Best Businesses in Texas

I'm a renter.  I've rented a lot of different places, but the rental agency I currently rent from is a really great, above average company.  One of the reasons they are amazing is because they care about maintaining the homes they rent out.  

In the year plus that I have lived in this house, I have had to have the air conditioning checked on about 2-3 times.  The first guy who came out was from Honest Air Conditioning and he was the nicest man ever, very kind to me and my little girl.  He figured out what was going on with the AC and recommended a new coil.  He then came back and installed it.

Today, we had Randy come out and check on the Air Conditioner as part of routine maintenance of the house.  Randy was incredibly nice, very thorough in his inspection, filled me in on what is going on with the AC and let me know that he's going to help make sure I'm not wasting money on electricity by making the AC more efficient.  He went (in my opinion) above and beyond today and made me feel very at ease.  

It can be difficult to have strangers come into your home and feel comfortable about it (at least for me), but both the men that have come to my house from Honest Air Conditioning were really nice, didn't make me uncomfortable, and were really good about keeping me thoroughly informed about exactly what they were doing and what they think is going on with my AC.  

I highly recommend Honest Air Conditioning.  It think they are really fairly priced and they do a good job inspecting and making repairs.

I recently had Plumber Near Me replace all of the parts inside the toilet tank because it was running. They were prompt, courteous, and efficient. They gave me options for what to replace, which was great. They also provided helpful tips to keep everything in good working order and even provided information on how to replace a small part in the future if needed.

My flooring company had recommended them after one of their plumbers reinstalled a commode after flooring had been put down and they did a great job then as well.

Scenario:
-Overall Plumbing Health Check on 4/22/22

The good:
-Increased/checked our overall water pressure by turning the proper valve outside the house
-Pointed out the water shut off valves outside the house in case of emergencies
-Answered general questions

The bad:
-They missed the first appt. I had to call to reschedule it proactively
-Failed to notice or inform us we had a leaky kitchen sink/pipes (I found out after water started pouring out underneath the cabinet the day after)
-Did not provide a quote to change our leaking kitchen sink faucet (which we knew about prior) or help find us a new sink which we were looking to replace for aesthetic reasons initially
-Did not follow up at all after the appt
-Felt as though I had to lead them through the house (each and every bathroom, sink etc) in order to get the overall plumbing checked vs them having a normal general flow of what they would routinely do for a thorough plumbing check
-Raymond put down his Apprentice multiple times while onsite which looked unprofessional and rude to me
-Raymond made rude comments with unnecessary unprovoked profanity about our home inspector and the details of the inspectors report which had lead us to reach out to Davis plumbing in the first place
-Raymond and his Apprentice walked around the house in their work boots without any offer to remove them (we had just moved in, so that wasn't respectful in my professional or personal opinion)
-I reached out again to Davis Plumbing via Yelp to get a quote and got a copy pasted new customer message back about setting an appointment before they could provide any further quotes or services
-Still no follow up since 4/22.

Their recommendations after the inspection: (our house was built in 2013 for ref)
-Replace all four of our duel flush toilets (due to being unreliable/break down the most often)
-Replace cartridges in two of our showers to make the knobs easier to turn and avoid a potential flood at 'some' point (Verbal quote of circa $700)
-Everything else looked 'good'

Quick service and really fair pricing. They were able to work with my schedule and fix my issue. Super polite as well.

I was recommended by a family member to this business. My estimate was given pretty quickly and was able to get into the schedule easily. I had a toilet that needed to be replaced and a problem with a leak in my shower. My toilet was replaced quickly and at a reasonable price and Gabe found out the problem for the water leak in my shower and was easily able to fix it. I was very impressed with the job that was done Gabe was very professional explained everything that needed to be done and what the problem was. I would definitely recommend him to my family and friends and will use him again in the future if needed.

I have just had a plumbing repair done at my home by PlumbSmart. This was the first time I've used them, and I intend to be a repeat customer! I don't think I have ever experienced such amazing Customer Service. Everyone I dealt with at PlumbSmart was skilled, caring, and professional. I highly recommend them! Their glowing reviews on Yelp are legitimate and well-deserved.
I reached out to them about my plumbing problem, and within minutes, Roger called me and let me know that a technician would be scheduled.  Joe was right on time. He was very knowledgeable -- diagnosed the problem and fixed it quickly. I didn't feel pressured to have additional diagnostics or additional work done. Joe was sympathetic and caring. And even though the problem was simple for Joe to fix, I was truly amazed that the cost was so low.

Best handyman service I have ever experienced! I had a fence built with this service and really couldn't be happier with Honey Do Services. I was contacted within minutes of submitting my request and had an excellent price quote for my proposed project. Scheduling was easy and very flexible when I needed to make a last minute scheduling change. I received a phone call prior to the job to discuss the details as the owner wanted to be sure he got it right. The owner of Honey Do Services and another gentleman arrived on time and were very friendly and professional. The built my fence quickly and paid attention to detail. The project came out better than I thought possible. I will definitely be using this service again and strongly recommend to anyone needing work done.

Excellent fast service.  Bertin & Cade were able to unclog a complete sewer blockage from our house out to the septic tank. Reasonably priced and were there within a couple hours of my call, to get us back up & running. Very grateful for their quick & thorough response.

In June 2021, a PVC nipple connecting our water meter to our main water line separated and we lost about 15,000 gallons of water.  Because of our prior experiences with Adept Plumbing, I contacted Christian to schedule a visit to repair the line.  As usual, Christian came out to our home quickly and assessed the problem.  He concluded that the overall connection to our water meter needed to be replaced.  He carefully considered how to perform  the job and completed it successfully at a reasonable price.  It is clear that the new piping configuration is much better than the original installation and we won't have to worry about this problem recurring.  

