Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

These guys are great. I had another plumber come out to address a flooded basement because it was Easter and nobody else was open. They completely botched the job and didn't even address the root of the problem. Pat came in and immediately diagnosed the issue, and solved it within a couple hours. They were very polite, empathetic, and clear in explaining what happened and how to prevent it in the future. I will definitely use them again.

These guys were great. They were the most honest and reasonably priced of the 5 plumbers that I contacted. More importunately they were clean and quick. I had them replace 2 water heaters and they also fixed some issues from the previous plumber. I would recommend them and I would use them again.

I called Rescue Plumbing after noticing a damp spot in our ceiling. Rich and Eric showed up the same day, in a matter of hours, to investigate.

They were quick, efficient and thorough in diagnosing the problem. They had to cut a hole into our ceiling to find the source of the the leak and left their work area spotless.

The issue ultimately wasn't plumbing-related, but due to a poorly-caulked tub, so they weren't able to solve the issue themselves. However, I'd be sure to call them back for a plumbing job in the future.

Our toilet flooded in the middle of the night on a Sunday. I didn't want to risk serious water damage, so I did a quick search & found fast response from Discount Plumbing. I requested a quote on yelp and they responded within minutes & they said a technician can come out & gives me a FREE quote with no obligation. They arrived in minutes and my toilet soon was able to flushing like it was brand new! I appreciate them walking in with booties and walking me through the whole process & answering my questions. Definitely took the customer service to another level with that. Plus, the 10% coupon helped..

Thank you

Scotty is still the best plumber in town!! He replaced the entire guts of both toilets in my condo. This included replacing both wax seals, bowl gaskets, tank bolts, and fill valve kits (contractor series since high rise condos require at least 80 PSI). He had to make two trips to a plumbing store and Home Depot since older toilets need a different size bowl gasket. Thankfully, he was able to find it in stock. In addition, he replaced both chrome p-trap kits under both bathroom sinks. Another great job by Scotty!

This is a company you wish you could give five stars to.  Professional, polite and responsive.  Unfortunately, they sent out two young men, who while extremely polite and earnest, knew less about plumbing than your typical homeowner.  We had a half dozen minor issues that had developed around the house.  
They told me I needed to replace our expensive bathroom waterfall faucet.  After they left I did the work myself and at no cost replaced a defective o-ring and it has worked perfectly ever since.
They said they repaired our shower tower but when I tested it after they left it was exactly the same as before.
They said they would clean out the water line to the dishwasher but left before doing so.
They cleaned the water the line to the washing machine as promised.
They had no opinions or solutions as to why our water line repeatedly clogged our filters with sediment.
I liked everyone I dealt with there and had they sent a journeyman plumber all would have been great.

They came out the same day, much faster than they anticipated to take a look at our issue. After assessing and not being able to reproduce it, they recommended we keep an eye on it and not move forward with any additional services unless it happens again. There was no charge for the consultation, and they didn't want to do anything that would cost us a service fee until they were confident it would fix the issue. They seem trustworthy and we will definitely contact them again if we have any future issues!

Do yourself a favor and don't bother calling anyone else...These guys are awesome! Friendly, reasonably priced, and very efficient.... All the qualities you would want in a plumber. Jose is extremely helpful as well and very quick to respond To any questions or concerns. Stay away from Vanguard plumbing and others here on yelp a lot of these people write their own reviews it seems like because when I talk to them, they do not seem very reasonable or professional. I would not hesitate to call Windy City plumbing again if I ever need plumbing work. Highly recommended!

I was very impressed with the fast response time and honest opinion of First Chicago Plumbing.  I am currently selling a property and the buyer asked to have the rusted gas pipe to the grill outside replaced per the inspection.  I contacted First Chicago Plumbing for an estimate and they got back to me within an hour to schedule an appointment that afternoon! Unlike some other companies I contacted, they did not charge to come out and look at the issue to provide an estimate which I appreciated. Upon looking at the pipe, our plumber, Eugene, stated that the rust was purely cosmetic and was not impacting the functionality (no gas leaks or weak spots); it was just normal for a pipe being outside.  He recommended leaving it alone because the new pipe would rust in a year again anyway and there was nothing wrong with it. I asked for a write up of his recommendation that I could provide to the buyer and he promptly got it to me the same day.

While I did not have any work done, I will definitely contact them in the future for any plumbing needs as I appreciated their honesty and was more than happy with the estimate they provided if, in fact, the pipe were to be replaced.

Used Sound Plumbing today to change a kitchen faucet and troubleshoot a toilet not working right. This company is very easy to make an appointment with and arrived on time. Both jobs completed and all is working fine. I felt the price was fair. Very happy and I would recommend them.

