Best Plumbing Services in Chicago, IL

I feel like this place ripped me off.  I had them come out to fix a leaky faucet and toilet not filling up.  The first guy took HOURS and said he couldn't replace the cartridges for my faucet so I would have to get a new faucet.  He did fix the toilet quickly.  I paid $288.  Then the next weekend a new plumber from the same company came out and fixed my original faucet in 20 minutes but I had to pay an additional $150 service fee.  $150 for 20 minutes when I  had already paid $288 the last time?!  I really feel taken advantage of.  If the first guy knew what he was doing with the faucet I would have saved a lot of money and time.  Then as he was leaving he said call us again!  Ha!  Sending out people who don't know what they are doing and making the customer pay for a plumbers lack of knowledge is not going to get you repeat business!

Outstanding. I had a problem with my water heater and they walked me through all the steps to troubleshooting and resolve without an expense house call. Finding a decent plumber is so hit and miss, so I will definitely use them going forward

Thank you so much Freddy! For taking care of the stinky messy basement (toilet). Freddy was very knowledgeable, polite and most of all a pet friendly guy! I would not hesitate to recommend your plumbing firm to friends and family. Keep up the good work!

Our toilet flooded in the middle of the night on a Sunday. I didn't want to risk serious water damage, so I did a quick search & found fast response from Discount Plumbing. I requested a quote on yelp and they responded within minutes & they said a technician can come out & gives me a FREE quote with no obligation. They arrived in minutes and my toilet soon was able to flushing like it was brand new! I appreciate them walking in with booties and walking me through the whole process & answering my questions. Definitely took the customer service to another level with that. Plus, the 10% coupon helped..

Thank you
Discount Plumbing

Nice guy and great plumber. Seriously folks, if you're looking for a reliable and fair plumber - I highly recommend him. Thanks Scotty!

I will never call another plumbing company again.
Joey was great. He answered all my questions, explained what he was doing and why, and offered different options for how to proceed based on my budget.
He stayed on the job until 10:15pm to make sure it was completely done and working properly.

5 Stars aren't enough stars to award these guys.  Thomas & David came out to inspect and hydrojet our sewage line from our house to the street in Chicago.  We had a TOTAL backup, and sewer water had overflowed into our garden apartment where we take care of a disabled woman.  We were quoted a very fair & competitive price for hydrojetting the line.  Thomas and David realized that our drain and our property were NOT the problem, instead, Thomas clearly showed us how it was a problem with the city's (Chicago) sewer system alone.  He showed us how the sewer elevation had risen due to blockages in multiple areas along the City's streets and alleys.  Thomas said, that sewer line water level is 6-7 feet above normal and knew right away that this was an emergency and I had better start calling the city and my alderman immediately.  In fact, Thomas got on the horn and told the city that we have a serious problem and that crews would need to be dispatched right away.  Then he looked at me and sayed keep calling, don't stop calling ... And that's what I did, I literally called again within 5 minutes, and kept calling to report the severity of the situation to the city and alderman. Thomas pointed out that our flooding was occurring during a period of NO RAIN, and rain was on the way the following night.  So because of Thomas' knowledge 3 city crews were sent out the next morning and they worked all day to drain the entire line 7 feet down, they popped every manhole for two blocks down the line and also found a caved-in manhole who's bricks had fallen and blocked the line.  They also sucked out hundreds of pounds of grease the likes of which the crews said they had never seen.  So what I'm saying is ... that if Thomas and David didn't have the professional technical smarts to ascertain this entire situation we would have had 1 1/2 feet of fecal sewage water in our garden apartment when the rain came and our disabled tenant would have had to be relocated.  Thomas literally saved our garden apartment and the security of our very wonderful tenant, and saved many other lower level garden apartments along the line by knowing his craft and advising me to take immediate action with the city.  I would recommend Thomas and Chicago Sewer And Drain to anyone ... a hundred times over.  Not just skillful, but exceedingly smart and caring.  Bravo Chicago Sewer and Drain Professionals.

Brian and Chris are just great! They are courteous, professional and most of all honest. Fixed my issue for a reasonable price. I would recommend this company to anyone. They will not BS you and charge you exorbitant prices like John Baethke who diagnosed and priced a problem without looking at anything and overcharges as well.

Easy to work with, fast, professional, just incredible. We've gone through many plumbing services and I think we finally found our guys. Highest possible recommendation!

