Best Businesses in Austin, TX

Kevin and Precision Leak Detection are probably the best company you could call on if you are experiencing a water leak and aren't able to locate it or sure where to turn. We had a water leak at our house that was most likely located in our slab (as it was not showing itself anywhere else and we could hear the water running/see meter running). We were unsure who to call or what to do as we knew costs on something like this can easily skyrocket and we wanted to be smart about how we went about handling this. The first plumbers we called out couldn't find anything and recommended we wait to let the leak show itself (not a good idea) and other plumbers we spoke to could only start opening walls and tearing through things to search for it. Another leak detection company was extremely expensive and booked weeks out. Kevin was so knowledgeable and experienced that we were quickly confident we made the right decision. He was able to locate the main leak in our slab pretty quickly and help us talk through some ideas for repair with a plumber. He uses a lot of different tools that help him locate the leak/lines/manifolds with the least amount of invasiveness to your property. Once we made that necessary repair we later discovered we had a second slab leak and Kevin went above and beyond to work with us on coming back out to locate that. He was patient, thorough, never did we feel that he was in a rush to leave and just really cared that we were able to identify the problem and again talk through some ideas for repairs. He gave us some guidance and walked us through some steps over the phone to help us out. We were extremely anxious about the whole process and cost to get to the bottom of our problem, as we've had a lot of other unexpected costs recently, and Kevin and Precision Leak Detection were just the right team we were supposed to cross paths with. We know without a doubt we would not have gotten the same level of service and care from another company. Should we ever need their services again, fingers crossed, we would use them again in a heartbeat and refer our friends/family. Thank you Kevin and Precision Leak Detection. God bless!

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.

I'm a new client of Ross Plumbing.  Clint replaced a damaged copper line with PEX - supporting a recirculating hot water pump attached to my water heater.  Ross Plumbing scheduled me quickly, and the repair is awesome.  Clint was knowledgable, super friendly and the price was fair.  Ross Plumbing is my go-to plumber moving forward.  Thank you again Clint!

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 was searching for a replacement part. After calling several places around Austin, including Home Depot, I called Josco and they saved the day. They had a solid selection of leftover parts in the back and the manager was extremely helpful in making sure the parts matched.

I have been trying to find a great handyman for a long time now. I have hired several people already. All who had hundreds of amazing reviews on yelp. Unfortunately after the jobs were complete everything always had to be redone. One handyman even installed a swing improperly which led to a very serious injury for a 1 year old. But that was certainly not the case with Dan. He was punctual, thorough, kind and went so far above and beyond. He has amazing instincts as a handyman and I was so impressed with his ability to problem solve with some of the more challenging projects. It can be hard when reading through reviews to know who to hire but please take my word for it he is definitely the best handyman I have every worked with and I can promise you won't be disappointed!!

***Issues were handled by management to our satisfaction***Late, disrespectful, and had to call another plumber to fix their incorrect repair. Disappointing.

David C., Your people already let me know in no uncertain terms that I will never win in court because I can't prove they did anything.  I'm really glad you put in writing that they turned off my water. When we parted ways your manager was screaming that I had done it myself. I've read your other bad reviews. I guess this is just par for the course with your business.  Your people were late more than once, they were disrespectful, and I did have to have another company come fix what your guys caused. I don't see how my review is unfair.  By the way, I HAD to get my water fixed. Your guys blew up my softener (4 years old) and left us with 0 running water in the entire home.  All pipes were clogged with resin.  He thought we had a main break. He went from faucet to faucet turning them on and watching them clog because he had no idea what he had done by cranking on and off my water 15-20 times.  He even told me he couldn't believe my softener didn't have a bypass valve. Well it does. The next 2 plumbers I called knew what had been done within 30 seconds.  They showed me how to put the bypass on and how the original repair could have been done by turning the water off at the h20 heater itself. He never needed to turn the water off at the street.  I had 0 water for 2 days. Your crew of bullies blamed me and wanted to charge $700 to clear the lines. They said I would need to buy the new water softener and heaters that were then filled with Resin!  The tiny little repair turned into one big nightmare.  Your guy said it was just a coincidence that my water softener blew up on their second visit!  While they were turning my water on and off!  Why on earth would I PAY your guys to repair it?  Is that the scam?  Break stuff and charge to fix it?  Your comments about shirking responsibility just aren't true. All y'all had to do was fix it. If I hadn't told your plumber what was wrong, he still wouldn't have known. He was at my house for 7 hours using a compressor to blow out my lines individually. Problem was when he would turn the water on, they would re fill with resin. He hadn't bypassed the now broken water softener. It was a night of madness. They made a huge mess of water in every room they were in. Knowing what I know now, their blowing efforts were futile! Other plumbers laugh when I tell them how your 2 guys blew line after line not knowing Resin was in the lines.  It literally took the next plumber 30 seconds to know what was going on.  The next plumber after that took 30 seconds. I wanted to see if he could figure it out. How does a licensed plumber not know this???  Y'all keep challenging me to take you to the plumbing board. I will file a complaint because I'm not sure your guys were really licensed plumbers. We have filed with the BBB.  Your guy let me know that I'll never win because I can't prove you did anything. At least you now agree your guy shut the water off. They literally screamed at me saying I did it myself. That I had turned off and on my water. I don't even know how to do that!

Great company! Installed our water heater, replaced garbage disposal.  Counting on San Marcos Plumbing to install our toilet soon. Thank you!

Pair Plumbing and Septic came out and identified both of my plumbing problems that no one else could find. Their service and expertise was A+. They also cleaned out my septic at a reasonable price in a timely manner. Thank you Pair Plumbing for your customer care and professional service. I will use you again and refer you friends and family. I think the bad review they got sounds more personal than the actual service they provide.

Had a great experience with your company this morning nice to have a great plumber who's honest

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

Excellent service, prices affordable and unlike other companies, they value customer service and satisfaction. I will definitely use again and highly recommend them.

Technician showed up on time and was courteous.  Service is good and pricing is fair.

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

Big John was referred to my by my home warranty company for a broken water heater after the first company couldn't take my call to even schedule an appointment.  He arrived within 2hrs, clearly explained my options, worked out the details with the warranty company, and had the replacement installed the next morning.   I really appreciate the prompt and professional service.   I compared prices for comparable plumbing services and he was competitive.

We have a vintage stove we needed repaired and someone suggested we called L&M.  We did, explained we needed someone to repair our vintage gas stove and asked if that was something they could do.  Absolutely was the response, so we scheduled a service call.  

After the guy they sent checked the gas lines to the stove, he said he was a plumber who knew nothing about stoves (even how to light a pilot) and we had to pay $150 for the service call.  We called L&M and were told basically too bad for you, give us our money - oh and make the check out to Lucy Moreno personally (not the business).  Since the plumber had to stay until he got paid and he was stuck in the middle, we paid him the money.
