Best Businesses in Texas

Our last AC service was done by one of their technician, Chris Abad, and he's diagnosed the problem very quickly. In addition, he did a lot of extra maintenance work to make sure our AC is in good shape for the remainder of the summer. We were charged a very reasonable amount compared with other unscrupulous AC service company. Because of this, we subscribed to their routine AC maintenance schedules so we have peace of mind in the future. Based on our own personal experience, we highly recommend this company.

Needed a clogged kitchen sink dealt with.  Clog was in wall. Showed up and took care of the issue.

The most EXPENSIVE plumber in my experience in Austin. Raymond, the owner, installed a new water valve under my kitchen sink. It was a 30 minute visit and a $30 part. if I had known what the issue was beforehand I would have been able to get quotes ahead of time but I trusted Raymond to be fair based on the reviews here. I was charged an outrageous $430. I told him it seemed out of line but he did not budge. The receipt given to me after I paid him was not itemized and after making another request, Raymond refused to give me an itemized receipt. He refused to tell me his hourly rate. He refused to tell me the cost of the part. I called other plumbers for a quote after Raymond Davis left and both plumbers (highly regarded) told me it would be less than an hour at $160 plus $30-50 for the valve for a total of about $210 at most. I allowed myself to believe the positive google or yelp reviews told the whole story. They do not. I was charged more than DOUBLE what a normal master plumber would charge for a simple 15 minute task. He also told me a flush for my tankless heater would be $450, TRIPLE the standard cost. Again he was trying to take advantage of me hoping I would not know better. I have never paid more than $150 for that service and have had tankless heaters in multiple houses for the past 20 years. He refuses to make this right after multiple messages to him and hung up on me when I called him before writing this review. He has no business address and receives payments on his wife's personal Venmo account. He wore no mask and did not offer to wear one which is even more false advertising. The worst experience with any contractor I have had in the 30 years I have owned a home in Austin.

Wow! The guys are great!  Very responsive, fairly priced...will definitely use them again if needed!!

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.

Cody and Roger are a pleasure to deal with . Had an issue with my plumbing and within a blink of an eye, I was being taken care of. Cody asked the right questions and very customer focused.  Great service, great value.

We are in the process of selling our house in Cedar Park and needed work done around the house before listing it. Al and Sean went way above and beyond! They came in on time, did all the work. In fact, they quoted us half the price of another vendor to fix our fence. In the end, we needed a new garage door seal, which was hard to find. They made sure they got one. If you want great quality work to be done on time in a reasonable price, these are the guys to call. Thank you guys!

We had Proficient Plumbing do a large job, they connected our detached garage to the water main at our house.  It was about 300' away, they had to use a trenching machine and navigate the driveway and a stone wall.  They treated the job like they were working on their own house, they paid particular attention to ensuring that they didn't uproot any trees or damage our stone wall.  After the trenching was finished and they covered the trench you wouldn't even know they had been there.  They used quality materials and went one-step above and beyond by installing a tracer wire
- I was impressed.  They called me before they came out and immediately following the job to ensure that I was happy.   The staff were incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable - they will be my go to for any plumbing needs in the future.

I just used Christian to install a new kitchen faucet after having new counter-tops and sink installed, and he did a great job at a reasonable price.  He had to adjust the piping because the new sink was a different size, and he stayed until he got it just right.  I will definitely use him again.  I trust him.

They came 200 miles all the way from Bastrop at 5:30 pm. to fix a broken waterline on a holiday weekend. Keep in mind that they charged us $675.00 to replace this one pipe fitting after we had dug all the holes. On a lighter note you will receive a key chain with a bible quote about Jesus for free.

Ruben was employed to correct the installation of a new filler valve which I had attempted myself in an effort to save money. It took him an hour and he charged $162.50, no new parts were required. He gave me a 90 day warranty. Before he left I noticed there was leaking from the tank and he told me I needed a new flapper. He said he could get one but there would be an additinal charge for his time so recommended I get one from Home Depot and install it myself which with some difficulty I did. Later that evening the toilet was running constantly. I called the following morning and he returned to adjust the filler valve.
Two weeks later the toilet was difficult to flush and eventually could not be flushed at all. The toilet was intermittently running. He sent his young apprentice whose fix lasted 24 hours.
I called again and was told the toilet needed to be rebuilt which would involve further expense. When I asked about the 90 day warranty he belligerently told me that he couldn't keep making warranty calls and suggested I find another plumber if that solution was unacceptable. He seemed irritated by my calls and it obviously never occurred to him that I wouldn't need to keep calling if the toilet had been fixed properly in the first place.
I employed and paid this man in good faith and expect him to honor the warranty he issued.
His warranty is obviously not worth the paper on which it is written and he's unwilling to honor it since warranty calls do not generate further remuneration.
Buyer Beware!

Avery Handyman (Lewis) is my go to handyman. We've used him for indoor & outdoor electrical work, gutter removal, blind installation and more. Excellent work and all very professionally handled. We've also found his estimates to be fair & better than what we were expecting.

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.