Kevin is a amazing.  He's helped us a few times with plumbing tragedies.  When we first called him to figure out why our washing machine wasn't draining he fixed the problem and rerouted the mess of pipes under our sink in a more efficient way.  He's done some other work for us, always friendly, and always reasonably priced.  He responds quickly and always tries to work us into his schedule whenever we have an emergency.  He's a great find.

Very professional and reliable on the job they didn't in my house. I will definitely work with them again.

Chaun from Green Tech was great to work with.  He came over the first time expecting to do a minor service, but as we both slowly figured out, I needed more extensive work than expected.  He was very professional and understanding.  He came over the next time with the correct equipment and went above and beyond in fixing unrelated issues that would have caused major problems down the line.
And still, after that we had a leak due to a product deficiency (not an issue he was involved with) and came back just to basically tighten up everything and stopped the leak.
Cannot recommend Green Tech more highly.

They were WONDERFUL! Super communicative over Yelp and the phone; fixed our kitchen sink drain VERY quickly after another company came and failed (and tried to get me to do all sorts of extra other work); were super neat, conscientious, and careful; and were lovely to work with. We're asking them to do other work for us, too. As they walked around looking at our house to help do the estimates, they advised us on different approaches to save money and for better effect. Really loved this company.

Mike and Adam were awesome. I called at 8am because my water heater wasn't working. They were out within an hour, but the water heater was past the point of repair. They removed the old unit and installed a new unit the same day. I was back up and running by 2pm... Amazing service!

Darrell and his team were great! Excellent work, accurate quote, and very communicative. Also loved the guy Darrell recommended, Mario, to come do the drywall patch up afterwards. Matched the paint perfectly--everything looks flawless. They even came out the day of the big snowstorm so that we could stay on our moving timeline. Price was very reasonable. We will be calling Sims and Sons for all future projects!

I needed a plumber at short notice. I did Yelp reviews and I found ABV. We worked out a time for us to meet. Chris was prompt and met me at the front door. He put on booties to keep the floor clean and started looking.  He found the problem quickly, went out for a part, was back soon. He finished up installation (including being nice about a propane torch smell) and cleaned up well. Price was good. We're going to start using him more for our work at home.

Needed a ball valve installed on the water main in my basement. Service was fast and well done. Would use CJ plumbing again.

Very good will recommend him anytime I need a plumbing service
Price as stated Easy to contact

Our water heater stopped working about two weeks ago.  Since that time, we've tried several of the different large plumbing services who were providing large estimates without even looking at my issues.  For me, the very last straw was when I called one of the services I used at the very start of my issues.  The new technician explained to me that the technician that the firm sent out the first time didn't do the work correctly but he (from the same exact company) would fix me right up for an additional $4,000.

It was at this point that I knew I needed to try a very different approach.  I opened Yelp and placed a query for a plumber.  Juan from A&Y plumbing and Sewer Services responded to my query.  Let me just say that if you are a homeowner in need for quality work by someone who not only explains to you what needs to be done but also treats you with respect - this is the  company for you.  I have noticed in previous projects at my home that some of this large plumbing services assume that if you are calling them, you are so desperate to end your problem you will pay any ridiculous cost.  I've owned my home over twenty years.  I have at least a couple of instances where I knew I overpaid for subpar work and I was determined that I would be treated fairly in the effort.  With Juan I felt in my gut that he would be trust worthy because he started out with let me see if this can be fixed and if not, we can discuss other options.  This was In stark contrast to the other service where the gentleman immediately told me, this isn't something you repair, it is something you replace!.  He hadn't even come to my home yet.

In short, Juan was able to fix it.  He then walked me through the process he followed to trouble shoot the issue and correct the problem.  I have an advanced degree in information technology so root cause analysis is something I truly appreciate!  It doesn't mean i expected to walk away knowing how to troubleshoot this issue myself but for someone to just give me the respect of fully explaining what was happening and why we needed to fix/replace things.

For me, during a time when I felt like other services were treating me horribly - it was absolutely refreshing to be treated with kindness and respect. The cherry on the cake was that Juan's cost was reasonable and his work was awesome!  This was one of those times where I very gladly paid his fee and I am already referring him to my friends and family.   This is company is definitely a keeper for me!!

Noel was responsive, competent and quick.  Fixed a toilet with a flush valve that had deteriorated over the years.  I'd have no hesitation calling Five next time.
