Best Businesses in Illinois

They came out, looked at everything.  Did video of the septic line.  They found the blockage, cleared the line and ran the line a second time.  Stayed to verify that there were no issues.  They ran the washer and turned on every faucet for 10 minutes to verify the issue was fixed.  

I had hired a previous company that did absolutely nothing  but take my money.  This company was very professional and told me everything they were doing the whole time.  

Job well done and they will be my first call if I have any issues in the future.   I highly recommend this company.

LOVE PPP! Shannon and Ann Marie make a great team. The first time i called, Shannon came out, same day and fixed our disposal right away. The second time I called (regarding potential frozen pipes and our washing machine now working)-- didn't even require a visit as they advised me on ways to fix it myself... which saved me the time and money of having them come out. I will ALWAYS use these guys!!

Paul replaced my home leaky hot water tank in early June 2022. He is efficient, knowledgable and direct. I recommend him.

I have used Forte Plumbing for the past 10+ years in two different houses.  I can't even remember how much we have spent with them.  Today, we had a hot water issue - leaking all over the basement and they told me they were too busy to help me.  When I said, I guess I will have to go elsewhere, the owner just hung up.  No recommendations; no accommodations.  I am someone who believes in loyalty especially for small local businesses.  How was I rewarded by Forte?  with a sorry we can't help you and a hang up.

Great service. Quick response and excellent technician. Had part in truck so resolved leak immediately.

I wish I could give Dominick ten stars! 2am and the sump pump alarm is going crazy and pouring rain outside. I frantically call two contractors I have dealt with and four other ones trying to find somebody and then happen on Sump Pump Doctor as Dominick picks up the phone and shows up within the hour. He replaced both my sump pumps (the other had not been working for quite a while), explained that the previous guy put in a Zolar and to stay away from that brand. He also put in a different check valve that doesn't sound like a mini thunderclap every time the pump discharges. And the emergency price was $750 with the pump, install, radon pipe modifications which is less than most would charge during non-emergency hours. I cannot say enough about the professionalism and responsiveness of Dominick. He also does injector pumps (which I wish I knew when mine went down last month and I got a good soaking not only from the water in the basement but from the guy who changed it). Thanks Dominick! You are a life saver!!!!

Our basement toilet and shower wouldn't stop overflowing with water, we called Peter at 8ish and he was there by 11 and got a huge clog out of our main sewer line. He was super friendly and explained everything to us and helped us get in contact with someone to restore our basement. We are going to have him help soon to fix a few more things around our house. I would highly recommend!

I called to schedule a service.  When I told him what was involved, he never called back.  I was not important enough to service.

I have used Advantage a few times for miscellaneous plumbing issues in my 100 year old house. I had some small issues (slow draining drains, low water pressure, etc.) and eventually a whole house re-pipe. I love having someone I know I can have over with one phone call and not have to think about it any further.  

I have had a few different technicians and they are always knowledgeable, courteous, and clean. I know I can trust Advantage and was able to leave the house during the re-pipe with no concerns.  I would highly recommend Advantage Plumbing to anyone looking for a plumber, whether it be a big or small job.

It was Saturday at 3:00 PM and we had an issue.  Since earlier in the morning we had been trying to get our drains unplugged using conventional methods such as drain cleaners and plungers.  Pour in the chemicals and wait for the allotted time and pour hot water... nothing was working.  Called the plumber we had used to replace our water heater and they said since it was a Saturday this would be an emergency call which would be an extra $200 to come out and look at the situation and they did not have anyone available for 4 hours.  I told them I would call back in a few minutes while I talked it over with my wife and if we thought we could make due Monday morning.  We decided it needed to be done and called back.  Luckily the phone rang and no one answered which forced me to go and find someone else.

I really liked that Drain & Plumbing Services listed their pricing schedule on their website.  I could see their pricing and that while a Saturday afternoon was not the cheapest call time, it was not an extra $200 surcharge. I called and they told me someone could be there in an hour.  They sent me a text message and much like Uber, I could see where Sergio was now and when he started to come to my house I could get an idea of when he was leaving the other call.

Are these the people that come in and take off their boots at the front door or wear coverings on their shoes? No.  Did they need some extra paper towels to sop up some water that I supplied? Yes  Was there a little communications challenge because I do not speak Ukrainian? Yes

They came on a Saturday evening, did the job we asked for a fair price and did it competently.  I was charged exactly what I was told with no surprises and he got a big tip too.

Yes, I would call them again when I need assistance with my plumbing.

I called Mark at  MD Plumbing due to my hot water heater not working. He called me back and even though he was booked up he said he would get me in. I explained the problem and he suggested what I could possibly do to fix. I called him while I was fixing and he explained in detail the steps to take. The fix worked! Mark went above and beyond what is expected and was happy to do so. I give MD plumbing 5+ stars and will use them for all my plumbing needs to come.

Shout out to our plumber Anthony; he did a great job. It only cost us $ 350. Way more affordable than ABC plumbing, which gave us a quote of $ 1350. I would recommend them to anybody will gladly call them again for another project we will be having in the future.

I called several plumbers on a Saturday due to a clogged sewer line. Few even called me back. Greg called right away and was over within a half hour. Greg couldn't have been nicer. Great job. Reasonable price.

They were available to work quickly, and did good work. David was patient and explained not only what the issues with my plumbing were, but how they were caused.

All in all I felt like they took good care of me.

Work done was replacing a pip with a root rupturing it, cleaning a grease trap, and replacing a toilet seal.

They worked with financing partners that allowed for flexible terms that worked for me.

My kitchen faucet started leaking and we have a plumber friend who had his hands full and couldn't come out that day.   So, I went on Yelp and noticed ROM's ratings were very high. Also noticed that they had put in several faucets in the past. Spoke with Mike who is a really nice guy and very professional. I knew I needed the faucet replaced, so I ran out to purchase a new one and he actually sent someone out THE SAME DAY with no extra charge! Very accommodating.

His worker John, came out and installed the faucet in under an hour. Also a nice young man who was very thorough. Job well done!

I would definitely call them again.

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.

I've spoken to 2 customer service reps and told them the same story, I was quoted 1084.00 for a flow valve that I found online for 127.00. When I asked why the difference in price, I was told it was a lifetime warranty.  Someone else may not have compared the price and would have gotten ripped off.

Found Ed the Plumber in our church's bulletin. A service call to our building was $125. We had three issues in our unit that needed to be addressed, each issue that we were quoted at $500 per each, or $1,500. This quote was going to cost me more than double the amount I donate to my church every year. I ended up paying the $125, and then had another plumber come in and complete the job for only $200 all together.

If you want to pay high prices, then go to Ed the Plumber. Otherwise I'd just move on.

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.
