Best Businesses in San Antonio, TX

Although this business is owned by family (my son in law's dad), I can speak to the service because I've used them 3 times and have several family members of my own that have used them as well.

PROS:

Their rates are reasonable. They literally have saved us thousands by completing jobs that others would have overcharged. One job we had quoted by another company and were able to really SEE the difference in price.

They do EVERYTHING with integrity as it is ingrained in who they are. That means if there's a more affordable way to do something, they'll tell you. It also means they can be trusted in your home and also trusted to do the job right and not cut corners.

They're professional and respectful of your home or business. Some service pros make a MESS in your home, overstep boundaries, talk or cuss on phone, etc. Not so with these guys, it's not their manner.

They're super knowledgeable and have been in business for decades. Karl is a LICENSED Master Plumber. For example, we had a shower that needed repair. Another company told us we'd have to tear out the wall and remove/replace shower doors to fix. Rutkowski plumbing ordered a cartridge and it was a simple fix.

CONS: They aren't super techy. They're traditional, so you'll get a phone call, a handshake and eye contact. Not really much of a con and rather nice.

If you're looking for a fast response, honesty, integrity and affordable rates, definitely give them a call!!

Jeff is awesome!!! Our water heater died!!! I sent him the pictures. Jeff was patient as we were working with the insurance company and a warranty company. Finally just working with Jeff and the insurance company!!! His quote was very reasonable seeing that he had to bring everything up to code. That evening he texted me to make sure everything was okay. We have a new plumber!!

We discovered what looked like a foundation leak on Mon. morning.  It was fixed by Mon. evening, without an after hours upcharge!  Mr. Mitchell made the time to come out within a few hours of calling, and quickly assessed the issue.  He quoted a fair estimate, sent two very nice and capable young men to make repairs.  Within a span of a few hours, all work was professionally done, and they even cleaned up after themselves.  It's not often you hear people talk about integrity, and doing the right thing by charging a pair price while they provide great service.  You will if you hire Mr. Mitchell & crew.  He is the needle in the haystack.

I never write reviews,  but with service like this, I had to!  After attempting to repair a leak myself, I had to call in the professionals.   I call several places and a couple came out to look.   Their estimates on the phone were no where near accurate and the price the quoted in person was ridiculous.   I was almost ready to give up when I called this team.   Not only were they able to get here faster than the others, they stuck to their price.  I am definitely going to keep this number and go to them first when I have a problem.  Amazing and respectable service.

I love these guys. Boss man is a big ole teddy bear. They saved my bacon more than once, always at 4 in the afternoon on Friday. I have sold my home and am definitely recommending Shamrock to the new home owners. They ROCK.

This company is honest, dependable and reasonable.  They have worked at my houses several times.  They always show up and get the job done.  They were especially great after this last terrible ice storm.  I highly recommend them.

Nice plumber! Natal led a new faucet for me! Checked my bathroom faucet. Replaced the outside faucet. Total $75 and I got a calendar!

American Leak Detection will be my go to plumbing company as long as I call Texas home. Had my first interaction with them today and could not have been more pleased. They were prompt, professional and very informative. My technician, Kaleb, took the time to walk me through everything ensuring I understood what he was talking about as we went along. Highly recommend this company!!

