Recommended Customer Reviews

I called Chavez Plumbing to have gas line tested in a rental property after waiting 3 days for another plumber to show. They showed up the very same day, about 45mins after calling. All city permits were handled and the city inspector approved their work the next morning. These guys are very serious about customer service.

We had a leak in our water main and first called Village Plumbing. They said they would come between 8 am and 1 pm. They finally showed up at 6pm and quoted a full day of work & $2000. A coworker told me he had something similar done a month before for $400 by a plumber in Spring. So I looked for another plumber on Yelp and called Chavez plumbing; they showed up on time, quoted $285 and completed the repair in 30 minutes. Needless to say we will be using Chavez for all our plumbing needs.

In 2010 Chavez Plumbing installed PEX throughout my home, as my 35 year old iron pipes started to leak; one of them bursting. It took 2 days; however, he made sure I had one working toilet and shower, and running water to at least one sink at nighttime between the two days. They worked closely with the Pasadena plumbing inspectors, making sure all codes were met. They had to cut but a few holes in the drywall. Patching was a snap, as they cut squares that went back in place. I had only to tape, float, and paint. I am extremely pleased with constant, equalized water pressure, and no worries about bursting pipes. My wife has not screamed since (me flushing while she showers). His pricing was competitive, his work impeccable, and workers very attentive to cleanness.

Chavez Plumbing installed two cleanouts for me. Mr. Chavez came out to give me a quote and it was very competitive. His staff showed up on time, did the job well, and cleaned up after themselves. I will be calling them with my future plumbing needs.

These guys were AWESOME. I called several other plumbers before I found these guys... the either didn't show up or didn't call back, etc. These guys answered on a Saturday morning, showed up within a few hours, quoted me a fair price, got the job done well, and quickly (we had a leak in our front yard). Additionally, as they were confirming the water worked inside the house, they realized the airator of one of our sinks wasn't working well (I just thought it was bad water pressure), so replaced it for no cost - it wasn't an expensive piece, but it was REALLY nice to see people go a little above and beyond. Highly recommend and would use again!

I have used Chavez Plumbing for many years, but never again.
When Julio used to come out, he charged decent prices. Now he has his crews charge triple inflated prices. No one needs to pay these prices for a good plumbing job.
I will use them only if they are the last plumbing company in Houston and I am desperate.

The gentlemen that came out were very professional and on time. I needed a new spicket installed on the side of my house and we discussed the options. Everything seemed good but the price. $485 for one spicket. The job required 8ft of copper pipe and the guys arrived at 915 and left at 1030. $485!?!? I called the office and asked what warranted this price for an hours worth of work and the lady on the phone just said the price is not by the hour but by the job. I paid with a smile but won't use again unless they can justify their prices.

We have called Chavez Plumbing at least 5 or 6 times over the last few years and have always been very pleased. They are prompt and professional and do great work. The prices are moderate which we appreciate. They have replaced faucets, both indoors and out, and fixed a leak on our water heater, just basic stuff, but stuff that needs to be done now and done right. We recommend them often to our friends.

Called them out on a Saturday. They came out and did a fast job on getting a kitchen sink fixed, He cleaned up and have me some suggestions about the garbage disposal. I would definitely use them again.

I was very impressed with Chavez Plumbing. I discovered the connection to the cold water copper tubing above my hot water heater was leaking. I tried to fix the leak, but to no avail. I searched Angies list and saw Chavez Pluming was a top-rated company, so I decided to give them a call.
He arrived in just under an hour (they were in my neighborhood on another job). Mr. Chavez replaced the copper tubing for both the hot and cold water with much stronger and heavier-weight copper tubing. He showed me the copper tubing I had was cheap and was about ready to burst. He sealed the connections, and waited to make sure the connections were sealed tight and wouldn't leak.
Mr. Chavez was very professional, personable and charged a very reasonable rate ($165). He cleaned up everything (including the water) and took the wet towels with him.
I've used several plumbers before and received spotty work and have been charged a fortune (most of these plumbers you would recognize their names because they advertise a lot). I'm glad to have found Chavez Plumbing. I will use them again.
UPDATE: Another review for Chavez Plumbing - July 31, 2012
I needed to replace the washers in my Kohler kitchen sink faucet. I've changed washers in previous faucets I owned that knew this would be a simple job. I received a free washer kit from Kohler (it has a lifetime warranty), and started taking the faucet apart...I only needed to remove the outside body. After about an hour of pulling and tugging, I couldn't seem to remove the body of the faucet to replace the washers. I even tried using a screw driver to leverage it off. Nothing worked.
Feeling stupid and embarrassed, I called Chavez Plumbing. They came out the next morning. Well, they pulled and tugged and even added some lubrication and after an hour, couldn't get the outside body off either. I contacted Kohler and they told me they would send me another faucet.
Now, here's what you won't believe...Chavez Plumbing would not charge me for the visit, or the hour they spent working!! They told me they didn't fix it, so they shouldn't charge me. I told them when I received the new faucet I would call them, which I did. They came out the second time, took out the old faucet and installed the new one. Took about an hour. They only charged me $140.
Another great experience with Chavez Plumbing!
