On 4/11/2026, Pomepe and apprentice Aden arrived to instal a new laundry unit which had been found faulty on an earlier free plumbing inspection. On arrival and inspection of the Job, Pomepe explained that the job would require tile cutting as the old unit was installed as the house was being built. He assured us that the finished job would be satisfactory. It Is. They went about the job quietly and quickly, and on completion removed and disposed of the old unit, fittings and packaging. Before leaving Pomepe advised us to wait some time before using the unit to allow sealants to cure. This service was typical of the service we have come to expect of Fallon Solutions over many years. We would also like to commend JASMINE, the lady who showed such patience trying to educate a 90 year old how to submit this review on a mobile phone
