Best Businesses in San Antonio, TX

Ralph and his associate were outstanding! they were able to come by the same day i called about slow draining tubs. They were punctual, professional, experienced and highly skilled!

Super friendly and responsive.  All prices quoted up front and transparent.  Honestly, I felt like i was dealing with a family member or a friend.

This small upstart company replied quickly. When they arrived they acted courteous and professional.  They evaluated the issue and gave me the best possible recommendation.  I had initially asked for a more expensive solution, and they were honest and knowledgeable, if I ever have issues again i will make sure that they are the primary candidate. I recommend them 100%.

Having recently purchased a home in SA, I was given Blue Lion's contact information by a renovator working next door to my Sister's home.  My primary concern was addressing those plumbing issues which had been documented in the inspection report I had done prior to house purchase.  Heather scheduled an appointment for an estimate shortly after my call.  Martin arrived, reviewed the inspection report and then confirmed required work by checking out the crawl space himself.  I also mentioned to him that I wanted to replace both toilets with new.  He quoted a price for the work and scheduled me for the following week.  He arrived on time, quickly addressed and repaired the crawl space issues and, in so doing, identified additional problems which the inspector had not because the inspector did not access the crawl space under the deck adjacent to the house.  The leak from the kitchen drain/main bath sink drain was leaking badly.  Martin opened the wall under the kitchen sink to discover some nasty do-it-yourself mess which included multiple plastic bags! Martin replaced that mess with new pipe.  He then pulled the first toilet to begin replacement with the new, only to discover serious issues with the lead drainage line.  I saw it.  It was ugly.  He told me what would be required to do the job correctly, but he did not have the necessary parts and would need to schedule another appointment.  What he charged for the work completed that day was LESS than his original quote even though the kitchen sink issue had NOT been part of the inspection report!  To make a long story somewhat shorter, when he returned a couple days later as promised, both toilets had problems which required work WAY beyond pulling and replacing.  I told him I wanted the work done right, not quick.  

It took much longer than anticipated to complete the replacement of the two toilets, but I have the satisfaction of knowing that the work was done correctly.  And that is precisely what makes Martin and Blue Lion Plumbing a 5 star business:  the work was completed on time, professionally and courteously and I don't have to worry about plumbing problems going forward.  In a previous life I had gutted and renovated three homes and, based on that experience, Blue Lion was INCREDIBLY reasonably priced.  Would I recommend?  Well, this week Martin completed a number of projects at my Sister's house and she has shared his name on a neighborhood review site.  YES!  Thank you Martin, William and Heather!

June 11, 2014.  I called Brad in the morning to make an appointment.  He was here promptly when he said he was going to be.  He called me to let me know he was on his way.  He works clean and efficient.  He is VERY honest.  I purchased a faucet he said he does not install because they are of very bad quality.  He said he would not take the job if I insisted.  Amazing!  For once, an honest guy.  I purchased another one, he installed and it works great.  He is very efficient, just because he charges by the hour doesn't mean he waste time.  He installed a sink, faucet, and shower head in a little over 1 hour.  QUALITY WORK.  He takes his time in cleaning old tape, caulking, and where it matters.  I could not be more happy with the work.  This guy is a gem.  I will use him moving forward on anything.  Honest, dependable, affordable, prompt, efficient and just a plain good guy!

Moved into older house that we knew needed wtr htr replaced.  The sticker on it said 1991.  This is 2022.  R u serious???  Just didnt know how fast we needed it.  It started leaking but probly had been like that for awhile unbeknownst to us.  Thats an emergency!  I contacted PlumbSmart, spoke to Ebony who took down all my information and said would have someone contact me soon.  Ebony was friendly, pleasant and professional.  Probly like in minutes, Cody contacted me, gave me a quote which I thought was reasonable.  He was even able to get someone out there the same day.  Sent me Ryan.  He was all business, professional, friendly, efficient.  New wtr heater is now installed and code compliant-has water pan and expansion can.  So glad I found PlumbSmart.  Will def call them for anything plumbing.  Totally recommend them.  You wont be sorry.

Very professional and completed job fast. I've delt with various other plumbing companies who over charge you, not with BG. Highly recommend them and their services.

Great service & extremely quick response!  My realtor recommended this company to me, and I am happy to share positive feedback about my experience with People's Choice Plumbing!

Dave, our technician, contradicted what other plumbers were advising and saved us from having to shell out $2,500 - $3,000 for a new system. He was able to repair the existing water softener which was already 11 years old, and give us another 5+ years on life. He finished the process in under two hours and was very knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend this firm.

They have a great team and system going. I appreciate the texts they sent with instructions for covid procedures and I always appreciate it when they send a photo of the technician so I know who to expect. I ended up not having a plumbing issue and they actually lead me towards the right direction. Great going y'all! Thanks for your excellent service

We first met Jaime about 8 years ago when he was hired by our contractor to do the plumbing for a new addition on our central Austin home.  He did all the work for a new master bath, added a tankless water heater and removed old cast iron plumbing from our 1940s home.  Two years later he came back to reroute the plumbing in our guest bath.  He did great work with both jobs and we never had any issues while we lived there.

