Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Just wanted a quote for a simple repair. Was even able to provide a similar part number. Brad was straight up rude, which even he acknowledged by apologizing. More power to him if he's able to stay busy with his demeanor. But if you have 25+ years of experience, you should be able to estimate something off the top of your head, especially if it's something small between $300-$600. That all being said, I read his reviews and would probably still work him in the future.

Did a great job and fairly priced.  I will definitely use them again!!!  I recommend their service.

After reading all the great reviews here, I was real curious about Gilbert.

He repaired a stove valve for us that was broken off by installers. He did it quickly and at a fair price on the same day we called him.

Gilbert offers real service from his heart and he really enjoys educating his clients so they fully understand his work and their systems. He is kind and brings great energy into your house and I am so glad to find him. I'm sure we will do business with him again.

We expected company later this evening (Labor Day weekend), but  discovered a leak under the kitchen sink. I worried that I would need to cancel our plans, but called Rooter-Man Austin and they were able to send a technician to help us out. Collen was able to put us on his schedule and even came early! He was very friendly, professional and accommodated our needs. He fixed the leak in no time and we were able to keep our plans. I have not used Rooter-Man Austin before, but will definitely use them again in the future. Thanks, Collen!

I had a leaking pipe that dripped and almost flooded the unit below me.   It was almost impossible to get a plumber especially after the bad winter storm.   I'm so grateful to find Capital City Plumbing& Drain.    I'm so grateful for Jenny from Capital City who helped to squeeze me into Billy's extremely busy schedule.  She is calm, professional and over the top helpful.  I'm grateful for Billy the Plumber who came to the rescue at 8PM.  He is honest,  professional, reasonably priced and got the job done right.    I will definitely use this company again.   I highly recommend this awesome team.    I'm a happy happy customer!

They did respond to my phone call right away, even got a tech out within 20 minutes. I told them where the leak was and CT did a quick confirmation and straight up was like $1050. I knew it was WAY over priced. The company that built the system was charging $109 assessment fee and then $22/15min. That company just didn't have availability until the following Monday. Just having a newborn I needed it fixed otherwise I would have done the fix myself. The area was quickly dug up by the two guys, then they split for 30+ minutes, came back and completed, everything done just over an hour minus the time away. Then he gave me a $100 deduction for a total of $950...still over priced but it was extremely quick.

DIY issues!! I'm a fairly competent homeowner but this faucet repair had me tapping in for a pro. I received a quick response and appointment. Chris came out to assist and gave me credit for the day of work I had already put in so the price was much lower than originally estimated.I greatly appreciated the break and the additional tips/tricks to help me in future projects. Thank you Chris.

Dave is fast, efficient and conscientious in his work. He replaced my shower faucet, and when it turned out that the manufacturer's valve was defective, he came back to my house and worked with me to finish the job at no extra charge, even though it wasn't his fault. He had to go get a new part and return the old one, and then came back to my place once again to do it right.

This is somebody you can trust - he not only knows what he is doing, but also stands behind his work. Thanks, Dave!

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.

After another plumber flaked, I reached out to Braulio. He responded almost immediately with a quote and availability the next morning. He showed up on time and did the work (new faucet install) in under an hour. Looks great and works great. Highly recommend!

Jaime Santana did an excellent job with broken water pipes repair at St. Mary Magdalene Episcopal Church in Manor, where I am the pastor. After the winter storm of February 2021, the water pipes of all of our buildings were damaged. Mr. Santana assessed the situation, explained what was required, and finished the repairs in a timely manner. He also ensured that all faucets/toilets/water outlets were properly working, and did the appropriate repairs when needed. I highly recommend Santana Plumbing Company LLC.

I cannot brag enough about how amazing Jim was in a moment of crisis! I called another company and they came out and gave me a ridiculously inflated estimate, while they attempted to re-work the pricing, I got a hold of Jim and he gave me a fair price and came out to fix my hot water heater that day. Jim stayed late to make sure that I would be taken care of and didn't have to take another cold shower! Jim is very knowledgeable, kind and clearly puts a lot of hard work and care into what he does. If you are looking for an honest plumber, you can't go wrong with Republic Pipeworks!!

Stan's contacted me after my first review with apologies and a determination to correct the issue. Unfortunately we were already out of town and had to leave the house with no heat or AC for another 5 days. They did book an appointment immediately after our return on New Year's Eve and I was very grateful for that.

