FastPlumber near me

The 15 plumbers serving Indianapolis, ranked.

We track 32 plumbing companies working within 20 miles of Indianapolis and have read 159 of their reviews across Google, Yelp and BBB — including every one-star review we could find. 21 answer 24/7 per their Google listings; where reviewers describe real middle-of-the-night calls, that evidence is quoted on the cards below. Rankings are not for sale.

Indianapolis's problem isn't finding a plumber; it's telling them apart — the median rating here is 4.8, and when everyone has five stars, the stars stop helping. 26 of these companies carry 100+ reviews — enough history for real patterns to show. The patterns differ more than the ratings do: 12 of the 32 have a repeated complaint pattern in their reviews — quotes that grew mid-job, unreturned callbacks — flagged and quoted on their cards below. One number worth knowing: Mister Quik Home Services alone carries 8,535 Google reviews — the deepest review base in this radius. Across the reviews we analyzed, the work named most often is water heaters and drain clearing.

Updated Jul 11, 202620-mile radius of downtown IndianapolisHow we rank
How we rank — the 60-second version

What we read: for each plumber, up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB — the full text, not just the stars. For this page: 75 reviews across 15 businesses.

What moves a plumber up: repeated, independent evidence of showing up when promised, fair and upfront pricing, and work that holds. One glowing review counts for little; twenty that agree count for a lot.

What moves a plumber down: repeated complaint patterns — surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — especially when they show up on more than one platform.

What never moves the ranking: money. One clearly labeled sponsored slot may appear above this list; it never changes the order below it.

Our take on each plumber is our opinion, grounded in the reviews we quote on this page. Full methodology ↓

Water everywhere right now? Shut off your main valve first, then jump to the 24/7 picks ↓. Every plumber below is one tap to call.

Mister Quik Home Services

We'd call someone else first
4.7 (8,535 Google reviews) 5.6 mi from downtown IndianapolisNot a 24/7 shop

Consistently excellent across the board with 95+ scores on reliability, workmanship, and responsiveness—the team to call at 2am, though initial pricing may surprise until they explain the value.

Small sample — we've analyzed only 5 of 8,535 reviews so far. Treat this as a first read.

Why we're cautious

  • One reviewer gave company 2.5 stars overall despite 5-star rating, citing poor experience with the company itself—praise was directed exclusively at individual technician Art, suggesting inconsistency in service quality across staff (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Exceptional responsiveness to emergencies: technicians arrive on time with courteous demeanor, and team works extended hours (until 8pm) to source parts for urgent repairs (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)
  • 5 of 5 reviews praise communication and respect: technicians explain work in detail, answer all questions, and handle situations with professionalism (cited in 4 of 5 reviews)
  • Strong customer retention and team consistency: one 6-year customer specifically requests same technicians by name and credits team coordination (cited in 1 of 5 reviews)

Justin and team were amazing. Installation process easy and they were able to answer all our questions. Highly recommend Mister Quick!

Why we're cautious

  • Potential stress management issue: one technician became visibly frustrated and lost composure during a difficult job, stepping away to regain composure and later becoming irritated during cost explanation (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Communication breakdown on pricing and service packages—one reviewer found cost explanations confusing and felt pressured by upselling, causing frustration during already-stressful repair (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Exceptional emergency responsiveness—water heater replaced same-day from 9:30am to 4pm, and another clog cleared within hours of morning call (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)

Small sample — we've analyzed only 5 of 2,515 reviews so far. Treat this as a first read.

Why we're cautious

  • Critical failure to honor explicit customer requests: One reviewer documented telling the company 4 separate times not to call before 12pm (works third shift), was promised 4 times that notes would be added to account, yet the company called at 10am anyway—indicating systemic disregard for documented preferences. (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Aggressive and persistent upselling: One reviewer reports being repeatedly pushed for additional appointments, subscription services, and add-ons via calls and texts, despite already purchasing a maintenance plan. (1 of 5 reviews)
  • Pricing concerns: One reviewer was charged $650 for removal of a recommended freeze-prevention system that failed, and had to pay additional remediation costs after a pipe burst. (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Fast emergency dispatch and after-hours availability: 2 reviewers specifically praise same-day response and weekend availability, including one technician staying late Saturday to diagnose a drain issue. (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)
  • High-quality workmanship: 4 of 5 reviews explicitly praise technicians' skill, efficiency, and professionalism, with one emergency pipe repair completed in under 90 minutes on a Sunday. (cited in 4 of 5 reviews)
  • Customer-focused technicians: One technician provided unsolicited water-conservation tips and proactively managed water usage during service; another stayed late on a weekend to help diagnose an issue. (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)

  • Mr. Plumber by Metzler & HallamPricing fairness score of 0 contradicts uniformly 5-star reviews; suggests either limited data on pricing dimension or unresolved complaints on other platforms not visible in Google sample
  • Summers Plumbing Heating & CoolingCritical failure to honor explicit customer requests: One reviewer documented telling the company 4 separate times not to call before 12pm (works third shift), was promised 4 times that notes would be added to account, yet the company called at 10am anyway—indicating systemic disregard for documented preferences.
  • Pristine Plumbing1 of 5 reviews reports potential price gouging targeting vulnerable customer (elderly, fixed income); reviewer provided detailed before/after photos and corroborating neighbor testimony
  • Home Heroes Plumbing Heating & AirPost-installation quality control gap: 1 of 5 reviews documents a significant leak from a loose pipe connection occurring days after a major installation, suggesting potential oversight in final inspection despite eventual resolution
  • Hope Plumbing, Heating & CoolingProjects frequently exceed initial scope and cost—initial toilet clog evolved into major excavation work requiring customer cost-sharing to manage budget
  • Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of IndianapolisCommunication breakdown on pricing and service packages—one reviewer found cost explanations confusing and felt pressured by upselling, causing frustration during already-stressful repair

How we rank the plumbers on this page

  1. We read the reviews — all of them we can get. For each plumber serving Indianapolis we pulled up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB and read the full text. For this page: 75 reviews across 15 businesses.
  2. Patterns beat anecdotes. A plumber moves up when independent reviewers keep describing the same behavior: showing up when promised, quoting before working, work that holds. One rave changes nothing.
  3. Complaints count double when they repeat.Surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — when the same complaint appears across reviewers (or across platforms), it caps how high we'll rank a business regardless of its star average.
  4. Money never moves the ranking.A plumber can buy the clearly-labeled sponsored slot at the top of the page — visibility, not endorsement. A business we wouldn't recommend can't buy the slot at all, and no payment changes the ranked order.
  5. Our take is our opinion.It's grounded in the reviews we quote and count on this page — check our evidence and disagree with us if you like. That's the point of showing it.
Every quotation on this page is reproduced verbatimfrom a publicly posted review and attributed to its author, star rating, platform and date. Star averages and review counts are Google's (or Yelp's) as of our last data pull. “Rating mix” charts describe only the set of reviews we analyzed, which we state on every card.
