Best Drain Installation in Austin TX

Just wanted a quote for a simple repair. Was even able to provide a similar part number. Brad was straight up rude, which even he acknowledged by apologizing. More power to him if he's able to stay busy with his demeanor. But if you have 25+ years of experience, you should be able to estimate something off the top of your head, especially if it's something small between $300-$600. That all being said, I read his reviews and would probably still work him in the future.

Both of our water heaters (connected in parallel) started leaking and the pilot light would not stay on. I reached out to Proven Plumbing for a quote.

The first thing that stuck me about this company is their professional and polite attitude - this is one of the best I have ever experienced. I spoke to Peter and he immediately sent their team members to my house to inspect the current water heater and then they sent me a quote to replace both water heaters. It was very easy to talk to anyone at the company - special kudos to Peter and Louis. What I loved was that they took the time to calmly explain to me what was wrong and what they would be doing. They also answered any questions I had about my quote.

On the day of install, they sent Mr. Richard and Mr. Brian. Both of them were super professional and answered the numerous questions I had :-) It was a true pleasure talking to them. They did an amazing job of installing the new water heaters, expansion tanks and all the insulation (important due to the unpredictable weather in Austin/Round Rock. )

This is a trustworthy company, reliable and knowable with a professional crew. I highly recommend them.

Sent Gil the plumbing section of my home inspection report and he got back to me wuickly with a quote. When Matt came out to do the work, he let me know a lot of what was on the report may have not been in need of repairs, so that saved us a bunch of money. Work was completed quickly and everything works great.

We have used Rooter-Man a couple of times now, and they are definitely our go-to plumber from here on in. Eddie arrived on time, quickly identified the problem with our shower, explained it to us very clearly, and got it all fixed. He also gave us some good info about how to avoid a similar problem in the the future. He is super polite, very thorough and professional, and does great work.

If you want a plumber you can trust, and who will do the job right, look no further than Rooter-Man.

I had a leak that scared me.  They scheduled to come the same day.  We figured out where it was from, replace the drain pipe, cleaned up after himself and left the place dry and clean.
They charged a reasonable rate, that they told me up front. They were quick and had all the parts with him that he needed.
What I expect from an experienced service company.
I liked the email notices and he called before he came over.
Got the receipt by email and paid by card with his phone.
He wore a mask and respected distance, yet was friendly.
About all I can ask for an emergency service call.  

Much better than the last local company I used.  I think I found a new company!

We were upset to discover on a Friday night that we had a water leak in our front yard coming from underground - the water company, home insurance, and home warranty were not going to be helpful in this situation (we checked). So of course, we were expecting this to be painful process both in time (digging to find the leak) and in cost.

Bill did a fantastic job at  easing that pain. He was able to give us a very reasonable estimate after discussion of our issue over the phone and agreed to come out the same day on a Saturday to look over the problem and even do the job. He was very professional.

He came, he saw, and he conquered. The job even cost the amount he had originally estimated. Bill was very honest with us when he arrived and it could have cost more depending on what he would find upon digging and we appreciated his opinion. Bill discovered the leaky problem after digging and had it fixed within 3 hours as promised. We recommend Bill for any plumbing needs you may have.

Great work from these guys! I had several quotes on the PRVs for my water line (too high pressure resulting in knocking at the water valves to my washing machine), A&T is half what the other guys quoted. They can give me a quote over the phone and doesn't do the we need to come out with a sale guy.

They come out literally two days later, with two guys working on the valve. They didn't mind that I stood there and asked questions. As they almost finished, they did end up encountered some new issues along the way (with roots and fittings) resulting in some leaking. So they just spent more time, undo everything, cut the roots, fix the fitting and working on it until it's done right. With all the unexpected issues like the root and redo needed, they gave me zero fuss.

Water pressure is good now, and no more knocking. I'm impressed.

Abel to Plumb is an honest, reliable company which represents the best of what the profession has to offer. Very kind, on time, extremely fair prices that were far below what I expected to pay, and just an overall great experience.

Thanks so much Abel for coming out darn near immediately and fixing our clogged sink problem! You're a life saver and we'll definitely be seeing you again in the future.

I can only echo the other reviews. Braulio is fantastic - quick to reply, straightforward/reasonable pricing, and very friendly. It's like having a good friend over that's also an expert plumber. I have contacted and used many other plumbers in Austin, and they can't hold a candle to Braulio. He is head and shoulders above the rest, and the only person I will call (and recommend) for plumbing.

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!!!

Honest, on-time, thorough and reasonably priced.  I will definitely call Jim again when I need plumbing/gas line work done right!

