Best Businesses in Austin, TX

I am so happy to have found West Austin Handyman to tackle our to do list. I appreciated the responsive communication, professionalism, and really quality work for a fair fee. Excited to check off next project.

Great service today from team: Samuel, Clayton, Curtis. Came out and gave timely diagnosis of problem and remediated quickly.  Great work!

Highly recommend Legit Plumbing. I had an unusual problem with my toilet, and Sam had to do a lot of research to come up with a solution that worked. I think his pricing is fair, and they did an excellent job. Happy to call him if I need any more plumbing work done.

Thank you Robert for the hard work replacing my water heater. Did great job and will recommend your business .

I feel like I'm being a bit generous with 3 stars. Noticed a stream of water coming out of our garage on a Sunday. Later that night, we saw water seeping out from the baseboard in our dining room, right behind the refrigerator and figured it was the pipe that feeds the fridge. Called Fast Plumbing on Monday because they were the first company we reached that could come out the same day. They were upfront with the costs, there was a service charge, then they were going to do a hydrostatic test to see where the leak was. It would be $500 and then estimate further repairs, don't fix drywall they have to remove, standard stuff. I looked at the towels collecting water along our baseboards and agreed. Was befuddled when they returned about 15-20 minutes later and said there was no leak. I looked again at the water coming from the baseboard immediately behind the fridge and questioned again how there wasn't a leak. Was told it was either the roof or the a/c plugged.
Took them at their word. There was no damage to the roof (let alone rain) so we got up in the attic and were checking the hot water heater and the ac pans to see if there was water. No visible leak in the insulation, etc. We couldn't figure out where the water was coming from, since we were told there wasn't a leak. Still a stream of water coming out of my garage and outside the foundation was visibly wet from the bottom of the bricks to the ground.
Flash to Thursday and the leak could no longer be contained. There was now a steady stream of water coming out of our baseboard. Every single towel, bathroom rug and blanket was placed against the baseboards and were soaked through by morning and our dining room was half flooded, even with everything on the baseboards.
The wall was now obviously wet. So, we pulled the baseboard behind the fridge and viola! There was a leaking pipe, exactly where we said we thought it was leaking on Monday. Turned off the water to the house at the street and the same guy came back out. By then, we'd started pulling some of the soaked drywall, too. They fixed the leak and did another hydrostatic test. Said the first one didn't show a leak because the pipe was clogged with calcium or they didn't have the water turned off all the way at the street and it was being replaced at the same rate it was leaking, which would seem like it was holding pressure. What do I know. Maybe it's true, maybe it's an excuse.
Now, we're staring down the face of a homeowners claim with flood cuts on all three walls in our dining room, the wall in the kitchen where the fridge is, and possible rebuild of one of our bottom cabinets. Would it have been necessary if they'd fixed the leak on Monday? Maybe so. It looks like it was a pinhole leak for a while before it got to this point. Would it have been as extensive as it will be now that we blindly let water leak through our house for 4 days based on their testing? No, no it wouldn't. I take some of the blame, I guess, for being trusting their evaluation when it seemed wrong at the time.
At least they didn't figure in another trip charge and gave us a $100 discount off the 2nd repair bill.
I do not think, based on my experience with them, that I would use Fast Plumbing again.

We recently used Eligio to fix a burst water heater pipe - and we found his service to be wonderful. We had returned from vacation to find flooding due to the burst pipe and called him. Even though he was on a job, and couldn't make it in immediately, he walked us through over the phone to shut the water off and also sent one of his assistants to check. He then came promptly the next morning to replace the pipe. A week later, when he replaced our water heater, and when we had issues with not getting hot water in the kitchen, he came back again to check and fix. In all our encounters with him, we found him to be not only responsive (he answers the phone every time you call!), professional, reasonable with price, but, also very empathetic and caring about our unfortunate situation. We recommend him highly.

I had problems with my water heater. I called a few competitors and was very disappointed. When I looked at the reviews that Greenwave had on yelp, I was cautiously optimistic. Well, in scheduled a time for these guys to come out, they made it right on time, they were honest and courteous.
I put of the repair for three months, when I finally did it the laid out all the options, the reasoning why they recommended the different options and then left it up to me to make a decision without the sales pressure. I went with the most affordable option and hoped that this would fix the problem, it did.
Mike and his team are true professionals. Next plumbing job that is needed in either one of my houses, Greenwave is the only call I will make.

Glenn was awesome!!!  We had a shower that wouldn't turn off on a property that we have in Spicewood and he worked me in at the last minute to help.  I didn't even have to be there and since it is a one hour drive for me, I was so relieved.  He ended up having to cap it off because the parts to fix it were not common.  I was thinking I would be in for a long repair process and have to search for the parts.  When Glenn called to keep me posted on the job, he had already called to find the parts!  They were expensive so he checked with me about options and we decided that was our best for the price so he ordered them for me and told me to pay when we got it fixed.  THEN, the same week, our air conditioner pan overflowed sending water down through a ceiling and walls onto a bedroom floor.  It was so maddening!!  Again, Glenn came right out and stopped the leaks until I could get the AC guys out there.  I can't compare his prices because I didn't get any estimates...but it was definitely worth what I paid considering the water would have cost so much more damage if it hadn't been stopped AND Glenn makes sure he does a thorough job and you can trust him to do it right.  I don't know how to put a price on trust...it's almost priceless but that is what you have with Glenn.

