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!

This is the best plumbing company we have ever used, they are quick and responsive. I called them and they were at my front door ready to fix my plumbing problem in less than a hour.
 Pair Plumbing  & Septic not only provide great service they also provide great pricing and friendly staff. I have never had such a great experience with a plumbing company.. I will highly recommend this company to anyone that needs plumbing and septic work done. You guys are awesome, thanks again!!

This is the second time we've used The Plumber. The first experience was excellent. We needed to have a shower re-piped for a remodel, they were quick to respond, provided a VERY competitive quote and showed up when they said they would. The workmanship was excellent. When our next plumbing need came up, this was our first call.  Again, they provided a quick and competitive quote, we got the work scheduled and they showed up exactly when they said they would and did another excellent job.  I highly recommend The Plumber, from a cost perspective, they have some of the most competitive rates I've seen, they do what they say they will do and the quality of work has been great. Always a positive experience working with these folks!

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 initially tried contacting A List Handyman via email about an issue I'm having at my house. I never received a response. I figured maybe it was just missed, and I contacted him instead through Yelp. He responded with a quote and that he was booked for the next two weeks. We made an appointment for him to come check out my issue after that two week period was up. He was a no-show for our agreed-upon time.

I do not recommend this company. Find someone who will actually respond and show up.

Ruben is our friendly neighborhood plumber. Over the years, he has helped us replace toilets, repair toilets, replace entire plumbing lines, install water heaters - you name it! Ruben charges a fair price (and sometimes hasn't charged us at all for repairs) and does excellent work.

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!

Love, love, love this place! As a contractor, I stand in line all over town, trying to find parts for random things. I went to a competitor and stood there for 20 minutes, for them to hem and haw about why they couldn't match it to the broken part in my hand. Yes, I know it's broken, that's why they need a new one....and yes, I am a female GC, so I also got the little lady attitude. No, I don't know the brand. Here is the part. Clearly has nothing written on it. You are a parts house, that's why I came here.

They referred me to Josco. They will be sorry they did, as I will not shop anywhere else for my plumbing supplies. Walked in, showed him the parts, he walked over and grabbed them off the shelf, and I paid - in under five minutes. And he was checking someone else out when I got there.

My only concern about writing this review? That the secret will be out.... Josco is the only place to go for plumbing supplies in Austin.

We asked for help with some stuff that we just couldn't fix on our own.
Came out when he said he would, was right on time.  Professional and courteous gentleman.  Helped us get our water system back on line after some serious freeze damage from URI 2021.  He knows how to fix stuff.  We would use his services again if needed.

BEST PLUMBER IN THE FREAKING WORLD!!!!! Highly recommend!!!! LOWEST PRICE of any other plumber!!!!! If you have a quote from another plumber, I would recommend you call Blue Lion Plumbing before you get the work done!!!!
I went without water for almost 2 weeks (due to a slab leak) and had 2 other plumbers come out prior to Blue Lion Plumbing. I was about to get a loan for $10,000.00 to re-pipe my whole house, since the plumbers had told me that they were going to need to do a partial re-pipe which was going to be almost half of the price of the whole downstairs re-pipe. I decided to just get a loan and be done with the problem, but my husband had been given a glowing reference by one of his customers for Blue Lion Plumbing. She told my husband that the plumber did a great job and he had been able to complete the job for her plumbing at around half the price of other plumbers! We decided to go ahead and try one more plumber before getting that loan and I'm so glad we did!!!!!! Martin Rich came out the next day (since I work from home I scheduled with him to come by any time he could the next day- if he could squeeze us in). He looked at the property and just started digging. He found the leak (it was at the edge of the slab) and was able to fix it the same day!!!!! Then came the bill...
The LOWEST plumbing bill I have ever paid (and I've had quite a few)!!! It ended up costing less than the cost of American Leak Detection (who wasn't able to schedule me for over 2 weeks)!!!!!! He did an amazing job and he did the job for the most unbelievable price!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU BLUE LION PLUMBING!!!!!!!!

This company was great. Fast, honest, and resonable. I had to have my water turned off as water was coming out the over flow valve,, yesterday. Another company told me it was the high pressure valve.. 650. This company did it all for 168. I will feel confident calling them out again. Thank you for not hearing a female voice on the other end of the phone and trying to rip me off. I appreciate your professional company.

Ugh, Water heater giving us issues.  Momma likes her hot water bath so what Momma wants Momma gets.  The wife had been complaining for a month or more about our hot water.  There wasn't enough for both of us in the morning and it was taking a very long time to reheat.  I assumed one of the elements had gone out.  I called Chambliss and they got me on their schedule.  Joe and Jesse arrived as planned and got right to work.  Joe was excellent in explaining things.  They were prepared for any situation that might arise, i.e. not meeting code and the upgrades that may be required.  Since it was an older water heater I decided the best route was jsut to replace the water heater instead of the element.  They got it all done in record time and now Momma is a happy bather with her hot water.  Thanks Chambliss, Joe and Jesse.

Showed up right on time, courteous and efficient service and although the part I needed was not in stock they made sure everything was put back together so I'd have water and service while the part is on order.

What more could you ask?

Highly recommended.

We had a clog in our sink that a plumber came out and fixed. Then, a couple days later water went through a wall when we ran the washing machine. I called and they told me a plumber would be out at 7:30 the next morning. He didn't end up coming until 9:30. We were told a specific time and the plumber had been told a time range. He fixed the problem and we were not charged another fee. Everyone was very nice!

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.

Bought new ac unit in February of 2020 and have had to replace thermostat they installed and twice my ac has gone out where it doesn't cool down anymore. Today guess what my ac went out again. John Wayne services thinks I'm going to be paying for a lemon they sold me I don't think so. Then they try to go get u on a monthly service plan, this ac is not even 2 years old why would it be breaking down constantly. Overall I dont recommend this company.

I have a contract with a homeowners warranty co. for my rental property.  Therefore,when I have an issue with repairs, I contact the warranty co. and they send me the repairman,with no input from me as to whom they are sending.  I had not heard of  Big Jon Plumbing,and I am in the Austin area.
First of all they got my call for service around 10am,and they promised to be there around noon. They showed up around 12:15 and got to work.

They were courteous,timely and efficient,and took care of the problem quickly,and I can rest easy knowing everything was done professionally.

I think they said they were based in Kyle,but service the Austin area also.

I really wish I could give zero stars. The amount of wasted time and sheer BS is simply too much to even convey in a Yelp review, but suffice to say this has been one of the WORST experiences. They do not return phone calls, they do not show up on time, they do not actually DO anything (they came to my house 3 times, each time just shining a flashlight around- and never so much as diagnosed the problem). Why AHS continues to waste their (and their customers') money on this company is beyond me. I have spent 6 weeks going round and round with BB Lewis and AHS without so much as a diagnosis of what is even wrong, all while the leak in my home is causing more and more damage. Today, I am finally saying screw it I'm hiring my own dang plumber- one that is reputable and can actually perform real work.

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.
