Leaks, drains, water heaters, and the burst line you didn't plan for. Lawson Plumbing & Drain handles everyday repairs and the messy ones across Austin, Mueller, and Windsor Park — and we tell you the price before we pick up a wrench.
What we do
Need a plumber in Austin who shows up when they say, tells you what's wrong in plain words, and doesn't sell you work you don't need? That's what we do all day. Lawson Plumbing & Drain handles everyday repairs and the messy ones — leaking pipes, slow drains, dead water heaters, and the burst line you didn't budget for — for homeowners across Austin, Mueller, Windsor Park, and the communities around them.
Services
No call-center runaround. Call with the symptom, we'll match it to the right repair and tell you the price range up front.
Damaged, leaking, or aging water lines don't fix themselves — and the longer they sit, the more drywall, flooring, and framing they take with them. We locate the compromised section, explain whether a spot repair or a full re-route makes sense for your home, and complete the work with code-compliant materials. No mystery joints, no patch-and-pray.
Call about your pipe repairSlow kitchen drains, backed-up tubs, and main-line blockages usually start small and turn into weekends of standing water. We clear kitchen, bath, and main drains, tell you what we found — roots, grease, debris — and flag anything that points to a bigger sewer issue. Clear pricing before we start, no upsell to a replacement you don't need yet.
Call about drain cleaningCold showers at 6 .m. are the worst way to start a Monday. If your tank is leaking, rumbling, or past its service life, we walk you through standard and tankless options that fit your home, your hot-water habits, and your budget — then install to manufacturer spec so the actually holds. Old unit hauled away, job site left clean.
Call about water heater installationThe leak you can hear is easy. The one behind a wall, under a slab, or buried in the yard is the one that ruins ceilings and runs up water bills. We use targeted troubleshooting to narrow down visible and hidden leaks, confirm before we cut into anything, and repair only what needs repairing — not your whole floor plan.
Call about leak detectionActive leak, burst pipe, water climbing the wall — call and a real plumber (not a call center) talks you through shutting off the water, then prioritizes your call against the day's schedule. We carry common repair parts on the truck so most urgent repairs are handled in one visit when we arrive. For after-hours flooding, we'll help you stabilize until morning.
Call for emergency repairRunning, leaking, clogged, or just unreliable — a bad toilet wastes water all day and wrecks a bathroom's usability. We rebuild or replace the flush and fill assemblies, reseal the base, and stop the slow leak you've been ignoring. If the tank or bowl is cracked beyond repair, we'll tell you straight and quote a replacement, not a patch that won't hold.
