Best Businesses in Texas
Needed a backflow test done so I texted Lauren and she replied promptly with the price. After checking with a few other businesses, this was the best price so I texted back to move forward with the test. They emailed me an invoice, did the test the same day. They emailed once it was completed, I paid online and received a receipt and copy of the report. The entire process was excellent and convenient!

Bill is awesome. We had a 911 plumbing situation on THANKSGIVING day! He saved the day right before all the guests arrived. We greatly appreciate his prompt service!!!

So I just called based on a recommendation from a website. The woman answered the phone and I told her I needed an estimate. She said she would have to put me on a brief hold. I waited but the hold was NOT brief. Seven minutes later I disconnected.

This was our first time dealing with the Greenshire Handyman service and will definitely use them again. AJ was professional, knowledgeable, and patient with us on ensuring our projects would get completed as we expected. Additionally, he took the time to explain the entire scope of work and absolutely made sure we were happy with the final outcome. He even touched up some items that needed some attention. The customer service was pleasant and attentive to leaving our home as clean as possible. Great to have this business be local to us and will definitely use them again!

I hired Danny for a couple smaller projects: Replacing a sink and faucet, installing a backsplash, and installing a bathroom fan. He showed up on time, brought the necessary equipment, and started right into the projects. He completed the work within the estimated time with great workmanship. He clearly knows his stuff and I will be hiring him again.

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!!

Our water heater went out and we needed a replacement fast. Gabe was the first to reach out and offered to replace our unit the same day. His quote was very affordable compared with others that we received. His work is high quality and he made adjustments so if there is a need in the future repairs will be easier to perform. I highly recommend Gabe, and we now have a new plumber!
New Braunfels, TX 78130
Don't spend money advertising on the radio inviting me to come into your showroom for you to tell me about your Toto fixtures and then have a person just yell at me from an adjacent room with the prices. I expected someone to show me the fixtures and explain the different options and availability, like they did at your competitor's down the street. I was very surprised by the lack of service given the description in your radio ad.
515 Industrial Blvd, Austin, TX 78745
I highly recommend Highland Lakes Plumbing. Shannon did a great job on a difficult bathroom job. He is very fair priced and is a very hard worker and efficient with his time. I will definitely be hiring him for any other plumbing jobs.
103 County Rd 114, Burnet, TX 78611
Highly recommend! Very friendly, great customer service, and good prices. They do a good job (quick, honest, reliable, and on time). I've been happy with them helping me with my repairs and will continue to use their services.

No-call, no-show the night before Thanksgiving.
My appointment window was 3-5pm. I had some turkey prepping to do, and I needed my faucet to work.
I called the office at 4:45 because I sought an update on my plumber's ETA. The recorded message said that their offices closed at 4:30 and won't re-open until Monday (or was it Tuesday?) Now, I don't hold a nice long holiday weekend against anyone. But who am I supposed to call when my appointment window goes beyond your office hours? Your assigned plumber who had my work order could have at least called me. I do hope he is safe out there.
I gave two stars because your team may be truly wonderful, but I will never know.

I tried Chambliss after seeing a number of neighbors recommend them online. We had four bathroom sinks serviced. New P-Traps, new push pop-up drains, supply lines serviced, and tub drain serviced.
The initial call to the office was efficient, as was communication via email. The two-man crew showed up on the early end of the two-hour window, which was great. They were polite, professional, and the workmanship was impeccable.

