Best Plumbing Services in Chicago, IL

One of my tenants had an issue with flushing their toilet because it black flowed so I searched and contacted Zoom Drain. Pam, who was the dispatcher for the Chicago location, told me that the soonest she could have a tech come out would be tomorrow afternoon. After explaining to her that my tenants were elderly  she told me that she would contact the sister company which was located in Glenview.  Pam called me later on to tell me that she was able to find 2 techs from the Glenview based location. I got a text from Zoom Drain saying that their tech would arrive within 30 minutes.  Christian and Antonio arrived and were both wearing face masks due to covid. They were able to assess the problem with the toilet which was a single clog issue and it was due to the old pipe drain and a flushable wipe. Both Christian and Antonio suggested that new toilet bowl would be more efficient because the old toilet didn't have enough power in the flush in addition to it using alot of water. They also explained what I expect to see whenever I decided to get some work done on the outside drain. All I can say is that Pam, Christian and Antonio were all professional. I was satisfied and I sincerely appreciated their help. I will be looking forward to using the services of Zoom Drain in the future.

We called on a Sunday night, the owner returned our call within a few minutes and tried to talk us through the repair on our own.  When our rookie work didn't hold, they came out and got us all fixed up the same day.  The estimate was accurate, the work was fast, and they were great to work with.  Very satisfied, would use again.

First, Paul answered his phone on the first ring at 6:30PM.  Then he gave me a firm quote for replacing 2 water heaters.  The price was competitive, a little more than my neighbor paid a handyman to do it; but Paul is a real plumber.  Third, Paul re-arranged his schedule because one of my water heaters was already leaking all over the floor.  He arrived on time at 8:45AM the next morning, started draining my existing units, and the went to another appointment.

I had to leave for the airport at 2P.  He returned at 10:30AM with the new water heaters that were an EXACT match, size-wise, to the old ones.  So there wasn't any re-piping to have to pay for.  

All of the work was done by the promised noon time.  Paul's work was excellent.  I plan on using him for the next plumbing need I have.

Thank you Paul!

I have used Forte for several issues at my house and they never disappoint.  Everything is installed as promised, on schedule, and for very reasonable rates.  They plumbed our kitchen, fix a drain issue, and fixed our boozie valve that I had given up hope on long ago.  We have had several plumbers, as well as Carmen and Robert, and no matter who we get they know their stuff.  I will be happy to recommend them to all of my family and friends and know that they are in great hands.

The work was done quickly and professionally, and with short notice. There was an issue that I brought up with the price, and this was completely resolved by costumer service.  I appreciate that they care enough to reach out to customers and fully resolve issues.

Pete was wonderful! Called him about a dishwasher installation before the holidays and he talked me through how to do it myself and what part I needed. He spent at least 30 minutes on the phone with me, responded to my texts with questions and followed up offering to stop by in the evening in case I needed help. He could not have been more helpful or generous with his time and knowledge. Dishwasher was up and running within 2 hours!

I will be using Burr Oak Plumbing exclusively from now on because of Pete!

Positive experience, was able to call Ray during an emergency at 11pm (I live in Mokena) he came right out fixed the problem. Very nice and didn't charge a fortune. Will  definitely  use again.

We had a technician from Advantage Plumbing come to our home yesterday to diagnose an issue with our master bathroom toilet (as well as to check on two other plumbing issues in our home while he was here).  The tech was Harry Potts and he was very knowledgeable and respectful.  He was able to quickly and specifically assess and address the issues. I would definitely call Advantage Plumbing in the future (if and) when another problem arises.

Also the women who answered the call line (Cynthia -and on a later call- possibly Kim) were very congenial and professional.  I had called 2 other plumbing companies prior to contacting Advantage Plumbing.  Advantage was the first to not only respond to my call but to commit to sending out a tech. within a few hours.  Definitely a 5-Star company and team!

Very good service. We had a leaking toilet. They came out and fixed it. Very well priced. I will continue to work with them in the future. The guy who came out was very professional.

Mark was fast to respond and efficient at his job.  I just needed a simple spout change and he was able to fit me in ASAP.  Will definitely call him again for all of our plumbing needs!

We are so excited to have found our favorite company for our plumbing needs. They are responsive, honest and do great work!

Paid him $175 to clean sewer drain but they were still running slow after he was done.

