Best Water Heater Repair in Houston TX

For changing two thermostats of two water heaters I was charged $777. I wish I could have shopped around more but the day I moved in the water heaters were not working. So had no choice but to get it done.

Quick to respond, schedule, and arrive right on time.  Prices very fair.  Great service and communication from the tech.  Highly recommend and will use for plumbing needs going forward (former ARS customer).  Thanks Acosta Plumbing!

Audits fixed 3-4 burst pipes in a single afternoon. Highly recommend. Arrived early to the property and is knowledgeable on plumbing.

My hot water went out on Friday night, so I was scrambling to find a plumber to take a look at the hot water heater on Saturday morning. After calling several plumbing companies with no luck, I reached a plumbing company (which I wrote a separate review about) that agreed to send someone out that afternoon.  

The technician arrived around 4pm, and after spending - max - 5 minutes diagnosing my hot water heater, he told me that the problem could be a variety of issues, maybe a broken gas valve or potentially a faulty burner assembly. He then went into detail about how, because the labor to fix a burner assembly would be almost as expensive installing a new water heater, I should just go ahead and get a new one installed. WHAT?? That's what you call a diagnosis of the problem? He then went on to quote me a fee - for labor, pulling a city permit, and working in the attic - for over $1,000 - and that DID NOT include the cost of the water heater itself (which was covered under warranty).

I was left with the feeling that I might be getting conned, so I called Plumbco to get a second estimate. If I was going to pay that much to get a new water heater installed, I wanted to be sure that I wasn't getting swindled. Gary quoted me a price comparable to what the technician from the first company quoted - BUT, his price INCLUDED a new water heater. If I supplied the water heater myself and only wanted to pay for labor to install? Gary told me it would only be about HALF the price the other company quoted me.

Gary then started asking me what my issue was. After I explained what was happening, he told me that, unless my tank was leaking, I didn't need to replace it with a whole new one. He had a good idea of what the problem was, and agreed to come by Monday to fix the water heater. He called on Monday morning to confirm he had the replacement parts, showed up EARLIER than originally promised, and fixed the problem in under 45 minutes. The best part is, it cost me only about 1/3 what the other company quoted me.

Gary and one of his other technicians were polite, friendly and professional. They wore booties in the house, and Gary even made sure to clean up all the dust and debris that had floated down from the attic. To top it all off, Gary even stayed around an extra 10-15 minutes, and then went back up into the attic to double check that the water heater was, in fact, working properly. Can't ask for better service than that!

Hector, the owner and his crew are the best! They took care of everything and went above and beyond our expectations! With a combined knowledge of over 30 years, best prices (yes, I got like 15 quotes), cleanliness, professionalism, execution of time, and more! We are BERY HAPPY customers and plan on remaining on their client list forever. They did a HUGE job and although they were here for 3 full days, it was worth it! Don't let the fact that sheet rocking is outsourced (by you) keep you away because that is the least of the jobs. Most companies include this however it is not worth the extra 3.5k-6k additional when you can find the person for much less. We had additional spots fixed that had nothing to do with the job, so that was great AND all still for less  HIRE THEM NOW!!!

Hugo was on time, knowledgeable and very neat.  Had a door that would not lock due to an older home on a crawl space, Hugo knew exactly what to do! He was quick and verbally told me everything he was going to do. This is a handyman that I will definitely keep the number of!  Can't go wrong with this guy!

Great service from a reputable company! We called Plumbaway Plumbing and got an appt for the next morning with a one hour window. The service technicians showed up on time and got the job done thoroughly and quickly. Price was reasonable and exactly what they quoted over the phone. Have not had this experience in the past with other local plumbing companies. Would highly recommend Plumbaway and use them for future plumbing needs.

These guys will definitely be getting calls from me on future plumbing needs! Quick response time, great communication on when they would be out. Called on a holiday weekend got fair prices for the work done when others just replied with cannot service. Sebastian was great, knew what he was doing very professional. Got a call after the work was done to see how my experience was with the service which to me actually says a lot about what these guys think about their customer service. Would definitely recommend these guys to anyone in need of plumbing repairs.

