Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Kevin was very responsive to my text messages. Upon his arrival, he was very thorough conducting testing to determine the source of my leak/ break. He was honest as well. He heard my insurance company indicate they would pay a higher price, but he didn't increase his price.

Reliable, reasonably priced and solid workmanship. Has done multiple jobs from simple faucet install to complex repair (reconnected bath drain in the slab requiring jack hammering to make a difficult reconnect to fix the leak. Also replaced water heater and replaced copper pipe after a freeze. Highly recommende!

Great service!  Raul was so friendly and responsive.  I had a need water pressure meter installed.  He made sure I was getting strong pressure in all of my faucets and shower heads.

Ross Plumbing is 1000% committed and determined to fix your problem. They are very responsive and always show up on time. They are high-quality plumbers who are amazing people.
Ross Plumbing was recommended to me by the folks at Glass Well and I'm glad they did. Cody and Clint have taken care of several fairly routine plumbing issues for me and have been prompt, courteous, and reasonable.
More recently I've had a water heater problem. They replaced it but there were still issues. Over a couple of weeks they came out several times (no charge) and tired different solutions. When I mentioned I had a high flow rate on my water softener but no one could find a leak, even the plumbers with fancy technology, Clint ruled out other issues and finally discovered that yes, there was a slab leak from the water heater. We had all been stumped for months, but using reason and the process of elimination, plus his plumbing knowledge, Clint nailed it. Although it will be costly to fix this, at least now I know what the problem is and we can work around it till it's fixed. And if this ends up being a job beyond the scope of what Cody Ross Plumbing does, I will use Leroy Ross (Cody's father), who does construction plumbing.
In summary, they're the best around on all fronts. I cannot rate them high enough for what they've done.

Would definitely recommend the services of Ruben. He answered all my questions over the phone first and even asked if I could take a picture of the issue, then quoted me over the phone. I knew what to expect and what I was going to pay before he even came out. He worked with my work schedule and met me at my apartment exactly when he said he would, even called/text to confirm.

Very nice gentleman. He retrieved my grandmother's necklace that was gifted to me 19 years ago. I don't know what I would do without him. He gave me some plumbing tips and even cleaned up the area he worked on.

Looking for a family plumbing business? Call Ruben!!

Very impressed at the knowledge and corrections made to my irrigation system. Thank you so much

Great communication, on-time service, beyond satisfactory work, fair pricing, left zero mess behind, very efficient and will reach out for any other handyman needs.

I purchased multiple toto drake 2 commodes as a plumbing company owner was given a lesser toilet than i payed for . It was a big problem with my homeowner who noticed after, my guys left they are fraudulent in my opinion will never ever spend any money at josco they are just a rip off company who won't make things right so i can prove everything i said !!

Danny is a rad human with some serious handiman superpowers!. I kept calling him Sherlock Holmes, because I hired him to figure out what was wrong with my water system.

It was one mystery after another, and he solved them gracefully. Excellent problem solving and execution of solutions!

Danny is so committed to being a badass ninja handiman and getting the job done right, that he seriously sucked the water out of a sink tube and spit it out, to pull out the debris blockage:

I mean - what??? Who does that? That is some serious commitment to a job well done! And some serious old school wisdom and know-how - to trouble shoot such a quirky and mysterious circumstance.

Add to that the fact that Danny is pretty much a human leprochaun / magical elf, and his daughters are like walking faeries , you've got yourself a rad and helpful human who can help you with nearly everything!

Thanks Danny!

It should be no stars but you can't go lower than1. We had an issue that required a plumber we placed a call on friday evening for saturday at 11 am but the called that they should be there around 830 am I informed them that it was supposed to be at 11, well since the it's been a runaround after another it's now Sunday  at 1040am and still getting a runaround from Gregory and hung up by if I remember correctly her name was Susan.  I guess the have taken the saying that your #2 is their #1. Because I tasted some crap with them, i highly suggest looking other companies.

I have used San Marcos plumbing for several years and have never been over-charged or misled about repairs.  They have installed a water softener and hot water heater for me and made an emergency repair to a broken supply line. They have never talked down to me because I am a woman (my pet peeve, since I am a competent mechanic) or been anything but respectful and friendly. The one time there was a misunderstanding regarding a charge, Victoria made it right. Remember, folks, that being polite and giving people the benefit of the doubt brings the best results.

The owner of this business is giving himself five star reviews, competitors one star reviews, and threatening lawsuits when he receives reviews he does not like. He's also attempting to circumvent Yelp's block feature by sending me argumentative compliments because I told him I would not be a party to a conversation online with someone threatening frivolous lawsuits. He seems to be a paranoid delusional, or, at the very least, has the constitution and maturity of a seven year-old-boy given his reaction (threatening me with a lawsuit) over a 3-star review. My opinion, of course, but he may be dangerous to others.

All this because I gave him a 3-star review with several concerns about the quality of their customer service and the level of professionalism (or lack of professionalism) one must have to leave one star reviews on all of his competitors pages (search Yelp for A&V Plumbing Bell Plumbing Rubio Septic, etc. Search Google for others.

I've used these guys for decades and can't recommend them enough.  Barry's always been the guy who shows up.  They answer the phone, they send someone as quickly as possible, the job gets done.  Love these guys.  Highly, highly recommended.

Excellent service and detailed work.  Shannon was ready and willing to help us with our clogged system on a Saturday morning, which we appreciated very much!

Very experienced and attentive to all details at our brand new house.

