He found it!  My wife & I caught a slab leak in our garage the moment it started, literally. The wall was a little damp after we came back from dinner there was a tiny puddle.  Uh-oh.  The plumber came out and recommended Kevin @ Precision Leak so we wouldn't jackhammer the garage slab on an expensive wild goose chase.  That was back in March 2018 and the leak was so small Kevin couldn't find it.  I really appreciated his thoroughness and troubleshooting with me right there.  But alas, we were defeated.  Fast forward 3 months and he came out again.  The leak increased in volume, so now he could hear it with his super sonar.  He very quickly narrowed it down, and now the pipes are exposed and labeled for the plumber to do his work.  Kevin is an all around nice guy.  I really appreciated the time he took to explain things to me and let me add to the troubleshooting conversation.  The irony is if I would've ignored it and let it get worse I could've saved him a trip!  Thanks Kevin ;)

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!

Got a quote for a clogged toilet. Reasonably priced yet booked for the day. Needed service ASAP! The gentleman on the phone gave me two local recommendations! This is what I consider excellent customer service. Even though they were unable to see me, they went above and beyond by giving me local recommendations to resolve my problem. Thank you Marshall Plumbing!!

My Water Heater went out 12/27/2021. I called Ross Plumbing as recommended by a friend and the recording asked me to text the number with my information and the issue.  Cody contacted me that evening. I sent him a few pictures and explained the issue. He gave me a fair price and said he would move things around and get to it the next day if i approved of the price. I agreed.
He and a helper were at my house the next morning at around nine with the new Water Heater and were finished in very short order. My wife and I were impressed with his willingness and professionalism to answer any questions we had about the current job and any other questions we had about other issues in the house. I highly recommend Cody and Ross Plumbing.

Ruben is our friendly neighborhood plumber. Over the years, he has helped us replace toilets, repair toilets, replace entire plumbing lines, install water heaters - you name it! Ruben charges a fair price (and sometimes hasn't charged us at all for repairs) and does excellent work.

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.

Excellent customer service. We were told at Home Depot we would have to replace the entire faucet for the kitchen sink as they didn't sell parts even to service its own brands. The guys at Josco found the right part. After a little discussion as to whether it would fit correctly, we went ahead and bought the piece. They said if it wasn't right we could bring it back as long as water wasn't run through it, which was completely reasonable. So a project that could have been in the $200 range got done for about 40 bucks. Thank you, guys!

Would definitely recommend Danny at A List Handyman to do any kind of job that you might need done.  He installed our two bathroom exhaust fans along with installing ductwork and roof vents.  He purchased the materials for us, gave us a very reasonable and excellent quote, and stood by it.  Very knowledgeable, hard working, thorough, helpful, and efficient. Will definitely be calling him again soon to help us out.

Gas control valve went bad on water heater.  Part was under warranty so no cost for the part.  From the day I called in the problem to the day the part was installed was Saturday to Wednesday.  That's four and a half days of ice cold showers in the month of November.  I believe if a little more effort was put into immediately acquiring / ordering a replacement part, it could have been shipped overnight.  Long story short, I was overcharged for labor ( $300 for an hour's work).  Called office to discuss the enormous bill, and why they did not give me the 10% military discount even though I had printed the coupon from their website and provided it to the plumber.  I called and left message after message.  A total of 4-5 calls.  The dispatcher assured me I would receive a call back.  No office manager, no billing department person, nobody ever bothered to call me back.  Bottom line: the water heater is fixed, but I know I overpaid for a warranty claim. I also know this company has a long way to go in learning to provide exceptional customer service.  I will use a different plumbing company for any future plumbing needs.  Perhaps one which actually cares enough to RETURN PHONE CALLS!

Horrible service. Terrible customer service. Their representative was rude and did not help at all. I would never recommend them as a professional plumbing company.

Bill and Diane Pair with Pair Plumbing & Septic have provided me with excellent customer service and work.  My farm is located about 20 miles from Cameron and recently all of my pipes froze and and broke due to the freeze.  The guys they sent to asses the damage were very professional and quickly identified the problem. The Pair's  were responsive and sympathetic to my needs and repaired my pipes.  This was not the first time we have had them service the farm, really good people.  Diane is a really sweet lady, more of a peach than a Pair!

I have used this company for over 30 years.  They are reliable and friendly and do great work!  Allison is very fun to talk with and gets the job set up easily.  The work is good and I trust them to come in my house when I'm out on an errand.  They may seem a bit high, but I figure so is everyone else.  Quality is worth paying for.  All in all, they rock!

