Best Businesses in Houston, TX

The thermocouple on my water heater needed replacing. The unit was only 3 years old, so the parts were covered by the factory warrantee, but not the service and installation. Sean was very knowledgeable, and the price was about what I expected. He was even able to point out some mistakes the builder made when installing the unit during the original construction. Issues which I will be following up on.

they installed a leaking manabloc. They fixed it the same day at a good price. Also, crew was very polite. Also fix was done in a way to avoid damage to drywall.

John was fast and friendly. He is definitely a drain specialist. He fixed a drain that another plumber couldn't

I had a garbage disposal that stopped working and was clogging up the sink and the dishwasher. Not an emergency, but an annoyance. I called one of the other plumbing companies that got a good review here and they wanted more money than the disposal and the installation and all the plumbing work I have had done in my place. So I asked them to leave.

Called Gary over at Plumbco and he and Andy came out within the hour. They checked it out, gave me a very reasonable quote, went right to work, got it working again (saved me the cost of a replacement), checked it a few times to make sure it was working, and then checked the dishwasher to make sure there were no visible problems. Gary then told me what to do if there was still a problem with the dishwasher that he might have missed. He also told me that I had made a nice purchase on the original disposal and that it was a good one that should last for many years.

Overall, I am very, very pleased with Plumbco , Gary, and Andy. They seem like really nice guys, very professional, made sure that they kept my place clean, told me the price and then did the work for that price, and that price was quite reasonable. I would highly recommend Plumbco and will call them again if I need any plumbing work done. I know that one of my sisters needs some work done, so I got a business card just for her. Thanks Gary and Andy. I appreciate the quality service, professionalism, and fair price.

Right choice was very available to answer all my questions regarding a water heater project I needed done. They educated me on the difference between on demand electric vs a smart tank water heater and helped me choose the best for my home. They built a platform for me to get my new water heater back to code and at the right height and also helped me to fix some piping issues that arose during installation. The team was professional, thorough and polite. I'll be calling them again when I need to update my toilet. Thank you Travis and Justin for your expertise.

Helped us out in the middle of the plumbing shortage here in Houston. Great work and everything works well. Finished quickly but took thr time to check everything out properly. Well done

Arrived within the specified time.  Great job and great service.  Reasonable pricing and would recommend Drain Control to others.

Hugo really wowed me. He did 3 jobs for me today, one fairly complicated. The results surprised and delighted me--and he charged less than I expected. I would DEFINITELY use him again.

Revised review. Initially it was 2-stars. I have to update the rating for this company to 5-stars. After a couple of appts and other issues I decided to use someone else. BUT, the owner of this company is so nice and understanding and has a genuine intention to do what's right and to make his customers happy. The only reason I needed to change was because I needed to get the work completed because I'm selling my house. I told him i would pay for the work already done because thats fair. Because the owner is really big on having good ratings,  he texted me to say that he would be refunding everything since he couldn't make the situation right. Based on that alone I had to update this rating to five stars because he has gone over and above what most companies would have done trying to correct a situation. His schedule is just very busy and he just couldn't get to me in the time frame I needed. I have rarely seen anyone with this kind of ethic and moral character since I moved to Houston. I will use this company for all of my plumbing needs going forward and I have already recommended them to 2 of my friends a few minutes ago. This kind of customer service has no price! Well done Robert! You're still the best in my books!

The day before the major winter freeze, we were removing the water-hose to wrap our pipes when it broke. Water pooled in the flowerbed and eventually made it into the house and onto the floors.

I called them and they came in an hour and repaired the pipe. They were nice, professional, clean and wore a mask.

I definitely recommend them and plan to use them again...soon.

Got some water stain on the ceiling. I'm a pretty DIY person, so I cut the ceiling trying to fix it myself, but couldn't even locate the leakage.
Called Nathan up since they are located quite close to my home. They quickly located the issue was the loosen bath tub drain cover. The leakage was small so hard to notice. Glad they were able to spot it. Sometimes, I have to admit DIY just can't match professional's experience.

They quickly fix it with a reasonable price. Great job.

Great experience with EPW services in Spring. Mr. Edmund took my call on a water heater problem. Pilot light wouldn't stay lit. Turned out it needed the gas control valve replaced. Mr. Edmund came after hours and took care of the problem right away. He was very professional and friendly. Best part our water heater was still under warranty so Mr. Edmund didn't collect from us but handled all the paperwork to collect from the water heater company. Great people, great service!

