Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

Great experience over all.  Requested information via Yelp and heard back inside of an hour.  Had an appointment scheduled for same week.  

Antonio and his associate just came out and pulled multiple small toys out of  our drain and was able to get our bathtub drain (which had virtually zero drainage abilities) draining as if it were brand new - despite the roadblocks as snaking our drain is not an option because we live in a home built in the 1940s with a drum trap.  

Pricing was fair and presented up front with an explanation of the services to be provided before any actual work was done.

Would highly recommend!

We recently had a plumbing disaster right before a major family infestation was about to invade our house.  Shannon and crew, despite dealing with their own substantial work load, were able to juggle everything and get the work done just in the nick of time, and UNDER BUDGET!!!  I really can't thank these guys enough for giving us our family Easter back!  Would recommend performance pro to anyone.

Called Paul on super bowl Sunday when hot water heater broke. After a few pics of our unit , he got back to me wirh an estimate and availability the very next morning. Was timely and professional and explained everything we needed to know. Would definitely recommend !

I have used Forte for several issues at my house and they never disappoint.  Everything is installed as promised, on schedule, and for very reasonable rates.  They plumbed our kitchen, fix a drain issue, and fixed our boozie valve that I had given up hope on long ago.  We have had several plumbers, as well as Carmen and Robert, and no matter who we get they know their stuff.  I will be happy to recommend them to all of my family and friends and know that they are in great hands.

Rescue Plumbing is the best of the best of the best; I can't say enough good things about this company and their service!
I've now had occasion to work with Rescue Plumbing twice, on behalf of my clients (who own rental properties in the city); both times, I worked with Pete.  He answered my call and made sure he came to my client's property that same day.  Pete is terrific; he diagnoses the problem, provides a solution, and presents a very fair price.
Moreover, he works quickly and efficiently.  The work is completed professionally.
Rescue Plumbing has made my job much easier and much more worry-free.  I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to have a company of this calibre, serving my clients.  
I heartily recommend Rescue Plumbing, for all your plumbing & piping needs.

Dominik was amazing.  He was extremely responsive and got us our back up system within a day.  He also takes the time to answer questions and help you from a preventative stand point so you are prepared in case of emergency.  He will be our go to for all sump pump and ejector pump related questions and services.

Peter was so great. We have a ridiculously small access beneath our kitchen sink but he made it work and got our new kitchen faucet installed like a champ
We'll definitely be calling him again!

We have been using Ray as our plumber for 15 years. He's gotten us through some nasty plumbing problems. He's quick to respond to calls. His work is dependable. His prices are reasonable. But today, he earned a permanent place in my heart: he hooked up an icemaker for me!! I love ice in my drinks and hate making it in ice trays. Now, I won't have to thanks to Ray.

We had a technician from Advantage Plumbing come to our home yesterday to diagnose an issue with our master bathroom toilet (as well as to check on two other plumbing issues in our home while he was here).  The tech was Harry Potts and he was very knowledgeable and respectful.  He was able to quickly and specifically assess and address the issues. I would definitely call Advantage Plumbing in the future (if and) when another problem arises.

Also the women who answered the call line (Cynthia -and on a later call- possibly Kim) were very congenial and professional.  I had called 2 other plumbing companies prior to contacting Advantage Plumbing.  Advantage was the first to not only respond to my call but to commit to sending out a tech. within a few hours.  Definitely a 5-Star company and team!

Drain and Plumbing Services did well on a small plumbing job when my home warranty company sent them so I decided to hire them for annual maintenance rodding of the sewer lines in and outside my home.

The service person came, and I told him that I wanted him to rod all of the sewer lines in my home and out to the street as a standard annual maintenance (we had not experienced any clogs, and had performed hydrojetting last summer).

A week and a half after the service, we noticed water seeping under the wall from a bathroom we are not currently using in the basement. We looked in the room and there was an inch of sewage covering the floor that I believe had not been there prior to Drain and Plumbing Service's visit (I had looked inside of that room as I was considering what plumbing tasks were needed in my home, and I did not see or smell any sign of sewage when I did so). I posted on a town Facebook group to check whether anyone had experienced a citywide sewage back up in the recent storms and no one replied that they had.  We also have a flood control system that's up-to-date on maintenance so a back up from the town was unlikely. Typically when the town sewage backs up there are also lots of posts about it, so I concluded the clog must be internal to our home system.

I called Drain and Plumbing Services and they sent their technician out again and he unclogged the pipe. He also said some things that I found troubling but I'm not able to post them here out of fear that the company will sue me since I can't prove that he said what he said.

