Best Businesses in Austin, TX

I have contacted West Austin Handyman twice now for a couple of pool issues related to damage that resulted from the freeze that happened a while ago. He responded quickly and did not waste any time to order the part I needed and have it installed.

The second time I was not in town, but he was willing and able to go to the house and diagnose the issue and again ordered and installed the part quickly.

I am looking to use him as my go to handyman for my rental properties due to his great communication and efficiency. I recommend others use him too.

Because of Josh and Clay at Accurate Leak and Line, I was able to close on the sale of my house on time!!!!!  Three days before closing, they diagnosed two leaks in my drain lines, allowed me the option of how I wanted it addressed (slab crack or dig under), repaired and replaced concrete in 2 days!!!  High quality work, very professional and thorough.  Not my typical experience with plumbing contractors.  Best in the business if you ask me.

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.

Loved working with South by Plumbing! He was very efficient in getting to us and explained everything that was going on and what he was doing to fix it. I appreciated that since a lot of times people just say this is what it's going to cost and don't explain anything. If you're looking for a reputable plumber in Austin, TX definitely reach out to these guys!!

I cant speak on their services, but they sure are honest and helpful on the phone. Great customer service experience and very honest

I contacted Eligio on a Saturday after discovering a water leak downstream of the city meter.  He arranged to meet me on Monday afternoon to evaluate the situation and assess another repair inside the home that was needed.  The following day, he and a helper were out there right on time.  I went by the house and Eligio showed me the source of the leak and what he was changing/doing differently to ensure it did not happen again; very professional approach and excellent communicator.  The second repair was inside and required cutting away sheet rock to gain access.  I greatly appreciated that they only removed the minimum amount required to complete the project and were very protective of the new wood floors we installed.  They were very efficient with their time and did a quality job.  I will definitely call Stellar Plumbing again!

Mike is great! I had a few leaky faucets in a new house that I moved into and he was able to come out the same day to help fix them at an affordable price point.

I really like Webster Plumbing. They helped us when our light went on for our grinder pump.
Not only did the test our pump to determine it was fine, but they found a bracket broke off and caused it to fall on its side. To add to our issues the sewer pipe going out was clogged. They corrected everything.
I would highly recommend them. Hard working and fair prices.

Great work done by Mac. He repaired a really bad gas leak for me. He was very respectful of my time. He made me feel safe and comfortable knowing the gas leak was taken care of properly

We needed a new hot water heater. Service was fast, efficient and good rate. I would recommend Excalibur Plumbing to all my family and friends!

Don't use these people. They will try to scam you out of all the money they can. Lie to you about receiving payments. Blame you for anything they can, and threaten to put a lean on your house. They are overpriced and horrible people. Avoid at all costs.

Came home to water puddled up in my front yard. Turned out being a pressure valve which required turning off my house water until fixed. I called around and got ahold of Nichole and JustUs Plumbing about 3pm on a week day. She was really friendly and responsive. Within an hour Eric showed up smiling, friendly, and professional. He was extremely knowledgeable, answered all of my questions, made some recommendations, and stayed late making sure he fixed the issue. I could not have asked for a better plumbing experience. (Not something I thought I ever be saying.)

So, I consider this a work in progress.
I've been getting intermittently high water bills, so I called my go to plumber (Anchor Plumbing in San Antonio) for help. Their plumber tried some tried and true methods, and finally told me to contact ALD, as they would most likely find the leak much faster than he could.
When ALD showed up, they did their various tests, and told me my system isn't leaking. Their pressure tests showed no leaks in my irrigation system or inside my house. So they kept troubleshooting, and eventually discovered that the expansion tank for my water heater was intermittently indicating water was being pulled in then pushed out about .4 gallons per hour, repeating several times every five minutes. But, the SAWS meters only register water coming into the house, so when the expansion tank pushed the water out, the action didn't register--I was charged for water that I didn't use!
I'm having the expansion tank removed tomorrow, and will hopefully remove the Work in progress notice next month.
I was impressed. They spent much more than the hour I was told was included in the base price, and after determining my system wasn't leaking, they stayed until they found what appears to be a very logical solution to my problem. Consider me a fan!

I cannot say enough positive things about the business Elmer conducts. I am not paid nor did I receive any discount or privileges for this review. While I do not know everything about HVAC I do work in the electrical and telecommunications industries. I can say without a doubt that the technical evaluation of my (young) 7 year old system was spot on. Homeowners should understand that big home builders cut costs where inspections lack. With that said it is possible that a new system is inadequate for the space it provides for. Joseph Munera did make recommendations outside of our initial requests however it was an honest evaluation with severity identified. We have taken them up on ALL repairs and upgrades they recommended as we also understand the harsh heat of summer can also reduce the lifespan of units. The manners this technician had were stellar and rarely seen in the work force today. I thank Elmer and his company for providing such a respectable technician and a lasting experience. As far as my family and I are concerned; there is no better AC and heating company in the San Antonio Area. Thank you

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.
