The 15 plumbers serving Forney, ranked.

We read 2,242 reviews across Google, Yelp and BBB for the 49 plumbers serving Forney — including the one-star reviews other directories bury — and ranked them the way we'd rank them for a friend. 34 of the 49 list 24/7 hours — but "open 24 hours" on a Google profile and "answered at 2 a.m." in a customer review are not the same claim, and we quote the reviews that tell you which is which. Rankings are not for sale.

Forney's problem isn't finding a plumber; it's telling them apart — the median rating here is 4.9, and when everyone has five stars, the stars stop helping. 31 of these companies carry 100+ reviews — enough history for real patterns to show. The patterns differ more than the ratings do: 33 of the 49 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: Baker Brothers Plumbing, Air & Electric alone carries 24,623 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.

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: 1,154 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 ↓

Our sample skews heavily toward critical reviews — it disagrees with the Google average shown above.

Why we're cautious

  • Pattern of aggressive upselling on major systems: multiple reviewers report being quoted thousands for attic insulation, duct cleaning, or line replacement without independent verification, later finding the actual issue was minor (3 of 191 reviews)
  • High variance in customer experience (34-point spread in dimension scores): wide swing between 5-star emergency jobs and 1-star billing disputes suggests inconsistent quality control or technician accountability (4 of 191 reviews)
  • Severe pricing inconsistency: 4 separate reviews cite quotes for simple fixes that appear grossly inflated ($600 for $27 part, $800 for loose connection, $250 for basic wax seal replacement, $12,000 for attic insulation estimate) (4 of 191 reviews)

To be fair

  • Fast emergency response: multiple reviewers report same-day or rapid arrival, including Saturday evening emergency service (cited in 4 of 191 reviews)
  • Consistently professional and courteous technicians: 13+ reviews specifically praise technician attitude, knowledge, and friendliness by name (cited in 8 of 191 reviews)
  • Strong workmanship and efficiency: jobs completed quickly with clean-up, protective measures, and transparent explanations of work performed (cited in 5 of 191 reviews)

  • High complaint volume on Yelp (1.9/5 across 100 reviews) vs. Google (4.8/5 across 582 reviews): Yelp complaints cluster around overcharging, misdiagnosis, incomplete work, and aggressive upselling—suggests potential selection bias toward dissatisfied customers who experienced billing disputes

To be fair

  • Rapid emergency response: Multiple reviewers mention same-day or within-1-hour arrival, including after 5pm calls (cited in 3 of 184 reviews)

Called for an appointment and got one quickly. They would not provide a price even though the guy that came had a price book with fixed prices. $350 to run a camera through the drain. Originally he told me that it would be $500 but I told him I wouldn't pay …

What reviewers complain about in Forney

The repeated complaint patterns our read surfaced, business by business — each links to the card where the supporting quotes live. How we find these →

  • Baker Brothers Plumbing, Air & ElectricPattern of aggressive upselling on major systems: multiple reviewers report being quoted thousands for attic insulation, duct cleaning, or line replacement without independent verification, later finding the actual issue was minor
  • Baker Brothers Plumbing, Air & ElectricHigh variance in customer experience (34-point spread in dimension scores): wide swing between 5-star emergency jobs and 1-star billing disputes suggests inconsistent quality control or technician accountability
  • Blue Star Plumbing LLCToilet replacement bid quoted at $650 by one tech then declined; reviewer paid the $49.99 service fee to send him away
  • Blue Star Plumbing LLCYelp reviewer reports a full week without hot water through Monday-Friday repeat visits with new parts ordered daily
  • Public Service PlumbersSignificant platform rating gap: Google 4.9/5 (1844 reviews) vs. Yelp 3.2/5 (56 reviews) suggests negative experiences concentrated on Yelp with billing, pricing, and service reliability complaints.
  • Public Service PlumbersDamage liability and disputed responsibility: 1 review reports plumber broke a pipe during work, company denied fault, and demanded $800–900 to repair—customer later confirmed plumber error via independent inspection.
  • Public Service PlumbersPoor escalation and customer service recovery: 2+ reviewers report difficulty reaching supervisors, dismissive office staff, and lack of accountability when issues arise.
  • Sunrise PlumbingYelp 1-star alleges Sunrise diagnosed a slab leak that wasn't there and charged $10,000 to repair a line that wasn't leaking

How we rank the plumbers on this page

  1. We read the reviews — all of them we can get. For each plumber serving Forney we pulled up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB and read the full text. For this page: 1,154 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.