I called the company and asked if they would remediate since we had drywall, framing and a concrete floor that had been soaked with sewage. Again, I can't describe the details of those conversations here without risk of legal action but I found them extremely troubling. The company did send a remediation expert out to look at my bathroom but after his visit, Drain and Plumbing Services said they were only willing to either refund the original $180 rodding fee, or to pay for disinfection, but were not willing to pay for any drywall removal. The remediation specialist confirmed that the company had said that they were not willing to pay for drywall removal. My reviews of remediation standard practice suggest that drywall that has been soaked with sewage should always be removed, and when I myself then checked the moisture content of the cement board in the walls, I found that the moisture content throughout the bottom 2 feet of plasterboard was indeed elevated, so clearly the sewage had soaked into the walls and needed to be removed from them.

It is also my impression that in order to obtain even the $180 refund or the disinfection services, I would have been required by Drain and Plumbing Services to sign a waiver saying I would not make any negative statements about the company subsequently. By posting a review, I believe that I have ensured they will not do any remediation at all, but even before I posted it seemed to me that II was faced with a choice in which I could not have the remediation done without signing away my rights to write a negative review. If the company feels that my impression was inaccurate, I would be very happy to have at least disinfection services performed, and I will happily revise this message to reflect that.

I will certainly never hire this company again and I strongly recommend that others do not do so either.

* Also, note that I first tried to post this review on Google, and even though I saved it, it did not appear there, so take with a grain of salt the higher star rating of this company in Google.

we have used md plumbing for over 10 years. they have provided major as well as minor services in a timely and very conscientious way. they are totally dedicated to the best service and explaining exactly what the customer is needing, all options available and costs that are realistic. they have been the top service providers to our house which as it ages has needed more of a variety of plumbing services. they are very focused on the relationship with the customer as well as the quality of the work!! all round great company to deal with.

I scheduled an appointment for sewer rodding as a precaution on the advice of my home inspector. Frankie came out and was very honest about our plumbing system. Based on the conversation we decided to not even have the service done. He was super nice about it and didn't try to hard sell us into any other service. Since he was already out at our home he went ahead and completed a free inspection of our hot water heater, ejection pump, and sump pump as well. I felt slightly bad that he came out and I didn't even have to pay for anything, but if I have any plumbing issues in the future I will definitely be calling courtesy plumbing.

We had a small job and no other plumber wanted to touch it. One other plumber gave us a ridiculous price of $800. The Sewer Guy charged us $100, $50 for the part. Greg came out and did an excellent job! I will definitely use them again.

They were available to work quickly, and did good work. David was patient and explained not only what the issues with my plumbing were, but how they were caused.

All in all I felt like they took good care of me.

Work done was replacing a pip with a root rupturing it, cleaning a grease trap, and replacing a toilet seal.

They worked with financing partners that allowed for flexible terms that worked for me.

Derrick was very professional, listen to problem and worked out solution.... need new faucet, water lines ok. He will return to install faucet for a reasonable charge.
I would recommend.

Reliable, trustworthy, professional!!  Fixed my garbage disposal!  Didn't try to up-sell or over charge me!!
Highly recommend!!

UPDATE - Four Seasons reached out to me (several times) to address my complaints.  I had a chance to explain my frustration in how things were handled.  They offered to refund my service fee ($85) for the inconvenience which I accepted.  They apologized for the experience and explained to me they never want a dissatisfied customer.  I stand by what I wrote per my experience but do appreciate the phone call and refund.

Please beware they will charge you a arm and two legs!!!  My husband found Ed the Plumber information in our  church bulletin and expected them to be trustworthy, honest and resonable or simply industry service rate  ( which does not mean cheap), but no they are absolutely the worst wanted to  replace a toliet, they quoted me over 1,750.00!!   I asked what type of  toliet costs that much... he said a Gerber so I wanted to research it  I asked for a model number and was told I DON'T KNOW, the most expensive one I found was 389.99 so are they charging 1300.00 to install, hypothetically even if the toliet costed 750.00 are they charging 1000.00 to install??  Then he said if you purchase the toliet we will install for approximately 700.00!!! I also was going to get my tub caulked since they would already be here they quoted 385.00 for just around the tub!!! This company is the absolute worst type of ripoffs ever, they prey on parishioners seeing  their advertisement in the church bulletin and believe they are contacting a honest business, but the truth is Ed the Plumber is   just using a cheap form of advertisement with a very large potential customer base with a lot of word of mouth. I really wish I could give them a  -0 for a rating!!!

Dishonest company.  I have eight furnaces for my building and they solicited me for a tune-up and turned off the tenant heat, demanding money to turn it back on BEWARE!!