Jesus helped to fix our kitchen sink clog. Very professional. Showed up on time and took care of the problem with no issues. Jesus also changed a leaking pipe and tightened a loose faucet for free. That shows how much he cares about the work he is doing and his customers. I strongly recommend J Sewer and Drain Plumbing for any plumbing needs.

I've used various plumbers over the years but decided to call these guys based on their Yelp reviews.  I had water dripping through my basement ceiling from a pipe hidden  in the kitchen walls upstairs.  I called Greentech and talked to Kevin.  He sent out a great young plumber, Tim.  He arrived exactly on time, made some measurements, and determined where in the wall the leaking pipe was probably located.  He made a small 6x6 cut in the wallboard - and there was the dripping pipe.  He made the repair.  I had been envisioning a major disaster; instead the job was done in 45 minutes, at a very reasonable price.  From now on all my plumbing business goes to Greentech.  The 5-star reviews are well deserved.

I requested a quote on Yelp to find a plumber for a line backing up with raw sewage into a walkway. Mike and another guy came and rodded out the main line and found a problem with a small sidewalk drain also.  They responded and came within a couple of hours.  Were knowledgable, fixed the problem right away, were very fair and also so pleasant.  Their work was guaranteed. I wont use another plumber after this.

Adam was beyond amazing and clear of exactly what needed to take place.  The price and time were perfect.

Not a great experience. I was quoted a price via text message and sent pics of the jobs I wanted to do and I agreed to have the work done with the price I was quoted. Worker arrived 20 mins late, not a big deal, but was polite and professional. I guess the light fixture was suppose to be a two man job and took him a little longer than normal, which again was no big deal for me. The outdoor camera was installed without any issue and done in a speedy time frame, but when I called to make a payment I was quoted $150 extra for what Derek said was a 'service call fee'.

I can understand an additional $30-40 for the extra time it took to install the light fixture but $150 when I told him what I needed done is unacceptable, especially when I was NEVER told about an additional $150 'service call fee'. So be careful and make sure to ask for a total 'out the door' price before having any work done.

The work looks like it was done right and looks pretty good so no complaint there.

Update: Upon hearing I was displeased with the$150 service call fee, Derek called me and said he would refund me the amount since it was never mentioned to me prior to getting the work done. Still not happy about it, but at least they care about customer satisfaction which is a good sign.

Hristo was great! He responded so quickly. He gave a competitive price. He even had to go to his store and come back for a specific part to fix our weird sink problem. He also wore a mask and booties the whole time. Will definitely use ABV plumbing in the future!

After purchasing a home last year, we experienced a number of plumbing issues due to the previous owner being neglectful and/or just doing poor quality plumbing work. So, when we needed to install a new sink, I called CJ Plumbing & Heating and not only did they diagnose a number of plumbing issues that weren't up to code, they spotted some red flags that would eventually fail and leave us with serious flooding issues.

Through several visits, the team at CJ, especially Lenny, helped us install the sink, reroute the dishwasher drain to the main line rather than the garbage disposal, install two new shutoff valves (we live in an old house and we only had one valve that didn't shut off all the way), fix the b-box so we could actually shut water off to the house from the street (we previously weren't able to), reroute the drains from our upstairs bathroom that were installed incorrectly (which caused a terrible smell to build up in the bathroom over time), and cleared a blockage between the house and main sewer line that was causing water to pour back into the basement when it rained hard.

Obviously, this laundry list of repairs added up to quite a lot of money, but the team at CJ Plumbing helped us out by working with our home warranty company and by providing us with a few discounts on labor/equipment that made the cost much more manageable.

Next time you need a plumber, please don't try to tackle the issue yourself or have a family friend try to do the repair. Call a licensed professional at CJ Plumbing so you know that the job is done right the first time!

I highly recommend Mike! He came out yesterday to assess and fix a leaky pipe and he was honest and kind and straightforward. He did the work the same day and charged a fair price and worked efficiently. We will definitely be a customer of his in the future!

Juan and his colleague were fantastic! I needed a last minute repair since my water heater broke and needed it to be replaced. He answered within 20 min of my message requesting a quote. His service was amazing. He explained what he needed to do and showed me where the issues were. After the repair, he once again explained what he fixed and what different pieces meant. His pricing was also great. I would HIGHLY recommend his services for your needs and will absolutely contact him again for any future repairs that are needed.

The best plumber you'll ever hire.  On time, trustworthy, etc.  Read the other reviews - they're all spot on.
