Lamar Plumbing Inc

In regards to quality of work, I would say they are good. Average. They did a hydrostatic test on a home we are purchasing. However, they did not inform me that they start charging the moment they leave their office for travel time if you “live a ways away” (we live in calallen - that’s 15 minutes according to GPS....that’s still in town) and they charged for 2 hours of work at $95 per hour for one guy, and $50 For a half hour for another guy) They called me at 8:08 saying they were leaving now. They arrived between 8:25 and 8:30. They were in the home working for 55 minutes (8:30-9:25...I arrived back to my current home at 9:41 as that’s when my realtor text me so I had a time stamp), yet I was still charged for 2 hours of work. At Max it should be 1 hour of work and 15-20 minutes of travel time. The travel time should not be an additional hour, nor have a rate based off of the labor rate. Especially when they do not inform you of it. And then when questioned say “well that’s the usual if you live a ways out”. No it’s not the usual. Other companies I got quotes from did not have travel charge because we still live in corpus. And if they did, they’d be forthcoming about it and not tell you after the fact. Go with McCain plumbing. It’s a flat $95 for a hydrostatic test and $35 if they need to find your cleanout. The only reason we couldn’t go with McCain was because the earliest they could get out was the date we needed to come to an agreement on the contract, and wouldn’t leave time for any further negotiations.

Paul was absolutely awesome. He repaired a Moen part that no other plumber had been able to despite my attempts.

Adam & Trevor were at my home within and hour and a half of calling in my request. They promptly fixed my problem and gave me great advice to avoid problems in the future. Great guys, great service! Thank you Lamar plumbing!

Great service! Came to the house in a timely manner. Trevor and Clayton were their to provide service, they were very knowledgeable. They were fast at their job, very clean, and very polite guys! I highly recommend!

Had a leak in pipe to water heater. Plumber said he had to go get parts to fix it. Like seriously your a plumber and you dont have a piece of pvc in your truck or couplings? Oh i know why!! Because you charge by the hour and you could have fixed it in less than 30 minutes. Instead they charged $250 for the small job. Then to top it off the next day the new pvc pipe he installed burst with a mess everywhere. At first i thought ok good company for coming back to fix it. But hell no. They are trying to get more money for coming back out to fix their mistake. I do not recommend this company at all. They did a sloppy job.
