Best Plumbing Services in Chicago, IL

Spoke to Pat about some noise related issues related to a new water pump.  I explained the issues to him thinking I needed to do some extensive work on our place.  On the spot, he provided me some things to check on to help diagnose the issue and some things to do before performing the extensive work. I appreciate his advice, which he was more than willing to provide, rather than just coming out, doing the work, and collecting some money from me. Thank you Pat.

We were delighted by the level of customer service we received from Fastplumbing 247. We woke up early Sunday morning to find that our water heater had broke overnight and began leaking water in our garage!!! We immediately began calling the highest rated local water heater repair companies that we could find on Yelp. However it was a Sunday morning we were doubtful that anyone would be able to respond and help us in a timely manner. But we were SO happy and surprised to discover that Mac from Fastplumbing 247 answered the phone! Mac was kind, courteous, and THOROUGH. He answered all our questions, informed us of our options and let us make our own decision about switching to a tankless water heater. And now we're smooth sailing! Thank you!

Javier did a great job unclogging a kitchen sink that we were unable to unclog ourselves despite multiple plunges and a 25 foot snake off Amazon. He replaced a cracked part of the trap for no extra charge to make sure it didn't leak in the future. He put back all the under sink items and left the place tidy. Thank you Javier!

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

I had Scott come by for a garbage disposal clog - I sent over a picture of the area, and based on that, he showed up prepared with a whole new garbage disposal for me, and installed it!! The clogged one was quite old and the trap needed replaced. He did it all, and was super quick and it was affordable, + told me things to consider in the future / other things that may need replaced / etc.

Rocket Plumbing is my go-to plumber! No job too big or small, they handle it all and are reasonably priced. I manage 12 condo associations for a property management firm and always am in need of a good plumber. Rocket Plumbing is who I call.

Dan Molina showed up on time.  We took some time to figure out where the leak was coming from. When he cut out a piece of pipe that a previous plumber put some putty on, the water was still leaking. We found that directly above that pipe was the actual leak. He fixed that one and another one near it. He did great work, and has a good attitude. A consummate professional. I would recommend him to anyone, and wouldn't hesitate to use this company again in the future.

We had a few plumbing issues that needed attention.  We called Windy City Plumbing and received a prompt response. Jose came by the house to assess the issues; and followed up with a reasonable quote. The company did a great job on our repairs.

This review is based on numerous plumbing services costing well over a thousand dollars provided on a single day. Two events occurred that never should have happened. The details:

About a week before the work date, the lead plumber (?owner) Eugene, advised me that  the main water supply in the house will have to be turned off for some of the various jobs, and he warned that when the water is turned on again it is likely to be discolored and have some sediment. A fair and thoughtful warning.  Early in the work day I reminded him of his warning and I suggested that installation of two new replacement kitchen faucets be done last, after the water main had been turned on again and after the system was flushed.  Eugene assured me that there would be no problem.  A few hours later, Eugene told me that he had installed the first kitchen faucet but it was useless because it was clogged by sediment. Yes, just incredible.  

Eugene also installed a new single handle shower faucet.  About a day later, I contacted him and complained that there is just a little warm water coming from the shower while before his repair there was an excellent flow of hot water.  He answered that it sounds like the faucet got clogged due to rust and sediments from the old plumbing.  He recommended to flush the water heater or replace it if it's over 10-12 y.o. but that he'd have to charge me his minimum fee of $150 as he's not responsible for any existing plumbing conditions. I explained that this is not an issue of diminished flow, but rather, the shower handle only turns 90 degrees, from 3 o'clock back to 12 o'clock, and it is supposed to turn 120 degrees. He answered that the shower handle is supposed to be turning from 12-3 according to the shower faucet model you got... I then sent him the installation pdf documenting that the handle was supposed to turn 120 degrees, that the amount of rotation of the handle is governed by a rotational limit stop that is adjustable, and a link to a YouTube video showing how this is done.  (The rotational limit stop (also known as rotational stop limit) is a safety feature in all modern shower faucets to prevent scalding.  It is required according to Chicago plumbing code - § 18-29-417.4.4.)  Eugene's response to this?  The problem is most likely coming from the existing plumbing.

I adjusted the rotational limit stop and fixed the problem myself.

