DIRTFinds

Best Plumbers in Houston, TX

We list 343 plumbers in Houston, Texas. The DIRT Score runs 0–5 and is built from review volume and rating, years in business, license signals where we have them, and response time.

56 of those listings currently carry a DIRT Score. The average DIRT Score in Houston for this trade is 4.5 (0–5 scale); the highest is 5.0.

Before you book, ask for the license number and check it against the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. Ask whether the price you're quoted is flat-rate or hourly, and whether the trip charge is on top. Get it in writing before anyone opens a wall.

Gulf humidity and storm seasons punish cheap materials — ask about warranties that still mean something after the next tropical system.

Every listing here is a real contractor page on Finds — not a paid placement.

Right now the highest-scored plumber in Houston on this list is Capital Care Plumbing, with a DIRT Score of 4.97 across 516 reviews. That score measures track record, not who's best for every job. Use the list as a shortlist, then call two or three.

How much do plumbers charge per hour in Houston, Texas?

We don't publish an hourly rate for Houston plumbers until we can back it with aggregated, anonymised numbers from real jobs. Get three written quotes for the same scope, ask whether the number is flat-rate or hourly, and ask whether a trip charge sits on top.

Who is the most affordable plumber in Houston?

We don't rank by price. Get three quotes for the same scope in writing, and ask each one whether the trip charge is included or added. The cheapest number is often the one with the most left out of it.

How do I find a trustworthy plumber in Houston?

Check three things. One: the license — check the license against the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners register. Two: the review pattern, not just the score. Three: whether they'll put the scope in writing before they start.

How can you tell if a plumber is any good?

Read the two-star reviews, not the five-star ones. Two-star reviews tell you what happens when the job goes sideways — whether they came back, argued, or charged again to fix their own work.

How do I know if a plumber is overcharging me?

Get two more quotes for the identical scope, in writing. Wide spreads usually mean different scopes. Watch for a low quote that grows once work starts — a written scope is the only thing that stops that.

What's a normal call-out or trip charge in Houston?

We don't publish a made-up Houston trip-charge number. Ask each plumber whether the first visit is a trip charge, a diagnostic fee, or rolled into a flat job price — before they roll.

Do plumbers in Texas have to be licensed?

Yes. Plumbers in Texas are licensed by the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners, and the register is public.
