Best Water Heater Repair in Austin TX

Our clean-out drain was clogged and our toilets would not flush. I called Brad and he returned my call quickly and came out that same day, which was much appreciated. I immediately lost a lot of man card points when I was not able to locate the clean-out entry point when Brad got there, and I was duly embarrassed while I was nervously looking for it with Brad for the first 20 minutes of his visit. I could sense that Brad was losing patience (rightfully) and not having a good time dealing with this idiot (me). I tried to make a little conversation and lighten the mood, but I pretty much got the silent treatment for the remainder of his visit. He finally suggested that he remove one of our toilets and go in from the inside of our house with the auger snake. I realize this is a pain and I felt bad, but it worked. We found the clean-out on the side of the house, rather than the front yard, where I could have sworn it was, like the girly-man that I apparently am. He then moved to the side of the house and successfully cleaned out the pipes. Hooray! He replaced the toilet perfectly and left our house in great shape with all toilets a-flushin' and drains a-drainin'. But then he retired to his truck for the next 45 minutes while I was waiting inside with credit card in hand, missing my son's high school baseball game, I might add. I realize he had to pack up some tools and the auger in his truck and total up my bill on his tablet, and that takes some time. But I can't imagine that it takes a full 45 minutes. I feel like he was rounding me up to 2 full hours of his time at $85 per hour. So I guess I paid him $64 to get his truck in order and reflect on the day's accomplishments. Total bill was $300. Then I noticed I was charged $13 for caulk, $9 for shims, and $12 for bolts to put the toilet back in place. I would have let him use my toilet caulk or shims for free if he had just asked.
Anyway, I'm very happy that Brad was able to fix our problem quickly and completely, and I guess $300 is about right for this type of service in Austin. But I do have a problem with his general attitude and the extra 45 mystery minutes. I think we would have gotten off on a better foot if I had been more prepared with locating the clean-out. I may not know where my clean-out is, but I have other talents and people like me, gosh darnit.

Quick response to my communications, quoted a reasonable price and work was finished in the time estimated. Was happy with the overall experience and will definitely be a repeat customer in the future.

Gilbert replaced a sink in our rental house. He responded very quickly to schedule, showed up on-time and did an excellent job replacing the sink.

Great job Gilbert!

This morning, as we were making breakfast for 9, we noticed water pouring out of one of our kitchen drawers.  To make matters worse, it's Memorial Day weekend.  We called Rooter-Man based on their stellar Yelp reviews, and before the end of the day, Kyle came out, diagnosed the problem and traced it to its source, and managed to unclog a large mass in one of our downstairs pipes.  We are now clog-free, happy campers, and can enjoy the rest of our holiday weekend.  Thank you, Rooter-Man, and thank you, Kyle!

Having hired a few different plumbers we won't use anyone else. Highly recommend capital city without reservations. We called originally to rough in a shower remodel and then helped us with several other projects including water softener. They are great at communicating cost with clear explanation of what they are doing including timeframe. When you schedule a day and time they actually show up. Jason, our plumber, was very professional and explained things very well. I love that the owner and master plumber is very close to his business and stopped by when they installed the water softener.

Theo and his trainee Paul were thorough and professional. They recommended an area wholesale supplier for a toilet that I needed or they could go get it for us if so desiree for a small fee. The labor costs were fair, the toilet repair has been reliable. I will go with them again when our household next has need of a plumbing service.

My husband and I made the decision to finally renovate our kitchen because it's outdated and our friends would make comments.

We did our research on so many companies, got quotes, and spoke to them on the phone. None of the companies caught our attention and gave us that warm Customer Service feeling until we came across A&T Service Plumbing. Pierre took his time with us and got to the root of the issue, gave us his advice, and guided us through the process swiftly and affordably. He wrote up a contract and started in a prompt manner. I highly recommend A&T Service Plumbing! This is the first time I've used them and won't be the last.

I managed to break the water line in my house just inside the wall, Abel called me back immediately to discuss the job and gave me a fair estimate over the phone.  He showed up on time with Alex, and they were able to do the job and even went above and beyond repairing my wall and making sure it looked like new even though I didn't really expect it to.  You can't go wrong calling Abel, he's fair, quick, and super nice.  I will be using him for all of my plumbing needs at all of my rental homes going forward.

I'd highly recommend using Standard Plumbing. I reached out to Braulio on a Monday after I noticed my toilet start to leak, and he fit me into his schedule on Tuesday. He diagnosed the problem quickly and was able to fix it within an hour. My wax ring had worn out, so he replaced the ring and reset my toilet. His price was appropriate for the work. I will be using him again in the future for my plumbing needs.

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!!!

I used Jim at Republic Pipeworks to handle the gas line plumbing for my restaurant.

I can't say enough good things about Jim and his work. He is a Master Plumber in every sense. He was prompt, reliable and extremely knowledgeable. His pricing was very fair and his pride in his work in evident in the results. Jim also took the time to explain what he was planning prior to starting, answering all my questions to MY satisfaction every step of the way. Further, instead of plumbing everything simply as he saw as best, He took the time to present me with my options and advised me as to what he thought was the best course of action. I truly felt as a customer, I was a priority to him and he has earned my respect both as a customer and as a fellow businessman.

From now on, Republic Pipeworks will be the only company I trust to handle my commercial plumbing, as well as, the plumbing in my own home.

Very pleased with the service and the timeliness of the appointment.  I needed help with duct work leading from my range vent hood and Bernie was knowledgeable and professional.  He needed to be creative and implement a solution to a unique situation and handled it with ease.

So I called these guys at 9pm on a Saturday b/c that seems to be when leaks happen.  They gave me a 1am arrival time, but were willing to come that night.  They arrived at 10pm, were super friendly and professional (despite having a 12+ hour day so far), quickly assessed the immediate issues and stopped the leak.  They identified a root cause analysis, consulted me on how to find replacement fixtures, and quickly scheduled the follow up to do the replacements once the fixtures arrived.

Five stars yet again. A different plumber quoted me for a job, and Jeff saved the day by validating the quote, but came back with quality work at a lower rate, which was incredible and unexpected. Thanks, Jeff! Appreciate you!

Mark was a lifesaver. He was willing to come to my house late Saturday night to fix a burst pipe (I had tried calling 2 other companies that wouldn't/couldn't do it).

He was honest, polite, and helpful. Definitely will call him again!

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!

I thought I'd get an estimate over the phone and 2 hours later I have all my problems solved! No appointment, no waiting, no fuss. I like Nick! I had a toilet that I broke when I tried to fix it and a bathroom stopper in the sink that didn't function that had been broken for a year or more. Called Nick, got an almost immediate call back, he was here an hour later and gone with an hour. About $130 base fee for the hour. I don't know if that is good or bad, I just know I liked him and liked his speed and courtesy.

Needed valves replaced in laundry room to washing machine.  Requested quote online and was quickly answered.  Ben came out on schedule, on time, very courteous and professional.  Ben explained exactly what he was going to do and how much it was going to cost.  Excellent service and now my go to plumber.

Came out for an emergency visit when my shower broke and I could not turn off the water. They were super fast, arrived in under an hour and fixed the problem (replaced the cartridge in the shower) in 30 minutes. I absolutely will absolutely call them again.

Geronimo was here on time and replaced my water pressure regulator valve promptly & professionally.  This is a critical piece in any home's plumbing system because the pressure coming to the house is much too high. Geronimo got it done the day I called.
