Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

Excellent plumber, reasonably priced, on time and professional.  We have used them many times and have always been very pleased with the outcome. I have recommended them to many of our friends & neighbors.

Highest recommendation.  Great service, responsivie, and fairly priced.  A leaky valve in the bathroom and we replaced those in the other bathrooms.  Very professional and polite - if I ever need plumbing work done again, this will be my choice!

Brandon was quick to assist us after we bought our new condo and had a decent list of post inspection items that needed addressing! We needs plumbing work done on our faucet and toilet, repairs made to the kitchen sink, closet door and laundry room! Brandon was able to work with us at a good price and speedy service. Can't recommend KBN Homes enough!!

Travis and D&L are superb.  We had quick communication and a painless scheduling process all through Yelp messaging.  Travis was very patient and helpful in answering questions.  He expertly installed a new sump pump and also did a fresh install of a backup sump and battery backup.  He uses only top quality products that far exceed the quality of what other companies were quoting me.  His price is also very fair - particularly for the high-end product he installed.  While he was there, I also asked him to adjust the thermostatic mixing valve on a Grohe shower, which he was able to do quickly and at no additional charge.  In short, I would highly recommend you get a quote from Travis/D&L Sewer for any plumbing need.  This is a family owned business that values customer service at a fair price.  Glad to have a plumber I trust!

Quick responsive service. Rich did great job in clearing sewer stack. Thanks so much.

We had an issue with our sink and there was a leak all over our basement. Although not a super emergency, he came out right away and fixed it. We have not had problems since. Great to have great professionals in our neighborhood who can provide quick, efficient, and affordable services. Support local businesses.

Tom and his guy Mike are awesome! Same day service with great affordable prices. Came after hours without the expense. Even without the after hours where less expensive then the 'big' companies. Didn't walk away from crawling under my deck to get into the crawl space. I needed my main sewer line rodded out where the only clean out as I know was present and these guy did it without hesitation. Gave great suggestions to prevent tree roots from reoccurring. I've saved them in my contacts and plan on using them and telling friends/family about them for any future needs. If I could give 10 stars I would. You guys are welcome back for a brew anytime. Thank you again.

Whiting Plumbing does quality work for a reasonable price!  They don't advertise too much so you must have been referred to them by family or friends.  Lane is knowledgeable and prompt!  We've used Whiting Plumbing to re-pipe our old house with new copper pipes, put in a new higher toilet, unclog and put a new wax ring on our upstairs toilet, and complete the plumbing when we installed a new tub!  He also installed a new wash tub and faucet in the basement and installed a new faucet in the kitchen!  I feel Lane is honest and reliable.  I would recommend Whiting Plumbing to anyone who needs a plumbing problem solved!

Since moving into This Old House 2 1/2 years ago we've found issues left and right that needed fixing.   For almost that entire length of time, our upstairs toilet was out of commission.  The downstairs one always had to have the handle held to flush completely.  Also we discovered a leak in the basement everytime we flushed it.   The kitchen faucet was constantly leaking.  The basement laundry basin was nonfunctional and in recent months the upstairs sink kept getting clogged.    In short it was a mess.

Of course we had to prioritize that against old gutters, inefficient windows, an old radiator, and general maintenance.   To top it off I was laid off last September.   So money of course was as Simply Red would sing..too tight to mention.    Yep showing my age.

Things thankfully turned around for the time being and we finally were able to tackle the plumbing this summer.

I searched Yelp and Chalmers was among the three I reached out to.   One I didn't hear back from and Chalmers and another company reached back saying to contact for more details.

I read the Yelp reviews of the remaining contender and those scared me off.  I saw Chalmers had all positive  (albeit only a few).  

I took a chance and am glad I did.  David was courteous on phone as I detailed all that needed to be done.  I scheduled a free estimate and he came by promptly as D showed him our situation.

The price he came back with seemed pretty fair so I agreed to have him do the work.    He finished everything on my laundry list within 2 hours.   It ended up for the toilets that both had shoddy work on the wax ring which caused the leaking.    Replacing the toilets and putting the wax ring properly solved the leaking issue.  He was very professional and through during the whole visit.    And I was very pleased with the results.

David's the real deal.  If you need any kind of plumbing work, take a chance on him.   Flush the rest...LOL.

Great service! Would definitely recommend! Dave and Paul--came on time and fixed the problem!

Great first time experience (scheduling process, plumber arrival/assessment/repair and price. Repairs: outdoor water spigot and air switch for disposal.

