be accepted. Show reply

service that I'd once tolerate is now even more expensive and any resemblance of service is now gone .... honestly, from what I have experienced this place is self-imploding from a new corporate style business model that minimises cost and banks on Fallons previous reputation to hold business ... their "packages" where they want you to sign-up are borderline predatory ...

An extortionate quote of $800+ to replace a leaking tap. OH, but wait, the customer gets a lifetime guarantee on their service; and the customer can become a black or red club member. What a joke.

They came out to quote, provided an extortionate price (not in the ballpark compared to other contractor quotes) with one number, take it or leave it, no breakdown, together with a lot of slick marketing material for other trades. I asked for the quote to be itemised into hardware cost and labour cost, and they refused. They said it's a fixed… Read more
price quote, and they didn't like being questioned. Okay, every quote is fixed price: that's what makes a quote different to an estimate. Normally, a quote is at least itemised into labor and material, the same way an invoice is. Anyway, I don't plan to do business with this company... anybody who refuses to even detail what hardware they plan to install in your property gives off a very dodgy vibe.

Last week I had Andy Cope and Brad over to install a Solar King roof ventilation whirlybird. I wanted mains backup to the solar panel so Fallon’s electrician Cameron Sullivan completed this part of the integration. The thermostat controls the operation of the unit and it operates on hot nights and days when the sun doesn’t shine. I’m really happy with it. As usual the Fallon’s team of tradies were excellent. Punctual, courteous and professional. Show reply
BE VERY WARY OF THIS COMPANY I contacted this company believing they were reputable. I was quoted $1,169 to fix a leaking tap at the front of my home, which shocked me given it required replacing a single part with very easy access. I questioned the technician several times, as there was minimal labour involved. He repeatedly told me the high cost… Read more
was due to the part being very expensive. I was on an important call and reluctantly accepted this explanation. After the job, I had a neighbour with plumbing knowledge check the work. We found the part used costs around $55–$59. The replacement would reasonably take 10–20 minutes, involving loosening two nuts. After making a complaint they have stopped returning calls.

currently causing a problem had the potential to become serious in the future. Edwin identified options for improved climate control and provided a detailed upfront specification for the work.

Overall, the whole process was smooth and professional, and the customer service was great throughout. Pricing was reasonable too, especially considering the appliance was out of warranty.
Good to know they cover a range of household appliances as well. I’ll definitely use them again if needed. Highly recommend.

FS advertise same day attendance. On 18/3/26 I asked for a drier to be repaired, and I accepted FS quote 19/3/26. FS attended 23/3/26. Personable tradesman identified parts needed. On 24/3/26, I accepted quote to order the necessary parts and… Read more
install them (expected 5–7 working days from the order date). Parts apparently arrived 31/3/26 and at 3:46PM 1/4/26 FS texted me to make an appointment to install the parts. When I phoned, earliest date was 9/4/26 because as FS put it "unknowingly our tech will be on annual leave until the 9th as well as our booking today was full". Even acknowledging Easter is in the middle, and there was a week to get the parts, 3+ weeks is not reasonable when FS advertises same day attendance. FS has many tradespeople working for it, so one person's "unknowing annual leave" is no excuse. FS is expensive , which I accepted, but I did not accept its unnecessary delys.
Follow-up · The repair was successful though the technician was 90 min late because he had not been told the correct attendance time. The late attendance guarantee of $100 was eventually paid but only after repeated follow ups and delays.

Today I had an electrician booked between 9:00am–1:00pm for work that needed to be completed before Easter. I’m also a Gallons member, so I expected a certain level of service and reliability. At 11:36am, the booking was cancelled, with the next available time pushed to after Easter, towards the end of the week. I understand that schedules can… Read more
change, however the issue is the complete lack of effort to find an alternative solution that works for the customer.
After taking the time to organise and plan around this appointment, the response I received was simply, “do you want to cancel?” which doesn’t address the problem at all.
Unfortunately, this isn’t the first issue I’ve experienced with Fallons, and based on this experience, I wouldn’t recommend their service.

Aso tried to upsell me on my smoke detectors, all the while refusing to do the job they were called out to do. Paid their call-out out to listen to the electrician try to make more money on a small job. Called a second provider and was quoted half the price and given a full walk through of the issues, what needed fixing and my options based on pricing options. Very poor experience.
Follow-up · Aaron from Fallon called to discuss. I provided feedback on the service. The agreed resolution was a refund on the call out fee which has now been processed by them.
