Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Brad was awesome. He came over to the house on short notice and did some plumbing work for us. He was very professional and personable. He was great with social distancing and followed the guidelines for protecting us and himself while working in our home.

Very responsive and knowledgeable.
Good work at a fair price.
I would recommend them to my neighbors.

Gilbert was awesome.  I had searched through Yelp and located his company.  I wanted to remove a sink and cut off the pipes in the wall [got it to that point, but needed a pro to finish].  Called him, answered quickly and was out same day.  Knocked out what would have taken me many hours, in a short period.  Very fair pricing, extremely nice man.  Thanks Gilbert, you have my business now.

Ridiculous prices!! I got Rooter Man to come round as I had a water leak out the front of the house. The guy on the phone said someone would be round as quickly as possible, which is awesome. He failed to mention that for them just to show up at my house was $80. The guy literally did NOTHING, he just looked at the pathetic hole I'd already tried digging myself, said what it MIGHT be and pulled some number out around $1200-1300 as a quote. The problem was a cracked valve on the pipe. When I said no to the price he quoted, he then informed me I owed him $80. When I say nothing was done, literally nothing, I find it ludicrous to charge $80!

I went with another company who came out just as quick, looked into the problem for free and then quoted me a price one quarter of the price!

Gabriel called me within 10 seconds of filling out my service request at Home Advisors. He asked detailed questions about my plumbing issue and gave me a ballpark price. He then called about an hour before arriving. When he arrived he wore shoe coverings, fixed all of the sink issues I had and explained the process along the way. He was very professional and competent. His price was exactly as he stated and did not try to upsell. I had questions about other plumbing issues and he helped me find answers. I highly recommend Capital City Plumbing & Drain and will use Gabriel Nieves again and recommend him.

i have to say that this particular plumbing company is amazing!!! they're super reliable, always friendly and these are the best prices i could find. my favorite part of the service is the friendly black lab that joins the plumber!

I reached out to Pierre because I work at a local manufacturing company and were searching for partners to help with plumbing installs. Pierre was the most professional one to show up with an amazing attitude and ability to get the job done. He has become my go - to plumber for my own home needs and would highly recommend him and his team to anyone searching for fast, reliable, and expert plumbing services.

One of the few plumbers that will help you with your problem. Not just fix it temporarily to come back and charge you again. Dave fixed every issue I called him for, and explained how to prevent it in the future. Worth every penny.

From friendly, accommodating scheduling to timely and effective repair, Abel was great! A small leak turned into Niagara Falls under my kitchen sink. I'm sure Abel was busy given the holiday weekend and an ice storm on the way. He took his time to make sure my problem was taken care of and was friendly and professional.

6-Stars...7-Stars... Let me tell you, I almost DONT want to write a review because the secret will be out!  Braulio with Standard Plumbing is simply OUTSTANDING.

Great communication.  Great information.  Great education.  He was simply a pleasure to work with.  He gave me options, told me his recommendation and did GREAT WORK.  I now have my go to plumber!

He responds via the Yelp system too.  You can send him pictures and you can have an exchange of information so there will be no surprises.  What he quoted me was what he charged.

He wont take every job...some jobs are just too small and should be left up to the homeowner to just replace the small stuff.  However, for the stuff that matters, needs permits, corrections or major installations, Braulio is your man.

Seriously...I now have Braulio and Standard Plumbing as a contact on my phone because there is no need to call anyone else!

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!!!

We needed a new water heater (our old one was ancient and on its last legs). Jim was super responsive (same-day), and came out and gave us a very reasonable quote the following day. Our job was certainly not run of the mill, as the previous owners of our home definitely made shortcuts versus keeping things up to code. Despite the project taking much longer than he anticipated, the cost did not change. We feel super confident that the work Jim did will last for years to come. Also, he is a very friendly and affable guy - full of fun facts and interesting stories! He runs his business with honesty and integrity. Thanks again Jim!

Recently returned from a trip to find our A/C not working so I called Stan's Heating & A/C who had been servicing the unit as part of their Gold Service Club plan for several years (more on that in a moment). On a recommendation I also called Daniel Silva, Silva A/C & Heating, and his quote for exactly the same coil replacement was considerably better. Perhaps the difference was that Stan's representative indicated that it would take 2 men 4 hours but Daniel completed the work alone in about 2 hours. Makes me wonder if either Stan is padding the hours or his folks need more training. Daniel was prompt, efficient and I would highly recommend him. Back to Stan's Gold Service Club. One of the advantages they advertise is: Additional benefits include a 15% discount on heating and cooling repairs. After speaking with Stan's representative I came to understand how little I know about maintaining your A/C unit. Apparently if your A/C stops working because the coil has a leak, what they do to fix it is not considered a repair. No repair equals no discount. Sure glad I joined that club.

We had a job that involved a radiant floor heating system that most plumbers wouldn't touch (and the ones that had, messed it up) but the Plumb Doctors were able to trouble-shoot and get to the bottom of an issue that had been plaguing us for months! Thank you again!!

We had a leak issue and had to shut off the water. They had a cancellation and were able to respond the same day. Kirk was very easy to work with, flexible, knowledgable and professional. He replaced the under-sink valves in the kitchen and also took care of a drain issue and toilet issue while he was there. Their prices are very reasonable. Overall a great experience.

Once Jeff caught wind of this review, he apologized and gave me 10% back to help make it right.  He'd been out of town during this debacle and wasn't aware of my issues, but was genuinely concerned.  He closed the loop on how they don't usually take on jobs as big as mine and offered a referral with another trusted guy.  I'd already had the leak fixed and thankfully, the Thunderbird warranty wasn't voided when I had the other plumber come out.

I had a slab leak and rather than doing an exploratory dig, another plumbing service recommended Mark for a sound test. He came out, felt around, and said No need for the test, you have a hot water leak right here.

So he saved me some money there, since the test is like $300. I told him where I thought the pipes were and by cutting through drywall and backtracking, he was able to isolate the leak and cap it so it affected only a single bathroom.

He recommended re-piping around the leak rather than digging up my foundation to fix the pipe itself. I agreed. He also suggested using a PEX product for hot water lines, since it was cheaper, but I went with copper instead.

The re-piping took a couple of hours but was uneventful. He also re-piped a cold water line to my refrigerator that had leaked, capped an indoor propane line, and (ultimately) replaced a utility sink that had been leaking. It's been about 2 weeks since and I haven't had to call him back.

He showed up when he said he would and his work has been very good. I'd say his pricing is just above average. He's not the cheapest I've hired but he's not the most expensive either.

They showed up on time. Great communication. A couple mistakes that were promptly corrected. Olvin was very nice and followed through with everything he said. I'd recommend again. Thank you.

We discovered a leak after coming back from vacation. I contacted Scott from Spot-On Plumbing after the water mitigation company found the source and he came the same day, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it promptly. He was knowledgable, upfront, and was able to identify other major and minor issues that were the cause of the leak. I'd highly recommend Scott to anyone who needs repairs done efficiently!

Nick ROCKS! He's definitely the most trustworthy plumber I've ever had to deal with. He gets the job done well and quickly and his fees are more than fair. Plus, he's British, so just being around him makes you smarter. :)

UPDATE: He's also a pro at installing plumbed-in espresso machines!
