Service Built for Jonestown Homes
Jonestown is really two towns in one, and we work in both every week. Down near the water and the original townsite off Park Road and Lakeside Drive, you have lake cottages and ranch homes from the 1960s and 70s with original panels, aging water lines, and additions stacked on over the decades. Up the hill in The Hollows and Northlake Hills, you have newer custom builds with tankless water heaters, heat pumps, smart panels, and irrigation systems that all still have to survive the same rock, the same hard water, and the same summer heat.
A technician who does not know the difference will misquote you, misdiagnose you, or bring the wrong parts. Ours will not, because Jonestown homes are what they see all day.
What Makes Jonestown Different
Jonestown sits on solid limestone and caliche, stair-stepped from the shoreline of Lake Travis up steep hillside streets. That terrain shapes every trade we work in:
Grinder pumps. Much of Jonestown moves wastewater uphill on a low pressure sewer system, and the grinder pump at your home is your responsibility, not the city's. When it alarms on a Friday night, you need someone local who stocks pumps and can get there fast. We repair and replace residential grinder pumps in Jonestown.
Hard Lake Travis water. Water on the North Shore is some of the hardest in Central Texas. It scales tankless heat exchangers, shortens the life of water heaters, and spots every glass shower door in The Hollows.
Elevation and pressure. Hillside streets mean big pressure swings from the top of a street to the bottom. Homes near the bottom often need pressure reducing valves. Homes at the top sometimes need booster pumps just to run two showers at once.
Rock, heat, and weather. Yard lines break in rocky soil, slab leaks hide under homes built on stone, and the freeze events of 2021 and 2023 burst pipes and knocked out power across the North Shore. Summers then swing the other way with months of triple-digit cooling load.
We built our Jonestown service lineup around those exact realities.

Jonestown Homeowner FAQs
Do you repair grinder pumps in Jonestown?
Yes. Grinder pumps on Jonestown's low pressure sewer system are homeowner-owned, and we repair and replace them, including emergency calls when the alarm sounds.
How fast can you get to The Hollows or Northlake Hills?
Fast. Our shop is in Lago Vista, minutes up FM 1431. We offer same-day service and true 24/7 emergency response, and Jonestown is one of the closest communities we serve.
My water pressure is way too high. Is that normal here?
It is common. Jonestown's steep streets create big pressure differences between homes. Sustained high pressure wears out water heaters, fixtures, and pipes. A pressure reducing valve usually solves it, and we can test your pressure on the spot.
Do I need a water softener in Jonestown?
If you are on lake-sourced water, almost certainly yes if you want your tankless unit, appliances, and fixtures to last. Hard water here scales equipment faster than most manufacturers' warranties assume.
My home was built in the 1970s. Should I be worried about the electrical panel?
It is worth an inspection. Many original Jonestown cottages still run panels that are undersized for modern loads or belong to brands with known failure histories, and some homes of that era have aluminum branch wiring. We will give you an honest assessment, not a scare quote.
Do you install standby generators?
Yes. After the outages of 2021 and 2023, whole-home generators have become one of our most requested electrical projects on the North Shore, and we handle sizing, installation, and gas and electrical connections.

Real Feedback From Real Customers

Preventative maintenance is the backbone of Lantz Home Services. Once again being part of their PM program I avoided a complete shutdown of our grinder pump. Lantz Master Plumber Justin Barnett arrived and I thought all was well until he requested that I take a “peek” into what I would describe as a total catastrophe about to happen at any moment. The grinder system was a horror of failing pump and sewage accumulation and related nasties. Justin told me my options from doing nothing to fixing it with 3 options, which were clearly defined with costs and various replacement components and when it would be finished. We chose wisely. Justin returned with all of the components and in 4 hours it was stripped completely and reassembled with new components. Justin is organized, articulate, educated and polite. Bravo Lantz Home Services PS. I worked in industrial Preventative Maintenance for 25 years. These guys are the real deal.- Randy L.

I had a great experience with Lantz Home Services. We ran into an electrical issue at our lake house late in the day, and I honestly didn’t think we’d be able to get an electrician out that evening. When I called, they reassured me that someone would be available—and they delivered. Nick, their electrician, arrived around 7 PM and had everything resolved by 9 PM. He was prompt, thorough, and very courteous throughout the entire process. He quickly diagnosed the problem and fixed it efficiently, all at a very fair price. I truly appreciate their responsiveness and professionalism. I highly recommend Lantz Home Services and will definitely be using them again in the future.- Larry W.

Zachary was beyond helpful! He jumped straight to the problem, made sure everything was properly working, walked me through the fix and was straightforward from the get go about what the potential issues could be and what the estimated repairs were as well! He kept me informed and even shared pictures when I couldn't be there right away. After everything was done he put everything back the way it was. This was a grinder pump drainage pipe repair. The site looked as if he was never there! Five stars.- Simon V.

I had an excellent experience with this HVAC company and especially with Moses, who came out for a second opinion. After a previous technician tried to convince me that I needed a full system replacement (on a 4-year-old unit), Moses took a completely different and highly professional approach. He performed thorough diagnostics before suggesting anything and took the time to properly assess the system instead of jumping to conclusions. He confirmed that there was no leak, no major component failure, and that the system was actually in good working condition. The issue was likely electrical, not something requiring expensive replacements. This immediately put my mind at ease. What really stood out is their honesty and integrity. Instead of pushing unnecessary work, they were transparent about the fact that no major repairs were needed. They also documented their findings and shared everything clearly, which builds a lot of trust. Huge shoutout to Moses for being knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely looking out for the customer’s best interest. It’s rare to find this level of honesty in the industry. Highly recommend if you want accurate diagnostics and fair, trustworthy service.- Annamaria

Excellent service, fast, and professional team. Willie Krueger was the tech who came through, he solved plumbing issues that had bugged me for almost 10 years in about 20 minutes. Will absolutely use them in the future for anything I can, and would highly recommend to anyone I need of their services.- Jonathan J.

Zac was very cordial and made sure I was aware of what he diagnosed and what it was going to cost. We had one of our Heat Pumps replaced last week, the Techs were John and Landyn. The response was amazing as was the changeout. I can not speak highly enough about the professionalism we received!- Gerald P.

The folks at Lantz Home Services installed this Tankless Water Heater for me and were absolutely amazing! They put up new wall paneling to cover some wall defects I had from the old tank water heater. So happy with my new water heater!!- Nichole W.

Mark and Willie came out to the Christian Brothers Automotive pflugerville location and were able to handle the commercial plumbing issue that 3 other plumbing companies were not able to figure out. We will only be using them form now on the difference was night and day between them and the others. On a side note Willie’s service truck was the cleanest most well organized service truck we all had ever seen!!! They take pride in their service and we appreciate that in our service industry as well!- Ian D.
