Best Businesses in Texas

Very impressed at the knowledge and corrections made to my irrigation system. Thank you so much

The owner of this business is giving himself five star reviews, competitors one star reviews, and threatening lawsuits when he receives reviews he does not like. He's also attempting to circumvent Yelp's block feature by sending me argumentative compliments because I told him I would not be a party to a conversation online with someone threatening frivolous lawsuits. He seems to be a paranoid delusional, or, at the very least, has the constitution and maturity of a seven year-old-boy given his reaction (threatening me with a lawsuit) over a 3-star review. My opinion, of course, but he may be dangerous to others.

All this because I gave him a 3-star review with several concerns about the quality of their customer service and the level of professionalism (or lack of professionalism) one must have to leave one star reviews on all of his competitors pages (search Yelp for A&V Plumbing Bell Plumbing Rubio Septic, etc. Search Google for others.

I have used this company for over 30 years.  They are reliable and friendly and do great work!  Allison is very fun to talk with and gets the job set up easily.  The work is good and I trust them to come in my house when I'm out on an errand.  They may seem a bit high, but I figure so is everyone else.  Quality is worth paying for.  All in all, they rock!

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!

Danny was wonderful! He answered my call right away, went to fix what I needed the same day and gave a good quote. There were a couple additional fixes that I needed the following day that he also jumped on quickly. Very nice, very reasonable, very professional. I'd highly recommend him!!!

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!

It's going to happen to you eventually--you're going to have a problem with your plumbing. And guess what? If you're trying to DIY the problem (like me), Lowe's, Home Depot, or any of those other big-box, home improvement stores WON'T always have the part you're looking for.

Josco Plumbing Supply is one of many parts supply shops wedged on to the dusty, and always busy, Industrial Blvd in South Austin. Did I mention they're small? If you're driving by and you blink, you'll miss it.

Don't let that sweat you, though. When I walked in to the store, with only a picture of the part (an American Standard faucet stem) on my cell phone, an employee quickly replied That's American Standard...Yeah, we have that.

All the parts on my list? They had them. Silicone grease? Got it. Extra washers? Done. Everything was competitively priced, too. The entire process only took a couple of minutes and couldn't have been easier.

I hope to never use them again (because that means I'll be fixing something else!), but knowing that I will, it's good to know a place like Josco Plumbing Supply exists.

Excellent service and detailed work.  Shannon was ready and willing to help us with our clogged system on a Saturday morning, which we appreciated very much!

Very experienced and attentive to all details at our brand new house.

Highly recommended for all plumbing services!  Six Stars

I've had Martin out to my house twice to repair plumbing issues. We installed my new faucet and replaced my water heater. He is courteous, prompt and honest. I highly recommend Blue Lion plumbing for home repairs.

I needed some my modifications done to my home propane gas lines.  My propane company suggested Ken Dixon.  I called for an appointment and was given a time.  The plumber arrived on time.  He was masked and was careful to maintain social distance.  He was professional and courteous.  I was unsure about the modification I wanted so I asked his opinion and he offered me a simple but effective solution.  He and his helper completed the job in less than 30 minutes and it looked great and worked exactly as I wanted.  The price was about half what I expected to pay.  To be honest, I don't know how a company could have performed any better.

Very disappointed in Chambliss.  I have used them on a few different jobs and have found that they are 1 very expensive and 2 do shotty work.  Most recently I had a big leak in a yard faucet I had them install in my front yard.  The work cost a little over $500 and looked very make shift.  They had two steel stakes (different sizes) with very sharp edges sticking out of the ground and then taped the pipe to the stake.  The tops of the stakes were very sharp and definitely a safety hazard and the pipe was not secure at all.  Again, this looked very make shift and not a professional job.  Fast forward 1 year and there is water leaking all over the yard from this faucet.  I contacted Chambliss to see if this would be covered under any type of warranty and it is not.  They told me they would send someone over to take a look at the job and no one ever showed up.  I just had another plumber go out and repair the job at a cost of $232 and plumber showed me that this was due to shotty work.  very disappointed here

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

Find a local company not reliably at all. Told me three days straight I had an appt and sent me messages a tech was on the way never came . Just find local

Well I got the number through a friend of mine, which is a good way to get a skilled professional when something is beyond me or it's cheaper for me to higher out because I don't have time. This was an instance of both. I had changed out the thermopile assembly, checked the thermal switch, and tested the valves and found the pilot valve not clicking, leading me to believe the gas control needed to be replaced. I called Radiant who could book until November then got these guys number. I called on a Tuesday and I explained everything to the call taker hoping to give enough information for a plumber to either call me or have an idea what the issue was before coming to minimize time for getting parts, because we were already on day 4 of cold showers. She set up an appointment for Thursday. Thursday comes and 2 plumbers show up, I take them upstairs and ask if they had gotten the jnfo I gave. Nope. Nothing was on the ticket. Nothing. This visit was their assessment. Guess what. He concluded the gas control valve and that I needed a new door gasket, which I also knew and had ordered the previous Friday from Morrisons when I bought the thermopile assembly. He said he would need to order the part or see if they had it and he would call me later in the day. Friday morning rolls around (no call Thursday) and I get a call from another employee who says they have my gas control at just over $350 and $200 in labor. I ask him if that includes the door gasket. He asks me, what are you talking about? Briefly explain that the water heater needs that gasket to operate safely. We go back and forth for about a minute and he says he will call me back. So he calls back and says, that part only comes on a burner assembly and that's gonna run $177, plumbers price from Morrisons. I tell him that I already ordered the part, $77 from the same Morrison's, and I'll call about the part. He says, ok, ill put your name on the part and to call him when I was ready for the job to get done. Well guess what- it's now Friday afternoon and it won't be till Monday when these guys will come out again. My issues: 1) my info didn't get passed on, which MAY have mitigated having to find parts on Thursday afternoon. 2) not getting a call back on Thursday about the part 3) a whole different employee calling me and what I perceive as trying to up ahead me a part assembly I may not need and then 4) trying to make my water heater sound like it needed replacing you've already replaced the termipile, now the gas valve and gasket,  well...its your money you might want to get a new water heater. OH and 5) I was so turned off by the experience and wanted to get my kids hot water for showering, that I went upstairs to inspect and get measurements so I could do the work myself (I know stuff, but just don't have time) but my simple inspection found a corroding and sweating hot water pressure pipe coming off the top of the water heater! This was the only reason why I opted not to do the job myself was that pipe. So yeah, were they prompt, sure.  But I was not happy with the rest of the experience.

