The Plumbinator

Excellent Service and Fair Price ! !

by Jesus Zertuche at Citysearch

It’s every homeowner’s worst nightmare—the sink backs up, spilling oily gray water all over the floor. Guests are coming over in a day, and nothing gets the clog out—not the plunger, not the 25-foot auger, not even the chemicals that are no good for the pipes (but really, what won’t you try when you are THAT desperate?). Can’t use the sink, can’t use the laundry machine or the dishwasher, and all you can see is a stream of money flowing from your wallet down, down down the drain…

Especially in this economy, looking for a plumber is an anxiety-ridden process (akin to looking for a mechanic) that seems more a choice between getting overcharged and getting REALLY overcharged. Which is why finding The Plumbinator is a stroke of luck that, while not on the level of winning megabucks, is at least equivalent in magnitude to a winning scratch-off ticket. These guys deserve serious props for providing good, honest, ethical, local service at an extremely competitive and fair price—qualities you don’t find in companies too often these days. I know businesses and I know services and beyond the shadow of a doubt recommend The Plumbinator to my mother!

Best service I've ever had no BS

by kd5dvl at Citysearch

I have had the Plumbinator crew do work for me twice now, I am moving to Belton, I can only hope that if I need a plumber in the future, that I can find a crew that is as good as Mickey and his son.

If you want a reasonable no BS fix for your plumbing needs, you should call them first.

Their work is top notch, and their prices are better than anyone else.

The only reason i called them in the first place is because the "big name" plumbing companies wouldn't return my phone call on a weekend.

Strike one up for the small business owner on this one.

I'm glad i called them.

Nice guy, great job.

Our water heater gave up the ghost a couple of months ago. It was the original one that came with the house, and had not been installed with a drain pan or a drain.

After not getting any worthwhile reccomendations from friends, I called around and searched the internet. I found "The Plumbinator" online, had some good reviews, figured I'd give him a shot.

Wasn't dissapointed. Really nice guy, did a great job. Not only installed the new water heater, but put in a drain pan as well a drain. Not a huge deal, but really appreciated the extra effort to do the job right. On top of all that, it all ended up costing me less than what other plumbers had quoted.

Will definitely call him again next time we have a plumbing issue.

Repeat Costumers

by Cline2 at Citysearch

We used them in November for a water leak in our ceiling beneath from our upstairs bathroom. That repair went wonderfully! He showed up quickly and fixed the problem and set us up with the drying service and sheetrock repairmen! Having a leak was never so easily fixed for us, one call did it ALL! We called them back to replace one of our toilets and fix our masterbath showers lack of pressure. His son's replaced the toilet while he worked on our showers poor pressure. He tired a few things which sorta helped a little and didn't stop looking for the root cause until we were satisfied with the repair. Our shower is now heaven! I can't believe we waited so long to have him come out and look...he is truely a miracle worker with plumbing! Thank you guys for such wonderful repairs! As far as we're concerned, you guys are the ONLY plumbers in Austin!

• Pros: Straight simple talk with fast repairs
• Cons: none
