Enquiry forms and files
Information entered into our contact and job-enquiry forms is used to respond to your request. The job-enquiry form can also let you select photos or PDF documents.

When information may be shared
We do not sell or lease your personal information. We may share relevant information with trusted service providers who help us operate the business, with a water authority when a compliance report must be submitted, or where disclosure is required or permitted by law. We only share information that is reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
Security and retention
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. We retain information only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected, to maintain appropriate service records, or to meet legal and business obligations.
