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.

We hired Kevin and his team to handle some extensive drywall patching throughout our house. The crew was very professional and prompt, finishing the project on schedule and with the quality work that we expected. One of the best things is that they did an outstanding job cleaning up all of the dust and debris from the drywalling, which is not something that all contractors take the time to do. It's nice to work with a reliable company that offers a wide range of services, and we are planning to hire Welter again for future jobs. I would recommend Welter for any type of home repair.

Thanks Alan for your quick assessment of our plumbing issue.  And then staying a bit longer to fix an additional issue.  Your expertise and service had me smiling the rest of the day!

Junior from InSink was able to join my home inspection. He was professional, thorough, and courteous. I could be happier with the service!

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.

We had kind of an emergency with the sudden onset of a plugged sewer line. Probably my fault for not taking care of regular maintenance but, regardless, I called and they were able to send someone within a half hour. The line hadn't been rodded for several years but they were able to get the line open and flowing. Not an easy job but done as quickly and efficiently as possible.  Needless to say, I was expecting the worst when the bill was totaled but discovered it was reasonable, especially given the short notice on the job.

I came across DreamHouse plumbing through a common friend. And then we talked to Audrey from DHP team and he was always very prompt and quick in action when it comes to knowing the problem to fix whether it be Undersink ,pipe line  and outdoor valve issues. I highly recommend Audrey and his team at DHP for any of your plumbing services.

The whole team was professional and friendly. They listened to my problems in detail and helped explain some old-house oddities. Quality work and great service, will be having them quote a large project. My new go-to neighborhood plumber!

I want the world to know that the guys at Pittman Plumbing and Sewer are my heroes.

I discovered a large puddle of water in my yard. Initially, i thought it was a leak from the lawn sprinkler system.  We dug up the area and found it was coming from a break in the sewer.

Immediately, i called several companies to get estimates for repair.  I most say, because this was an emergency repair, time for a fix was crucial. The trades men called were all known to me, so I was more trusting of their ability and the quotes than if they had been unknown.  

Thank God that I followed my cardinal rule of getting three quotes.  I would say, in emergencies it is MOST important because you are most vulnerable to pay any price quoted.  Able Sewers was the largest paniic seller with a price gouging total that they were UNWILLING ti negotiate.  

Thank God for Pittman Plumbing. They responded quickly, gave me their NON PANIC price and made the repair, upgraded my sewer service, cleaned up the area, leaving the ground smooth and undisturbed.

PITTMAN PLUMBERS AND SEWER are defitely my heroes.  Their price and

I would like to take a moment and thank this company. I have a grease trap that backed up. It was full of grease. I had a company come out(not these guys) and remove the grease. They drain was not going down. He charged me $140 to tell me he recommends using a mechanic snake after 15 minutes..
That's done so long story short Simon plumbing came out and actually spent about a hour and snaked out my line for me. They charged a great price and he did it in the rain. It's pouring outside today. I couldn't be happier.
Good job guys.

Great experience working with All Affordable Plumbing! Juan was our plumber/technician that performed the work - he was early to arrive, professional & courteous, and did a thorough job with the work!

Our kitchen sink was gurgling and had a foul smell any time we'd run water or the dishwasher. Juan was able to use a rooter to clean out the pipes and no more smell or gurgling - problem solved! Very pleased with the service and would highly recommend using All Affordable Plumbing to anyone that is in need of plumbing services!

Everyone I've dealt with at this company (Ann, Pat and Tommy), was friendly and incredibly helpful.

We had an issue with sewage coming back up in our laundry room on Christmas. I called the day after and they were able to get out the same day and help resolve the problem. They were even willing to help move a 60+ year old freezer that was in the way of the main stack they needed to rod out.

There was hardly no clean up that needed to be done, the pricing was very fair and Pat explained everything he did. I would definitely recommend Kennedy to anyone that has plumbing needs and will definitely use them again should anything else pop up.

Walsh and Son Sewer are the best. I received excellent service from them. I thought their price was fair and reasonable. I am renovating my basement. They installed new plumbing in my basement for a bathroom and laundry room. I also had them change my galvanized water pipes to copper. John Walsh told me it would take 7 to 10 days and they finished in
8 days.

They set up the inspection and we're present when the Chicago inspector arrived. The plumbing passed inspection the first time.

The guys working for Walsh and Son were friendly and very thorough. They did more than I anticipated. Kudos to Walsh and Son Sewer.

Over priced and items do not have prices on shelf. Never fully in stock of all supplies. Unprofessional. And lastly the worst part is no money back if you need a refund. Only store credit which sucks cause now you have to buy more stuff from them if you don't want to. So you have to know what your buying the first time if not your out of money. Then given a sob story that the other day they tried a refund and it took them 4hrs to do it which is a lie or they are super outdated on their cash register/payment structure. Never again will I shop here. Needs new management and prices to be fair. And more knowledgable associates. BBB has been informed aswell.

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.

Thiesse plumbing is two blocks away from my house.  Since moving in three years ago I have had a few plumbing issues and since Thiesse is so close to my house and I pass by their office frequently, their name comes to mind first when I have had these issues.  I'm writing this review today because I have never successfully received any services from them and I think that says a lot about their level of customer service.  

So, as a disclaimer, I cannot talk about how good or bad their services are, or how reasonable or unreasonable their prices are.  All I can say is that it is, as far as I can tell, impossible to get them to come to my house in the first place.

Incident #1 - my sewage pipe was leaking into my kitchen through the ceiling.  The toilet would not flush.  I have a one bathroom house, so this is my only toilet.  I called on a Monday and they told me no one could even come look at it until Friday.  So I said no  thank you because I can't really go all week without a working bathroom.  

Incident #2 (a few weeks later) - we got the toilet working again temporarily, but we needed a larger fix to repair the underlying issue. Part of the sewage pipe needed to be replaced and I had a plumber to fix it but I wanted to get another quote to be sure I wasn't getting ripped off.  I called and asked for a plumber to come give me an estimate.  I was told a plumber would call me back to schedule.  I never heard back from them, so I went ahead with the repair with someone else.

Incident #3 (two weeks ago) - we have had some basement flooding issues and are looking to install a sump pump or put in some other basement flood prevention.  I called and explained what I was looking for.  The woman who answered said that she would have a plumber call me to schedule.  I mentioned that my husband and I both work full time and we would need the appointment to be either in the evening after 5:00 or on a weekend.  She said that the plumbers might be able to accommodate my request and she would have them call me.  It has been two weeks and they have never even attempted to contact me.  

I feel that overall I have given Theisse plenty of opportunities to redeem themselves and they just keep proving to me over and over that they really don't want my business.  So instead of using the plumber who is two blocks away, I will be using the plumber from 10 miles away who answers his phone on the first call, listens to my problem and offers suggestions, and then offers to come out to my house after 6:00pm.

My family has a couple of old brick buildings , we been doing business with South Chicago  Plumbing , since 1976. Great knowledge, very friendly, and most of all a great inventory of parts and supply for older buildings . They have the parts and supply that you cannot find any where around Chicago.  They recommend other shops if they don't have the parts. Now that's true business !!!