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 had a problem with our waterheater just before the winter holidays.  Chris came to help us and he is courteous and professional. He explained the problem in details and told us why it need to be replaced. The cost of the replacement is written upfront and explained clearly before the work is performed.

Deceptive sells tactics!  Compressor wasn't working. Tech said voltage absorption and distribution would need to be fixed in order to even check the compressor.  Cost $700+ and 2-3 hrs of work. Got a second opinion/company to come and they changed the capacitor in 5 mins. Everything works now.
My gripe is that the Jon Wayne tech had no mention of capacitor and I explicitly asked what the minimum it would take to get the ac working.

Horrible service! This man left in the middle of doing the job supposedly to go get a part he needed and never came back. I do not recommend this company or this person.

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!

After dealing with Lucy Moreno and her business I think I have a pretty good idea of what it is like to go through a terrible divorce: I trusted the wrong person who repeatedly broke their promises to me and ultimately I spent a lot of money and needed legal counsel to make an awful person leave my life while praying they don't destroy my house in the process.
I contracted with this business to remodel my kitchen. In the beginning the initial project manager (Tom Estes) warned me that I would have to get tough with Lucy and basically kiss her butt if I was going to get her to perform all the stuff she promised to do. That was insane to me, I was baffled that her own sub was undermining his boss, and I shouldn't have to get tough with anyone who I was paying to provide services they enthusiastically agreed to do.  Tom also said that the comment Lucy hears most often from her clients is You lied to me! Lucy assured me that there would be no cost overruns, they wouldn't do anything we didn't agree to do in writing, I'd be happy with their quality work, etc.  
It turns out this business wrote the book on dirty contractor tricks. Every other day I was getting messages that work was cancelled and they'd have to start up another day. My favorite excuse was that when work couldn't start on a Monday for whatever reason, she claimed that it was easier to work a full five day week then to get started mid-week and only work a couple of days in a row so progress was pushed off until the following Monday. Sure, her crew totally isn't sitting around not making any money on another smaller project she didn't want to turn down in favor of my project because working a 3 or 4 day week is so complicated.
Even though our contract was fixed-price Lucy constantly hit me up for the cost of items she either forgot to include in the price or she didn't want to pay for.  Seemed like it was always a pushy, high-pressure sell to get me to agree to something now now now, the guy is here he can do it or he'll have to come back later type of thing. I always said no, and when I'd ask her why she doesn't think the contract means she has to cover it she'd throw up her hands and say hey, I won't  fight you on this one. I didn't want to fight either, I just wanted my contractor to do what they said they would do!
When I found substandard work in progress and complained I was told to relax and stop bringing these things to her attention because they're not finished and there's nothing to worry about. When I called her attention to inferior work upon completion I was blamed for not catching the poor quality work in progress and directing the sub to fix it (which under agreement I could not even do, the homeowner cannot direct subs). Everything was blame the homeowner, including the fact that I was trying to turn an old carport into a kitchen, something that was abundantly clear to this business when they bid on the project.
The previous reviewer totally nailed it: Lucy is a bully, and with a volatile combination of arrogance and stubbornness to the point of being surreal.  While standing in my kitchen as her subs ripped up parts of my new wood floor to redo it for the second time (and only after bitter complaining on my part) she refused to acknowledge that there had been any problems on my job and that we do quality work, we get nothing but compliments. Say what?!?  I had to hear that's the best that can be done until I argued, and argued, and argued, and argued to get things fixed. The project suffered from lack of oversight and management, with Lucy and much of her subs apparently incapable of applying logic or common sense to the work.  I spent more than one evening surveying what was supposed to be my fabulous new kitchen completely in tears trying to comprehend the insane mind that could think this kind of work was acceptable.  I must admit that a couple of her subs were honest, hardworking guys who obviously cared more about quality and customer service than Lucy did.
When the project failed to pass the electrical inspection Lucy doubled-down and refused to do any more work until I gave her the final payment, which clearly is not due by contract until all the work is done and the liabilities are cleared.  Lucy literally stated she did not care about the terms of our contract, she just wanted to be paid (greatest email ever, got it in writing, thank you!). Never mind the fact that it didn't pass the city inspection or that a sub (who had been fired early in the project before demo even started) had attempted to file an invalid lien on my property. She makes up the rules as she goes along and I don't think she ever even actually read the contract that we signed.  Her work ethic reminds me of a drug-addict: lie and do whatever it takes to get the money and always deny any problems exist.
