Jim responded quickly and fixed my problem right away.  My kitchen water was down to less than a pencil thick trickle.  For $85, he was in and out in  minutes and I've got a beautiful geyser-like flow.  I couldn't be happier.
Bonus:  jim is a real nice guy with a sense of humor and a willingness to do a little more.  He volunteered to check my bathroom flow and even tried to fix a leak until he discovered the extension arm had a little crack.  But he told me where to go and whom to ask for when I got there to get that little problem resolved.
This is the way it should be when you call for help!

Jay is very personable. The service was quick and I got to learn what this service is all about.

We bought this 105 year old apartment and were told we needed new pipes by our inspector and then a plumber.  We had almost the same exact scenario someone else mentioned, third floor, trickle of hot water in bathroom sink, only a problem in our unit.  A neighbor recommended Jay from Pressure Pro, and we could not be more grateful!!!  My husband played phone tag with him for several days, but he always called back.  They just kept missing each other, but then he came right out and within an hour flushed our pipes and had the hot water running perfectly without having to coordinate a water shut off in the building!  We didn't even think this was possible as the previous plumber had turned it off and made it only slightly more bearable than a trickle for a couple weeks.  We'll see how long this lasts, but we couldn't ask for more!   Jay was also so nice and helpful in explaining what he did and we feel like we really understand our plumbing better.  Highly highly recommend!!!

Jim returned my call right away and came to fix my shower water pressure in a prompt and professional manner. My water pressure has never been stronger! Very pleased with his services.

We had a 3rd floor condo bathroom, where the hot water pressure was barely a trickle.  Showering, was incredibly refreshing, but with the really cold weather, it became impossible.

The issue was not a building-wide issue (the hot water risers had been replaced a few years ago), so this was something within our unit.  We called plumber #1 who said they'd have to rip out the tile, break into the wall, replace all of the pipes at a cost of about $2,500-$3,500. Yikes! $150.00 for the visit.

The building's management company gave us the name of plumber #2 who said nonsense!  'Dis is a Chicago Faucet... we do 'dis kid of 'ting all da time... no problem!  They came out, pulled the faucet, pulled the handles and valves... and in the long run ($350.00 later) they couldn't fix it.

Each of these visits from plumbers #1 and #2 we had to have the water turned off in the tier... (no small feat).

The building maintenance guy told us to give Pressure Pros a call.  Jay came out quickly... we didn't have to have the water turned off.  He was on time, he was a nice guy... he lugged this unusual home-grown device, on two wheels, up three flights of stairs... plugged it into the shower nozzle, spent 20 minutes pushing pressure back and forth, back and forth... while we sat and talked.

When he pulled the device back off the nozzle, miraculously... without turning off the water to the tier... without damaging the bathroom tile, and without needing to use our Home-Equity-Line-of-Credit... we had more hot water pressure than we'd ever had.  And all for less than $100.00.  He didn't accept credit cards... but he said he'd mail me a bill.

I can't say enough nice things about Jay and Pressure Pros.  They saved us thousands, they were professional, nice, neat and showed up on time.  What more can you ask!?

My hot water pressure was down to a trickle in my shower and not much better in the kitchen. Our condo management group recommended Pressure Pro and now I know why.
I called and left a message and the same day Jay called back saying he could stop by later that day in the afternoon if it was convenient for me.
He did an amazing job on both faucets. The pressure has never been this good in the 25 years I've been here.
Best money I've spent all year!

Jay just called me back (after I left 3 messages - however to his credit he called me left me 1 message and another time didn't leave a message). However this was during a 2 week span. When he called back right now he was in an accusatory tone saying we had a conversation that I told him last week to call me this week. Also that it was about my kitchen sink which only produced cold water. That is not true. The messages I left were about my bathroom and kitchen sink being clogged. When I tried to explain this to him he wasn't having it. When I told him that I didn't hear back after almost 2 weeks I had another call out to someone else, he got mad and said we'll go with them bc I know we talked last week. No we didn't and the fact this guy takes a few days to return a call is a joke.

Jim came right out and did an amazing job with our old pipes! He was polite, thorough, and got the job done! We will gladly refer him.

The water in my building gets turned off quite often. When it gets turned back on, there is extremely low pressure in my faucets.  Jay has fixed the pressure on these faucets and wash machine as well. He got them working better than I thought they could be! He's on time, very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I highly recommend him!

Jay with Pressure Pros was the best! I called yesterday and left a message. He called me yesterday night and scheduled me first thing this morning to fix the hot water pressure in my shower/tub. Jay was right on time, extremely friendly, and good with our dog. I highly recommend if you need good work done by someone who is nice and trustworthy. :)

Wow. This was a first. Jay showed up on time to his credit. From there it just went downhill. I asked Jay to remove his shoes as we would be going upstairs and there is a carpet runner on the steps and carpeted bedroom he would have to walk through. He said no he could not remove his shoes because he'd be bringing equipment in. Ok, that's a first. Typically contractors will have no problem with this or will bring the blue shoe covers. I mention well, ok, as long as your shoes are clean. He then says this isn't going to work, turns around and walks out the door. I stood there a second, picked my jaw up off the floor then opened the door and said you realize how unprofessional you are acting and he said yep, got in his car and left. Maybe he's a pro at improving water pressure (I wouldn't know), but he's far from having a professional demeanor. I'm willing to bet he doesn't behave like this if it was a man greeting him at the door.

