Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

We had a clogged sewer line backing up from the floor drain where the washer drains into but also backing up from toilets.  We called them (Chicago Hts number but surely the same business) and like the Yellow Pages ad says, they were out within the hour.  The estimate was $250-275.  They rodded out the main line using the cleanout in the front yard and quickly the toilets were flushing smoothly.  

But not so the floor drain.  I had had some inklings that there was a clog very close by so it didn't totally surprise me that we actually had two clogs.  And, boy did they have to work to clear this one, finally having to remove the standpipe thing coming from the washer and even having to bring in the big machine they used outside.  (They were having to snake through a trap in the piping under the concrete slab floor to get to the clog.)  I asked if releasing that clog would potentially move on to reclog the mainline and true to their word, they went back outside and rodded the mainline all over again.  They explained what they were doing and why they would do it the way they did at every stage.

The floor drain clog took a lot more work than the mainline clog and they could have asked for double the quote.  In the end the tab came to $400 which is not cheap but I think for 2 men and the amount of time spent not only doing it but doing it right (so far as I could tell), it was reasonable.  Hopefully it all stays free running for a long time.  I would use them again when the time comes.

My gas water heater pilot light wouldn't stay on. I called and they came by within a couple of hours of my call and were able to get it re-lit. They showed me what they did, explained the problem and what a replacement unit would cost. The plumber said that I would likely need to get it replaced due to the age and configuration if it went out again. Well, within a couple of hours the heater went off again and I could not get it to restart with their instructions, so I called back and was able to get them out same day to replace the heater. The work was done quickly and professionally, and at the quoted price.

I was recommended by a relative. I had a backed up sink and he fixed it! He had all the right tools to get the job done. You get the feeling that he has been doing this for many years. I will be using him for all of my plumbing needs! He also charges a fair price for the work that is done.

Excellent honest very fair priced old school plumber. He worked hard for four hours straight and the bill was 40 % less than the big company quotes plus when the job ran longer than expected because of the common snafus he stayed until 9pm to get it finished and cleaned up everything. Also has an easy going friendly personality. I couldn't be more pleased and am shocked he doesn't have many more reviews.

Had received a quote from another plumber for my cabin in Three Oaks.  Thought it was somehwat high so decided to get a second quote before proceeding...so glad I did!  Not only was Goodman lower but my experience from initial call to on-site completion was top-notch on all.  Nick (owner) took time to explain the issues and even though they ran into an unexpected on-site issue (I actually had a 120v water heater versus a 220v), he was able to pivot immediately and get a new unit in and install it the very next morning in time for guests arriving following day.   Could not recommend this company enough - just an honest, efficient, professional small business that always make sure they have a happy and satisifed customer whatever it takes.  Thanks to Goodman team and will be recommending you to all the other owners at Lakeside Cabins!

I've turned to bob for help with a plumbing issue twice. He responds quickly and delivers great service

We needed help with removing our toilet and replacing the wax ring, but we didn't have the tool to cut a rusty screw. They were quick to respond to my initial call and flexible with coming later the following day when my husband was home from work. They arrived on time and were done very quickly, at an affordable price. Both men were polite, friendly, and social. We will definitely be saving their number for future needs!

Great!  Gus was very responsive and came the next morning.  Completed the work and did a fine job!!!
I've saved the number and certainly will call again!!!  
Thank you!!

Very Professional and Friendly. Competitive prices. I called Cesar that day and he came out right away.

Purchased a kitchen faucet from Home Depot. on Tuesday. Paid for installation with a soft promise for installation by Friday. After not hearing from HD's contractor, cheked Yelp for recommendations. Yelp kept me away from another Glenview plumber, but insufficient coverage on other plumbers in Glenview. Took a risk on Glenbrook Plumbing without any recommendation. Agreed to 1:00 p.m. service call on Friday. Asked for estimate from receptionist and received a soft estimate. Co, rep arrived at my home EXACTLY at 1:00 p.m. Completed job in less time than estimate. I saved $56 compared to what HD quoted. Rep dId an excellent job. I am extremely satisfied and would use again based on this experience.

I'll I can say is that Jason is top notch. My sump pump decided to break down today just a few days after I received surgery. I googled plumbers in my area and the first business that popped up was BEE QUICK LLC. I spoke with Jason he said he would be there in hour. Jason was actually there in 30 min. Not only is the guy awesome but he's a true professional when it comes to his work. He changed out the pump and did not leave until he made sure it was all in excellent working order. Don't let any bad reviews steer you in a different direction keep in mind that there is always two sides to every story. All I know is that BEE QUICK has a new loyal customer.

Our A/C went out recently and we called King cause we had them do some things in the past.  John was very helpful in talking through the issues and we decided to replace the system because of King's 0% financing.

They replaced everything, it looks awesome and John and the rest of the people at King remained super responsive to our questions and concerns.  They definitely care about customer satisfaction.  It was one of the best/easiest experiences I've had with service to my house.

Do Not Hire this person!!!
We recently hired him for a small shower renovation. We paid him $4k and he never finished the job. We had 3 separate plumbers check his work and All of them said it was incorrect. We ended up paying someone else to finish the job correctly. He ghosted us and never responded to us after he took our money. HORRIBLE! Please Do Not Hire Him!!!

Public Plumbers was referred to us by a trusted professional in the plumbing business when we discovered a gas leak in our house. This was an emergency situation and they came out within an hour of calling. They were very professional and thorough! It took a long time because they were being very careful and making sure they got every leak. I was expecting a gigantic bill but it was reasonable, given the situation. Peoples Gas came back out to assess and said the plumbers did a great job- we got our gas turned back on. I highly recommend this business!
