Best Businesses in Fort Worth, TX
We needed a faucet installed in the kitchen and a toilet valve installed in one of the bathrooms. I called and was able to schedule them in the next day. (none emergency request). They came early and completed the job. They cleaned up when done and were very respectful while working in out home. I'd certainly use them again.

Strain Plumbing did a great job, and continued their great customer service after the job was complete. I will be using them again in the future. Highly recommend.

It was at this most August point in Earth's history that the first amphibious creatures to evolve reached out with their stubby, scaly paws, and with deliberate steps, crawled out of the water and into the glorious sun. No longer confined to the reeking pools of the fetid swamps, they were now free! Free to roam the banks of slippery mud and begin their dominion of this new, uncharted world! They were the pioneers of the new future, a new world order that would span the millennia.
And it was about three whole seconds later that they realized what a colossal #$@&!@ mistake they had made.
The problem was quite simple. Land, by definition, was not water. Land was here, under their feet, but the water was now inconveniently over there, and the further into the land you went, the more distant the water became. And since water remained essential to staying not-dead, this meant that the more involved you became with land, the more work you had to perform in order to get water.
For the first amphibians, this meant hoofing it over miles of jungle, dodging 8-foot cockroaches and whatever other nightmares mother nature had just cooked up, all for the simple sake of getting a drink and live to see another day of roach-dodging. Worse still, having kids required more water and an extended honeymoon at any one of a million watering holes that quickly became known as Predator Heaven or Prey Hell (today known as Club Med).
For millions of years, this was de rigueur for all the life that walked or crawled or slithered on this earth.
It was a serious bummer.
Then, around 245 MYA, the dinosaurs appeared. These newer models were special because of their revolutionary approach to the egg. Instead of dumping an egg in water and praying for the best as the roaches charged, these guys encapsulated the water INSIDE the shell of the egg. Mothers around the world were free to fire at will as they pleased, the nearest pond and its minions of death be damned.
It was the world's first attempt at plumbing.
Sadly, it was about the most successful nature was able to devise until homo sapiens appeared. It was the Romans who most famously tackled the problem of moving water from where it was to where people wanted it to be - mainly, in their bathtubs. Because nature had forgotten about body odor during the leap to land, too.
It wasn't long before the Romans invented indoor plumbing and health spas proliferated across the world of the ancients like Starbucks hitting virgin territory. For the first time, life did not have to bust its hump for a dip in lavender bubbles and a good loofah scrub.
Unfortunately, the new technology was entirely based on pipes made out of lead, and the history of plumbing pretty much went downhill from that point on.
Perhaps it was an affectation of the lead coursing happily through their veins, but humanity bought into the whole indoor plumbing concept and added to it exponentially. Baths became showers, showers became multi-headed, holes over the inlaw's room became toilets, and we all completely forgot how the whole thing worked.
As the opportunities for profit grew in this ecological niche, a new breed of specialists with low-hanging jeans quickly evolved to pick up the slack and make a quick buck. And many of them made more than just a quick buck or two. For the unwary ex-amphibian caught in the clutches of a wrench-wielding roach named Bob, a $2 leak in a shower could easily become a $15K home-improvement odyssey through the depths of hell. And as quickly as the damage was done, Bob and his ilk would scurry back into the underbrush to hide under logs and leaf litter to await the next sucker to call out for a water heater installation.
Ever since, it's been a hard job to sort out the roaches from the saints.
Happily, Speake's is one of the few saints on the block. And what miracles they perform! They arrive, when they say they will arrive. Their arrival window can be as little as 2 hours. They know what they're doing, and do it very quickly. They are very free and open with advice and options, but don't push a hard sell. And they go the extra mile to make sure everything is done right.
My parents had a leak in their shower. $15K was the estimate to rip it out & replace. But Speake's diagnosed a potential seal leak over the phone and talked them through the fix. About $50 and some elbow grease was all they needed. They did it themselves & hired Speake's to install a set of water heaters. On that basis, we had Speake's install our new heater. It wasn't cheap, but they used quality materials you don't get from Home Depot. Better yet, they installed a catch-pan for the water and the release pipe (which went through the wall), gratis. Speake's gets my highest recommendation

Oasis Plumbing was prompt and professional. If you are looking for a great local plumber who does the job right, this the go-to company. Had a leaking shower and it was affordable and quickly fixed.
Watauga, TX 76148
Best plumber I've ever ever had. Super easy to reach and had someone come check on my toilet within the hour. Any problem you have they can fix. My toilet had no sewage clean out because my house was built in 20's I'm assuming. So they had to dig up a bunch of roots and put in a sewage clean out for my toilet to properly run. Did it all in one day and got me squared away. Robert's a great guy who's got a gift of providing a great family service!

My son came home and found the upstairs hall bathroom faucet just running with no way to turn it off at the sink, below the sink, or at the water main. Called my home warranty and no one could come out till 5 days later! Mars Services responded to my request in minutes and sent a plumber out within hours! Very pleased with the level of service and professionalism. Highly recommend!

They called me back to see if they could help through the initial issues which I am impressed by. I didnt get any work done but its obvious they wanted to fix the problem and try and help me. I'd give them another chance in the future. Thanks Sara for calling me back and for your attention.

I gave ONE star to this HEB Pluming company because there is no way to give a ZERO star on this Web page. I called HEB Plumbing Friday Oct 18, 2019 (817-283-0183) because a leak at my house front yard. They schedule me for Saturday Sat OCT 19, 2019 between the hours of 9:00 to 11:00 AM. Come Sat 19 about 11:05 am I called them because they did not show up yet. They told me that the night before they worked until 3:00 am in a gas leak and they are running late. They told me that they will be at my house in 2-3 hours. Well, it is 5:00 pm and they still do not show up yep. I give them a call again to see what it is going on because, the day light is beginning to vanish into the night. Once again, another excuse plus another lie. They said I am next, and they will be at my house in 30 minutes. They never show up at my house and they didn't have the decency to call me and tell me that they cannot make it. Don't trust this HEB Plumbing Company!

Larry was absolutely the BEST. He was so helpful and kind. I will always use Ardvark!

We had a gas leak and the propane had to be turned off and we had to get a plumber. This was 3 days before Christmas. I used the contact page and received a reply the same day. I had plumbers out the next day, all day, replacing gas lines under the house. They were nice, they worked hard, in single digit temps. The fee was lower than expected. I will use the again.