My husband and I just bought a new house and while walking the dog, I noticed the outside faucet was leaking at a steady rate. We are new to the area and I found Alex and First Aid Plumbing through yelp. I called a bit panicked he was able to get here within a couple of hours. He was wearing a mask. He assessed the issue and briefed me on the plan. I also asked him to look at a couple of other things and give me a future estimate on work we were planning on doing in the near future. He gave me an estimate on the leak, which was the priority and the future items at the same time. I felt he He repaired the leak, showed me the rusted out old pipe and also the wall from outside to in, before he closed everything up and resealed and insulated the fixture. I was very impressed with his professionalism, as well as his respectful manner. I see why First Aid has a 5 star rating and I'm planning on using them again for all of our future projects.

I was recently informed that it appeared I had a leak in the exterior water line. The city sent a crew out and informed me there was a leak between house and meter. After checking several leads I contacted Texas Best. They were very professional and courteous. They asked some questions and they could come by in a couple of hours. I telephoned around 3 o'clock. They arrived in less than an hour and looked the scene. My yard was so full of water you wold think a storm and come in and not run off. They offered 2 options and told me one way more expensive because they could not see any bubbling to pinpoint the leak. The second option less expensive was to run a new line from meter to house. This should last several years. They can put the next morning a round 8. By 1030 they were thru. They even did a good job of cleanup. The exposed ground will have grass full in very quickly.
The crew was very polite and very hard working. I would use them again with no problem. I would recommend them with out reservation.

Needed these folks to snake a couple of drains that were slow-draining. They responded quickly with a quote, showed up on time for the appointment, were courteous and neat, and did the work quickly. Would definitely hire again.

They were recommended to me by my networking group. I scheduled a technician to repair several problems on one of my rental properties. I spoke to David about the fees. He said he would work me a deal because of the amount of business that I would like to have them perform for my company. David is their manager. He was not very willing to help out and seemed very short. Their technician came out and perform the services but did not perform the one item that I need repaired the most, a leak. I contacted the original plumber that did the original remodeling and he came out and fixed the leak. I had the same technician from JD plumbing come out and verify that the leak was done. He sent me a bill for $175 for after hours. This was a regularly scheduled visit. After speaking to David, he said that if I don't pay the $175 he would put a lien on The rental property. He also said he would not be doing business with me again. This is a company that I would not recommend. They overcharge and come up with lame excuses to why they have to charge you that much. Do not use these guys.

I had several minor plumbing problems in my house. I did have a leak that needed  attention immediately.  I was given a quote in advance and could have said no.  So far, the work appears to be quality work. The problem is the work done I paid 404.00. I needed the leak stopped NOW, so I authorized the work and paid the bill.  This was extremely high for 2 hours work.  That's 200.00 dollars an hour.  I will definately shop the competition for my next plumbing repair.

I had a poor experience using this business to fix my hot water heater in July and August 2022.
We have a fairly new and common Noritz tankless hot water heater which stopped working in mid-July.
I went with the fix proposed by them, spent over $1,000 doing so. They have been out 5 times since(hot water has been intermittently on and off since then), a few different technicians- and no one has been able to figure out why their repair can't fix the problem.
The office manager at TQP also has been hard to get a hold of and doesn't always return calls.
Finally I called another company this week.
Their technician figured out the problem within an hour or so  - it was a faulty valve not the sensor they replaced. Furthermore, the other company arranged to get my parts replaced under the warranty, which TQP didn't tell me was at least an option. I will not be using them again.

I am only giving a one-star review because I have had a couple of decent experiences in the far past with Abacus. Abacus Plumbing tried to price gouge me out of $380-$700 to repair a small bedroom faucet. They offered me no explanation of the estimate and the plumber, Jeremiah Wagner was exceptionally rude and a nightmare to communicate with, refusing to explain the estimate charges. He even told me why don't I just go to Home Depot and do it myself.  
In the end I had another plumber tell me that I should have been told that the entire faucet needed to be changed out, not a repair. Abacus tried to get me to fix a faucet that was beyond repair. DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICE, THEY CANNOT BE TRUSTED.
