Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

I couldn't be happier with All Star Plumbing.  They were able to help me out in a crunch at a very competitive price point.  Service was exemplary.  I have had some serious issues finding good plumbers... but this crew I called in the morning - just happened to be in the neighborhood and was able to provide a quote - pick up new water heater, and install all in the same day.  I was more than pleased.  And received a call the next day to make sure everything worked ok.  Family run business that has become our go to plumber going forward.  Thanks All Star!

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.

Well, I read all these great reviews but unfortunately, I had a very different experience with Mo's work. He was hired to switch out an over the sink bathroom light. The job took less than 20 minutes and he charged $230.00, I felt it was a lot high for 20 mins of work, but I agreed. Anyway, he didn't center the light over the sink, and I was very unhappy with the result and let him know it. He got very defensive telling me that it was impossible to center the light over the sink, without moving the electrical box housing the wires, this would entail him putting a hole in the wall, patching the wall and that would cost an additional $180.00 to do and he didn't have the time that day and would have to come back when he was in the area. That brings the cost now to install to $410.00! I was so upset that after he left, with my mother's help, I removed the light from the wall and located the electrical box behind the fixture. I found that all I had to do was remove the 3 anchoring screws on the holding plate, move the holding plate over an inch to be centered over the sink, reinstall the screws in new hole, then rehang the light, to center over the sink.
The next day, though he told me that he rarely comes to my area, he wanted to come by and center the light, and make that easy $180.00. I told him I no thanks and goodbye.  I don't like feeling that I was taken advantage of, but I was.

Reliable, respectful, knowledgeable, prompt and trustworthy. Thank you! Will call again for any future needs!

As someone new to the area in need of a plumber, I did what I normally do when looking for information - I turned to Yelp. Great reviews always get my attention and Moody had them. So I called and left a message. Joe was quick to respond, had me take a few photos of the plumbing under the kitchen sink and email them so he could give me a quote for the garbage disposal installation.

He responded with an estimate that was significantly lower than another I had received, and we got it scheduled. Martin showed up at 7:30 AM, right on time, put his shoe covers on and got right to work. He was pleasant, efficient, and made sure everything was working properly and without leaks. And when he finished he gave me the invoice and it was $100 less than the estimate! When does that ever happen? That's the way to earn repeat business! I'll certainly keep Moody Plumbing in my approved contractors file.

Very unsatisfied with this company thus far. Fist step was they were late to the first meeting and this, after a two hour window of waiting. Second, they promised to provide quote within a couple of days of visit. That was not done. In fact, I can them ten days after visit, left a voicemail and now 13 days after visit, still no response. Will not be doing business here.

I have used Reeg a few times. They come out quickly, work fast, and do a great job. They are super professional and their rates are competitive. They are my go to.

This is my third time working with Denny and would absolutely recommend it. He's reliable, trustworthy and professional. He does a great job. I wouldn't use anybody else to repair things around my house.

Construction and services replaced 3 toilets and hauled away the old toilets. The work was good and the cost was reasonable. Would certainly use again.

We've used Preferred Plumbing before and always have found them quick to respond with great service. However, after today's encounter with them, I wanted to take time to leave a review. I failed to get the plumber's name, but initials on the invoice are MJ.

Late last night I was cleaning out cabinets and tossing various items into my garbage disposal. Without too much thought, I poured in a half bag of dry black beans. After awhile, the sink stopped draining and I knew I'd made a huge error in judgement. I scooped out a lot of the now chopped black beans in hopes that would do the trick. Also suctioned out all of the extra water in the sink, and tried a plunger ... all fails! Fessed up to my husband who called Preferred Plumbing.

I was NOT looking forward to facing the plumber with my confession. One other time, I'd stopped up the disposal with flower stems (thinking they were like vegetables) and had gotten a friendly lecture from the plumber (not from PP). However M. J. could not have been nicer or more professional. Never once did he reprimand my error in judgement. He was pleasant while he took apart the drain (which was totally clogged with now hardened black bean pieces). When I apologized again he jokingly said that he'd heard that garbage disposals are a plumber's best friend and that I was not alone in all of this. He was friendly, efficient, cleaned up everything and when I offered him a tip for his positive attitude, he tried to refuse it. It was truly a pleasure working with him. He made a very positive impression on me (and I'll try not to dispose of other items just to see him in the future!).

My sewage pump was continuously running and not shutting off so I called Sinks-N-Sumps at 10:30pm because I was worried it would fail overnight. I spoke with Dominick who asked me a series of questions and had me send a picture of my pump. We spent about 30 minutes on the phone trying to debug the problem and applying simple solutions, but nothing worked. We concluded that the pump was too old and needed to be replaced so I made an appointment for the next day (Christmas Eve). The next day Dominick and Alonzo worked tirelessly for five hours to replace my pump. Several issues cropped up due to how the original builder installed the pump, but Dominick kept me informed throughout the process while educating me on how everything worked. What I appreciated most, is that there were several times when the pump was in a good-enough state and they could have left to enjoy their Christmas Eve but instead they made sure things were working perfectly before they left. I can't thank them enough for the work they put into replacing my pump and I will definitely be using them again in the future for any plumbing problems.

They always come to help my business! They do an amazing job, they are so honest and come quickly when I need someone last minute. I would highly recommend them to any business looking for an honest quick fix to your plumbing problems! Thank you Red Hot Plumbing!

Called Patrick for a problem with our water tank. He came out the next day to fix the problem, very fair prices and efficient.

Noe is very professional. Price is very reasonable. He fixed the water pressure of my showers both bathrooms and they work great now. He also installed a bidet spray on my toilet - all within an hour. I will definitely be using him in the future. Thanks Affordable Plumbing!

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.

We had a bit of an emergency at the house because we didn't know where the shutoff was and I was in the hospital so I couldn't help. I called and they took care of everything from calling the city to have them come turn it off, to getting someone there same day, and telling us what to buy for replacement. Have came and did a great job installing and then the next day, we still didn't have hot water so I called and Jason walked us through restarting our hot water heater over the phone. Great customer service and attention to detail!! Thank you!

The tub and sink in my guest bath were stopped up and a neighbor recommended Right Away Plumbing.  First, they didn't show up right away by a long shot and secondly, they charged a fortune for work that last under an hour ($640!).  Then I asked for an estimate for a leak they found in the sink.  When I finally received it, I was shocked at the price (close to $2k).  Found someone else who charged me $125!  This place is a rip off in my humble opinion.

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.

Update!  When the backflow valve was installed, I put a camera in my front window to document the whole process.  When the owner learned of this, he asked if he could have a copy of the video for his own marketing purposes.  I said sure, even made a time-lapse of the footage for him.  He said he'd give me a free cleanout (annual maintenance) in exchange.

Well the time came to schedule the annual cleanout, and despite my previous issues with 4S Plumbing, I figured I may as well cash in on that free cleanout.  I contacted 4S and scheduled the work, and the guy who came out was a contractor who had his own processes and knew nothing about the deal I had with 4S.  He gave me an invoice, I wrote him a check, and hoped the owner would honor his word.

I even texted him about it.  He said he never got the footage.  So I resent him the link, again hoping he'd figure out how to download it and...honor his word.

Well you can probably guess where this is going...sure enough, that check got deposited, and no further word from 4S about my alleged free cleanout.

This company is trash.  Avoid at all costs.