Highly recommended for all plumbing services!  Six Stars

We lived in a new home with new A/Cs.  As it turned out our A/Cs apparently were not installed with the right level of refrigerant.  Chris Rios from Goettl A/C and Plumbing was able to help us to detect and fix the issue.  We look forward to a cooler summer this year!

My elderly mother called to get an estimate on the repair of a light fixture in the spare bedroom of her house.  When the serviceman left, she contacted me to say he took an awful long time and mostly sat at the table writing the estimate.  It turns out he had recommended $17K worth of work to bring her 1950s home up to modern electric codes (in spite of the fact that there is no city requirement for this to be done) and he actually had the nerve to 'let' her pay in advance, by charging her credit card, for the work to be done later this week.  After I made three phone calls, took three hours out of my day and had a talk with a manager, I got the charges removed from the credit card, canceled the appointment for the work and lectured the manager on not using hard-sell, high-pressure sales tactics on the elderly, and that he should train his people thusly.  He insisted it was her choice to pay in advance and authorize the 'bring up to code' work.  I explained that the whole experience had the feel of a scam.  I will be at the bank first thing in the morning to assure the charges are not made to the card and I will never allow Jon Wayne to step foot in that house again.

He did fix my initial problem, but then he talked me into more.  At which point the accounting started getting Really strange.  send me money became a refrain alternated with but I'm saving you so much  I ended up over paying him $1297.  And in stead of just mailing me that money, he wanted to give me a check for the entire amount I had paid and then I woud give him a check for what I owed.  When I told him his check would have to clear before I could give him another check, he has quit calling.  

This seems like a scam to me

DO NOT USE THIS PLUMBER!!!!
These guys do not know what he is doing! He attempted to replace a recirculation pump w/ timer at our house. He arrives at the house without a long ladder and has to borrow it. He left the old sump pump sitting in the attic and left a pool of water. He also never turned it on before he left and the timer was not working. We were only able to find out about this matter when we had a different plumber stop by to give us a quote about adding a gas line. He went up to the attic to check on the BTU of the heater only to find out the mess the prior plumber had left. Our system would have burnt out had we not had discovered this in time!
They are unprofessional and terrible plumbers!

avoid l&m at all costs and tell everyone to do the same. i can say, without a doubt, that was one of the most horrible experiences of my life. never in my life have i worked with a team so completely unprofessional, no consideration for the customer, constantly shifting blame to the customer and the worst work ethic (or lack thereof rather) ever.

* lucy lies #1 and 2: work would take 2-3 weeks and that her workers would be sensitive to the fact that someone was living in the house while work was being done.
* lucy lie #3: saying i don't get the final check until you are satisfied twice to which we nodded and replied, okay.
* lucy lie #4: she listed the projects spread out over 3 phases showing work to be completed in 2 weeks (we BOTH have this written out).
* painting needed to be completed BEFORE carpet was put in, so the carpet installation had to be pushed back due to painting taking longer than expected.
* the day of carpet installation was a state holiday, so we were home. the painters arrived at 9am to finish up painting before carpet installer arrived at 10am. we pointed out all area of concern re: paint. they agreed that work needed to be done and seem to be rushing to complete it before carpet installation.
* although carpet was installed, we continued to see areas of concern re: the painting.
* on a DAILY basis, we marked areas of concern with blue painter's tape per lucy's instruction. this continued until the beginning of week 3 at which time lucy asked us to stop placing tape on the walls because it was taking off the paint. i then texted her photos of the areas of concern instead. that day, our blue painter's tape disappeared.
* areas of concern continued to be ignored, so i chose to work from home to PHYSICALLY point out areas of concern.
* lucy lie #5: she said the painters said they had been working at our house every day. i told her i worked from home 2 days and they in fact had not worked at all one of those days. her reply was, oh.
* horrible work ethic example: i'd estimate around 40-50% of the painter's time was spent on the phone; working 2.5 hours was considered a full day; the painter sent his WIFE and DAUGHTER to finish other painting tasks.
* i have photos of an exacto blade on the kitchen table; fast food cups left around the house; nails all over the floor of the garage (which we have to enter multiple times daily since it's been serving as our storage area and we've had to live out of boxes this entire time while they work); photos showing work areas ignore time and time again; the instance in which they placed 50-60 pounds of wooden and metal bunk bed parts against 2 pieces of art worth over $200,00 (this was another horrible story).
* in our countless walk-throughs, lucy never took notes. her replies would be verbal affirmations of uh huh. okay. yes. right. etc.
* lucy lie #6: when it came to painting the doors, the painters only painted the outside panel of the door; not the inside. i confirmed with lucy that they were in fact supposed to paint both sides of every door. she confirmed yes stating she'd let them know. when i asked the painter if lucy had told them they were to paint both sides of the doors, they replied no. we were just supposed to paint the outside. for confirmation i asked again. the painter replied that lucy had not told him to paint both sides. i told him what lucy had told us, to which he replied okay.
* after the first day of painting, i witnessed the painter's son place the shower curtain rod back on the wall that had been primed that day. i assumed there was some painting-professional reason for this and i didn't not question it as it's not my area of expertise. the next day, i saw that the curtain rod remained on the wall and they painted around it. i then removed the rod so that they could paint the entire area.
* lucy lie #7: she said they would remove switch plates and tape over hinges before painting. switch plates were not removed, but instead, being painted on around the edges. i then decided to remove the switch plates.
* lucy lie #8: she said window treatment hardware would be removed from the walls before painting began. i saw they were not removed before painting began, so we removed them from the entire house
* at one point they filled our trash and recycle bins completely leaving no room for us to dispose of our trash and recyclables.