Just sad.  Some other work (even more complicated work) was done very well.  Eugene sounds pleasant and he responds quickly.  Had just one of the above events occurred, I might have been tempted to shrug it off.  But both in one day?  The red flags don't get any bigger or brighter.

I work at a non profit art gallery in the river west area and had to finish installing an exhibit for an opening two weeks ago.  After arriving early in the AM to finish installing the show, I noticed that one of our toilets was not flushing.  In fact, it started overflowing into the bathroom.  I had too much on my plate and immediately knew I needed a plumber.  i called Sound Plumbing and talked to Kevin.  I was on the way to his next job and he said he'd be right over.  Kevin showed up less than 20 minutes later, snake in hand, and got right to work.  Within minutes, he cleared the obstruction and had the toilet working fine.  Problem solved.  Never before have i had such a professional and prompt response from someone in the trades.  I will definitely use Sound Plumbing the next time the need (and waters) arise.

Very reliable, punctual, responsive. Great quality of work.

The team from J Sewer & Water came over on short notice to unclog our kitchen sink and repair some parts that were leaking water. The results looked great.

These guys are fantastic!!!  You can believe the first line on their website regarding emergency service. It was the middle of the night when we had a downpour of water in our bathroom, when we tried calling a half a dozen 24 hr service plumbers. This plumbing service was not only able to help us,  but went far beyond our expectations. We spoke with Fred, who spent a lot of time with us on the phone.  He ensured that the main water line was shut off properly along with the hot water heater reservoir, and had us open other faucets to clear the pressure. He was competent and caring. He had us send pictures of the pipes to help us understand what we were doing. This guy was not only nice and kind but really knew plumbing.  Eric, the plumber who called early the next morning on a weekend to come out for service was wonderful. He was so down to earth and explained everything to us. He did quality work in a very timely manner. He was very  competent and knowledgable. We have been in our house for years and have used various plumbers. This one is by far the best with service and quality that we have ever had. We have found our new service of plumbers that are reliable and honest that we will use from now on. We highly recommend them!!

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.

Previously I wanted to install a ejector pump with a check valve. They quoted $5000. This was after them visiting my property and assessing the situation. On the day of the job they said that they wont be to install the pumps and charged me $4700 just for the check valve. Of course only having the check valve didn't solve the issue. And I again flew all the was from San Francisco to meet these guys to come up with a better solution. They said that installing a lift station will solve the problem. And it has been 3 weeks and i am yet to receive a quote or a start date for the work. Wasted $4700 and flight tickets. Very unprofessional behavior. Now they are not responsive at all. Never trust these guys!

Darrell and crew did an excellent job for us. Darrell is very patient and thorough in explaining what he would suggest doing for our job and making sure everything worked properly once installed. The crew wore masks, consistently put on shoe covers and/or took shoes off when entering the home and they take the time to clean up after the work.

Our toilet was backing up.  To add to that, every time we used water anywhere in the house, it caused that same toilet to back up.  It was a mess!  Hristo came by, removed the toilet, and brought in a machine to snake the pipe.  He then put in a new toilet.  Hristo was very professional, good sense of humor, and got the job done quickly.  It was a messy job and I never heard Hristo complain.  I would highly recommend Hristo's company for any plumbing job.  Thank you again, Hristo!

I called them after multiple pipes had frozen, thawed, and burst in our home. They got back to us right away and helped us the following morning. Dmitry methodically figured out each issue, checked in to explain what was happening, fixed the issue, and got us back on our feet in a day. And did so with care to preserve as much of our fixtures and bathroom as possible. An honest, responsive plumbing company we will be sure to call the next time we have an issue.

About as honest and straightforward as it gets.  Great guy and even better plumber!  He explained everything that was going to be done, was flexible around our schedule and most importantly fixed the issue we were having.  I'm glad to find a go to plumber we can depend on with fair and transparent pricing.

I have had Juan come out twice to look at 2 issues. He used his camera scope to diagnose a drain issue and also installed a new sump pump for me.

All around one of the best experiences I have had with a contractor. He was helpful in sharing his knowledge. He didn't take on work where he felt it was outside his expertise. When he did the sump pump install, it was very detailed and the price was very fair.

We have used Noel at Five Plumbing multiple times and he always does a great job.  He is an excellent plumber and is very conscientious, reliable, and fair.  Noel just replaced our sump pumps and and did a great job.  He came out right away and we are very pleased with the work he did.  Highly recommend.
