Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

It took over two hours but we resolved several problems that have been bugging me for years in this vintage apartment.

1. They were able to come right away on a Saturday!
2. They unclogged a completely clogged kitchen sink and replaced a rotting drain.
3. Determined that garbage disposal and ancient plumbing do not mix, advised we not use it.
4. Cleaned trap in bathroom sink that is slow to drain.
5. Identified hole in hose for dishwasher drain (need to schedule that repair).
6. Identified problem with low pressure in hot water supply in the other bathroom sink; need to shut off building water to fix, will submit to co-op board (collective problem, not just mine).

The plumbers were friendly and polite throughout, explaining everything to me. Outstanding service.

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.

Joe came out to fix a ruptured pipe in my wall.   He was quick to respond and instantly knew how to tackle the problem.  He was extremely quick and explained everything he was doing in detail.  His price was more than fair.  Great experience.  Highly recommend!

This company is awesome. Trent responded to late night Yelp messages instantly, estimated a great price and had Trinidad Rivera at my door at 9am as promised. Trinidad was in & out in 10 minutes while fixing the problem. Trent & Trinidad are both very nice in addition to the great service performed. Would absolutely use them again and recommend this company.

The recent cold snap caused a pipe to blow.  I woke up at 6:00 am on Dec. 27 and found water that was ankle deep throughout the entire basement.  When I called Reeg, they called back within a half hour.  They asked if I had to turn off the water to the entire house.  I answered yes since the leak was behind a wall.  I can imagine how many calls they received throughout that weekend over Christmas weekend for burst pipes.  It was obvious they were doing triage to get to the people who had no water.  Reeg was out that day to stop the leak and at least get the main water back on.  I'm letting the wall and all the rest of the basement dry out, then will call Reeg back to finish the job.  They were great.

Dennis quoted a very reasonable price.
He was right on time the day of the work in our condo bldg.  He installed a new bath sink faucet and shower head that we had purchased. We also needed new shut off valves that he ran out to the hardware store because we didn't know what size we needed.. He did a great job and was pleasant to work with. Very happy we hired him.

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!

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!).

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!

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

Great work! Very responsive! Came and fixed leaking water pipes at an affordable rate. Would definitely recommend

Wonderful service, came the same day (a Saturday no less), solved one medium-sized problem and was able to solve a second issue which could have been a big headache.  Thanks to Dave G for professional, friendly service.

Over the years, I've come to only use Anderson Plumbing for my plumbing needs. They're quick to respond, have great staff from the office to the service people and do good work.
We recently had a major leak at my mom's house and the only company to call was Andersen. I can't say enough positive things about Mario, who has done numerous jobs for us, both at our home and at our rental properties. Like always, he gets the job done, is friendly & respectful and is one of my favorites.
I highly recommend this company for any of your plumbing needs. They also do HVAC work.

We've found our forever plumber!

Woke up to our sump pump running continuously and producing a really strong electrical smell from the pit.  Unplugged it immediately and first called a different plumbing service that was recommended by a local Facebook group.... That other plumber's answering service said they would have a plumber call me back. I got tired of waiting for them after a while, so I called Right Away who was able to actually dispatch someone *right away* and Jorge arrived within the hour.

He replaced the dead sump, did a check of our entire system and found a related issue, fixed that, and also installed some other parts throughout the house to help keep things flowing smoothly. All of the work was done fast (but not in a way where I felt like he rushed) and for a cost less than an earlier quote I had for just a sump replacement without diagnostic or preventive work.

Jorge happily described all of the work he was doing and showed a real passion for his work and pride of a job well done.

Friendly, patient, passionate, reasonable prices, and no extra charge for working on Saturday!  With overwhelming many options for plumbers in Chicago, I'm glad to have landed on someone I can trust.

proficient plumbing - but pay a premium.
Tub drain replacement should have been 200-300$, bill was $650. good grief.
Found NAZ plumbing at the hardware store, local family owned in Bridgeview (872) 800-7943 for balance of work, at an affordable price.

I think I've reviewed these guys before -- they've certainly done good work for me in the past, which is why I called them in to install my garbage disposal. Did a great job at a great price, and when something went awry, they came back out fast and fixed it. Will definitely use again!
