Best Plumbing Services in San Antonio, TX

Tony helped me out of a jam, providing outstanding service for an extremely reasonable cost.  He was prompt, efficient, courteous and will definitely be my go to plumber in the future.

Thanks, Tony!

I recently had a water leak at the meter. This was the second time in a year, the first time was with a discount from a know aquaintaince of my in-laws.  Not that the first guy didn't know what he was doing, but, never-the-less, the issue reared it's ugly head again.  Handy Andy offered me a quote, which was a little steep, but he did a great job, and did some great modifications to help prevent the issue from happening again.

I haven't had to call a plumber this much (or ever) until we moved into an older house last year, but I'm thankful I came across 5J Plumbing.

Cameron & his helping hand thankfully worked me in before the weekend hit. I received a call when they were en route, which was much appreciated. They were courteous and quick to solve my problem. No complaints or questions asked when it came time to pay for their time & exceptional service. Im more than happy to shop local, and support family run businesses!

Highly* recommend them for your plumbing needs!

Excellent service from a true professional.

Mark Cruz of 'State of Matter' plumbing and backflow services repaired and replaced our old water heater. How old? Well, the manufacturing date on the heater was from ~20 years ago, THAT's how old.

State of Matter had to retool the space to fit the new heater, installed it quickly, and even vacuumed the area where they worked to get rid of the dust and dirt dragged in. That's professionalism that is rare these days.

Highly recommended you call SoM and make an appointment if you need service, even on the off days and hours.

Fast, reliable, honest. We use him for all of our rental houses.

While they were able to send someone out the same day, the technician was not sure what the problem was and was going to leave until we started asking more questions, which prompted him to check the motor and discover it wasn't working.  He said they would order the part and come the next day (Thursday)... by Friday afternoon, I hadn't heard anything so I called back and was told that the part had to be ordered outside of San Antonio and would not be in until at least Tuesday.  I understand this; however, I believe I should have been called with an update and that it shouldn't have fallen on me to call back... very poor service, especially when someone's air conditioner is not working.

My toilet was backed up, and I called Shafer to come and fix it.  The two plumbers that came out were extremely courteous and polite.  He tried a short snake from the toilet which did not solve the problem.  He then told me that the next step was taking the toilet apart and snaking which would cost SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS.  I was flabbergasted, to say the least.  He guaranteed that this would fix the toilet unless the pipes were broken.  I asked them to take a peek under the house and see if there was a mess under the house (I have pier and beam) so I could make a better decision.  One of the plumbers then told me that they could snake from the vent on the roof and it would save me $200.  I am not sure why they would not suggest that at first, since it cost less.  It still cost me a little over $400, and I feel pretty sure I could have gotten someone to snake it for about $150 or $200 and solved the problem.  He did offer the option of leaving with me paying only for the service call if I thought that I could find a better price, but I went ahead and told them to do it since they were already here. Bottom line:  I think that their prices are outrageous

.*****Quick update*******my pipes got clogged up again, and I found a different plumber (Barrera's Pumbing 210-927-3481) and they came and did the EXACT SAME THING and charged me $110, and explained that when a house sits vacant for awhile, the pipes crust up and then when you use them again, the deposits start moving again and clog up the pipes.  They told me that my pipes clogged up again because I put in a washer, and so the deposits sitting in those pipes caused it to clog again.  (so yes...Barerra's climbed up the ladder and snaked from the vent on the roof, and charged $110, instead of $443.)

This is WAY DIFFERENT from what Shafer told me, which amounted to me having to spend thousands on new pipes because the old pipes could never sustain a washer/sink/toilet.

Call Barrerra's...they are professional, polite, and charge a fair price instead of extortion.

Barrera's Plumbing 210-927-3481.......I give Barrera's plumbing FIVE STARS!!!  :)

A schedule service with these guys 2 weeks prior. The plumber was schedule to show up at 9 o'clock to remove my water heater so that repair could be done to the wall behind it. He knew I had other contractors coming to do work at 10 o'clock he showed up at 10:30, making my other contractor late on starting their job. The quote he gave me went from 331.00 to 604.00 to just  remove and replace my water heater.  He charged me a $59 service charge twice because he had to come back to replace the water heater 2 days later. Neither service charge was included in the original  quote. Sold me new coils that I don't know if I needed or not.  He got into a fight with the contractor that had to wait for him to start his job and I had to calm the situation down because I didn't want people fighting in my home.  To add insult to injury he was Lake when he returned to replace my water heater. After being overcharged he tried to go back on the 90 day warranty he promised and give me a 30 day warranty. I made him scratch it out and sign in an initial that it is a 90 day warranty he got upset because I made him sign and date. Buyery  beware because this company sent out a plumber that overcharged, was late, unprofessional, was rough when dealing with me and I had been a customer of theirs as 2018. I'll call the company to make a complaint and they said they'd call me back, but never did. Needless to say I'll never use them again!!!DID NOT WEAR A MASK!!!!

Horrible service! This man left in the middle of doing the job supposedly to go get a part he needed and never came back. I do not recommend this company or this person.