Terrible! I had something serviced and the guy showed up huffing and puffing and cussing! They need to come out TWO times to give me a bid. Horrible customer service!! Don't use them
202 S CM Allen Pkwy, Ste 108, San Marcos, TX 78666
My experience with Dayton A/C & Heating was so terrible that I filed a complaint with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. The TDLR Enforcement Division considered the complaint significant enough to open an investigation (ACR20170023315). As of the writing of this review, the investigation is ongoing.
I filed the complaint with TDLR because, when I questioned the quality of Dayton's installation work in process, Dayton became hostile and threatened me. Also, I had the work inspected by several experts who said the work does not comply with standards, and it violates building code. Details are provided below.
During the first day of work, Dayton employees began installing the line sets for the proposed HVAC equipment. After that first day of work, they did not return for a week. During that time, I examined their work, and became concerned over quality. I called to voice my concerns, and Dayton employees became aggressive, including Winston Coy Dayton, the company owner (TACLB00010288E). When he threatened to put a lien on my home, I ended the call. Coy immediately sent me several texts that claimed: I have no legal position to defend myself; he owns a large company with many lawyers who have never lost a lawsuit; and I cannot have an inspection performed on the work so far. Ironically, he even accused me of being a bully.
In the days following, I had the work inspected by two inspection companies, the lead instructor at a local HVAC training and certification school, and a professional engineer. I also discussed the work with various individuals representing the manufacturer, relevant regulatory agencies, reputable HVAC service companies, and legal counsel.
Those who personally inspected the work onsite described it as unprofessional, poor workmanship, not educated, messy, and unskilled. In addition, numerous contractors for other trades were onsite for our renovation project, and they invariably said the work was terrible.
While the professional engineer was performing his inspection, he observed writing on the lines that was not relevant to this job, paint smears, along with the extensive damage. He wondered aloud whether these lines were not new but rather old material salvaged from a previous job.
The various experts made the following claims: the work was not performed in compliance with manufacturer specifications or industry best practices; the work commits numerous building code violations; if the installation were completed, the system will not operate properly, and the lines will leak condensation water inside the drywall, causing property damage and creating a health risk; the only viable correction to the installed line sets is to completely remove and replace them. Also, Dayton's planned method for installing drain lines would not comply with building code. In addition, the way Dayton chose to install their line sets makes installation for other components difficult to comply with building code, requiring more complex and expensive solutions.
After receiving written reports from the experts, I sent to Dayton a letter that contained a summary of events, photos of the work, and the 56-page report by the professional engineer, which referenced the other two inspection reports. I provided those documents to TDLR for the complaint process.
As suggested by my lawyer, I included with the letter a release that Dayton would sign to terminate the agreement and prevent him from harassing me further.
A couple of hours after receiving the letter with expert written reports, Dayton signed and returned the release. One of his employees then called to ask when Dayton could come over and show me how the lines were in fact NOT damaged, and when his personnel could come take down the lines so they would not be damaged.
Shocked at this outrageous behavior and anticipating that Dayton would treat other consumers so badly, and also fearing that Dayton would reuse these lines in yet another job, I filed the complaint with TDLR.
Note that this work was performed in The Hills, TX. Unlike Austin, The Hills does not require permits or inspections for this type of work. Coming from Austin, Dayton knew this and apparently took advantage of the situation by sending unqualified employees to do unacceptable work.

Very responsive to an appointment request and quickly got us an appointment for a replacement hot water heater. Will definitely use their office for any future plumbing needs.

I called Jon Wayne because my unit was not producing cool air in y home. i paid the technician $175.00+ and he did not do anything except for telling me I need a new unit. OK, great! But why take them money for no service provided. Maybe it is time to get a new unit, I asked the technician how much will it cost me to get duct work. He quoted me, over $10,000.00!!!!! The quote for a new unit, I think Carrier brand, at the low end $19,000.00, he sent me other quotes $30,000.00+. Seriously? I like in a high scale neighborhood and every time I request anything from yard work to plumbing issues, these companies tends to run up the price. How do I know? I own a home in a mid-low end neighborhood and the prices are night and day. Luckily I know how to install HAVC and was planning on doing the installation myself but just wanted to see companies trying to advantage of people. Please do your research on HAVC because for example American standard and Trane are from the company. After doing more research, majority of the A/C unit parts, replacement part are produce by one company. The working components of a A/C units are relatively the same. Only the price is different.

My upstairs neighbor's toilet leaked thru my bathroom ceiling. Jon was timely, fixed the leak and called another contractor who repaired my ceiling. Jon was professional, made it easy, did a great job and came back to make sure the ceiling repairs were completed and the bathroom was cleaned. I will definitely call him if I ever need more plumbing work.