In 2019, I referred him to a friend who was experiencing a plumbing emergency at his rental.  My friend was super impressed with Jaime's responsiveness and work and was incredibly thankful to have found an honest, trustworthy plumber to help out during an incredibly stressful time.

And in February 2021, we had a pipe break in our new home after the major freeze.  We were panicked that we wouldn't be able to get it fixed timely since it seemed like everyone else in Austin was dealing with the same issue, but Jaime came to the rescue the next day and fixed the busted pipe.

In the 8 years we have called on Jaime, every single experience was top notch. I don't know what I appreciate the most about him: his professionalism, the prompt communication, the excellent work or how wonderfully nice and pleasant he is. The fact that we have been able to call on him to work on every single home we have owned in Austin really speaks volumes about the quality of his business and his work.  Thank you, Jaime, for always being there for us when we need you. You are the best!!!

$125/hr and his people had to come back to redo their leaky work the next day. I'm used to paying half that and getting one guy who knows what he's doing, not 3-4 guys spending a long time hanging around to do something simple.

I've had Gilbert out to our home twice in the last few years and both times had a stellar experience. He's prompt, courteous, a good communicator. Fast and efficient and willing to tell you if you don't need a particular service done. I feel extremely confident that I'm getting great service from Gilbert. He's my plumber until he retires or I die!!

These guys are awesome! Came over with no issues to inspect my system and pointed out CO2 problem & were able to fix the system same day! Great service, great customer service, and great value! Noel & Jesse were professional, quick, and clean. Answered all my questions and were very knowledgeable about the HVAC system and explained why there was a problem & what it took to fix it. Very transparent about what they were suggesting and why. Recommend services!

Andrew, from Mr. Rooter, was awesome! It wasn't my property, but I manage the maintenance for it. He called the tenant beforehand, then called me when he arrived and told me the total price. After accepted, he immediately started working on it. We had the kitchen faucet leaking a bunch of water. After he finished, voilá! No more leaking. If you request services from Mr. Rooter, ask them to send Andrew.

The 4 stars are because I found it a bit pricey (almost $400), but the service was good, quick, and reliable.

Guarantee Plumbing arrived an hour late to the appointment my wife scheduled days in advance.  The plumber did not apologize or acknowledge he was late.  I showed him the drain that was clogged, it was a simple clog and the only reason we hired a plumber was to save us a trip to home depot to buy a $26.91 pipe snake router (already ruined by Guarantee Plumbing being an hour late).  This appointment was originally supposed to be a Free Estimate.  After Guarantee's employee went to the laundry room to the clogged drain, he asked, Do you want the free estimate, or do you want me to just take care of it?  This is where I made my mistake, I said, I would like for you to just take care of it, knowing all the steps he had to take to unclog this drain.  Expectedly, he finished the job within 15 minutes using his pipe snake router attachment to his power drill.  I said Thank you for the help.  He then went off to take care of the invoice.  When he got back he gave me the invoice for $218.00.  This was simply ridiculous.  There was a $25 trip fee that didn't make much sense since it as a free estimation to begin with but, whatever, he did service the drain, that's fine.  Then, there was the $193 drain clog removal fee.  For 15 minutes of work and after being unapologetically late I paid Guarantee Plumbing $772 an hour.  I understand that it was my mistake to ask him to Go ahead and take care of it, but an honest company would see that their invoice was WAY off base, and in order to keep their clientele, change the invoice to something a little more reasonable.  In the end they did refund $50 making my payment $573.00 an hour, which is still outrageous.  I guarantee I will never use this company again, and I would not recommend them to anyone.   After all this they called me and accused me of not paying my bill, I read them my receipt and explained to them that this was a clerical error on their part.  This has been a nightmare.

Fast service, plumber was here within 30 to 45 minutes, showed us the problem, worked on the leak and called us outside again to show us what he had done.  Fast, courteous Jose was our Plummer.  Will recommend them!!!!!  Thank you Mr. Jose

I needed a quote for a sewer line to be fixed. They came out that day and suggested SAWS might be responsible for fixing my problem. He still took the time and gave me a quote. Turns out SAWS was responsible for fixing my issue. I was very grateful for his suggestion even though he knew he might not get my business. Will use in the future and highly recommend.

Electrician Andrew Casiano and his assistant (I didn't get his name) did a very good job installing the lights and making sure everything worked fine.  My mother liked the new lights as well.

thanks!

They quoted my plumbing to be $3000 for 40ft of pipe work to be done and they only did 5 feet of pipe and my wife didn't check because we have a baby and I was at work so they made her sign without telling her they changed the plan, and still charged us $3000. Watch out for these scammers
They charged me for 35 ft and only did 5ft of pipe, I did not get my money back.