I have an old two flat in Edgewater and the hot water faucet in the bathroom was extremely slow.  Jay showed up on time, super friendly and professional, and was the most well groomed plumber I have ever seen .  Oh BTW, the hot water is now flowing better than ever and he was very reasonable to boot.  

I would highly recommend Pressure Pro.  We need to support honest, hard working people like Jay.

Pressure Pro got the job done. Our building building and our unit was notorious for weak water pressure, especially in the bathrooms. Jim and his guys got the pressure back up to a level I didn't think possible. Pressure Pro Rocks!

Got a referral from my neighbor who used Jay at a hotel she managed.  Been plagued with low water in both bathtubs for years.  Finally got fed up and called Jay. He called and come out that day.  After 45 minutes he cleared both lines for $80. I'm kicking myself for waiting so long.

Jay came out and cleared the supply line from my hot water pipe to the kitchen faucet.  I now have great pressure.  It took him about 10 minutes. Very professional.

I have used Pressure Pro since 2006 and he has does a great job every time. Unfortunately our older building has pipes that sediment builds up and anytime I lose the pressure I call Pressure Pro. They are always good at working with me on a time to perform the job and they are always on time. If they had more stars I would give them more!

Pressure Pro was recommended to me by my property management company. The hot water pressure was low in my shower. He told me he would be here at 9:00 am and showed up on time. He was very friendly and out of here within 30 min. Very reasonable rates. My shower works great and I can't believe I waited so long to have it repaired.

Our condo is 100+ years old.  Last 6 months, barely any cold water in our shower.  Got name from our maintenance man.  Called and left VM in the AM and in the evening.  Jim called me back the next morning and came out in a few hours.  Fixed in 30mins. $160.  Hot/Cold flow is amazing. Should have called 6 months ago.  FYI...they rarely answer the phone but will call you back.  Great service.  Highly recommend to get the job done fast.

Amazing service! We've had annoyingly slow hot water in our shower for the last three years. Then we learned about Pressure Pro and gave them a call. In 20 minutes our hot water was transformed from a trickle to abundance. The difference is simply amazing. Our only regret is that we didn't find out about PP years ago. Highest possible recommendation! Thank you, Pressure Pro!

Best service ever, saved me thousands of dollars.  I had terrible hot water pressure on 2nd floor, and I was sure I was looking at a costly re-piping job.  Jay came out, same day, and completely fixed the problem in less than an hour.  Anyone who is going to replace pipes needs to try this first - was ridiculously cheap also (less than $100).

We were contemplating busting through our wall to get to the plumbing to fix our painfully slow hot water in our shower. For a very reasonable price, Jay was professional and very responsive and he fixed the problem. Definitely call him to fix your pressure problem.

We live on the 4th floor of a 40 year old condo building.  The building often has water pressure problems (particularly after a condo-wide water shut-off for servicing).  Some years ago, Jay and his father from Pressure Pro came out and fixed the water pressure problem we were having.  We recently started having another water pressure problem and the hot water was down to a trickle.  Our Condo Management tried to send out another service company, but they would not come out on a weekend.  We remembered Pressure Pro and insisted that our Management Company use them.  Jay came out and had strong water pressure back in no time.  While he was here, he took the time to explain how to help prevent future pressure problems, and also made some recommendations for fixing some other unrelated issues.  Jay and Pressure Pro are one of those rare Chicago area services that are honest, friendly and reliable.  We cannot say enough good things about Pressure Pro.

Pressure Pro is effective and efficient.  Jay came into my unit  around 5 p.m. and was done by 6 p.m. with my bathroom and kitchen.  After four years of ineffective plumbers my condo finally  had  hot water pressure running beautifully.

I can't say enough good things about Jay! He was easy to schedule with, friendly, professional, and solved our plumbing problem within half an hour. Unlike some other plumbers who charge at least 1 hour of time even if they end up being at the house for 20 minutes, Jay prorated his hourly rate for us. I really appreciated this! He also was able to come on short notice and was extremely polite and friendly while he was here. I definitely recommend Pressure Pro!

The water pressure in my mother's bath tub faucet was down to a trickle, I was very concerned that the 55 year old pipes needed to be replaced.  Jose the plumber recommended the Pressure Pro to me.  Jay showed up on time and within 30 minutes had the water gushing out like new construction plumbing!  Jay told me to make sure to call him back in case there was a problem as his work is fully guaranteed.  For incredible work at a very reasonable price, I uneqivocally recommend Pressure Pro!
