Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

Plumber was very condescending over the phone and clearly did not want to take on the work. I was told that free estimates don't apply to condominium buildings. Very disappointed in the lack of professionalism and transparency with Apex.

Jan is the man. My condo building was rehabbed about 10 years ago, and as all the homeowners have painfully learned, the workmanship was a bit shoddy. My dual basin sink in my kitchen started leaking on both sides and I was living with buckets under each sink. Turns out the materials were very cheap (no surprise there.)

Jan came out, replaced the drain basins and the sinks are as good as new. He offered a free home inspection, and while he was here offered to clean out the slow drain in my bathroom.

He was totally nice and professional (and prompt - got here at 8 am on the dot). I will definitely call Vanguard and Jan again!

Victor is a rock star!  He rodded my kitchen sink that had a bad grease clog.  He took out the rusting pipes and replaced them with PVC.  Plus he's the nicest guy ever.  I would have paid three times as much with a different plumber.  He had the best estimate.  I highly recommend him!!!

finally the internet solves the home fixit problem. No more confusion about cost, bills, scheduling.  This thing is going to blow up

Had an excellent experience with Drain Works. They helped me work through a number of violations and come up with cost-effective solutions in a restricted timeline. Excellent communication and thought partnership.

Excellent work throughout. Very thorough and knowledgeable about the work being done. Showed up with mask and booties on  All Rooter Hydro Jetting from here on out.

My daughter calls me the other night and tells me her water heater wasn't working. I told her to give Kevin a call. It was too late at night so they came out first thing the next morning. Her water heater was leaking from the bottom, they needed to replace it. They quoted me over the phone and I told them to go ahead install it for her. I have previously used them at my house so they gave me a discount, which was nice of them. If I knew how to install a water heater I would have done it myself, but it'll that to the pro's. Well a couple hours in, they had that heater installed and connect. They called me back to get a credit card from me. I gave them my information and they email me a receipt. My daughter got home from work and said that she couldn't even tell that someone had been there. That's what I like to hear. Good work, from good guys.

Yelp reviewers were spot on with the great reviews. We needed a kitchen faucet replaced. Gary helped me make a decision on selection over the phone. Rick was right on time and made sure we understood charges before he started. He explained the process, showed us how the faucet works and what to look for if there are any problems. Gary called me later to make sure we were satisfied.

Sent a request through Yelp at 11am in the morning and Jesse was out later that evening. Had a wire that was not connected from a previous electricians job and that electrician would not have been able to come back for a few days. 24/7 was able to come out the same day and got everything taken care of. Great service and fair pricing. They're definitely now my first call if I have any issues that they're able to take care of.

The service guy Brandon was very professional and friendly, cleaned up after job was completed.rating is a 7.all work done well I had frozen pipes that bursted.

We used Arco when we had an issue in our upstairs shower that was leaking into the ceiling downstairs.  Jason came out and he was very professional and upfront with what needed to be done.  In addition to the shower, Jason was able to fix a leaky shower head in the basement as well as a leaky outdoor faucet.  I will be using Arco again if necessary and I would highly recommend them for their honesty and affordability.

My project, which was to replace the rotted trim around the entry doors of a rental property proved more challenging than was initially anticipated. Tim came up with a solution, and executed the work to my complete satisfaction.
He arrived on time, and somehow survived a trip to Home Depot to pick up supplies, when half of Chicago had decided to spend their Memorial Day there!
I would definitely hire him again

I had a clogged underground downspout drain in La Grange area.  Just noticed it during installation of new gutters, replacing probably 40 year old gutters.  Rooter showed up within an hour for a free estimate.  He got hands on and showed me how extremely jam packed it was with dirt and roots.  It had probably been that way for years and years.

He offered a few solutions and was honest about the probability of it being a total loss anyway after trying those solutions, needing to dig up and replace the pipe.  In the end, I think I'm going to avoid it altogether and go with a normal above ground downspout solution.  

Rooter has fast, reliable, honest service.  I'm going to call them again the next time I need a plumber.

Hi, my name is Ericka Matthews. Chicago Experts Sewer did dothe work. However, I still have the sewer smell in my house. The area 3 employees dug the hole in September 2022. The dirt ​is still on top of the other dirt which mean, it's still a huge whole in my yard that need to be filled with the dirt the 3 dug up. The 3 also cut some of the concrete to dig a whole. The manager came out and told me it's not their responsibility to put the dirt back down in the whole or lay the concrete down that they cut. So, I'm highly upset with this company. If any1 had this problem with them. Let's get together hire a lawyer and sue the company. Here are pictures of my front yard.

Very nice guys. But I paid them over $1,300
And couldn't fix the clog. Their next step they were going to dig and fix it. But I had to pay extra $1200.
I called some one else and fix it for $500.
I request a refound of at least half of the $1300.
That I paid for nothing. But just said they will ask the office. The office say they will ask the guy. And still nothing. This is over a month now.

Completely dissatisfied and disgusted with two recent jobs by Goode Plumbing, especially considering that I am a repeat customer (3 jobs in 2020-2021) who had a good experience with this company in the past.  Not only did they not do the job as outlined in the estimate/proposal (rebuild a vintage shower... in fact they did not rebuild anything), but even worse, now the shower is not functioning at all.  So, I paid $1,700 to have damage to my vintage shower that will now cost me at least $1,200 to fix (according to another plumber).  Not to mention that they kept my credit card on file without my authorization and charged the final payments without my authorization.  Also the scheduling and follow up from the office staff was pathetic.  One person seemed to know what was going on and another, completely clueless.  Will not work with this company in the future.

Walter knew exactly what to check for my sewer backup issues. He found the source and cleared the pipe within an hour. Efficient, experienced, and friendly.  Grateful for the work to be done so well, and so quickly.