Contacted this establishment on 2/6/23 for someone to come out to my home to service a leak that was detected by the city of League City. My appointment was scheduled for 2/7/24 between 9am-10am. I received a call from Chris on 2/7 asking to push back our appointment due to being on another job so I agreed to 4pm. At 6pm, I received a call from Chris stating a tool was left behind at the previous job and he needed to reschedule. Super inconvenient considering I took off from work to be present for my appointment and as a teacher, we are not given many days to request off per school year. Needless to say I will not recommend this company to anybody.

They responded almost right away and we had a plan set within a few messages back and forth.  My project was having our broken garbage disposal replaced with a new one (provided by the Handyman).  The price was right and the work was done within an hour.   They left their worksite cleaner than it had been before and he took the time to explain all of the features and tips and tricks for extending the life of the new garbage disposal.  I really appreciate all of their hard work and I have even booked my next project with them as well.  Lastly, they were fully COVID prepared and remained so the entire time.

Texas Plumbing on Woodwind did a great job fixing my freeze busted pipes. I texted them Wednesday and they were out today while other plumbers had quoted me A MONTH wait (wait times are very long right now in February 2021 because of an awful storm that got as low as 10 degrees, lasted several days, and froze all the pipes). They spent about 4 hours fixing 3 leaks in the attic, bill was about $1200.

My family can finally shower again!

They said they would be there between 2 and 4 and they got there at 2:15. They fixed my problem fast for a fair price. It was a major relief.

Great prompt service. Highly recommend!
Showed up with a mask which is great and was very nice and helpful.

I haven't had water in three days due to a pipe bursting from the recent freezing temperatures. I called JD two days ago and today was their earliest appointment. The weather forecast is the same today as it was at the time they scheduled this appointment.

We've been waiting for them to show up, yet nobody came today. I called three times, and I keep getting an answering service for JD, who told me that apparently JD is closed today. If I would have known, I would have obviously scheduled another plumber. The state of Texas is in the middle of a water emergency, people are in real need, and unreliable company's like this are just making it worse for the entire state. I encourage everyone reading this review to think very carefully about the current circumstances and whether this is the type of company you can rely on when you have a real plumbing emergency.

Please also note that the idea that the roads are not safe enough to drive didn't prevent either of my direct neighbors from finding respectable plumbing companies to service their homes today, nor did it prevent my community in Spring from being on the roads themselves today. TWO separate companies followed through on their commitment to their customers in a time of great need, whereas JD was nowhere to be found. The idea that they didn't even extend the courtesy of telling me they weren't showing up today shows a serious lack of professionalism and just how little they care about their customers, especially in such dire circumstances.

Bottom line is that I will never allow them to step foot in another one of my personal properties in Texas, nor any of my commercial properties, and I encourage everyone else to do the same. The fact that a plumbing business would sit on the sidelines during such a crisis blows my mind. Fortunately, other, more reputable, plumbing companies have stepped up during this state emergency. JD is an absolute embarrassment.

If you want a reliable plumbing company, JD Plumbing isn't it. Don't be fooled by the 5 star reviews they beg their customers for. Go somewhere else.

Carl was prompt and professional.  He explained the work and pricing up front.  Did a quality job replacing an outside hose bib.  I would use Alliance plumbing again in the future.

This company has provided exceptional service. Appointment was easy to schedule. Text messages sent to confirm appointment time and they even send you a small bio and photo of the worker who is assigned to your home. Plumbers very professional. Problems were addressed and clearly explained. I will continue to use them anytime plumbing issues arise!

Great experience!  Good quality, honest and complete. You won't go wrong here. They were on time and communicated along the way.

We had leak outside the house. Cedric was the technician that showed up to the house. He was very professional and courteous. I showed him where the leak was and he said he would get right on it. He fixed the leak and answered all the questions that I had about it. He even explained a few other details. Over all a very satisfying experience.

I had Jonathan, a technical, go to my elderly father's home to check his disposal that my father thought was not working.  He arrived on time and found a seed in the disposal that was causing it not to work.  We were not charged one penny.  I appreciate the honesty and the kindness that was offered; in addition to not charging a service fee.  I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them.
