Best Leak Detection Service in Houston TX

Abacus Plumbing, Air Conditioning & Electrical Electrician
This review would be 5 stars, for (1) technician quality, and (2) a sub-panel installation job they did, where you need great expertise and a market price.But it's three stars to serve as a caution to consumers for their electrical work on smaller jobs. Be sure to shop around. I had 7-9 CO/Smoke detectors go haywire. For $400, a technician tested all wires and accurately diagnosed the detectors as being EOL. Money well spent. The voltage from the ceiling wires was fine.But then they quoted me $2800 to rewire the connectors and install new ones. I generally just pay contractors what they ask. I don't have time to haggle, and my time is more valuable not doing so. But this seemed a bridge too far.Why was it so much? They wanted to install their own detectors, which had incompatible wiring. Still, even at a marked up cost of say, $100 a detector, I couldn't see how they needed $2800.So, why couldn't they just acquire matching detectors (if they still made them) and not rewire at all? It becomes a cost + maybe an hour of labor job. Turns out the same detectors are at Lowes for $45. So let's say 9 detectors at $100, or $900, plus two hours of labor, or $400. That quote should have been $1300, and that is already a bit rich.So what did I do? We spent $380 buying 9 detectors. I popped out the old ones, screwed in the new ones and connected the same plug, no rewiring. Took me an hour to test all of them and activate the battery backup. 1 hour. I only needed 7 detectors.So it's fixed now. 1 hour of time and $330 in parts. And they wanted $2800. Abacus tried to take me for a ride, not so much intentionally I think, but out of the laziness of just selling their standard detector replacement package, where they rewire and then warranty the work. It's true my DIY effort, which a 15 year old teen could do, doesn't have a warranty. But at detectors do and wires generally don't go bad in 7 years. So I'm good without it.

T&Z ALL Services Electrician
Yesterday you sent a handyman to work on some repairs around our house in Houston. I am pleased to tell you how very pleased my parents were with him, his workmanship and the price. What was once an initial request to repair a leak in our bathroom turned into two additional jobs! One to fix our kitchen ceiling fan and the other to put up new blinds in my office (for which I am very thankful!). To my parents delight, the handyman was punctual, polite and very easy to get along with. He was professional and down to earth. I'm sure he also patiently listened to my father's explanations of how his own attempts to fix these things did not pass the bar of my mother's stern approval. On behalf of my parents, and me we would not hesitate to call T&Z All Services any time household repairs are required again. Great Job!