We have used Adept Plumbing for several other jobs over the years and Christian always does a great job at reasonable cost.  If we need plumbing assistance in the future, we will certainly contact Christian once again.

We had a repairman come to our property yesterday to check a leak under the house and to repair 2 toilets that would not stop running.  So he looked under our house (did not crawl under house), said he didn't have any plastic to lay on to go under and repair leak and he would have to come back out.  You would think that they would be a little more prepared but whatever.  Did replace 2 stoppers in the 2 toilets.  The charge for this service was $250.00.  We thought that included coming back to fix the leak under the house but no that would be a completely new charge.  He was at our place for maybe 40-45 minutes.  So I recommend you check your pockets when they leave.  What a rip off.

Responded quickly and gave me a good referral for a contractor that can help solve our issues plumbing related issue.

I needed a couple ceiling fans replaced and contacted Avery Handyman Project due to their previous reviews and they fact they were in my neighborhood. A couple messages later and I was scheduled for that same day. Lewis was very professional and polite, arrived on time and cleaned up when he was done. I wouldn't hesitate to contact AHP for my next project.

Kinda  an emergency, needed yard mowed quick.   Martinez Services call texted back in minutes on memorial day weekend.  He got over in a couple of hours on a saturday.  Due to appointment running late had to leave him money out.  He is very honest, did work.  Great job, stayed in contact, sent pictures.  Great guy, great lawn guy.  Top notch.  Hard worker.

These folks are just the best guys ever.  They were totally booked up for the week but they worked us in because we are long time customers.  If you are looking for great work, wonderful customer service and fair prices, they are the best.

Integrity is in the name and that's not just a word.  It's a fact. I live in an older condominium on bottom floor.  My neighbor had a faucet leak in his unit that brought water into my condo and created a lot of damage.  My wall and kitchen cabinets had to be torn out and I am living in an extended stay place.  Once the wall was opened up to begin the water and mold remediation, it exposed the neighbor's drain line; an old cast iron drain pipe that was also leaking.  Not what brought large amounts of water into my unit but a problem nonetheless.  Don, from WD Integrity made himself available on the fly, limiting the delays that could have potentially been lengthy. He replaced a section of the drain line that appeared to be the issue but unfortunately there was still a section higher up that also needed replaced.  Again, he made himself available on top of his busy schedule to accommodate my neighbor's schedule.  His rates are very reasonable.  His expertise if dynamite.  He is my GO TO plumber and I can't say enough to express the gratitude I have in him and his company.  I say it again, INTEGRITY is not just in the name, it's in his character.

Neighborhood Plumbing and Drain was the third plumber I called, and the first that understood the problem, explained it to me, and fixed it. Paul was extremely competent, and I would trust him with any plumbing problem. I received frequent calls from their office keeping me updated about when they were most likely to arrive.

I trust  Neighborhood and will call them the next time I have a problem.

We found Chris through our contractor. He has earned our trust! Super knowledgeable and prompt. His prices are reasonable. I found my plumber for life.

Called him today on a Saturday at the last minute because our water heater went out. He was able to squeeze us in and worked quickly and efficiently to repair it. He was also very communicative throughout the day via text message, and was courteous and willing to explain the entire repair process. I would highly recommend Aloha to anyone needing plumbing service in the Round Rock area.

We will be customers for life.

Our very first home purchase came with a host of air conditioning and electrical issues, and Fox Service Company made our little home livable! Although they were not the lowest bid, we chose Fox Service Company to do the work because they were friendly and knowledgeable, and explained everything to us clearly, and as many times as we needed. They also gave us two estimates: a Must-Do Now list, as well as a When You Can Afford Everything list. We found it very helpful in deciding how to allocate our limited budget, as well as how to plan for future upgrades. There were no hard sell tactics, and we received their enthusiastic support whenever we decided to choose a less-expensive option.

For some reason, the air conditioning unit had originally been placed on the roof (by another company), which was not designed to hold its weight. Fox moved the unit safely to the ground, and re-worked our entire A/C duct system to make it more efficient and save us money. They also handled our weatherization, which included removing the old attic insulation and blowing in new, better stuff, installing custom-fit solar screens all around the house, and taking care of all window and door drafts to make our little home air-tight. They also handled ALL the paperwork to ensure we got the maximum rebates from Austin Energy, and they did not charge us until after the energy inpection.

We received the same stellar service from Fox's electricians. They re-wired the garage and parts of the house to bring it up to code, and let us know which repairs were urgent, and what we could postpone until we could afford it.

The real upside of choosing a company that doesn't charge rock-bottom prices is that when they discovered unexpected problems (and there were many!), they didn't stop working to contact us and negotiate a few more dollars out of us. They just fixed the problem and kept right on working. Because we had a firm move-in date, they worked overtime for several days, including once until 2am! And then they actually apologized for working so late!

Our new-to-us little house got us through the Central Texas summer in comfort, thanks to Fox Service Company. We never turned off the A/C, but we still have lower-than-average electric bills, and we got a fat rebate check from Austin Energy on top of it all! We don't worry about finding more problems in our older house, because we know exactly who to call when we do.

We will be forever grateful to supervisor Brandon Robinson, weatherization techs Chris, Juan, and Roy, and installation technicians Miguel and Obidiah, as well as the electricians, Joshua and Cary. And we will definitely be using Fox Service Company when we're ready to do our renovations!

Terrible all the way around. They are not welcome back at my house. They did nothing right. They did a yearly inspection  on my AC and hot water heater which left me without a properly running AC and no hot water! I had to have another company come fix what they did! Unreliable and down right terrible!!!