Submitted a request on Sunday and Jeff responded quickly scheduling for Monday. The price was quoted, and Jeff was on time. He got to work unclogging the sink and we discovered the clog was further down the line, and went to work cleaning it out from the basement. Jeff remained calm, professional, and got the clog removed, while also teaching g me a thing or two. Jeff even looked at something else, continued the education, and quoted me for another job. When it came time to pay the price charged was the agreed upon price even though he was here longer than either of us expected. I've had my eyes ripped out by plumbers in the past, but I now feel confident that I found a company that will charge a fair price for fair work.

Hire Southland Plumbing for plumbing needs. Excellent service, fair pricing.

This is the first time using this company and the service was great!!  Called in the  morning and Mr. Travis was here by early afternoon. He is professional and knowledgeable.  If you're in need of quality plumbing services at a fair price, he's your man.  Would definitely call again.

Had a great experience with Karl Meyer Plumbing.  I called about our garbage disposal on Thursday evening.  By Friday morning, Fred had brought out a new disposal and would have installed it then but he didn't have to because he was able to fix it, saving me a bunch of money.  He was professional and friendly.  I wouldn't hesitate to call them next time I have a plumbing issue.

Amazing company, while others tried to charge us a lot with our hot water heater pump, Aqua Pro gave a strategy plan with how they'll tackle the issue starting with a low risk solution to a more comprehensive one in the event the initial low risk solution doesn't work. Other just quickly jumped to costly big project routes. I really appreciate Alex walking me through, and finding the proper solution. They saved us $1500 on cost over the other plumbing companies that came to assess our issue. Thanks, Alex!

Quick efficient job clearing up tub drain. Drains like brand new. Was able to push back appt same day and although plumber arrived half hour late, it was not a problem. He was polite, and quick about his business. Honored original quoted price between landlord and management, after price discrepancy.

We placed a NO HOT WATER call back on February 19, 2022 for an 8 Unit Condo building that our office manages. Tech came out the following day and placed a call to their Supervisor to help assess the situation over the phone. They determined that a new, larger system was required. Installation was scheduled for 2 days later. They required a deposit of half the balance and the remainder upon completion. They were barely going to leave the property once the installation was completed, until payment was received (which they ended up driving to my home office to pick up a company check). COST = $4,400. Less than 2 weeks later, there were reports of issues with water temperature and/or pressure. Full disclosure, Residents of this building had experienced issues in the past, but they had gotten worse after the installation of this larger system. They did come out a couple of times, to check things out, at no additional charge, but one visit resulted in installing a part that has proven to be pointless. With that visit, they would not leave until payment was received. One of the Unit Owners had to use their own credit card on the spot. COST = $678. When they came back out in mid March, some adjustments were made to the equipment and that was followed up by poor attempts to access units to see if that had helped matters. Not once did the tech on site give my office a call to get help in accessing units. About three weeks later (mid-April), we sent, via email, what each unit was experiencing with the water pressure and/or temperatures. We had to follow up the first week of May to have a tech come back out. For that visit, we were told that they needed to gain access to every single unit. Owners and Tenants had to change their plans or work schedules for that day to be present. I even coordinated with one of the Unit Owners to get their keys, since they could not be present, and we wanted to make sure they'd be able to gain access to that particular Unit. By the time I arrived, their tech had come and gone...with no phone call letting me know. To be clear, I was on my way to the property when I found out their tech was arriving shortly. Point being, they were not there long at all. After at least 1-1/2 days of trying to get in touch with the owner or a manager, I was finally able to set up another visit for May 9th. For the SECOND time, I made arrangements for techs to gain access to each and every unit (as directed by J Blanton). For the SECOND time, Owners and Tenants had to change their plans or work schedules for that day to be present. I even coordinated with one of the Unit Owners to get their keys, since they could not be present, and we wanted to make sure they'd be able to gain access to that particular Unit. Upon my arrival at the Property at 11:20a, I could not see any of the techs around so I called their office only to be told that the techs had met with someone and saw what they needed to see and left...and to expect a proposal later that day...oh...and they really didn't need to get into every Unit. With the proposal, they provided the Condo Association with two options: 1) install an additional hot water heater for $6,215 and HOPE that it will resolve the issues or 2) install a traditional tank for $14,325 that will most likely resolve this Condo building's issues and concerns with water temperature and/or pressure. When I spoke with their specialist, I explained our frustration and disappointment in the way things had been handled and in their overall lack of communication. We believe that if they had as much motivation as they did in collecting payments, perhaps they would have done their due diligence from the beginning and suggested we install the equipment that would have likely resolved the issues from the start. We feel the Board could have made a better financial decision had the professionals at J Blanton advised and empowered us with more knowledge from their initial visit. Last week, we reached back out in hopes that we could resolve matters, but they have yet to reply.
