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.

I had to get original cast iron plumbing (1950s) removed and replaced under a slab foundation. This involved excavating, removing cast iron, installing PVC, and refilling. Accurate Leak & Line provided the most competitive quote and completed the job ahead of schedule. They were very efficient and communicated status throughout the job. They always left me with a high level of confidence. I highly recommend them.

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 hunter.. any update..?  You and Robert took the $4600 and did not complete the tasks.

Highly recommend their service. Came out at about 5pm and stayed past 9pm to fix a water leak. Very friendly and respectful. Mycol and Elijah did a great job with our issue and had great customer service the entire time. Very honest and dependable. Would recommend to anyone needing plumbing services.

I emailed Eligio concerning a certain leak in our home, and he quickly got back to me saying that it sounded like an easy fix and would be less expensive to take care of it on my own. He went on to offer personal assistance over the phone. I haven't even done business with his company and received this level of customer service. So many other professionals in the Austin area would probably have just gone ahead and scheduled an appointment to make money. How refreshing. I'm impressed.

So........I had what I would call a hot water heater emergency and I called Greenwave and Eddie walked me through everything to try to remedy situation till a driver could come out. He even had me send pictures and was very patient even though I was freaking out. Even when the technician Mike came out, he was very pleasant and knowledgeable about what was going on. I felt more comfortable with this company, than I did with the company that the warranty people sent out. I would definitely recommend this company.

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 is professional, knowledgeable, and efficient.  This is why I will use them again and again.  Our dishwasher needed to be replaced right away and they were able to schedule and complete the job with no hassle or scheduling confusion.  I would highly recommend Decker Plumbing to anyone and everyone.  Great job!

I called 5 different plumbers in Liberty Hill and Leander and either received no call backs or they said they had all the work they could eat.

When I called Excalibur, they fit me into their schedule. They wanted my business.

The tech came out, fixed the busted pipe and was done in less than an hour.

Fantastic all around experience. Thanks!

Jason from AAA Auger came to our house today , and took the time to properly fix our water heater issue -

Dwayne and JustUs is great. Had an old kitchen faucet that needed replaced and he came the day after I called him to replace and install it. He quoted me a flat rate over the phone which was nice, and even though the faucet was completely rusted in and took a lot more effort to take out than what is probably typical, he still only charged me the flat rate he quoted me. I ended up having him install a new water softer system the same week.  Price he charged for the softener and installation was very affordable for the quality of system put in and he even did it on a Saturday so I wouldn't have to miss any work. I won't hesitate to recommend JustUs to friends, family, and coworkers in the future and plan on using them for all of my plumbing needs from here on out.

Frantic with a $9K city water bill I called these folks.  They were late.  Finally, I saw their truck and went outside to investigate.  They were working on our neighbor's water system!  That should have been my first clue!

They did find a break in the irrigation.  After 2 tries (jackhammer needed), Domingo did fix it ($1,560.00).   Still leaking, I asked them to come back.  Over the course of trying to resolve this problem I learned it takes TWO people to operate the sonar etc.  They sent ONE person and after poking around for an hour or so....he said, the leaking pipes are too deep for me to determine where the leak is.....  So, THE ORIGINAL LEAK SPECIALiSTS left me with a continuing leak of 3-4 gallons per HOUR and charged $575 for the service,  Nice guys..... Just not sure they have the equipment or know how to solve leak problems.  Irrigation and pool are off.  Still leaking.  Roto Rooter uses cameras.....I'm hoping they are on top of it!

Jason came out to give an estimate to repair our furnace.  He gave a band-aid option vs replacement.  We informed him we would be getting one more quote but would let him know.  Next company came out and immediately we realized that Jason had left the entire furnace pulled apart, had cut the wires in our circuit board, had cut wires to the thermostat control and cut the wires to our safety switch.  Not only could the furnace not be used but neither could the AC until either we paid to re-wire the components or had to replace the entire unit.  We called and left messages for his supervisor Jacob, but he never called us back.  Be very careful if you call this company out.  Do NOT leave them unattended around your equipment or make sure to take before pictures and inspect the area carefully before you leave them drive away.

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.
