Criscoe Ventures Llc Dba Best Austin Handyman & Remodeling

Criscoe Ventures Llc operating as Best Austin Handyman & Remodeling handles plumbing work across Austin, TX. They focus on pipe repairs, leak detection, and fixture replacements that often tie into larger home fixes. Local homeowners reach out when water lines fail or drains clog up, especially with the heavy rains and hard water common in central Texas. The crew keeps jobs moving by showing up with the right tools and getting straight to the source of the problem instead of creating extra mess or delays for the property owner.

They handle kitchen renovations after water leaks by replacing damaged sections and restoring flow, as one customer noted after hiring them for a full repair that left the space usable again. Crew members like Amy, Barrett, and project manager Sam handle electrical tie-ins during patio projects and sort out wiring unknowns before they turn into bigger issues. Home prep jobs for sales include multiple small plumbing tasks alongside other work, where the team pays close attention to details like securing lines and testing each connection. Customers mention clear updates on unknowns during these jobs so nothing catches them off guard.

Reviewers keep coming back for the steady quality on repairs and the way the crew communicates timelines without overpromising. Speed stands out when leaks need quick attention, and prices stay reasonable for the scope of work completed in Austin homes. Attention to detail on mixed plumbing and handyman tasks earns repeat mentions, even as one deck job drew complaints about finish quality. DIRT Score 4.29 from 28 reviews on Finds.

“Highly recommend Best Austin Handyman and Remodeling. I hired them to renovate my kitchen after a water leak, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. I’m genuinely happy to have found such a wonderful company that is truly trustworthy and reliable. BAH is now my number one company for home improvements, and I will absolutely be using them for future projects. Barrett came out early to walk through the plans and offered thoughtful suggestions that really elevated the final look of the kitchen. Just as important, BAH clearly does not have a hidden agenda to charge customers inflated or unnecessary prices. Barrett was transparent and honest about costs, and several items I expected to be very expensive turned out to be far more reasonable than anticipated. I ran into significant issues with a big-box retailer regarding cabinets, and BAH was incredibly patient and supportive throughout that process. My only regret is not using BAH’s suppliers for cabinets and countertops from the beginning. Sam, the project manager, and the entire crew were excellent—professional, knowledgeable, and great communicators. Every trade involved, including electricians, tile, plumbers, and drywall, did high-quality work and were genuinely pleasant to have in our home. From the front office to the owner to the teams on site, BAH consistently went above and beyond. If you’re considering a remodel, stop looking and give them a call. You’ll be glad you did.”

“We recently used Best Austin Handyman and Remodeling for our patio and some electrical work. Amy and Barrett are extremely easy to work with. The project manager Sam is a great asset to the business. There were some unknowns in electrical work that were communicated ahead of time and when the wiring was opened up, the technical side was handled very professionally, in consultation with us and laying out the options involved. When we requested repeat texture work with drywall/ceiling, that was done too. This is a business that does their job well.”

“If I could give less than one star I would. These guys started "repairing" my deck in May! It's not quality work: uneven, nails already splitting wood, exposed tarp; it's not even finished, my yard is trashed, and they aren't returning our calls or texts anymore. They've been MIA for 3 whole weeks! Hello Barrett???? Nick???? At least be a man and admit ur never coming back to finish the awful job. In response to owner’s reply: It took almost 8 months for my deck to be replaced. It was never a repair job. For over 3 months I couldn’t get in touch with anyone. Then when I did, you asked for thousands of dollars more. I had to create a walkway from planks you guys left in my yard to make a walkway out my backdoor for myself, pets, and my small child because I was left with a 3ft drop out my backdoor. There was no miscommunication between myself and my mother. Worst experience with contractors I’ve ever had.”

“I found Austin’s Best Handyman through the LGBT Chamber of Commerce, and I’m so glad I did! Sam and Barrett are absolutely incredible. They helped with a number of projects to get my home ready to sell, and their attention to detail was top-notch. They truly cared for my property like it was their own—making sure everything was in the best possible condition before I put it on the market. The transformation was amazing, and I honestly can’t thank them enough. Professional, reliable, kind, and super easy to work with—I would hire them again in a heartbeat (and probably will!). Highly recommend!”

“Used Barrett and team for our bathroom remodel and countless other projects in our condo. So thankful for all they do. Will continue to use them for any future needs.”