They were great! I had a gas leak and needed a plumber to fix right away to turn my gas back on. They even gave me an estimate and fixed my pipes in 1 morning. The work was great quality as well.

I recently purchased a slide in stove for my kitchen remodel. It wouldn't slide all the way in because the gas line was in the way. Derek from RMO came out and was able to move it without any problems. The work was affordable and Derek cleaned up his work area really well. I will definitely call them back for any plumbing needs in the future!

We live in an older home built in the forties. There are few people familiar with some of the older homes in Hinsdale and the piping. We reached out to Soltwich and they were responsive, affordable and helpful. We definitely recommend their services.

Our AC went out two days ago, and it has been 85+ degrees in our house. We had an appointment scheduled for service this morning, with an arrival window of 8am-12noon. We booked two days ago and called last evening to confirm the service window for today. We asked if it was possible to request that we be earlier in that window since I needed to try to get to work asap-- they said they could not guarantee but would note the request.

At 10:20am, I called to check on progress: was clear that we were not able to get into the earlier part of the window (which we understood was not guaranteed) but needed to confirm that we were still on track for an arrival by noon. I was told the tech was assigned and was on his way to our house: the tech had been asked by dispatch to call me to provide an update. I did not receive.

At noon, nobody had showed up so I called again: was told that the tech had been assigned and was on his way--same response I received more than an hour and a half before.  Was told again that the dispatcher had instructed the tech to call me immediately to provide an update. It has been 50 minutes and I have received no update.

I have taken a half day off of work and have been told multiple times that someone was on their way/would call me. Service window was completely missed with no explanation or apparent sense of urgency to do anything to resolve.

I have spent the last 30 minutes calling other places to see if anyone can come out to us today, before the 95+ degree day tomorrow-- we are on some waitlists for a same day/express service that will costs us an additional $100 for the rush call, and I will have to stay home to wait on standby for these other folks.

For all of the reasons above, I very strongly encourage you to use a different provider.

Please beware they will charge you a arm and two legs!!!  My husband found Ed the Plumber information in our  church bulletin and expected them to be trustworthy, honest and resonable or simply industry service rate  ( which does not mean cheap), but no they are absolutely the worst wanted to  replace a toliet, they quoted me over 1,750.00!!   I asked what type of  toliet costs that much... he said a Gerber so I wanted to research it  I asked for a model number and was told I DON'T KNOW, the most expensive one I found was 389.99 so are they charging 1300.00 to install, hypothetically even if the toliet costed 750.00 are they charging 1000.00 to install??  Then he said if you purchase the toliet we will install for approximately 700.00!!! I also was going to get my tub caulked since they would already be here they quoted 385.00 for just around the tub!!! This company is the absolute worst type of ripoffs ever, they prey on parishioners seeing  their advertisement in the church bulletin and believe they are contacting a honest business, but the truth is Ed the Plumber is   just using a cheap form of advertisement with a very large potential customer base with a lot of word of mouth. I really wish I could give them a  -0 for a rating!!!

Where to even begin.....

We hired Tim Shey, the owner, to do some plumbing work. Initially he came off as being a normal tradesmen... His bedside manor was a little abrasive but not so bad that I didn't think to not use him.

Well, I wish I would have cut ties the moment I picked up on that abrasiveness b/c my experience with him turned out to be an absolute nightmare. My experience with him was absolutely abusive and for no reason. For a long time i asked myself what I did to deserve him being so rude and disrespectful and then I finally realized that I did nothing at all to deserve the treatment bestowed upon us.

On top of the abuse, here I am, months later and i've had issue after issue with the plumbing. Very basic things were missed. Most recently, we had to hire a plumber to come out to fix one of the toilets he installed. Lord knows how long it's been leaking but I happed to notice one day that water was leaking out the back every time the toilet was flushed. It turns out that he didn't install it correctly as the top wasn't tighten to the base. The damage this has caused ....... I wonder if he did it purposely? I really do.... We also have had issues with every faucet he installed. Every single one had to be reinstalled. Additionally, one of the shower heads was leaking . That was another plumber visit. I keep going on and on with the issues but I'm sure you get the point.

This was not my personal experience but I spoke to another person who hired him who needed an additional week to pay him for his services and instead of waiting, he went to her home, pushed himself through her door and ripped out all of her plumbing so that she couldn't access any water! Who does that!

Please note that this was my personal experience with Tim. I'll never understand why I didn't just ask him to leave my condo the minute he was disrespectful.
