Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Called Brad a few days ago asking about replacing our old shower valve temperature control.  Ive called numerous other plumbers from yelp and they all asked me to described what I wanted and was able to give me an estimate.  Others even asked me to text them a picture of what I needed repaired.   And i know estimate is an estimate, it might be a lot more , it might be less.  No way for them to get an accurate price until the see the issue in person.

But Brad seemed like he was in a rush.  Didnt really ask me to describe what I needed done.  He just went straight ahead to his it will be $95 for me to look at it for the first hour and theres 1000 different valves out there so no way for me to give an estimate .  I mean why not ask me to describe what the valve looks like, or send you a picture of it, etc?  It just sounded like that his priority was the $95 first hour.  I understand business is business, but sounded like he wasnt interested from the begininng.

I cannot say enough good things about Richard and Proven Plumbing. We had them install a new toilet, the toilet leaked, Richard found a crack in the toilet, and installed a new one.  The customer service has been excellent, Richard is a great employee and we are very grateful for his diligence.

Thank you Proven plumbing!

I guess there is not much I can add, he has over a 100 reviews and a 5 star rating. Does the job first class, and I think the cost has been fair considering the top quality work.  I have engaged G.J. twice in two different homes in Avery Ranch.  My only fear is that since he does such good work, that one day he will get so popular that we will have to wait too long to get his services.

Curtis & crew were able to come out next day, investigate and install a new toilet flange (same day) onto a sewer inlet that was 6 inches below my concrete sub floor. Tough job as he was able to remove cement around the buried sewer inlet, without destroying my tile, install a offset PVC flange, quick-dry cement it back, and install a new toilet and carry away the old. I wasn't even home, wife was, they shared pictures and she said they were very professional. Would recommend.

Great job at a reasonable price.  They worked hard to get our water heater replaced quickly. Thanks guys!

Bill the owner made us feel like our issue mattered.   Theo was our tech and he was very knowledgeable and explained things very thoroughly.  We definitely locked them is as our plumber guys

Smelled a gas leak under the stove this morning.  Texas Gas came out, told us it was a small problem and red tagged it.  I called around, no one I usually use was available or particularly helpful, though one did give me A&T's #.  They were responsive, came quickly (in a couple of hours), fixed the small leak, and didn't gauge me on price like everybody else does.  My husband who was there during the service said Chris was very courteous.  Recommend.

Great experience working with David, timely replies, prompt scheduling, helpful recommendations on getting the right replacement sink for our kitchen & great install of both that and our new dishwasher & disposal. Would definitely work with again and recommend without hesitation!

What a great plumber AND a genuinely nice guy to boot. I was recovering from the flu only drinking soup when my kitchen drain clogged, effectively shutting it down as well as the ability to clean it. I contacted 3 plumbers first thing the next morning and Abel was the one who could get to me the soonest. In fact he arrived around 8:30 am and was done in about a half hour! This meant I could get on with cooking and cleaning a lot sooner than I expected. He also fixed and tightened a toilet that wasn't flushing properly for no additional charge. Excellent customer service and I will definitely call him for future plumbing issues. Highly recommended.

Braulio is that good! I had him repair / replace my water-main, we started with a quick quote based on text messages and photos. He then qualified the quote with a visit later that day and we setup a time for the repair. He was a little early getting here on the day of service, which was very nice. Braulio walked me through the process and was done before I could make my way home for lunch. I will definitely be calling Standard Plumbing when it's time to replace my water heater.

We first met Jaime about 8 years ago when he was hired by our contractor to do the plumbing for a new addition on our central Austin home.  He did all the work for a new master bath, added a tankless water heater and removed old cast iron plumbing from our 1940s home.  Two years later he came back to reroute the plumbing in our guest bath.  He did great work with both jobs and we never had any issues while we lived there.

In 2019, I referred him to a friend who was experiencing a plumbing emergency at his rental.  My friend was super impressed with Jaime's responsiveness and work and was incredibly thankful to have found an honest, trustworthy plumber to help out during an incredibly stressful time.

And in February 2021, we had a pipe break in our new home after the major freeze.  We were panicked that we wouldn't be able to get it fixed timely since it seemed like everyone else in Austin was dealing with the same issue, but Jaime came to the rescue the next day and fixed the busted pipe.

In the 8 years we have called on Jaime, every single experience was top notch. I don't know what I appreciate the most about him: his professionalism, the prompt communication, the excellent work or how wonderfully nice and pleasant he is. The fact that we have been able to call on him to work on every single home we have owned in Austin really speaks volumes about the quality of his business and his work.  Thank you, Jaime, for always being there for us when we need you. You are the best!!!

Jim is amazing. I've used him on numerous occasions and he has always been fair, courteous and quickly gets the job done. We originally used another plumber to install our tub, but he did a terrible job, so we contacted Jim who was able to fix the previous plumber's work. Then we got a flood in our kitchen and Jim was able to come quickly to turn off the water and then returned later to fix the complicated leak issue. We only trust him for all our plumbing needs. I highly recommend him!!

Great service, honest assessments and fair prices. I've used them twice in the past and you have been great.

Alexander Matej with Plumb Doctors is the best! He is super knowledgeable and extremely hard working. He installed a new toilet and two new faucets and replaced our old, broken shower handles.  He was upfront about the cost and cleaned up everything afterwards. We are very happy with Alex's work and highly recommend Plumb Docors

The Plumb and Order crew showed up on a Sunday to stop a leak coming up from the slab.  They were quick to diagnose and got the leak isolated.

Then we scheduled a day to come out and reroute.  They explained everything as they went, did a good job, and we're professionals.

And you've got to admit, they have a cook name.

Ted recently came out to meet us regarding some tankless water heater concerns that I had. He had performed extra research by calling a Rinnai tech before the visit and provided us with great information. Fortunately, we determined that nothing needed to be done at the time, but I will not hesitate to contact and refer Thunderbird for future plumbing needs!

My kitchen faucet was broken and flooded my kitchen and part of my living room!

I received a quick response to my quote request and was able to schedule and appointment for the next day.

The work was done quickly and the area was left clean.  Highly recommended!

Having been previously screwed over by myriad con artists and incompetents in the Austin area, I now ask these professionals if they're bonded, licensed and insured. I messaged Olvin to see if he could help fix the tile job that had been botched by one such incompetent and this was his response. Looks like I found another one.

I was able to get an estimate for a static test for the drain lines in advance. Scott came the next day with a very short notice (because we had problems reaching the tenants). Scott did the test professionally and sent the results via email immediately. I really appreciate his help and would recommend his service to anyone.

My hot water heater went out and I am not fond of cold showers even after coming in from a day in the Austin Heat. I saw the reviews for Union Jack and decided to give him a call. After taking a look he gave me an honest....YES completely honest opinion. the tank appears to be leaking and there is substantial corrosion here. Most likely you are going to have to replace the entire unit. I could spend 3-4 hours fixing it and it may still not work.

and no- he doesn't even sell water heaters so it wasn't an attempt to up-sell me but actually saving me money!

I asked if he charged a trip fee (Another plumber I called in the past charged me $45 to look at two toilets that he didn't even look at and gave me an estimate of $450- I fixed the toilets myself for $12 in parts at home depot)  but back to the point- Jack said NO- he wasn't going to charge me anything. Time is valuable- he even pulled his tools out so I appreciate the kind gesture. I will DEFINITELY call him for any future work.