Decker Plumbing was extremely professional, courteous and timely from the first contact over the phone to the last part of the service call.  Jeff was extremely thorough and thoughtful to the point it felt like he was taking care of his own house.  We were told by another plumber that our water heater would need to be replaced.  Jeff fixed the problem and took the time to explain why the water heater stopped working.  I would highly recommend Decker Plumbing and would use them again for any plumbing-related need.

Thank you Decker Plumbing!! Such a stress related issue taken care of smoothly.

After finding so many high rated reviews of these people on Angie's list, I called to get an estimate done for some work. They scheduled us for Monday between 12 and 3, they have 2 phone numbers to reach us and communicate with us. It's now almost 5, no phone call, no plumber.

I would appreciate it if they would just say we don't want your business. Sitting around wasting over half a day waiting for someone to not show up has cost us time spent not at work, literally this company has cost us money without even doing anything. Not even a phone call.

Daniel was super knowledgeable and very obviously knew what he was doing. He resolved the issue with our corroded water lines and gave us good information to use going forward. Will definitely be using this plumber again!!

Great experience with Greg & Jeff (I think that's their names). I got a same day appointment and they showed up right on time. My problem took about 30 seconds to resolve. They didn't try to up sell me to make their trip more profitable. I highly recommend them these nice, professional, and punctual plumbers.

I hired ALD for $575 to find a leak in my yard that was leaking 2 gallons an hour. They detected it under my driveway and so I had a company come in and give me a $ignificant driveway tear up quote. Thankfully I couldn't get the driveway work scheduled until next month and this past weekend the ACTUAL location broke 30 feet away from the blue mark they made in my driveway. It was NOT UNDER MY DRIVEWAY. I now have no leak and the problem is solved after a $700 emergency Saturday night repair. I have called ALD and informed them that I was unhappy with what has transpired.  On the call I asked to speak to the owner and I told them I was going to report my experience here. The receptionist was not concerned but did tell me someone would call me. I will report back if I am contacted.

This company is GARBAGE lead by a GARBAGE human being.  I wish there were a way to give negative stars.   This is a very long story, but Yelp won't let me post-it in its entirety.   So, short version. They LIED to us, GASLIT us and WILLINGLY AND KNOWINGLY left us without hot water FOR 6 (S I X) months.  I am a disabled Veteran and they found every way possible to to screw us over for 6 months.  Avoid this company LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!  At the end of it all they left me with appliance PTSD, exacerbated back problems, and a burning ulcer.   I spent 4 months being screwed around by them, having them attempt to make us pay  for warranty work that they didn't do, missed a total of 2 weeks of work (over the course of the 6 months) waiting for techs that only called to say that they wouldn't be there 4 times out of that 2 weeks. I'm not perfect, but I DID hold it together & only went off on them 1 time in the first 4 months and only 2 times.  more in the last 2 months.  They sent out techs who ACTUALLY SAID Yeah, they only send us to the difficult customers.  That's a direct quote.  Apparently, I was difficult because I wanted them to do their job & get our hot water back?!?  We spent 6 months schlepping pot after pot of lukewarm water from the kitchen to the bathroom just to take a little wipedown bath.  My child had to go to school feeling nasty more often than not because friends and family can only allow us to bathe at their place so many times.  They made us pay for an electrician to prove that the problem wasn't electrical, only to whine about the fact that it wasn't electrical and I had to miss YET ANOTHER day of work so they could send their own electrician (because they didn't believe the the PHYSICAL PROOF I SENT THEM) Who agreed wholeheartedly with the electrician THEY MADE.ME PAY FOR AND REFUSED TO REIMBURSE FOR).  This jerk is CHEAP!!!  His ridiculous commercials make me physically ill.

Answering service said they didn't service area they show they have an office. Had to call and follow up myself to try to schedule service.

After successfully ci firming they did service my area (and allegedly have an office less than a mile from my house), they also confirmed they could perform the work I was requesting and would have a free service call to evaluate.  They required a 4 hour service call window, so I did a a 2pm-6pm window. After taking off a half-day to accommodate, I finally got a call at 6:30pm. The plumber simply told me they did not offer the service I needed (installation of a studor vent because my older house did not have a p-trap or vent for the washing machine drain). He told me at that time that they do not offer the service and he could quote the price to remove the faulting running trap and install a new one. I informed him I was not certain I even had a running trap, to which he said I probably did. I asked that he still come out to assess the situation just so verify. He fumbled around and said he would have to call his supervisor. He called back 5 minutes later and said it would be $12,850 to replace the running trap (that he didn't even know if I had). I asked that he still come out to look at it, and he said it would be $499 just to run a camera. No thanks, obviously a company that doesn't care about customer or the work.

Got a local small business to come out that next day, ran a camera for $75 to confirm I DID NOT even have a running trap, and they installed a new washing machine box, p-trap, and studor vent for less than $500.

Obviously a company that has grown too big to provide good service - have a 3rd party answering service that doesn't even know their service area, and plumbers that will do anything they can to avoid adhering to the service calls when their day is running long.