BB Lewis came out over a month ago from American Home Shield to address sewage gas leaking under my sink, discolored hot water, and a leaky faucet. The man who arrived was very professional and pleasant and told me he would order parts and come back. Fast forward a month later and nobody at their company answers the phone or is able to return phone calls. I have called AHS 5 times, waited on hold for over 30 mins every time, and am hung up on when I am the next caller. I am now having to hire a plumber out of pocket, am out the $75 service charge even though they didn't do anything and I had to cancel my credit cards to stop payment to AHS since I couldn't even get someone from their company to answer the phone to cancel my contract. I feel like I've been scammed by both BB Lewis and AHS and will never do business with either again and plan to file a claim with the Better Business Bureau.

avoid l&m at all costs and tell everyone to do the same. i can say, without a doubt, that was one of the most horrible experiences of my life. never in my life have i worked with a team so completely unprofessional, no consideration for the customer, constantly shifting blame to the customer and the worst work ethic (or lack thereof rather) ever.
* lucy lies #1 and 2: work would take 2-3 weeks and that her workers would be sensitive to the fact that someone was living in the house while work was being done.
* lucy lie #3: saying i don't get the final check until you are satisfied twice to which we nodded and replied, okay.
* lucy lie #4: she listed the projects spread out over 3 phases showing work to be completed in 2 weeks (we BOTH have this written out).
* painting needed to be completed BEFORE carpet was put in, so the carpet installation had to be pushed back due to painting taking longer than expected.
* the day of carpet installation was a state holiday, so we were home. the painters arrived at 9am to finish up painting before carpet installer arrived at 10am. we pointed out all area of concern re: paint. they agreed that work needed to be done and seem to be rushing to complete it before carpet installation.
* although carpet was installed, we continued to see areas of concern re: the painting.
* on a DAILY basis, we marked areas of concern with blue painter's tape per lucy's instruction. this continued until the beginning of week 3 at which time lucy asked us to stop placing tape on the walls because it was taking off the paint. i then texted her photos of the areas of concern instead. that day, our blue painter's tape disappeared.
* areas of concern continued to be ignored, so i chose to work from home to PHYSICALLY point out areas of concern.
* lucy lie #5: she said the painters said they had been working at our house every day. i told her i worked from home 2 days and they in fact had not worked at all one of those days. her reply was, oh.
* horrible work ethic example: i'd estimate around 40-50% of the painter's time was spent on the phone; working 2.5 hours was considered a full day; the painter sent his WIFE and DAUGHTER to finish other painting tasks.
* i have photos of an exacto blade on the kitchen table; fast food cups left around the house; nails all over the floor of the garage (which we have to enter multiple times daily since it's been serving as our storage area and we've had to live out of boxes this entire time while they work); photos showing work areas ignore time and time again; the instance in which they placed 50-60 pounds of wooden and metal bunk bed parts against 2 pieces of art worth over $200,00 (this was another horrible story).
* in our countless walk-throughs, lucy never took notes. her replies would be verbal affirmations of uh huh. okay. yes. right. etc.
* lucy lie #6: when it came to painting the doors, the painters only painted the outside panel of the door; not the inside. i confirmed with lucy that they were in fact supposed to paint both sides of every door. she confirmed yes stating she'd let them know. when i asked the painter if lucy had told them they were to paint both sides of the doors, they replied no. we were just supposed to paint the outside. for confirmation i asked again. the painter replied that lucy had not told him to paint both sides. i told him what lucy had told us, to which he replied okay.
* after the first day of painting, i witnessed the painter's son place the shower curtain rod back on the wall that had been primed that day. i assumed there was some painting-professional reason for this and i didn't not question it as it's not my area of expertise. the next day, i saw that the curtain rod remained on the wall and they painted around it. i then removed the rod so that they could paint the entire area.
* lucy lie #7: she said they would remove switch plates and tape over hinges before painting. switch plates were not removed, but instead, being painted on around the edges. i then decided to remove the switch plates.
* lucy lie #8: she said window treatment hardware would be removed from the walls before painting began. i saw they were not removed before painting began, so we removed them from the entire house
* at one point they filled our trash and recycle bins completely leaving no room for us to dispose of our trash and recyclables.
