Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

1925 Bungalow Blues, verse 27.
We had all the faucets set to fast drip...except for the kitchen sink, which is right against the outside wall. So, no running water in the kitch this morning. Hey, we got these space heaters! One under the sink, one in the basement, what could possibly go wrong?

(fast forward a few hours)

Hey, the faucet is starting to drip just a bit! Hooray! But, what's that strange sound coming from the basement?

(cut to basement shot)

Why, it's the Bellagio fountains! Beautiful! Hot steamy water just pouring down the wall. Picturesque in its own horribly messy way. Quick! move all the laundry stuff, drag the junky rug out of the way. How to stop the water? Who were the plumbers we used before?
Yelp to the rescue! I just started speed dialing thru the list, leaving messages, texts, asking for a plumber TODAY. My wife comes home after braving the weather to perform her canine mobility and support work in the sub-zero arctic conditions. Oh great!
We BOTH start calling every plumbing number we can find.

About an hour into the telethon, I get a call back!
(angelic choir singing Hosanna!)
I'm sending my guy Vinny. He'll be there in an hour.
(slightly over an hour later)
Vinny and his buddy Henry made it here and fixed not 1, not 2, but THREE burst pipes. It's a temp fix, and they're coming back on Saturday to make it all nice and spiffy again.

THANK YOU ALL STAR PLUMBING!

I was very happy with their installation of my Rheem hybrid heat pump water heater. It was kind of complicated and I was having a hard time finding someone to install it. They did it quickly and at a good price. Thanks again.

Great job, very responsive and professional. I had a small punch list of repairs, all taken care of easily!

We had a bad situation in our crawlspace with water escaping from a blown check valve. A&T came out within the hour to stop the water and replace the sump pump that was old. The line was also rodded out. The work was done timely, efficiently and professionally. We are happy with the service and highly recommend to others. Also, the company is very knowledgeable in mold and offers corrective remediation solutions.

Had a gas line issue and needed to get a section of pipe replaced quickly. Luckily I found Moody Plumbing as they did an incredible job. Not only were they very fairly priced, they came out quickly and were very professional. The work they did looks great and they even came out same day.

Can't give these guys enough praise and it was great to find honest and reasonable plumbers who clearly know their stuff. I would strongly encourage you to at least give them a call if you need plumbing work done.

Have used A Solutions several times over the years for jetting our sewer line and they have always been very responsive, professional and answered all of our questions.  Highly recommend!

We have used Reeg plumbing for over 20 years. Recently we needed to replace washers in powder room bathroom.  When you call to leave a message,  1st question is always are you a customer presently
When plumber came he did not have the part.  part was ordered and 2 weeks later was installed.  When I received invoice there was a charge for initial visit and subsequent installation visit. It cost over $300 to replace washer.  When I questioned the charge, I was told I got a break, and the 'old poor me about hard it is staying in business.'  The plumber was in my home for less than half an hour-not my fault he did not have part and had to return.  Very disappointed and very expensive

I have a condo that needed to get rent ready for the next tenant. It needed quite a bit of work. He managed it beautifully. Identified some things that I was not aware of that were of concern. Easy to communicate with and on point with the work.

Our basement flooded on a Saturday afternoon after running our washing machine, so I put out a request through yelp and Oscar responded within 5 minutes. He was there within two hours, diagnosed the problem and then came back the next morning (Sunday) to replace an ejector pump. His price was very competitive and he worked really hard to solve the problem the right way. Also, Lilly was very reassuring over the phone that they would get the problem diagnosed correctly before doing any work. Most importantly, I didn't have to wait for great service. Thanks, Oscar and Lilly!

Excellent service, fast response time, accurate and
reasonable rates. What more do you want in a Plumber?

I have never written a review before but joined Yelp just to write one for Dominick.  I had a clogged toilet that I had tried augering and plungering but nothing worked.  He provided a pretty clear cost estimate over the phone, but when he came over he used a diagnostic trick to identify a cheaper way to fix the problem, and in the end he charged less than the lower end of the range he had quoted.  Other plumbers I talked to took a look and didn't even bother using creative problem solving to find a solution, and they quoted triple what Dominick charged.  I will never use any other plumber, ever, as long as I live in Chicago.

