Pat responded very quickly to my request, and helped walk me through every step of the issue. Will definitely use again. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything thoroughly. Great experience!

Water Heater went out, called Jim at 10:30 AM.  He was at my place, installed, and done by 3:30 PM.   Your mileage could vary, but this was mine.  A+ service, good conversation and answered all my questions.  

Honestly blown away by service and couldn't be happier.

Pete showed up ready to get the job done. He was professional and knew how to get the job done right and didn't cut any corners. By the book and brought calm to a crazy situation. Yes emergency work does cost an arm and a leg but what choice do you have. If you are going to call anyone this is the one to keep on hand for any future situations.

They were respectful and did a great job fory Granny. I'll call you guys anytime.

Great service at a great price! We had an issue with our garbage disposal and a back up in the plumbing. Scotty fixed the issue quickly and we haven't had any issues since!

Rocket Plumbing's technician Marlon literally saved my life and possibly lives of the people on the 2100 block of W Cortland.

*Well aware that this sounds like a stupid over-the-top yelp review, but read the GAS LEAK story below.

I call People's Gas to come out and check for a gas leak, the guy finds a leak with the stove connection but doesn't check the meter or pipes below the building. I call Rocket Plumbing the next morning and they send Marlon out the next afternoon. Promptly fixes the stove hose and fittings, explaining everything as he does - from pipe size and fitting to the sticky dope used to seal them. But he doesn't just leave. He stays around and uses his gas meter to check for additional leaks. He was willing to open the crawl space (people's gas wasn't) and we found that it was filled with gas.

After Marlon found the additional leak, I called People's Gas to come and check it out. 15 mins after the People's Gas tech got here, the gas for the entire building is shut off and they start drilling into the street to shut off the big valve and repipe everything into the building. All the piping was corroded - creating a major leak. These are the kind of circumstances where buildings and entire blocks actually blow up. Marlon's sticking around and doing more than the job he came for prevented that.

When you call Rocket Plumbing, ask if they can send Marlon out.

These guys were great at assessing and solving our problem (mainline clog). They were very thorough and hydrojetted the pipe all the way to the city sewer and showed me the video identifying the problem areas that may need repairs in the future. They spent a few hours working on the job and remained patient and thoughtful all the way through (which is impressive considering the nature of the task). Price ($875) was much better than some other estimates. Highly recommended!

Efficient workers and great people. To cut a long story short, i had to have Windy City Plumbing return to my house 3 times before they could complete the job all because of issues they had found along the way with our pipes. They were very informative and explained everything they did before they did it so that i was fully aware. Thank you!

We hired First Chicago Plumbing to install the necessary plumbing, laundry box, vents and drains for our electric washer and dryer. Eugene and team were highly efficient in terms of email communications and were able to answer any questions I had regarding permits, inspections, licenses, etc. The team visited 3-4 times to ensure everything was done to the highest standard, permits were passed and inspections completed. The work was performed high quality work, ensured I was kept updated throughout, and made sure to clean up after themselves on all occasions. I would highly recommend First Chicago Plumbing and I am very happy with the project that was completed today. Looking forward to working with you again in the future

Kevin has done 2 repairs for me over the past year and they were both great experiences. He's very professional, reasonable and helpful. The most recent repair got a little complicated due to my building's water pump system. He came in the next day after the repair was completed to help us figure out the water pump - something that my own building maintenance man was unhelpful with. Now, not only is my bathtub faucet working, our building's water pressure is amazing. Very happy.

Today, I finally found a great plumber I could trust. Jesus is so amazing in every way. He's kind, honest, super knowledgable, and a great technician. He was able to fix my bathroom plumbing problem in no time and at a reasonable price. What a relief to finally have someone I could turn to when I have plumbing issues. I highly recommend Jesus the next time you need work done. I can't thank him enough!

I've had kevin and his crew out to my house a few times now. Even though I'm in lake Zurich he's always arrived right on time and gets the job done. Not only does kevin give good service, but I get it good service from his workers weather he's around or not. It's just really nice having a plumber you can trust and you know you're not going to be taken advantage of. I will always use green tech.

Great work on replacing kitchen sink garbage disposal, fast, cost competitive, and great service.  Would highly recommend

I had a pipe leaking so I called Captain Rooter. I got ahold of someone who took my info and told me that someone would call me back in a few minutes and they'd be able to be there within the hour.

40 minutes later I had yet to receive a call, so I called back. They took my info again and told me again that I'd get a call back in a few minutes and that person would be able to come within the hour.

This time I wouldn't be fooled though, I reached out to a different plumber who called me back in minutes and was able to help. It's been a day and I still haven't heard from Captain Rooter.

Our master bath and kitchen bathroom had a an electrical blow out - we tried nearly everything and finally I called Sims & Sons. Anel and Dylan were highly professional, they even came in with pads around their shoes which was very thoughtful as I was cleaning our home. They resolved within the hour and provided new wiring to the back panel. I am thankful for them and their knowledge and safety procedures.

Hristo from ABV plumbing showed up on time as promised. He had a mask and a pair of bootie to cover his shoes. We weren't able to use the kitchen sink for exactly 1 week which was so inconvenient. He worked so hard to open the drain that the previous company couldn't resolve. He used a 50 ft cable to open the drain. He was so patient and kept cool the whole time. I'm so happy that we now have a working kitchen sink again. I woupd strongly recommend using them again. Thank you so much. Great job Hristo!!!

My bathtub water wasn't going down as quickly as I'd hoped so after doing about 2 minutes of research, I decided to use a plastic drain snake I got off Amazon. I stuck about a ft in and when I tried pulling it out, it broke off inside. Turns out, you're not supposed to use those in tubs... ay yi yi.

I called CJ Plumbing and Dmitry sent someone out the next day. I thought they'd have to open up the wall because the thing was so deep but they managed to get it out in no time. These guys are my go-to plumbers because they're so quick and the work is good. Thank you again!

Mike the Plumber was punctual, resourceful & fast! A real Pro! If I ever need another plumber - Mike the Plumber will get the call!

Juan and his colleague went above and beyond on a service call! I needed a toilet installed in my elderly parents bathroom. Juan assisted me through the purchasing process, advised me on how to measure for proper fitting, evaluated pictures I sent, and answered many questions. He was reasonably priced and offered to come out the next day.

Because we weren't sure if an elongated toilet would work in this small space, I purchased two. Juan installed the base of the elongated so my parents could actually see how it fit. We went with the round toilet and Juan also took the time to install safety rails on it and advised my parents not to use as a support bar to get in the shower.

Lastly, any business owner who actually takes the time to reply to his customer's reviews, shows how he cares about them. We'll have Juan back for another project for sure! As others mentioned, they came in mask ready and were incredibly polite, efficient, and cleaned up. Thank you!

This man deserves any amount of business he wants in this world, or the next, if they have pipes up there.

In the late 1990s I needed a plumber to untangle the Three Stooges hornet's nest of plumbing in my old house, and was referred to Noel. Fast forward to the flash freeze of January 2013, which burst the water pipes behind my drywall: Noel responded in minutes, came over within an hour, provided a very fair estimate and finished the repair in a day.

Two additional factors aren't make-or-break, but are telling of the kind of work and business ethic Noel exemplifies, which I thought vanished a generation ago: First, he approached the problem with great care, pinpointing the source of the problem and minimizing how much drywall he would have to remove... saving me hundreds of dollars on the NEXT contractor I'll need to call. Second, when I thought the job was done and he would be out the door, he asked me if I happened to have a broom and dustpan... and proceeded to leave the work are cleaner than he found it.

One cannot ask for more of any kind of service provider.