We've used Jon Wayne for years and have always been satisfied.

Horrible service. This guy is the rudest man I have ever spoke with. How can you run a business and talk to someone like that? I feel I should warn people not to use big John plumbing service. I filed a HUGE complaint with my home warranty company and they said I wasn't the only one. Wish I could give 0 stars.

B.B. Lewis was referred to our plumbing job by American Home Shield (AHS) and arrived within the time frame that they indicated.  The boss stayed in the truck and we never met him.  The individual that came in was very kind and well meaning and replaced the garbage disposal in an attempt to stop the leak under the sink and ran a snake to eliminate the drain clog. He then ran the water and the leak seemed to stop but after they left the leak returned and the sewage line remained blocked when we attempted to drain water from the washing machine.  When we called AHS to tell them of the problem, we received a voicemail from B.B. Lewis Plumbing but were not impressed by their service.  We cannot get AHS to send a different plumbing company to do the job so we will call another plumbing company of our choice without contacting AHS so we do not have to depend on an AHS contractor.  Our mistake this time so shame on me but AHS was not very credible in the way that they responded to our request in this situation.

After dealing with Lucy Moreno and her business I think I have a pretty good idea of what it is like to go through a terrible divorce: I trusted the wrong person who repeatedly broke their promises to me and ultimately I spent a lot of money and needed legal counsel to make an awful person leave my life while praying they don't destroy my house in the process.
I contracted with this business to remodel my kitchen. In the beginning the initial project manager (Tom Estes) warned me that I would have to get tough with Lucy and basically kiss her butt if I was going to get her to perform all the stuff she promised to do. That was insane to me, I was baffled that her own sub was undermining his boss, and I shouldn't have to get tough with anyone who I was paying to provide services they enthusiastically agreed to do.  Tom also said that the comment Lucy hears most often from her clients is You lied to me! Lucy assured me that there would be no cost overruns, they wouldn't do anything we didn't agree to do in writing, I'd be happy with their quality work, etc.  
It turns out this business wrote the book on dirty contractor tricks. Every other day I was getting messages that work was cancelled and they'd have to start up another day. My favorite excuse was that when work couldn't start on a Monday for whatever reason, she claimed that it was easier to work a full five day week then to get started mid-week and only work a couple of days in a row so progress was pushed off until the following Monday. Sure, her crew totally isn't sitting around not making any money on another smaller project she didn't want to turn down in favor of my project because working a 3 or 4 day week is so complicated.
Even though our contract was fixed-price Lucy constantly hit me up for the cost of items she either forgot to include in the price or she didn't want to pay for.  Seemed like it was always a pushy, high-pressure sell to get me to agree to something now now now, the guy is here he can do it or he'll have to come back later type of thing. I always said no, and when I'd ask her why she doesn't think the contract means she has to cover it she'd throw up her hands and say hey, I won't  fight you on this one. I didn't want to fight either, I just wanted my contractor to do what they said they would do!
When I found substandard work in progress and complained I was told to relax and stop bringing these things to her attention because they're not finished and there's nothing to worry about. When I called her attention to inferior work upon completion I was blamed for not catching the poor quality work in progress and directing the sub to fix it (which under agreement I could not even do, the homeowner cannot direct subs). Everything was blame the homeowner, including the fact that I was trying to turn an old carport into a kitchen, something that was abundantly clear to this business when they bid on the project.
The previous reviewer totally nailed it: Lucy is a bully, and with a volatile combination of arrogance and stubbornness to the point of being surreal.  While standing in my kitchen as her subs ripped up parts of my new wood floor to redo it for the second time (and only after bitter complaining on my part) she refused to acknowledge that there had been any problems on my job and that we do quality work, we get nothing but compliments. Say what?!?  I had to hear that's the best that can be done until I argued, and argued, and argued, and argued to get things fixed. The project suffered from lack of oversight and management, with Lucy and much of her subs apparently incapable of applying logic or common sense to the work.  I spent more than one evening surveying what was supposed to be my fabulous new kitchen completely in tears trying to comprehend the insane mind that could think this kind of work was acceptable.  I must admit that a couple of her subs were honest, hardworking guys who obviously cared more about quality and customer service than Lucy did.
When the project failed to pass the electrical inspection Lucy doubled-down and refused to do any more work until I gave her the final payment, which clearly is not due by contract until all the work is done and the liabilities are cleared.  Lucy literally stated she did not care about the terms of our contract, she just wanted to be paid (greatest email ever, got it in writing, thank you!). Never mind the fact that it didn't pass the city inspection or that a sub (who had been fired early in the project before demo even started) had attempted to file an invalid lien on my property. She makes up the rules as she goes along and I don't think she ever even actually read the contract that we signed.  Her work ethic reminds me of a drug-addict: lie and do whatever it takes to get the money and always deny any problems exist.
