Instead of buying plumbing equipment from my country, this is the perfect place for it for best quality. They were amazingly helpful and gave me a few tips of each. Each part you buy from there really deserve its price instead of buying generic tools monthly!

Business is in downtown area, I didnt realize it was there. Staff was very helpful and they actually had what we were looking for. The product loaders also very nice and professional. This place has a good vibe, will come here again.

Needed a Stiebel Elton electronic water heater. Melvin checked his stock and unfortunately didn’t have it but called around, located it, brought it over to his own shop same day, and charged me the same price as online stores. Good service. Great people. Glad to have met Melvin and everyone else.

The staff went above and beyond helping me this afternoon at 4:50pm. They got me my parts that I needed and were helpful to all the customers. He got us all in. Staff was very helpful thank god for these people there are still good people out there.

Extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The folks here really are the best at what they do and just as a bonus, they carry EVERYTHING. Thanks to these folks at Universal I was able to find all the materials to fix my pipes after the winter storm.

Very knowledgeable..great help. Acknowledged you when you walking in..Ask for Chuck..

Called in advance to verify that they had the parts that I needed and drove from Clear Lake to pick them up. The person on the phone didnt bother to verify it was in stock and I made a trip and stood in line for 2 hours for nothing! CITY PLUMBING is MUCH better and will actually verify that they have items in stock before you drive out. I am NEVER using Universal Plumbing again

The Best Plumbing Supply Place in Houston!!! Knowledgeable, Friendly Staff ready to help and even worked overtime to help us thru this Houston freeze. I highly recommend them!!! Five Star Service!!!❤️

During our recent power outage and winter stlr. This place and their nice staff stayed HOURS passed closing to help us houstonians in need! All while running of a generator themselves in the freezing rain. Any plumbing supplies from now on, I am coming to them! Great service, great business great attitude! Thank you all to helping 1,000s gain back water. These people are very knowledgeable on Their parts.

Reading all these reviews of how good they are just seem soooo fake! They were not helpful and just treat you dumb. They didnt have any stock of anything, just a big waste of time coming here.

You need a tough outer shell to handle the politically incorrect banter that Congress between the counter crew and customers, but they are by far the best stocked and most helpful plumbing store within this City!

VERY professional. Return with no problem. Great customer service.

They have everything but what I dont think its right is the brother of the owner is making his business and getting others order making the ppl wait longer bc he writes down the orders for plumbers get those ready first.. when the plumbers should get in line like everyone else. Smfh.

It was very good. They help me with the parts I need for the job. Service was great

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff who were able to get what I needed to get the job done.

Great place. Been around a long time. Family owned. They know their stuff. Ask for Glen. He hooked me up with a TOTO toilet and everything I needed.

Excellent fast,affordable, and the owner took his time assist us.

Line long, but worth the wait

I can always find what I need and they also have great customer service.

Guys at the shop were very helpful as they researched my problem and found a solution for my troubled project!

Finally found the part that I needed excellent service!

Incompetent, unorganized and zero ability to use technology (a computer). If you need to order something you have ordered before... good luck. Everyone that answers the phones will transfer you until they put you on hold or hang up. Then, they will increase the price of the items if they are busy.

These guys have anything related to plumbing. I recently purchased a house built in the 1960s. The plumbing bathroom faucets and toilets are in need of TLC. Universal Plumbing Supply helped me match items that are almost 60 years old. They are knowledgeable and reasonably priced. For old, one of a kind, or hard-to-find items, this is the place to go. When I wanted to install a new master suite they even helped me with a quality toilet for just over $100.

Homeowner with HVAC background. Was looking for parts for my busted water heater, Melvin quoted be a good price on a new one instead so I went with that. Service at parts counter was good, made sure I left with everything I needed (including the CPVC cement I would have forgot for sure).Now, understand that this is an industry guys part shop. If you know generally what you want, they will help you get to the right product. If you are there to get Water Heaters 101 at the counter, you might want to call for general info and do some reading on products first. Still - I would recommend this shop for general tools, parts, and hardware for homeowners who can do their own work. If not - call your local plumbing contractor and save yourself.

Great personal experience.Great customer service always have of what Im looking for as plumbing parts.

My only place for our plumbing supplies. The service is #1

Great selection and a very helpful crew! Glad I found this place. I’ll keep coming here for my plumbing needs before the big box stores.

Universal, is a Houston landmark for Plumbers & your total plumbing needs.With decades of expertise & knowledge behind the counter. You cant go wrong. Glen, & Pablo, can answer any questions you may have about the mystic arts of plumbing and plumbing repair.It has the feel of a Texas Ice House & is probably my all time favorite Plumbing Supply.

Very knowledgeable spot, with counter service similar to an industrial supply house. Friendly, no nonsense, and lots of experience. Local and centrally located!

Great experience today. Universal has everything and the helpful and knowledgeable staff were able to give me some great project pointers, as well as a coffee while they filled my order. Thrilled to have found this place so close to home.

Awesome customer service!

Great customer service. Decades and decades of dependable experience behind the counter. Great for hard to find plumbing items. The last real city counter in Houston.

A working mans supply house. No fancy ambience. Just great counter help and needed parts at hand.

Skip the big box stores, the customer service here is fantastic. These guys know what they are doing and are able to help with advice on the best supplies to use to help with your project.

Super awesome, it was the best shopping experience Ive had in a long time the older gentleman up front ran the show and he was on the ball.he was super polite friendly and a know it all in the best way possible I highly recommend these guys for any Plumbing need small or big the Lowes and Home Depot couldnt help me at all these guys hit the nail on the head I wish I could get this kind of service at my local grocery store

This is a small hole in the wall & very well hidden place. They are very knowledgeable & have a big selection in stock of plumbing stuff. I found everything i was looking for at a very reasonable price.

Great service.

RUDE RUDE RUDE. Just got off the phone with their superior staff whom like to make you feel extremely stupid. I was told that certain plumbing terminology was actually house hold language, then put me on hold because this particular individual could not be bothered. SORRY YOU CANT STAND YOUR JOB BUT YOU SHOULD REALLY SAVE YOUR RUDE BEHAVIOR FOR YOUR LOVED ONES......

Had a piping problem that nobody at my office or a hardware store could figure out. Took it here and they fixed it in seconds, and immediately helped with other sections of the project. Id pay for just their advice, but they have every adapter and plumbing equipment anyone could possibly need. Will come back again anytime.

Great customer service Mitch at the counter Awesome attention to detail and product knowledge. Every person there demonstrated expert knowledge of all products this my go to supplier.

Staff knows their Business. They have always have the parts we needed. Regular customer.

1st time there, excellent and friendly service by Randy

Great service great quality and that needed them plumbing supplies are heaters water heaters that these guys out there the best

Great guys, great stock

Fantastic customer service- they helped me disassemble our clogged up modern kitchen faucet. It was not a brand they service or stock parts for. Nevertheless, Travis & company helped me resolve a problem without charging a dime. They came up with a solution long term that didnt involve a new $450 faucet. Great place!

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff helped me out with a tough issue. Great prices too!

Absolutely rediculous the guy didnt want to help me at all just looked at me like I was crazy... project consisted of plumbing 1 sink with a 1 1/2 drain... I also need 1/2 angle stops... went to hopeless depot and got it in 5 min... never will I go here... if this place was on fire I wouldnt even pee on it
