Ron’s Irving Service

This place has completely fallen off the cliff now that Steven has left. I scheduled service on a Monday to remove shower handle so I could replace brass escutcheon, which I found on Ebay. I took entire day day off but no one showed up so I called around 4:30 & guy said technician was running late; didn’t show up until 7PM. He ended up spending about 20 minutes or so to replace a $ 20 cartridge & charged me $ 205. I spoke with owner a few days later & he basically said it’s standard for them to mark up parts. $ 100 for $ 20 part is unacceptable. Will never use this company for anything in future.

Bathrooms clogged up all of a sudden Wednesday night. Tried everything from snake to cleaner to plunging and nothing would work. Called one of the places I found on google to get an estimate and came out to give an estimate and was extremely high. Had seen the reviews for Ron’s on Unilocal and gave them a call. They were able to give a price over the phone before scheduling the appointment which was great. The guys appeared and were done in less than 5 minutes and was more than 50% less than the first company. Very knowledgable and polite. Both guys were extremely professional and offers a 30 day guarantee on their work. HIGHLY recommend them for anyone looking for work needing done. Fast, local, and professional all in 1.

We had them out to fix our AC. Bubba was a little late, but he called and let us know he was going to be well ahead of time, so we didn’t sit waiting around. Then he let us know again 30 minutes before he came so we could meet him. He fixed the a/​c, and at a fair price. No complaints.

These guys are now 5 of 5 in my book. Had them out to clear out my drain. In and out in no time. Always have the correct diagnosis. I’ve had them do tub repair and sink maintenance. Very happy with their work, prices and knowledge. CS was good too. Got a phone call, and an estimated arrival time, which they met. That sure makes scheduling my day easier.

To update info by a previous reviewer. They do not give free estimates. That is misleading. They charge $ 99 just to walk on the property and see what your problem is. They will then tell you, «for free» what the cost to replace your AC is.
I also saw they say they have ²⁴⁄₇ service. Yet when I called in the afternoon, they wouldn’t have anyone available until the next day, after two other homes were repaired. Not even a guarantee of what time a service man would arrive.
I’m left hanging and not impressed with this company at all. Ron, be honest and don’t act like you’ll fix my leak at 3 am if your guys only work from 9 – 5.

We had developed a mysterious leak, and that was all we knew. The guys from Ron’s arrived promptly, were able to quickly diagnose the problem, and get it fixed. They were professional and the price was reasonable.

Deep roots
I started seeing my water drain a bit slower after the holidays. I knew what that meant, my big beautiful trees were putting in roots into my drains. My previous experience with a plumber had been less than great so I started the dreaded search for a new local one on Unilocal.It was there that I saw a familiar face, Marilyn M., I knew I could trust her.
I called Ron’s and before the first ring was over, a live person was on the phone. I told her I needed some roots rooted. She explained that the cost would be $ 99.50 for an hour and if it took longer than 1 hour it would be $ 149.50. I was hesitant, I worried if this was a bait & switch, but she followed with don’t worry it’ almost always less than an hour. I said okay let’s make an appointment, it was 10 am and she said, we can be there about 11 am.
15 mins before 11, I had a knock on the door, Steven introduced himself and said don’t worry we will get this taken care of in no time. 20 mins later all roots were shredded and they were putting their things back in the van. My cost was $ 99.50, I was very happy!
Twisted Root

This is my first review!
The plumbers just left my house — it is about 8pm — 22 degrees — and the problem I had was with the water connections to my washer in my unheated garage. The main plumber was courteous and knowledgeable. He found the issue/​s and got to work right away. The assistant plumber even cleaned everything up prior to leaving. When I called to make the appt the person who answered was also very courteous, however, alerted me that they may not make it out today. But they did in this bad weather with bad roads and had to work in my cold garage. And they did not charge me a crazy rate. It was a fair price for the work done and the time they were at my house. I am relieved to have a very good experience.

I am one very satisfied customer!
Ron’s is a small shop in Irving, I think family owned, and they provide quality work and service for plumbing, air conditioning, heating & electric, for a fraction of the cost of the «big guys». They are insured, Licensed, and have a manufacturers warranty on parts and 30 days on labor. Service is provided in the DFW Metroplex.
I had a dimmer switch that was broken, and a ceiling fan speed switch that had also bit the dust. I had received an estimate from one of the «big guys» who advertise on TV («we’ll fix it in a flash») that was exorbitant, and then I recalled Ron’s who I had used several years ago and after desperately searching, found the business card. Thank heavens my memory hasn’t gotten too bad! (Silly me, of course I could find them on the net, but knew that darn business card was around somewhere)
Called Ron’s on Friday and was scheduled for an a.m. visit Monday. Wayne called @ 0915 and said he was on the way.
Wayne was quick to diagnose the problem, left to get the necessary parts, returned and had repaired both issues within 20 minutes. He moved my table which was under the fan back in place and cleaned up all the debris from the repair work.
And, big DRUMROLL… my cost for Wayne’s excellent work was slightly LESS than one-​half of my estimate from the «big guys». Very impressive I say!
More money now for some holiday partying !! Call Ron’s if you ever need any competent, professional, reasonably priced home repair.
