Best Garbage Disposal Installation in Austin TX
Worked 40 years in sales, I always wondered why a highly reviewed plumber charges less than industrial standard. Now I get it.
We hired 3 different plumbers to install 3 brand new toilets. Our neighbor found all 3 off Yelp for us. Brad has the lowest rating (4.5 out of 5, the other 2 both have 5), but since his hourly rate is also the lowest (about 2/3 of the other 2), we chose him. Turned out his invoice is the most expensive. What an irony. The strategy is to long haul hours and charge high markups on materials. It's not a bad marketing tactic, just not what we like.
After all, 4.5 star is not 5 star. Go with one of the 5 star plumbers and enjoy honesty. Quality wise, all 3 toilets survived the 3 month warranty period.

I cannot say enough good things about Richard and Proven Plumbing. We had them install a new toilet, the toilet leaked, Richard found a crack in the toilet, and installed a new one. The customer service has been excellent, Richard is a great employee and we are very grateful for his diligence.
Thank you Proven plumbing!

After a poor experience with one of the bigger companies, I looked through reviews here to find a local plumber and settled on Blue Dragon. I had a little problem getting a hold of Gilbert because he has a lot of business. While he was here, he fielded several calls for customers whom he referred to other businesses since he couldn't get to them right away.
Fortunately, when I called, he had an opening and was able to come by a few hours later. He arrived exactly when he told me he would and still gave me a call to let me know when he was on his way from his prior job. He was friendly and worked quickly, assessing both issues I had concerns about. He fixed the one issue and suggested an alternative for the other.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with my choice.

- technician wasnt able to find the source to the problem and did a wrong diagnosis when called in to detect a water leak from the bathroom shower.
- the technician wasnt able to detect the leak ,but instead said the leak is due to the missing gasket to the shower door.
- charged over 130$ to come out and to do an ignorant trouble shooting.
- the wrong troubleshooting pointed us in the wrong direction leading to severe delay in finding the actual issue, all along while the leak was active.
- The actual issue was due to the broken shower drain beneath the shower stall, which was found out by a different plumber.
- waste of time and money going with rooterman plumbing despite the high 5 start reviews.

Patrick was our tech for a hose bib repair. He showed up FIRST thing in the morning, a rarity for service calls. He was polite and courteous, and knocked the job out in a timely manner. I would absolutely use him again.

We had a leak of unknown source in our bathroom sending water out in multiple directions under the tile and eventually into carpeted areas. Theo and Paul came out to take a look and arrived exactly on time as per the appointment, checked out the area, and then discussed options for stopping and repairing what turned out to be a slab leak.
The job took two days to stop the leak, and then to restore normal water service to the affected area, but they worked very well, communicated well, and cleaned up after themselves as well as could be done given the difficult nature of the job.
I highly recommend EZ Flow Plumbing for any work that needs to be completed, they are easy to work with, punctual, friendly, highly competent, and take the normal COVID precautions if that is of great concern. It's nice to know that should we have another issue, I know exactly who I will be calling for help.

Very impressed with the service from A&T plumbing. I contacted A&T via Yelp Messaging when I had trouble with a broken toilet seat and a pair of leaky toilet tank flappers and Pierre D. responded right away.
Scheduled the repair a few days later and it was done promptly and courteously. I'd use A&T again in a heartbeat and recommend them.
Pro Tip: You might need to leave a wide window in your schedule, as they came and fixed the problem quickly but they were delayed 4(!) hours before arriving.

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.

5 stars from me. Responsive/communicative, quick, issue resolved (leaky garbage disposal), reasonably priced.
I sent a message via yelp first and was given the flat fee upfront for the service which I appreciated. Braulio then got in touch and came over within the hour. He took at look at my old disposal, told me the expected cost of the same unit and went out and grabbed it. He came back, finished the job and left me with my disposal good as new, now I no longer need a bucket under my sink. I will definitely call back if I have issues with anything else in the future.

I woke up to both of my bathrooms flooded and Santana plumbing company squeezed me in and within an hour found and fixed the problem. Prices arent bad, he finished in a timely manner, and he even gave me info to help in the future. I'm so glad that I called them and they're local. They were great.

