Torres Plumbing

Torres Plumbing is a plumbing outfit based in Brownsville, Texas. They handle the kinds of sewer and drain problems that pop up for homeowners in the region, including backups that send sewage into yards and cause toilets to bubble. Mr. Torres typically takes the calls himself and heads out to assess what's wrong with the lines. The work often involves older plumbing setups common in Brownsville homes, where tree roots or shifting ground can block main lines running to the alley. They deal with both quick fixes and larger replacements when a simple unclog won't do the job.

Mr. Torres responds to calls about backed up main sewer lines by digging up spots near the house to reach the clog. He has fixed cases where sewage flooded yards after toilets bubbled overnight, completing the repairs at a price customers found reasonable for the size of the task. When the clog resists simple methods he recommends replacing the line all the way to the alley. One review mentioned getting a second plumber named Mario who used different tools to inspect the pipe. The work includes these urgent outdoor sewer jobs as well as starting indoor plumbing fixes, though follow through varies depending on the situation.

Homeowners in Brownsville have given Torres Plumbing feedback that shows both successes and shortfalls on sewer jobs. Positive notes highlight fast response times and solid fixes on yard backups along with reasonable charges. But several reviews point to unclog attempts that did not work, full replacement suggestions that proved unneeded, and situations where payment was taken without finishing the work or returning calls. The inconsistent outcomes mean some basic jobs go well while complex line issues lead to frustration over unfinished results and costs without resolution. DIRT Score 1.14 from 10 reviews on Finds.

“My family woke up to the sound of bubbling toilets & discovered that sewage had backed up into the yard. Mr. Torres came to the house immediately, identified our problem and made the appropriate repairs. He charged a fair price for a sizable job, and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a plumber.”

“Main sewer line was backed up. Torres dug up the area, tried to unclog but was unable to do so. He proceeded to tell me the whole line needed to be replaced to the alley in a diagonal line. Although he did not unclog, he charged me $200. I decided to get a second opinion. The plumber, Mario used a powerful tool, unclogged and repaired. The mainline ran in a straight direction not diagonally.”

“Mr. Torres has been an amazing plumber!”
