Plumbing repairs in Austin — the small jobs that waste the most water
A running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a day. A dripping faucet adds up to a bill you notice. Low pressure at one tap is a clue; low pressure everywhere is a different problem. JB Plumbing handles the everyday repairs that keep an Austin home or business running — quickly, with an upfront price, and without treating a small job like a small customer.
What we fix
Running or constantly refilling toilets (flappers, fill valves, flush valves). Dripping and leaking faucets. Low or uneven water pressure — pressure-reducing valves, clogged aerators, or a leak. Leaking shut-off valves and supply lines. Garbage disposals that hum, jam or leak. Slow drains and minor clogs. Leaking hose bibs and outdoor faucets. Noisy pipes — water hammer and loose lines. Water heater nuisances like a dripping relief valve. Anything you’d describe on the phone as “it’s probably a small thing, but…”
Diagnose first
The same symptom can have very different causes. Low pressure at every fixture usually means the pressure regulator has failed or there’s a leak; low pressure at one tap is almost always scale in the aerator or cartridge — Austin’s hard water at work. We test rather than guess, so you pay for the right fix once.
Homes and businesses
We handle the same repairs for small commercial spaces — restrooms, break rooms, utility sinks — with the same upfront pricing and the same 24-hour phone line.

General Plumbing Repairs questions, answered
Why does my toilet keep running?▼
Usually a worn flapper that no longer seals, or a fill valve that doesn’t shut off. Both are quick fixes — and a running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a day, so it’s worth doing soon.
Why is my water pressure low?▼
At one fixture: almost always mineral scale in the aerator or cartridge. Everywhere: the pressure-reducing valve has likely failed, or there’s a leak. We test to find out which.
Do you charge more for small jobs?▼
No — every job gets the same upfront price after diagnosis, and estimates are free on most services.
Do you do repairs for businesses?▼
Yes — restrooms, break rooms and utility areas for small commercial spaces across Austin and Travis County.
Can you come after hours?▼
We’re open 24 hours a day with emergency service available. For a non-urgent repair we’ll schedule a time that suits you.