I will never use another plumber!  Wayne is the best, and his wife that does all the behind the scenes!  I am the girl that calls 10 people to get prices before I commit, and I don't believe I will ever have to do that again in the plumbing department.  These guys gave us a great deal on a MAJOR remodel job, and were professional, courteous and very punctual!

We really appreciate Donald and crew. He was able to pencil us in  quickly to look at a potential problem with the gas line into our HVAC unit. He tracked down the problem quickly and even called our HVAC company to tell them what parts they needed to replace. Very thankful for Donald and will be calling them for our plumbing needs in the future.

I had their plumber come out last time to connect the refrigerator with the ice-maker that was inside the cabinet. I told him to completely replace the old ice-maker valve with it's frame and purchased new valve. He gave me an estimate of approximately $500.00 and I thought it was very expensive but I agreed as long as the work will be done properly. He rescheduled to get the materials for the job. He came out the following week and all he did was connect the refrigerator with the same old valve. I have no idea why they had to cut off the water source from the house. All they had to do is move the refrigerator for a distance not more than 12 ft, which is not bad because it's easy to push it. I pushed it myself out of the cabinet after they left to clean behind it. Yet, they emptied my groceries from inside the fridge in a dirty box that I had left in the room! Before they left, I thought he replaced the valve inside the cabinet because the box of the new valve from HomeDepot was open.
I paid around $500 to him thinking he did what I asked, and I got busy cleaning the grocery before I place them back in the fridge. I was about to throw away the box of the new valve and noticed that the new valve is still inside it and checked the cabinet to see that the old dirty valve wasn't replaced. I felt cheated for paying $500 and called them immediately, he called me back and said he can't replace the valve because he has to tear down the wall and the cabinet all around it! I wasn't convinced and insisted that I need this old valve to be replaced per our agreement. He claimed that the old valve seems like new and was never used when I know for a fact that it was used for over 10 years. In any case, he said he will come back next day to try and see if he can replace it. He came the next morning to repeat what he told me over the phone and that the old one is a better quality than the one I purchased. I asked him if the $500 is just to connect the refrigerator with the ice maker through a hose!!!! It's a job that shouldn't take over an hour!! I could've done that myself, it's not that hard to find a hose with the right fitting!!! I felt he underestimated me by claiming he had to get the right supplies and do the work. To me this is a joke, yes I'm a woman but that doesn't mean I'm clueless when it comes to plumbing work.
So in conclusion, I paid approx. $500 for connecting the refrigerator with the ice-maker through a hose. A lawyer or a doctor don't even charge this much money per hour! My cousin with some plumbing experience came for a visit two weeks ago and was able to replace the valve with it's frame without tearing the wall and the cabinet. I later called Neighborhood plumbing to get a refund 5 days ago and I'm still waiting. I'm willing to give them back whatever they supplied me, including the hose that is too long inside my cabinet and I replaced it anyway with shorter hose.

Chris came out to our home for a hot water heater, this guy was honest, up front, and reasonable.  It was a pleasure doing business with him.  I had to go out of network from my home warranty because they could not find someone to service my area, and they one they had sent to us was way over priced, and not very friendly, flat out rude.   I read the review on Chris and decided he was the one for the job.  It was funny the difference in prices between him and the previous person who came out.  He explained the work, why I needed certainly things, and his pricing was fair and reasonable.  They did a good job, and I would highly recommend him, sometimes he is hard to reach because he is working with his apprentice.  Be patient leave a message and he will get back to you.  Thanks Chris and Meadows Plumbing a pleasure doing business with you.

Friendly and courteous..  Took the time on the phone to understand my problem and set expectations..  Showed up on time, and completed the job per expectations.  I highly recommend and will call Aloha again.

Our experience with Fox has been nothing short of outstanding every time we call.  The professionalism of their team is without equal.  They are not going to cut corners -- ever!  And while I read comments about cost in these reviews, the reality is that there are plenty of low quality cheap companies out there.  But when it comes to the systems in your home, your best bet for value is Fox.  My A/C went out on Saturday morning, and Fox had someone there within just a few hours.  With a 17 year old system I elected to replace it.  Their sales consultant, Mark,  was there on Monday, and the new system was completely up and running by Tuesday evening.  The installation team, led by Rodney, was respectful, diligent, and stayed until the job was done right.  Finally I have to add that not only did they leave the work area in our house cleaner than they found it, they picked up the dog poop around the work area in the back yard just to make sure they did not track it into the house -- SERIOUSLY, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!  I am a Fox fan, and highly recommend them to fellow Yelpers!

My garbage disposal was leaking and stopped working so I checked Yelp to find a plumber who was recommended on Yelp.  Called around 5:30 PM to inquire when they could replace the unit and they offered to come between 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM and they carry two models on the truck - a lower cost unit and a high end stainless steel unit - I told him I want the stainless steel unit.  Quoted installed prices on the phone so no surprises.  Came, took out the old unit, fixed a blocked line to my ice maker (no charge), and replaced the unit and was finished by 8:00 PM.

This wasn't an emergency but they still came immediately when it could have waited.  

I would use them again - I got the plumbers card with his direct number.
