Best Businesses in Chicago, IL

Friendly, fast and very knowledgeable.  We needed a handyman to come and re-attach our stove hood that fell off the wall the previous night.  Andrew was here the next morning and fixed it better than before.  Would definitely use him again.

Kevin is the best, I call him for any type of handyman work I need.  He's always on time, does a good job and charges a fair price.

From my initial conversation with the scheduler at Armbrust, through the service call by Lou, my experience was extremely positive. Very impressed with how professional and friendly everyone was. Thanks again Lou for doing such a great job!

We had a new garbage disposal installed in October of 2016, and InSink did a great job.  However the other day it fell off.   We called them since they installed it and they charged us $200 to put it back on.    I was stunned and reminded him that they installed it and all he said was that it was last October.   (10 months).  He was probably here 15 minutes.  I could not believe they charged us for something that was probably not installed correctly.   Even the guy himself said these things don't normally happen.  Unfortunately for me I am too timid to speak up.   So while they did what I thought was a good job initially, I'm not happy that they charged so much for 15 minutes work.  I hardly use it.   Not like I put watermelon rinds down into it either.

Loved guy showed up in a mask. He was polite, efficient and prompt. I plan to have him do some work for me after the thanksgiving holiday.

I wanted to give serious props to Ryan at Welter Plumbing.  He called when he said he would. He arrived when he said he would. He was respectful of my home.  He made sure the manufacturer that needed to replace the part for my sink didn't give me the run around.  Oh yeah....and he fixed the problem too.  Highly recommend. This is my plumber for life.

I have used these guys for years and they are terrific! They helped with the work associated with our addition several years ago and then we have used them for a variety of plumbing needs since.

They are very knowledgeable, fair, and they get the job done in the time they say they will. I absolutely trust the work they do.

Central Plumbing guys were great!  I called on Monday morning (Columbus Day) and they were at my house by 11am. They used their camera to check our storm water drains, saw the blockage and rodded out massive amounts of roots. SO much better than the other company I had out in November to install (badly and at an angle) a clean out pipe and rod. They were polite, friendly and a explained everything very clearly. Sumps are now sending water to the ditch again instead of recycling in the pit. I am much relieved. Highly recommended.

Missed appointments. Not willing to be flexible with customers on appt times. Received call days after appointment had been missed. Doesnt return calls or answer phone during business ours. Avoid this business.

What can I say, The fine folks at Simon have been my go to for any an all plumbing related issues for years.

From installing a cleanout and rodding that main line annually, to installing new fixtures both inside and out, to the most recent service, cleaning out a drain for my washing machine, I've always been satisfied.

Ill look forward to having them respond promptly, efficiently and with reasonable pricing after a full explanation of the service required.

The father, and Todd and Josh, also the young lady who does customer service, and especially Wayne, the drain fixer extraordinaire, have us as  customers for life.

Great work folks.

They were able to set my toilet the same day I called, which was awesome. And he did a good job, explained the problem, answered questions, executed the job quickly. The price seems high to set a toilet, but based on other reviews, I went with them since they were so convenient and I'm hoping that's the going rate. Kind of wish they wore shoe covers inside since it was rainy outside, but it is what it is.

Major downside is they had to write down my card information, and that makes me really uncomfortable. I saw this in a previous review, but I figured that if the system was just down that day, the chances I would have that issue would be low. Guess not.

I was in a bind regarding a plumbing issue on Jun 4th, they came out looked at job and said we can't service you until Jun 8th that they were very busy. They came out, they were on time and friendly. It was a small job and they were done in less than an hour. They did quote me prior to the job with an allowed time of 2hrs. The job was done in less than an hour. Materials were $45.00 and Labor was $195.00. I thought that was high, $195.00 for an hour. I would shop around next time for better price and quicker service.

There was a sewer gas smell that filled the house every time water was run for any length of time. Walsh & Son responded quickly and set up a very convenient day and time to repair the cracked sewer pipe.
They arrived on time and got to work immediately. They took care of digging the hole in my basement, replacing the pipe, filling the hole, cementing the floor, and cleaning up the area within a few short hours. I LOVE not having to deal with the sewer smell anymore.
I wouldn't hesitate to call them in the future or refer them to anyone who needs sewer experts.

I don't like bog box stores. Roaming the aisles for hours trying to find the one employee that is both present and in possession of a brain. I like finding the good supply houses and dealing with them. My last job was a replacement of an ejector pump at my dad's house. Not a rosey job by any stretch of the imagination, but it's the sort of thing that is nice when you get it done. When I walked into Harlem Plumbing I made it clear. I don't want lousy china crap that breaks in three days. The folks behind the counter knew precisely what I was talking about. They did a fantastic job. I had my list, I knew what I needed, I knew the calculations, head loss, applicable codes....but they were ready to help and had some great advice and stories. In modern times, the word expert is now exclusively used to describe talking idiots on TV, I must say that the folks at harlem plumbing are master tradesmen (and women?). They also have a good throughflow of top notch local plumbers. There was nothing intimidating or condescending about the interaction. the folks were prompt, professional, friendly. Where the smart one at the big box store watches a 30 minute youtube video as training, these folks had been in the trade all of their lives. I left absolutely certain that I had the right stuff and the job would be done right. I can't say that for the happy, shiny, lucky, golden store brands at the big box stores. That experience is more along the lines of god, I hope this crap works. Harlem Plumbing is a solid local supply house with great people. I can't say it enough. Rock on Harlem Plumbing! Please don't stop or sell out to the corporate pukes. The service you provide is much needed and appreciated.

He was responsive but was going back and forth with the numbers. We didn't have a good experience with this business. We paid for the service to show up but didn't use him for further repair. I would highly suggest to go with other plumber.

Love these guys! Prompt, clean, and really know their stuff. He indulged all of my questions, and gave some great advice.

Horrible customer service.  I was in need of assistance, looking for a part for my toilet and was not assisted in a friendly manner.  I was the only woman in line and was treated in a demeaning manner, even the other men waiting for assistance laughed at the customer service rep assisting me, guess if you are a woman, in a man's plumbing world you are considered a joke.  I would never recommend this store to anyone!
