I called Jim when another plumber flaked out on me after Thanksgiving, 2023. He came out as quickly as possible and took care of a complex situation with care, superior workmanship, and humor in a conscientious manner. I have now called on him multiple times in the last six months, as I have been readying a family house for sale after it was mostly vacant for the past year. Jim has provided valuable and cost saving counsel. You can do no better for plumbing, than Jim! read more

Jim knows his stuff. A long-term master plumber with a quick understanding of your trouble, he will relentlessly bang out a job and make sure it's right. He might seem gruff, but don't let him fool you. Next time someone asks, "Hey, do you know a good plumber?", you'll say, "Yes, as a matter of fact, I do. " read more

We needed a new water heater (our old one was ancient and on its last legs). Jim was super responsive (same-day), and came out and gave us a very reasonable quote the following day. Our job was certainly not "run of the mill," as the previous owners of our home definitely made shortcuts versus keeping things up to code. Despite the project taking much longer than he anticipated, the cost did not change. We feel super confident that the work Jim did will last for years to come. Also, he is a very friendly and affable guy - full of fun facts and interesting stories! He runs his business with honesty and integrity. Thanks again Jim! read more

I shopped for weeks to find a good reliable plumber. Jim is very honest and really wants the best for your project. I had many plumbers give me outrageous bids and try to take advantage of me. It's very hard when you're a single woman, and not familiar with the questions to ask or really know what the truth is. Jim will explain everything and you can tell he has a passion for what he does. Not only would you get a good plumber, you'll get a very honest one. Which now a days doesn't happen very often. read more

Another plumber told me that I needed to replace my water heater. One of the thermostats and elements had gone bad. Jim was able to replace the parts without costing me the expense of getting a new water heater. I was so happy not to have to pay thousands of dollars. Jim is truly a nice person and knows a lot about plumbing. He's very easy to talk with and takes the time to diagnose the problem and make sure everything is in good shape. At every step he explained what he was doing and why it was necessary. You won't go wrong if you call Jim. read more

I cannot brag enough about how amazing Jim was in a moment of crisis! I called another company and they came out and gave me a ridiculously inflated estimate, while they attempted to re-work the pricing, I got a hold of Jim and he gave me a fair price and came out to fix my hot water heater that day. Jim stayed late to make sure that I would be taken care of and didn't have to take another cold shower! Jim is very knowledgeable, kind and clearly puts a lot of hard work and care into what he does. If you are looking for an honest plumber, you can't go wrong with Republic Pipeworks!! read more

Hands down the best and fairest plumber in Austin and surrounding area. Jim worked long and hard to repair our sewer line and was priced 20% below the next lowest competitor. He does excellent work and is always smiling. He showed up on time and finished ahead of schedule. read more

Jim is awesome. He helped us with a gas line extension to our grill and has helped us with a bunch of other problems previously. He's the only plumber we'll call. read more

My husband and I just moved to Austin and Jim is the second plumber we've tried. Needless to say, we won't be using anyone else. He showed up on a Friday night in bad weather within 30 minutes, fixed our kitchen sink for a good price, and texted two days later to make sure everything was working okay. Excellent service...highly recommended!! read more

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. read more

I had to call Jim one evening at a little before 7 pm because a pipe had broken and it was going to get below freezing that night AND we needed water. Jim came right away was very professional and obviously well versed in his knowledge. He did an emergency repair in order for us to get the water turned back on. He came back a few days later to complete the repair, he applied the money I paid for the emergency call to the final repair (which was great). Again, Jim was incredibly professional and very personable. I will call him again and I highly recommend him to any one who needs a plumber. read more

Jim at Republic has handled several plumbing repairs and installations around my house. I always felt as though I was their most important client, every time he came to my house. Prices were reasonable, work was super. He even fixed things that were not strictly necessary to the repair in question, but that the plumber before had done incorrectly. He asked me first and explained the consequences of leaving it as it was. I felt like he was doing things the way hewould want them done at his own house. All this and still at a very fair price. read more

Honest, on-time, thorough and reasonably priced. I will definitely call Jim again when I need plumbing/gas line work done right!

Jim is amazing. I've used him on numerous occasions and he has always been fair, courteous and quickly gets the job done. We originally used another plumber to install our tub, but he did a terrible job, so we contacted Jim who was able to fix the previous plumber's work. Then we got a flood in our kitchen and Jim was able to come quickly to turn off the water and then returned later to fix the complicated leak issue. We only trust him for all our plumbing needs. I highly recommend him!! read more