We aren't sure as to what the original issue actually was. A thermostat was replaced, which I'm guessing was the cause, and the first technician was correct in his diagnosis. When I installed it I think I may have configured it incorrectly, thinking we had a heat pump. The second guy should have figured this out quickly and billed me for setting up my thermostat, but unfortunately he didn't seem to know what he was doing, couldn't confirm thermostat settings even with the manual, and was on the phone with someone trying to diagnose an issue with the zone board. He's the one that said we needed the zone board replaced, which was going to be a hefty price tag. After the mix-up and delay, Stan's offered a discount on the board and made sure we were seen immediately after our return.

Today Andrew Page showed up, and he clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He quickly replaced the board, per his work order, but discovered the issue actually came back to an improperly configured thermostat. I don't think he wanted to suggest that I did something wrong or that they did something wrong (I think both were true), and after a few minutes on the phone the work was comped in good faith and fair service. I was extremely appreciative and apologetic for him having to come out on a holiday, and he was incredibly polite and accommodating.

I'm updating my review to 5 stars for their willingness to correct the problem and the fact that they comped the possibly unnecessary work. There was the hiccup in the middle with leaving us hanging waiting on a part over the holiday, which is on them, but they made it right and deserve full credit for that. I think they are very attentive to their reputation and that says a lot about Stan's as a company.

Plumb Doctors are very responsive and the office was able to schedule next day service when I needed to repair the temperature and pressure relief valve on my tankless water heater.

They sent Sam to work on this particular problem and he is very knowledgeable. He even pointed out a few deficiencies in the original installation of the water heater that may have caused the issue in the first place and corrected them during this visit. Additionally, he performed a descaling of the tankless water heater and the heating efficiency has markedly improved -- it takes much less time for water to heat up than before.

The only downside is the price, but it's worth it for quality materials and workmanship that will withstand the test of time and avoid costly re-work (will update this review if anything changes).

Will use Plumb Doctors for future plumbing emergencies and maintenance!

Highly recommend!  I had really low water pressure in my kitchen sink and I had another plumbing company come out to fix it.   They told me it would be the same cost to replace the faucet as it would to blow out the lines to find the blockage. Since that plumber made the water pressure worse trying to assess the issue, I decided to contact someone else.   Plumb and Order answered the phone after hours and was able to give me a general quote over the phone. We got an appt set up and they showed up on time and fixed my problem for half of what the other company had quoted. He also took a look at my water heater and gave me a quote to replace it which was half of what I had been quoted by another company 6 months ago. They were friendly, knowledgeable, responsive, and more reasonably priced than other companies I have dealt with.

I had/have a leaking supply line, first brought to my attention by an OMG! water bill from the City of Austin last week. We use American Home Shield, so are kind of forced to use who they send out. That's not what I prefer, but for potentially large i$$ues, I'm definitely going to get the home warranty folks involved.

AHS sent out a company, who after three separate visits, could not find the leak. They left, and AHS scheduled another company, who are rated pretty poorly here on Yelp, so I was concerned. I contacted Jeff via Yelp message at first, then regular text, then actually via phone. He gave me a ton of information, and pencilled me in for a visit this week, if the AHS assigned plumbers could not come through for us. I really appreciated him spending time with me on a Saturday and Sunday, for a concern that he might have been getting paid to fix, but also might not have.

The second plumber AHS sent out this morning was able to find the leak, (outside, so much cheaper than under the slab), so I won't end up using Jeff after all, but I wanted to tip my hat for the hand holding and info he provided!

We selected Pure Plumbing after a Yelp search and reaching out via email for quotes. Mark was a professional, pleasant and respectful. He showed up and took care of business - we were fortunate in having a quick fix. Highly recommend Pure Plumbing Service for anyone in need.

Olvin and Ramon were very professional, on time, courteous and clean. They repaired a two foot hole in our shower wall- now you cannot tell it was even there.
They gave us a good price and completed the work on the weekend after I called them in a Tuesday!

Scott was great! So helpful, friendly, and fast. Our bathtub hadn't been draining properly for months he fixed it quickly! He cleaned the bathtub, explained future maintenance suggestions, and was extremely polite!

I can't speak about him as a plumber, because Nick suspected from our description we had a blocked sewer line which was not something he handles.  However, he returned my call the day I left him a message to make sure we knew what he suspected and to recommend Johnny Rooter as being reliable and cost efficient.  He let us know what to expect and that he had been comfortable recommending them for years.  

He seemed just as concerned that we receive good care from someone else as we might from him and I really appreciated it.  We called Johnny Rooter, by the way and they were just as timely and reliable and cost efficient for the job as he'd led us to believe.  I really appreciate Nick taking the time to tell us how best to tackle our problem, even when it wasn't something he tackled himself.  That, to me, speaks volumes about a persons integrity.
