I used to shop here but after a few bad experiences I don't anymore. I bought some premium mince once and used it that night to cook spaghetti bolognaise. I realised there was a lot of fat in it so I started scooping it off the top and ended up filling an empty 400g tin of tomatoes. I left it there overnight and the next morning, I had a full can of solid fat. I took it back to show them and was offered some Premium mince as replacement but I told him thats what I got in the first place. He gave me some steak instead which was nice. I've also bought a couple of things there that were off [Pork ribs, chicken wings] and after giving them a few chances over the last few years, I'm over it.

I had a badly leaking shower and I rang 2 other plumbers from WOMOW who said they didn't come to my area and the 2nd one recommended Fixzit at Sumner Park. I rang them and they came later that day. They 'fixzed' it very quickly and also used a rag outside the shower so they didn't dirty my bath mat. They also gave me a $20 discount voucher to use for any Fixzit service [they also do Electrical and Carpentry] within a year. Very pleasant and efficient service. I would use them again.

Approximate cost: $135 without voucher

I had my tiles and grout cleaned recently. The grout was pretty stained in the kitchen and it didn't come up very well. The rest of the grout he cleaned came up nice and white and he also did a bit of an extra area to even things up at no extra charge. On the whole pretty good service but not so good for old stains if you want your grout to be nice and white.

Approximate cost: $quite reasonable

P & T cleaned the carpets at our rental property last week. They did a fantastic job and even cleaned a spare piece of carpet for no extra. Very nice couple who went above and beyond, would highly recommend them for any carpet and furniture steam cleaning needs. They also clean windows.

Approximate cost: $150 for 5 small bedrooms, hall and lounge.

I've been going to Lou for over 2 years now and thought it was about time I told others what they're missing out on. Lou is a lovely person and easy to talk to, but she is also very qualified and experienced in all aspects of nail care and does an excellent job every time. She specialises in nail art and has great designs and jewellery to choose from. She also does spa pedicures, spray tans and waxing. I've been to many other salons previously but I wouldn't go anywhere else now. Highly recommended!

Approximate cost: $varies depending on what you're after

They would have to be the best burger place I have ever been to. The variety is fantastic, the prices are so reasonable and the burgers are to die for. They are almost too big - I ate the whole thing last time and I had to go and lie down afterwards. I couldn't help myself they are just so nice!

Approximate cost: $under $10

I visited this place last year and I gave them 3 chances but they just could not get my colour right. After the last time, my forhead was burnt with bleach and was flaking for many weeks later. The girl I had did not wash out the colour properly so it came out in the shower for over a week after. I was having 2 separate colours in my hair though it was already like that when I went to this salon, I was just getting regrowth done and a colour update. Overall I would say they are very average but perhaps ok for someone who wants something fairly cheap and not too challenging.
