I had Roof Plumbers come to fix roof leaks. The leaks were not fixed. I rang again to have roof leak fixed and asked for a quote in writing. They turned up with no appointment and no quote, expecting to just ‘have another go’ and charge whatever.
On that first roof visit time he gave me his personal plumbing card, and asked I contact him via that i.e. avoid Grey Army knowing.
They came several times. Roof leaks are not fixed.

Grey Army Plumber: I had just moved in and needed bathroom, shower and kitchen taps very slight leak at tap base to...

Over the past five years,I have used the Grey Army (Fallace Brothers) for a wide variety of maintenance and construction tasks. In that time, any problem that might have emerged, was quickly resolved by the use of advanced trade skills and a "can do" attitude. Attention to detail and quality of finish have been major features of all of the work that has been done. Both Robert and Michael take pride in delivering to a standard that exceeds the client's expectations. I would not consider using anyone else.

Having used the Grey Army numerous times over the last 15 years, I contacted them over 5 weeks ago for a quotation to replace an existing fence and gate. The tradesmen came promptly and measured up. I hadn't received the quote a week later, so I followed up the Grey Army, who go him to call me and he promised me that I would have it asap. Guess what, I'm still waiting! I will be taking my money and business elsewhere.

Never used the Grey Army before but had a massive gas plumbing job that required an expert and I have to say I got one In Matthew ( Melbourne gas). Every aspect was addressed from replacing and removal of old systems /detachment from roof of old solar unit inputting new instant hot water system down to and including installation and replacement of old and new pipe network net work underhouse to gas meter. Replacing old galvanized with copper. Matthew and apprentice were Honest and polite whilst keeping me in the picture they were extremely hard working and never stopped till the job was done. rare hard to find.

Shaun Smith - very punctual, great communication. Nil issues during the painting and completed the work with high craftsmanship. Shaun was polite and able to offer good advise for different rooms.
Would use and recommend Shaun again!

Early this year we contacted Grey Army Bendigo to have a retaining wall built at the front of our new house.

Grey Army sent a guy call Brendan, who claimed to be a bricklayer. The workmanship was atrocious, the walls are not close to being even or level as we requested. We tried tirelessly to try and get things fixed by the bricklayer, but are left with workmanship that is uneven, not level, disgusting and an eyesore. We are now lodging an application to take the bricklayer to VCAT to try to get some money back to help fix his mess.

Had a new roof put on the house. Got a painter from the grey army to do the eaves and sides of the roof. What a messy painter. Got paint allover the walls. Paint coming off in places. Missed sections. Did not finish other areas. Total shambles. Now need to get all the house painted again to fix this clowns errors. 2000 waste of money and time.

Got a quote for a railing gave the go ahead and was told it would take a week or two for the materials. After a month was contacted saying that he couldn’t do the job. Now I have wasted 1 month on waiting waiting & waiting For nothing. Don’t waste your time. Go to private companies as they will want the job & guarantee to do it.

I needed a roof plumbing task completed quickly, as I had been let down by 2 other tradies.
I raised an online enquiry, was called 15 minutes later, to set a time to come and quote. The plumber came out the following day, sent out the quote that night, and completed the job 2 days later.
At each stage the contact was professional and courteous. And the price was spot on.

Electrician was extremely rude and I doubt his cognitive state, he should retire.
Plumber was dodgy, had an absolutely ridiculous quote.
2/2 so called professional tradesmen are not good examples for this company.
Never again will I use this service.

I called this morning to request some carpentry work to be undertaken, the girl who took the call advised there were two carpenters (brothers) who worked in my area and she would allocate the job to them. I received a call back from that same girl later in the afternoon advising me they were unable to assist with my job! clearly my job was not wanted so I wasted my time assuming they would take the job! perhaps is was just way too small but I wasn't even given a 'theyre very busy at the moment'! the message was loud and clear they just didn't want the job!

Requested a carpenter to repair and replace a number of veranda posts. Was send a plumber and a very experienced handyman who claimed he can do the work. When he came to do the job he was inadequately prepared, The completed work was very amateurish and of poor quality in finish and appearance, I was charged for a complete length of post but only 500 mm length was used...I had to ask for the remainder of the materials as he was going to take it for himself. Told him I wasn't interested in him doing further work for me because of the standard of...

I wanted a simple rose removal, got thick stumps left, that were not removed, and I paid to be removed, but were not and now not a good service.. pay

Thanks to Shaun Smith for his plaster and paint job. Answered all questions. Very pleasant and great job. Would definitely recommend and happy to get back for other jobs in the future.

Robert, Carpenter, has provided outstanding and exceptional professional service, solving complex challenges with ease and enthusiasm. I can recommend Robert with total confidence that his work will be of the highest standard.

Thanks to Shaun ,I had my house painted quickly ,he did an outstanding job and provide fantastic feed back and ideas . I will definitely call you again Shaun , as I need more painting to be done .
I have posted more jobs that I require and will contact Grey Army again for sure.

Peter James Murphy did an outstanding job. It turned out to be more difficult than he expected but he stuck to the original quote and we were very happy. Also gave advice on something else that needed attention.
