Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

There is nothing more disheartening than getting water in your basement, especially when you thought precautions to prevent that had been taken. :(  Chuck and Chas both came out promptly. Ended up opening and diagnosing a broken back water valve. They rodded and then did a camera inspection from the catch basin to the house and from the house to the street. Every step along the way, they answered my questions, offered their professional advice/opinion and worked efficiently, and cleaned up afterward. I would heartily recommend them without reservation. (not sure why the photo is sideways, but it turns right side up when you click on it)

Jan and his Vanguard team are terrific.  We had a sewer issue and he quickly responded with a quote and an onsite visit.  He quickly diagnosed the problem and starting clearing our sewer within the first 30 min.  I was so worried about our issue but his calm demeanor and quick action made all the difference.  He is a pro and you can feel confident putting your plumbing and sewer needs in his hands.  He is a pleasure to do business with.

Working with Victor was a very positive and smooth experience. I asked him to come by to give a quote on installing a backflow valve, and followed up with quite a few questions after he had left. He was very responsive and thorough with answering my questions, and felt comfortable moving forward based on the other great reviews he has here. He and the crew showed up on time, completed the work within a day and he even did a few additional services around the house before he left (reset our toilet, rodded some drains). All around his prices were very competitive and he was great to work with. We will be calling him again next time we're in need of plumbing services.

Getting a handyman through Fixer was so easy! I was able to schedule a same day appointment for 4pm and Chang arrived right on time, that flexibility to schedule him with what works for me and the reliability alone were totally worth it! Chang was professional and did a great job at installing our garbage disposal. I also liked that since it's a flat rate for each visit, I didn't feel the pressure to get through my entire list of fixes, but i can slowly chip away at it for no extra cost if I only have someone out for a small fix.

Excellent service all around. From the response time to the actual work done at my house all with an upmost professional attitude and dedication.
Cannot recommend them enough!

Finally a plumbing company I feel like I can trust. Bert came, give his honest option and found the actual source of our issue.  We already went through two other companies (one plumbing and one waterproofing) that were useless and costly.  We were having odor in our sump pump that was penetrating the whole house. US waterproofing is one company that I wont ever recommend... they promised they could help, but did a poor job and sold us a useless solution, and then never returned my messages after they got paid. This company and Bert on the other hand, quickly returned my calls, came promptly on time, and gave me honest opinions that weren't based on money.  Bert was able to find that the neighbors sewer was blocked / broken and their sewage was leaking into our exterior drain tile system. While there was some distance to get inside our place, it was enough to generate an odor. Again, two other companies didn't have the knowledge or ethical standards to help us. Any other plumbing / sewer items in the future, I'll be returning to Bert and All Rooter Hydro Jetting.

Excellent same day service. Highly recommend. Came out within 4 hours of placing call. Staff very accommodating and friendly!!

I cannot say enough about the customer service I received from Gary / Plumbing Pros.  Simply amazing.  I have a rental property in Aurora and the tenant had not 1, but 2 toilets with issues.  Gary had someone to the property in the same day to assess the situation, provided an immediate quote,  and it was repaired right away the next day.  Not to mention the price was more then reasonable.  I highly recommend Plumbing Pros and will be using them from here on out!

Had a really great experience with 24/7. We had a (non emergency) shower cartridge change. They were super responsive to my quote request, gave us a very competitive rate, and came promptly on times they offered to come that same day.

After having other several bad plumbing experiences, we've felt taken advantage of by other plumbers.  We're very happy with our experience with 24/7 and will gladly give them our business again.

Captain Rooter Emergency Plumbers responded and resolved the small gas leaks in basement promptly and efficiently. Very pleased w the attitude and professionalism of Gabe, the service tech, who drove all the way from Chicago. Nicor confirmed that the gas leaks were resolved & turned gas back on. While the total cost was expensive, at least i have peace of mind that I know there are no small gas leaks which probably existed for who knows how long? Hopefully this equates into savings on my gas bill!

Can't recommend these folks highly enough. They have worked on a variety of projects for us, big stuff and small, and in every case they have been responsive, courteous, knowledgeable, professional and a joy to deal with. It starts at the top, with Peter. He listens carefully to our description of the problem and is thoughtful in his reply. Same goes for the guys who come out do the work. I think their prices are fair and because they have so earned our trust, I actually feel like we're getting more than our money's worth.

I got tired of trying to have my contractors finish all the little details that are left after a remodel, so I looked for 'a handyman' to just be able to tie up all those details* I picked Tim because his location was close to me..Boy did I get lucky!!! Tim is on time, professional and very experienced, he thinks on his feet,comes up with creative solutions to details left by 'the other guy:(  Did wonderful work in a timely manner,Basically I gave him a punch list from leveling a floor to rehanging stainless shelves, that were not level..I have started my next punch list for him to take care of, I am thrilled to have found him and will be using his services for all my future handyman projects*

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.

After a minor overflow caused by torrential rains we had some water seep in through our drains leaving minimal, but standing water. I was away on business and found this team through YELP. They responded instantly, despite the majority of the city having flooded.

Robert arrived, explained honestly that outside of a flood prevention system, this was likely to be an issue. But in his inspection noticed that our pumps were clogged as well as our catch basin, which was severely backed up. We were informed that, clearing these may have helped prevent the water seepage but wouldn't guarantee it. However I knew these systems needed to be cleaned and maintained and he offered to help us on the spot. I appreciate honestly. They're also very confident and knowledgeable about what to do and expect.

This is a team I will call for any plumbing needs in the future. Knowing I can ask a question, get an honest answer, and the work done is peace of mind not always available.

Had a clog in the house main plumbing line , had a different plumber come out to Rod the line . The next 2 days , the problem was worse .

So I called a new plumber (Ray, with emergency plumbers ) , he came out on that weekend day. Was very responsive , nice , did rodding again but farther out to sewer , fixed the blockage . Thanks ray

Mikey and Joey were very punctual. They asssesed the situation I was having at my condo, and provided options to solve the plumbing problem. They were very professional. I highly recommend. Also, the customer I spoke early that morning was courteous. Thank you to Goode plumbing!

I screwed up...

I put some stuff down the garbage disposal that I shouldn't have. Clogged it up. Needed help.

Here comes Jim from Zuniga. Jim was super professional, informative, and went the extra mile to fix the problem. I live in an old building and he had to basically rework the entire system to get me working again. I'm eternally grateful.

I really didn't want to have a conversation with the landlord. Jim hooked me up today and I will never call anyone else for my plumbing needs as long as I'm within range of Zuniga's.

If you can't tell, I'm a happy customer.
