Best Plumbing Services in Chicago, IL

We had a reoccurring issue with sewage leaking from our drain stack onto the sidewalk near our house. Previously, two different plumbers worked on the problem--the first at a very hefty sum. Jeff of Apex, came out to give us estimate. After thoroughly inspecting the problem, answering my numerous questions and giving me a logical explanation of the problem--I decided Jeff was the guy for the job! He located the root of the problem to a drain pipe in the basement. He rodded it and replaced its outdated seal. I really must highlight my appreciation for Jeff's patience in answering my questions, and educating me about the problem while maintaining his professionalism. If necessary, I'll definitely use Apex again!

I have used Vanguard for 2 different projects over the past few years. Both times the work has been excellent. They responded to my inquiries quickly and were right on time for both appointments. The work was reasonably priced and performed expertly. The plumbers were friendly and, as the second job was done during the pandemic, I was pleased with their COVID procedures. I highly recommend Vanguard.

Victor (owner of Plumbing 123) was great!

My mom's house had a clogged drain line from the bathroom but the rest of the house's drains worked. I called several plumbers, described the situation,  and Victor gave me an estimate that was fair, stating I was 4th in line for the day should I accept.  I did accept.

He came before his estimated time and texted me to ask if that was OK.

He ran a camera up the drain line and showed me the roots that were causing the clog. He then cleared the clog with the machine that cuts the inside of the pipe clear and showed me the result by running the camera up the drain line again. My mom's clogged drain line problems were solved.

But Victor went above and beyond: He ran the camera towards the city's sewer line under the street (which had been draining well all along). He showed me a place where the main drain line had separated and one pipe had settled downward with respect to another, causing a narrowing of the sewer line. He suggested the city may own this part of the sewer line and that they need to fix it (rather than my mom having to hire a plumber).

I've kept Victor's number so I can call him next time my mom has a plumbing problem.

Have had Fixer.com at my place three times and each time I had a great experience. Matthew, Katie and John F. All did a great job. They all worked efficiently and were knowledgeable. They only charge for when work is being done, not for set up, examination or clean-up.  

Can't beat their rates at $80 an hour.

I have a sewer drainage issue and Drain Works Plumbing was very responsive and accommodating at short notice. They were able to rod and open the main sewer line. The workers were very informative and knowledgeable. I was impress with their service.

All Rooter was fast and responsive. They were able to come the same day I requested an appointment. They unclogged my kitchen sink no problem and left it cleaner than how they found it! They were extremely accommodating and helpful. Highly recommend.

Very honest plumber. He came over and we just needed something tightened and he charged us nothing. This is the second time we've called him and we find him to be a very fair and honest person.

Used this company again. We called Friday night and someone was able to come out Saturday morning. Highly recommend.

Plumbers came to my place to check the issue and left with a promise to call back to make recommendations. Unfortunately the call back never happened. I tried calling back a few times but never got a response. Unfortunately I can't recommend them.

These guys went above and beyond. I bought a new unit in my building and there were a few items I'd planned (fixture changes, sconces, outlet tests) and a few I didn't (2 broken breakers, and a few other complications). Jose was professional, polite, and very helpful. I knew just enough electrical to get part way on some of the projects then got stuck. He made above and beyond trips for parts on short notice and was very easy to work with, both him and his assistance for the heavy lifting. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again, and in case you need them to be insured for your homeowners association, they quickly provided this as well.

Captain Rooter Emergency Plumbers responded and resolved the small gas leaks in basement promptly and efficiently. Very pleased w the attitude and professionalism of Gabe, the service tech, who drove all the way from Chicago. Nicor confirmed that the gas leaks were resolved & turned gas back on. While the total cost was expensive, at least i have peace of mind that I know there are no small gas leaks which probably existed for who knows how long? Hopefully this equates into savings on my gas bill!

We used Arco when we had an issue in our upstairs shower that was leaking into the ceiling downstairs.  Jason came out and he was very professional and upfront with what needed to be done.  In addition to the shower, Jason was able to fix a leaky shower head in the basement as well as a leaky outdoor faucet.  I will be using Arco again if necessary and I would highly recommend them for their honesty and affordability.

Ally Handyman came to install an attic door. He did not install in the place I asked. Unfortunately I paid before the work was performed. The door opened directly into piping and could not be used. When I called back to have the issue of a nonfunctional door addressed my calls and voicemails were entirely ignored. I would hate for anyone else to experience the same problem of wasted money.

My 21 year old hot water heater died and after some research I reached out to Rooter Plumbing.  Alex (the owner) responded immediately and 2 days later (he actually offered to come the next day but i was out of town) he was at my house with the new heater.  Arrived on time and worked efficiently and left the place spotless.  I had a few questions and reached out to Alex again and he was so responsive!  Great service, friendly and most importantly, trustworthy.  I will definitely be using them again!

Thank you Mike and Ed!

Ejector pump was running more frequently and seemed like ground water was coming in. They quickly went over to the main sump pump which they realized had failed causing the water to look for another way out.

These guys are pros and the company was super quick to respond. What else can you ask for in a plumbing service?

Thanks.

We have a boiler system to heat our water and the first floor of our home. We contacted them over the weekend to fix a gas leak that was found by our gas company on the boiler. After multiple texts and reaching out for more communication, they got the part and replaced it after 36-48 hours. They left and my husband presumed everything was working. When the water wasn't hot and the heater was still not working another 36 hours later they came back again, didn't even take off the door of the boiler to see what I was explaining the problem was (the burner was not turning on) and didn't believe me when I explained how our system worked. I paid 500 dollars for a 55 dollar part and a boiler left without working. Would never recommend. Shared this with the people who recommended them and they'll also stop using them. Honesty instead of charging us money for a system they didn't get would've been better.

Goode Plumbing took care of an issue with my shower so quickly. I've been trying to get someone there for the past 6 months and finally was referred to them, thank goodness! They set up the appointment with my tenants and informed me of everything before, to get approval and payment, and then contacted me right away when they were finished.

Do not believe the fake good reviews. Walter is a THEIF and a COWARD. He caused severe damage to my property while excavating to install drain tiles. A new foundation costing me $50,000 had to be poured because of his negligence. Walter is NOT LICENSED.. Walter is NOT INSURED.. Walter is NOT BONDED. Do NOT give him any Money!!
