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.

These folks did a great job. Great hard working and friendly crew. The work they did on the pipe was top notch.  Highly recommend!!

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.

Jason was willing to come out to clear our main drain at 1am and did it on the rain quickly and pleasantly. He was on another job when he agreed to come out and kept me informed the entire time if his status and eta. I'd highly recommend using them!

Nothing breaks during the week.  Ever.  Friday night we notice no hot water and water in the liner pan underneath the water heater.  Found an old business card from the previous owner of the house and gave Lee a call.  Lee was out on a Saturday afternoon within a couple of hours of my call.  Verdict: dead water heater.  Within short order Lee and another of his employees had us swapped out and ready to go.  Could not rate higher in my experience.  Hope I don't need anything else but if I do I know who I will call.

These guys are great! I called them out to repair some dubious gas pipe additions the previous owners had installed. Abel was very responsive and even came out late from the other side of Austin to remove the pipe. He explained the whole process and checked to make sure everything else was also up to code. Plus, I had just had a new dishwasher and stove delivered and he installed that too. What's more, these guys came out a second time to uninstall the damaged stove Lowe's had delivered free of charge. I can't recommend Stellar plumbing enough; they are timely, professional, and very personable.

Pex plumbing installed by Greenwave made it through the single digit temperatures during the Texas snowstorm in February. Not a busted pipe anywhere. We had no power for 3 days during the hard freeze and no way to heat the pipes.

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.

I've used Excalibur several times and would definitely recommend them for any plumbing service or renovations. In December, my main water line busted and they were there within the hour.  A few weeks later, I had them install a water softener and couldn't be happier.  While he was at it, he put in a shut off valve so I don't have to run to the street to shut off the water to the house.  Great response time, great work, and great prices - highly recommended.

Jaime and Don did an amazing job! My mother was in a difficult situation and Jaime took the time to go over all of her options to get the repair completed professionally at the best price. My mother is an older lady so he needed to repeat her options frequently, showed great patience and was always so friendly. The job ended up taking longer than expected but they followed through with their original quote and stayed into the evening until the job was completed and everything was back in place. The office staff was professional when I called and I believe my mom even called them a few times confused. They were ALWAYS courteous and communication between office and Jaime seemed to be very efficient. I am so thankful for AAA AUGER and happy to know we have a plumber we can trust.

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.)

These guys were great!  

I just wish my Dad would have called them first - the other plumber he called spent two days digging all around the house and still couldn't find the leak. These guys came in with the right equipment and experience and were able to identify the leak within a couple hours.  

I would highly recommend American Leak Detection to anyone with water leak problems.

2 Stars for showing up at the time they said between 9:30-10am. Polite and then the rudeness starts when I'm told I need a new unite outside right away without even doing any kind of testing. I asked just to check unit and what it may need just to get it to run. He did check the system and still tells me I need a completely new system. Ok how much? Boom estimate was at $9000.00. Or out of three options which were still in the thousands lowest was 4-5 thousand. I declined the offers. Says I can finance it. I'm game lets see what banks they use well not very good ones Ally and goodleap. Ally is ok I guess but Goodleap is terrible they are involved with companies that declared bankruptcy and are being sued. My credit isn't bad just thin cause of recent truck purchase and new line of credit plus hard pulls. So I get declined from both. My wife did hers she has no credit, right away approved for 25k from Goodleap the 9,000 we need would be over $280 a month for 16 years! Someone with no credit should not be given that much. We declined as well of course. After that he asks well how much do you have in savings? What the ever lasting hell? Who asks that from people you don't know? He then talks to a manager who doesn't get why I don't take the loan. Who would if you knew financial stuff like this. When no deal was made he became offended and just took off saying very child like remarks like oh you know everything about credit and finance while guy(Lorenzo) is on the phone and you gonna let your wife suffer the heat? And the best remark when he was leaving I work to hard to live in heat! He left so quick he forgot his tool bag I had to call the company and let them know. He came back for the bag. Be very careful with the financing with them. Found another company and they gave a much lower estimate with in house financing at low low apr with well know bank. Shop around folks.

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.
