Clarke Kent
Plumbing · Austin, Texas · Est. 1986
Clarke Kent Plumbing has been locally owned in Austin since 1986. Our plumbers are trained to diagnose the problem — and then to educate you about your options, in plain English, before a wrench turns.
Manufacturers have selected us for factory certification on commercial boiler start-ups and residential digital shower installs. But the line we live by is simpler: regardless of when you call, a real person answers. We sell service as well as plumbing.
Residential and commercial, drains and sewer, water heaters and repipes — one shop, forty years, same phone number.
They came out at 9am on a Saturday and fixed my water line. I had called four other plumbers — Clarke Kent was the only one who showed up.

How a visit goesFlat quote before work
STEP 01
A real person, 24/7. We take the details, give you a window, and tell you what to shut off if water is going where it should not.
STEP 02
The tech finds the actual cause — not the symptom — and shows you. Camera footage, pressure readings, whatever it takes.
STEP 03
We educate you on the options and price each one in writing before touching a wrench. You pick. No surprises on the invoice.
STEP 04
We fix it, test it, and leave the place like we were never there — boot covers on, work area wiped down.
STEP 05
$10 off invoices over $95, $20 off over $150. Mention it when you schedule — one per visit, honored every time.

Friday-night main line failure. Four shops called; one showed up — Saturday 9am, water back before lunch, fairly priced for a weekend.

Good to know
Burst pipe? Turn the main water valve clockwise — usually near the street meter or where the line enters the house. Water heater leaking? Shut the cold-water inlet on top of the tank. We'll walk you through it on the call either way.
An $89 diagnostic visit covers the full inspection and written options; it's credited toward the repair if you go ahead. Coupons: $10 off invoices over $95, $20 off over $150 — mention them when you schedule.
