I had contacted Houston about replacing my Hot Water Tank which was leaking on the basement floor. They called me back and gave me a very good quote. I then scheduled them for the following Monday when they had a crew available to do the install. Around noon on the same day I received a text from the scheduler that one of their crews had finished up early and they were in the area. I didn't get the text until about 3 that day as I was at work.

The scheduler then called my wife at home and asked her if it would be all right if they came then. She was thrilled to get the hot water back in the house. Long story short by the time I got the text and headed home the work was all done except taking the old tank back out of the basement. Job looked excellent and one of the techs was the son of someone that I know at work. Both techs were professional and very neat and clean workmanship. I highly recommend Houston for Plumbing repair work.

I called Houston because I smelled gas at my house close to the gas meter. They had a crew stop by my house within 30 minutes and immediately diagnosed the problem as being an underground gas leak. Neal worked hard to get their crew back out to my house within a couple days so that my gas line could be repaired and my gas turned back on. Thank you for your responsiveness and quality work!

I live in a trailer and my hot water tank hose blew. I couldn't find anyone to fix it. These guys sent a tech tight out and half hour later I had a new line! Rodney is amazing!

2 men came to my daughter's new place. The older one argued with her. Told her that the toilet was not leaking. The younger one confirmed the leak to him. He refused to fix it. She called a plumber in Columbus. He came right out fixed. Told her no problem.
