What Makes Shafer Services a Trusted Name in San Antonio Since 1884

When it comes to taking care of your home, trust matters. Whether your air conditioner stops cooling in the middle of a Texas summer or a plumbing problem interrupts your day, you want a company that puts your needs first. That’s what Shafer Services has worked to provide San Antonio homeowners for generations.

With a history dating back to 1884, Shafer Services Plus has built its reputation around quality workmanship, honest recommendations, and treating customers like family. While the technology behind HVAC and plumbing systems has changed over the years, our commitment to doing the right thing remains the same.

So, what makes Shafer a name homeowners continue to trust?

A Legacy of Serving San Antonio Families

CEO's and co-founders of Shafer

San Antonio has changed quite a bit since 1884, and so have the heating, cooling, and plumbing systems that keep homes comfortable.

But one thing hasn’t changed: homeowners deserve dependable service from people who genuinely care about their well-being.

Shafer Services has a long-standing connection to the San Antonio community. Generations of homeowners have turned to the Shafer name for help maintaining comfortable, functional homes.

Today, we continue that legacy by combining modern HVAC and plumbing expertise with the values that have always mattered most: integrity, respect, and taking care of people like family.

Expert Technicians Who Put Quality First

When something goes wrong with your AC or plumbing, you shouldn’t have to worry about whether the person arriving at your door knows how to fix it.

Our experienced technicians are trained to diagnose problems, explain their findings, and recommend solutions based on your home’s needs.

Whether you need routine maintenance, a plumbing repair, or AC repair from Shafer, our goal is to deliver professional workmanship without shortcuts or guesswork.

We also stand behind our work with our Fixed Right the First Time or It’s Free Guarantee, giving homeowners added confidence in the service they receive.

From small repairs to more complex system problems, our technicians understand that doing the job right means taking the time to do it properly.

We Believe in Repair First, Replacement Second

One of the biggest concerns homeowners have when calling an HVAC or plumbing company is whether they’ll be pressured into purchasing something they don’t need.

At Shafer Services Plus, we believe in a repair-first approach.

If your existing equipment can be repaired safely and reliably, we’ll explain that option. If replacement makes more sense because of age, condition, efficiency, or repair costs, we’ll help you understand why.

Our job is to provide honest recommendations so you can make an informed decision for your home and budget.

That commitment to doing the right thing, even when no one is watching, is one of the values that guides our team every day.

For us, great service goes beyond repairing equipment.

It means listening to homeowners, respecting their concerns, and recognizing that an HVAC or plumbing problem can disrupt an entire family’s routine.

Building Long-Term Relationships Through Preventative Maintenance

Trust isn’t built during a single service visit. It’s earned through consistent care over time.

That’s one reason we encourage homeowners to stay ahead of unexpected HVAC and plumbing problems with routine maintenance.

Our SAFER with Shafer Membership makes preventative maintenance more convenient with benefits that include two HVAC system checks per year, one whole-home plumbing inspection, priority scheduling, and service reminders.

These regular visits give our technicians opportunities to identify potential concerns, answer questions, and help homeowners better understand their systems.

It’s another way we work to build lasting relationships rather than simply showing up when something breaks.

Experience the Shafer Difference

A trusted name isn’t built overnight. It’s earned through years of showing up, doing the right thing, and taking care of the people who depend on you.
