So grateful to Barkly Plumbing Service at Tennant Creek for their expert and speedy service. We pulled in, just passing through, with a blockage to our grey water tank in our motorhome. Ken very kindly set to work straight away and had us all fixed and on our way, even though I’m sure he was busy with other jobs. Thank you so much for your expertise, delivered with friendly service. David and Chris