I had decided to have an Aprilaire whole-home filter installed at the intake of my air handling unit. On their website, and for my zip code, Aprilaire listed Stan's as a preferred contractor. And now I know why.

Stan's did a fantastic job installing my whole-home filter, and the price was fair. And they did it without trying to sell me anything else. The man knew what I wanted, showed up, and made it look easy. This was such good work that I'll be seeking them out for more HVAC and plumbing work I have planned.

This company is solid. I'd definitely recommend them.

It was 6 months ago now - but they came quickly and even offered a slot the evening before my appt. My issue was a bit complex so the owner came by after the 1st teammate looked at. Id call them again anytime. They offered many options - honestly and w kindness.

Thunderbird Plumbing stands out as an exceptional service and customer oriented company. Thunderbird was one of three plumbing companies recommended by my fantastic realtor and I sought estimates from another five via Yelp.

I needed replacement of the Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) for low water pressure, a hydrostatic leak test of the drain lines, and a basic leak test of the freshwater lines.

Jeff, the owner of Thunderbird, responded same day and was able to provide a detailed estimate the following day (a day sooner than anticipated). We were communicating via Email and his responses to my many questions were timely, detailed and very easy to understand. Thunderbird's estimate was on company work order/invoice letterhead: the only company to do so. And yes, the completed work came in right on the estimate! No surprises!

Of the five companies via Yelp, I received replies ranging from no reply, to asking me why I needed an estimate, to a required $89 service call just for an estimate, to a range of estimate prices. Of these, some were detailed estimates, others were not. Anyway folks, I did my homework!

After scheduling with Thunderbird for the following Monday, I had to move the work back a week. Jeff was able to accommodate the change- no problem! This was a huge relief, considering how busy the skilled trades are in Austin right now (the housing boom).

The PRV replacement involved digging in the front yard and Jeff was amazingly tidy: putting plastic down first, cutting the sod layer separately, and putting all sod and dirt on the plastic. When the PRV was fixed, you could hardly see where any digging was done at all!. The hydrostatic test involved removing one toilet and when the test was done, he put the toilet back with a new wax ring, new retainer bolts, and new caulk! This was great! Jeff provided pictures, for my records, of the water pressure test readings and various phases of all the work.

This was a new home purchase for me, though I've lived in Austin a little over 30 years. I can easily say Thunderbird Plumbing, and the owner Jeff Plunkett, was the best experience I've had with a plumbing contractor! I will use Thunderbird for any and all of my future plumbing needs, guaranteed!

To echo what everyone else has said, Mark is awesome! We spent over $500 with another plumbing company who fixed nothing, broke a filter, and then told us we needed to spend another $1000+ on a flushing system for our hot water heater.
When the hot water completely stopped a month later we called Pure Plumbing. He came 2 days later (not as fast as one without hot water would like, but he had other people to rescue) and said he thought it was the igniter, but couldn't tell until he fixed that. I appreciated his honesty and warning that we COULD need a new unit if this didn't work. Unfortunately it took another 6 days for the part to arrive, but luckily the new igniter worked!!! No more warming bath water on the stove!
He also told us it wouldn't really be worth the $ on the flushing system since the unit is already 10 yrs old. He totally could have sold us on that, but didn't. If only all home repair companies were so honest!! We'll definitely call Pure Plumbing first next time!!

Broke my spigot on the side of my house. Spot-on was out here quickly and very communicative about prices and the prices to complete the project correctly.

I contacted O&M for a hydrostatic test. They charged a fraction of what other companies charged, were super easy to work with to get on the schedule. Within in a few days, Antonio came out, was very quick, professional, and answered all of our questions, and performed the test efficiently in a 30 min time frame. Working with O&M was a great experience and I would recommend them to anybody needing plumbing services!

I did not use Austin Plumbing as I had an emergency and had to go with the first I found available but they were responsive and I would definitely contact them again in the future. In this day and age, just getting that response is 5 star service and I appreciate that they took the time to give it.

Thanks so much for helping us out, Geronimo!  We hired Geronimo to replace our bathroom fixtures in two bathrooms. He arrived quickly after our Yelp conversation only to let us know that we bought the wrong fixtures for our plumbing configuration.  He told us what to buy, and we agreed that he would come back two days later.  Two days later, Geronimo arrived again as planned and beautifully installed our new shower and bath fixtures.  

Also, we tacked on two toilet repairs, which he also tackled.  

Hopefully Geronimo won't hear from us for a while, but I've got his card should we have any other plumbing needs

My garbage disposal didn't work so I called to a schedule a fix. He told me before we scheduled anything, to try pushing the reset button on the disposal. I didn't know they had reset buttons. That fixed the issue at no charge. 5 stars for integrity!