We had a leak and these guys were so immediately responsive and communicative and they were able to fix our issue so quickly. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

A-1 Patrick's Plumbing & Sewer is a company I recommend. I actually had the pleasure of working directly with the owner, Patrick. Patrick is young but he is very knowledgeable about plumbing and sewer issues. I had Patrick and his crew out to remedy a major plumbing issue that left my basement flooded that another plumbing company had left me high and dry with. Patrick scheduled my appointment right away within his schedule. He kept me updated with any schedule delays and he with another worker arrived on the day scheduled and they worked on unclogging my aged catch basin. They worked for hours first to rod the line and then to jet rod when the routine rodding didn't relieve the clog. Patrick assessed the condition of the basin while working and we found that a previous company left or may have accidentally dropped their latex gloves in the catch basin and along with its aged walls crumbling they clogged the line. Patrick got the line clear and he also unclogged a basement bathroom sink for me. He explained that the remedied catch basin clog removal may stay open for a few months or years but recommended that I plan to get the basin rebuilt. He gave me an estimate on the spot and we got the estimate in October or November of 2018 that he wrote was good for a few months to prepare and budget for to have the work done later. Also, Patrick explained to me that for work like that I would be paying for my materials which was the bricks and he explained when it was the best time to get them during the down time of the season to secure lower prices on them. I ended up taking Patrick's bid/estimate and got the new catch basin put in the following spring. I opted for the new basin over rebuild because I was getting the aged basin removed and new materials with warranty on the work that lasted a bit longer than just a rebuild. Patrick scheduled the date for the work and they arrived as promised and the work was done in 2-3 days. And we've had no more clogged catch basin and when we last had a heavy rain out basement was dry while our neighbor's basements where flooding. I don't know if the new catch basin or the check valve I have made the difference but it was comforting knowing my basement wasn't flooding. It cost me about $5k for the new catch basin. About $650 for the jet rodding before we got the new catch basin. I recommend A-1Patrick. And they travel all over Chicago.

He  responded quickly. Gave great  advice on solving my tub drainage issues. I highly recommended them.

Yet another messy emergency, and the guys from DiFoggio are there for me. This time, my bathtub and washing machine were backing up into my shower (not in the same place as the tub). I called Monday; they were short a couple guys, so couldn't make it Monday, would Tuesday be okay? Sure; it wasn't the toilets backing up (thank the stars), so it could wait.

The nicest guy showed up Tuesday, took a look at everything, and figured out that the sewer line needed rodding out. He spent a good hour (if not more) trying to cut through the clog with what looked to me to be the world's longest snake. He tried a couple things with that, found that the clog was just too intractable, and suggested coming out the next day with what he called a hydro-jet - a gadget that would shoot 4000 psi water through the pipe; most of the time that does the job. He gave me a price quote on the spot; I was relieved, as I had visions of this costing me upwards of $10K to dig up the yard.

OK. Guys (this is a two-man job now) came back today and set about water-blasting the clog out of the sewer line. It was probably good enough after an hour, but they wanted to really clean everything out, and spent another hour doing just that.

So... now my sewer line is squeaky clean (or as close to it as it's going to get). They didn't mind that I wanted to watch what they were doing, they didn't treat me like an idiot, and it didn't cost anywhere near as much as my first new car. I recommend DiFoggio to anyone who will listen.

Crew showed up on time, were fast and thorough ! Project came in under bid and everyone from the office help on the phone to the techs that did the job were outstanding. We're customers for life now! 5 Stars!

the best plumber Relaible trusted great job experience best customer service will recommend

I called Szabo plumbing for a clog in my master bath. 2 plumbers came out and in fixing the clog released water into my foyer. They cut a hole in my ceiling and left me with it. I spoke with many people at Szabo plumbing including Kevin, who promised a repair. A drywaller called twice and didn't show up both times. Calling Szabo again didn't get any results, so I was left to hire someone to repair my ceiling.

I've lived in many houses & have  had to deal with many plumbers. This particular company however is quite unique &special.Not only are they fairly priced, flexible, & reliable;they are incredibly We'll managed. What I mean by this is that the owner of the company often deals with you personally. You don't have to go through layers of people to get some  thing done. Bill the owner, Actually Calls customers back himself He is very responsive and available.If you have a problem during the day you can text him and he'll get back to you. If it's after hours & you have anything from a plumbing crisis to an EXTRA You've requested you can usually find him working late at the office taking care of details .He has  diligent employees from the skilled workers to the support staff reflecting what the company  prioritizes from the top down..You'll  often be dealing with Bill rather than  him being called in if something goes awry He's truly caring and very hands-on which only servers  to make his customers feel
Highly valued as they are!