On 12/16/2017  I called Tietze Plumbing for an estimate to install a water heater.  I mentioned that I was going to buy the water heater from Lowe's and needed them to pick up water heater and install.  She quoted $550 to $750.    When the guys came out to look where it will be installed I mentioned that they would have to pick up water heater.  They said I would also need an expansion.   So I purchased everything that was needed.   After calculating their estimate they said it would cost $800 just to install.   The next day they installed water heater and said it would cost $974 just to install.  I reminded them of their previous quote.  He just shrugged his shoulders.   After they left,  by nighttime my water still was not hot.   I called, and he suggested I check circuit breaker , so I did.  After flipping switch and waiting a couple hrs it seemed like I might be getting hot water.   The next day , still no hot water.   After speaking w/someone from mfg. company, I was asked if they asked me to turn water on to purge the system, I said no.  She then said , they might of damaged the heating element.  I called Tietze,  and after she spoke w/the installers, she said that they did everything they were suppose to.  Because , I didn't purchased the water heater from them I was told they couldn't warrant the installation.   It would cost $49 just to come out in addition to the cost of additional work.   I was not happy w/the extra costs.  I felt I already paid enough.   The lady a couple days later said the reason why it cost more to install is because they had to pickup water heater and install expansion pump.    The installers already knew that when they quoted $800  but then charged me $973 instead.    I ended up having to call a different plumber.   This other plumber was very nice and fixed the problem at no charge.   He said I already paid enough for a poor installation job.     I WILL NEVER CALL TIETZE PLUMBING AGAIN.   THEY LIED TO ME, OVERCHARGED ME,  DID NOT WANT TO WARRANT THEIR INSTALLATION.     And I will continue to spread my review because it's not right that they rip people off.

ABC is just awesome!

To start off, I called two different companies for an inspection on my home because of some noises heard in the attic. The first company told me they didn't offer inspections and the second made me pay $250 just to have them go out to inspect . The money paid for the inspection was supposed to just go towards the contracted service. Once the guy came out he told me I had so many issues with my attic and had at least 4 different species living in my attic. Of course I was panicked! Then quoted me $1500 to remove all of the animals. We just bought our home and I was hesitant on spending that amount of money.

I called ABC for a second opinion and not only was their inspection free of charge but their services where much more affordable and also came with warranty.

The technician Samantha came to my home to preform the work and she was with out a doubt amazing! She sealed my home, was an absolute professional, and most importantly she was able to remove a family of squirrels from my attic. It was a two week battle but I am finally critter free! Samantha was so polite, knowledgeable, and truly an expert in dealing with wildlife. As a female I could not say I would be able to do what Samantha has accomplished. YOU GO GIRL! I am so impressed with her work ethic! And will not hesitate to call her for all my future needs!

I called to hopefully talk to a manager or someone that makes decisions. I was put in charge of a project for a local school and before I could finish my first sentence I was told WE ARE NOT INTERESTED and hung up on! The woman at receptionist was RUDE! If they don't listen to everything how the heck are they going to know what I need or am looking for from their company. Just something to think about. I am sure the people who do the jobs in the field are phenomenal but the reception needs some help and or a crash course in Customer service training!

On time, great communication, fair price and job done right!

They replaced a light fixture. The job was done quickly and without a mess.

Our toilet stopped working last week, we called in to the service department who was very helpful. Then the plumber arrived (his name was Nick) was super helpful, worked efficiently, and got our toilet fixed in no time. I highly recommend this company for any of your plumbing needs

Bad, not honest, down right wrong!
Our home warranty company called Fred Wright plumbing to come out and fix a diverter that had broken just one month after a previous company replaced it.
We had already paid the previous company to install a new diverter in the tub handle and it was either not installed correctly or it was just a very cheap part. We had an agreement with the home warranty company that if Fred Wright plumbing found that the diverter was the problem again that we would not be charged a second time.

Joe refused to explain basic plumbing to the home warranty operator and instead told them that we broke the part ourself and on top of that told us that we would have to call and order the part and have it delivered before he could replace it.

The part was broken....but really....I am pretty sure I did not take the handle off and unto the part and break it and then put the handle and parts back on....pretty sure!

So we have paid $110.00 and now have no way to take a shower and must order the part ourself!

Joe is not welcome in my house again!

If I could give 0 stars I would. Some female said they'd be able to service our home the next day... the next day comes & she says they'd have to reschedule for the next day.... well that day comes & this dumb braud has the nerve to say they don't service our area (5 miles away).... my 3 kids went w/out water way longer than need be thanks to this company who asked for our address the day we set the apt up & never said they didn't service our area but proceeded to make an apt