I called Republic Pipeworks because I needed a new hot water heater. Jim came to my house checked everything out and had it replaced with a brand new one for a GREAT price. I would recommend Republic Pipeworks to anyone!

I dont recommend this company to anyone. They seems trying to trick your money when they can! My tenant said the AC would continue to run after the set temperature was reached. So I called this AC company to come to check. I don't know if it is because this AC knew I don't live there as a landlord, but they told me the AC was not broken and the damper was broken. They gave me a quote around 500 dollars to replace the damper! I asked my handyman and he said it was very rare to have the damper broker for a only 2 years new house. I did not move forward with this company because their quote was too high, but I wasted money to pay for their trip/diagnosis fee! Later I called another AC company and they came over and just simply adjusted the damper and only charged me a basic trip fee!

Made an emergency call to Plumb Doctors for a leaking pipe in our foundation. They were able to send someone out that morning. Jamie arrived and quickly assessed the situation. Andrew brought in a leak detector and they located the manifolds and the leak. Jamie stayed until late that Friday evening with another tech to open up two spots in the wall and cap off the leaking connections. Thanks to them we had water service in our house for the weekend and the leaks were stopped. They also scheduled a follow up visit to reroute the leaking pipes. A friend recommended Plumb Doctors and we're glad we called them. They were very professional and diagnosed and solved the problem quickly and efficiently.

First time using Thunderbird Plumbing on a small job (replacing an protruding water shut-off valve with a recessed one. I realize some places don't care much for small jobs, but Thunderbird treated it with as much professional care as a larger job. Raymond was on time and the cost and duration was what he quoted over the phone. Very reasonable price. Super nice guy as well. I will be calling on them again for future plumbing needs.

One star for a prompt response and one for showing up when they said they would. But I've never felt so taken advantage of financially. I had a leaky toilet that required ten minutes worth of tweaking, and it cost me over $250. Recommended only for those with very deep pockets.

We discovered a leak after coming back from vacation. I contacted Scott from Spot-On Plumbing after the water mitigation company found the source and he came the same day, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it promptly. He was knowledgable, upfront, and was able to identify other major and minor issues that were the cause of the leak. I'd highly recommend Scott to anyone who needs repairs done efficiently!

O&M Plumbing was absolutely great! Ben was very nice and friendly. My daughters bathroom shower panel did not get hot enough to her liking. He knew exactly what to do and did not make her feel like she was silly for trying to get the shower to the right temp. He was able to fix in no time.
We did have a few other plumbers come out and try to fix with no luck. One told us to replace the panel without even removing the panel to try to troubleshoot.
Soooo happy he was able to do the job and resolve the problem. He will be our go to plumber from now on.

I called Austin Plumbing for some broken pipes from the ice/snow storm. They made it out the next day. They were able to repair everything and get us up and running. Super nice.

Geronimo responded quickly when I reached out via Yelp regarding freeze damage. He diagnosed the problem, found replacements for the parts of the system I didn't understand well, and improved on the design of this part of the system. He also showed me how I might be able to detect further damage on my own. We will keep their number!

I can't say enough good things about Diego. He helped me out with a custom butcher block countertop in our guest room, and the level of communication, craftsmanship, and detail shown in his work was truly impressive.
I'd been trying to get this project completed for almost a year - I had several other handymen that just never responded to me or completely ghosted me after initial conversations. Not only did Diego get back to me immediately, but he asked all the right questions that I didn't even consider that showed his years of experience, so that I knew I was in good hands. He was so patient with explaining his entire process, answered all of my (many) questions, and kept me involved every step of the way.
The project turned out even better than I expected, and I'm so pleased with how it looks. On top of everything, Diego is a really chill, friendly guy who is great at what he does, and exceptionally fair and honest.
I've since worked with Diego on a couple of smaller projects, and he's super generous with his time and goes out of his way to help me troubleshoot other little issues around my house that I could probably manage on my own. For anything larger that requires a more skilled hand, I'm going to Diego first from now on.
