Best Businesses in Illinois

The plumbers came right out and installed a new toilet. When we had problems a few days later, (not their fault) they came right back and fixed it for no charge. Great service! Would recommend to anyone.

Fantastic people and work. Had a drain installed into my basement floor. Responded quick, quick appraisal, quick appointment, worked quick, very friendly, great pricing. Felt like a person and not just a dollar sign.

Paul came recommended by a trusted friend. When you call Paul the Plumber, you get Paul the Plumber. No lackeys no BS. Our water heater failed. He was there the next morning with a very high quality American Made unit. The job was left near and clean. He even arranged a pick up of the old WH. Paul will be the only plumber in my phone.

I needed to satisfy the village code of Elmwood Park because I sold my house. I already had a membership with Larry's Plumbing, so I called for their approximate rates.  When I was told the cost would be around $800 (with the member 20% discount, mind you) at the minimum, I immediately started asking around.  Our handyman told us to call Forte Plumbing.  They're local, have a great relationship with the surrounding villages, and they couldn't be nicer people to deal with.  Best of all, they told me they could do the work for $250! When they came to do the work, it took them 4 hours.  STILL only charged me $250, even though it was certainly more work than expected.  I would have happily paid more.  I wish Forte serviced the far western suburbs -- when you find a good plumber, you should never let them go!  Thank you Carmen and Michael!

Get 2nd and 3rd opinions for your issue!  Exaggerated several of my issues and did not fix all of my problems.  I still have major issues!  They fixed the easy stuff at a high price.

Dominick specializes in sump pumps, backup systems and ejector pumps. He is a professional who will get the job done. Do not hesitate to contact him for your sump pump needs!!

Pete just finished our bathroom remodel and had to relocate the drain along with moving water lines. He did a phenomenal job and I would highly recommend him to anyone else. Thanks again Pete! Hopefully my wife doesn't have any more projects for you

We have been using Ray as our plumber for 15 years. He's gotten us through some nasty plumbing problems. He's quick to respond to calls. His work is dependable. His prices are reasonable. But today, he earned a permanent place in my heart: he hooked up an icemaker for me!! I love ice in my drinks and hate making it in ice trays. Now, I won't have to thanks to Ray.

I had a problem that I was unable to figure out around sitting water in my vent ducts. Ben came on time and spent an hour diagnosing the issue. After great lengths to determine a cause; The issue was determined that it was not a plumbing issue but rather HVAC or siding/concrete foundation leak. The fact that he spent helping and then offering suggestions indicates to be that expertise they have if I had the issue. I plan to use them going forward

I called them again as I noticed the Polar Vortex decided to freeze my pipe.  Luckily I had the water drained from the pipes before leaving on vacation to avoid potential issues upon returning.  In a matter of minutes, there was someone over to check and confirm it was a frozen pipe from the outside and that they can have someone over later in the evening with proper tools to fix it; and that in the meantime suggesting I try something in case it fixes it before they can come.  

They arrived earlier than I was expecting because of issues caused by severe weather.  Fixed it in a matter of minutes.  As friendly and professional as always and this is why I keep calling them anytime something happens.  I have their number saved and have passed it along to friends and neighbors as well.

I have been using Mark for 2 years now. I should have written a review by now. Mark is old school plumbing and he is not a fancy guy with a fancy truck with a $40,000 truck with a $2000 logo painted on the side. Needless to say you pay for his services and not his bills that he has incurred.
Mark is fair, courteous, and fast. He will tell you what you need done quickly without trying to charge you by the minute.

If you have plumbing issues call MD.

Unfortunately we needed some pipes to be rodded. Fortunately we found this company. We have had them out on 3 seperate occasions for different issues.

Each time we had a different guy but all were equally polite, professional and got the job done quickly. They are the most reasonably priced company in our area and surrounding area. They show up on time everytime.

We highly recommend Courtesy Plumbing for those unfortunate moments when you need plumbing repair. Best prices and customer service around.

Had water backup into the basement and needed a plumber quickly.  Looked online for a good plumber as I don't have a regular plumber.  Saw reviews for Greg, the sewer guy, quick response, fixed the problem and was a nice person to deal with so that's who I chose to call.  He did return my call immediately, gave me a two hour arrival time, he immediately identified the problem and fixed it.  The outside catch basin needed rodding out. He even rinsed down the basement.  Would call him again and highly recommend him.

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.

Very responsive, prompt, on time and did a neat job of piping up shower valve and diverter.

They send what is supposedly a licensed union plumber who should know what he's doing.  He installs a new hot water heater and vents it only to the chimney, not to the liner in the chimney.  That's mistake #1.  Plus the flue slope is incorrect and can lead to gases not exiting properly (mistake #2).  I'll throw both these into Mistake #3:  He told me he cannot see well. (Thanks for sendinig over a plumber with vision issues, that instills confidence!). And, rather than putting his tools down on the painted basement floor, he drops them, which left a number of scratch marks on the floor.  Will never call them again. Their hold music should be Send in the Clowns.

Horrible experience and will give zero star will possible. The rep came in and told us that we need to replace this and replace that and that our machine is so outdated (only 7 years old) and the city will go around and start writing tickets on the old machine the machines are way too old. Quoted us for a $6,000 replacement.

Guess what, our neighbor happened to work for another AC company, came in and fixed everything for under $250 (with their company, not a personal favor). Liars and thieves for this Four Season company.

Poor parts, poor workmanship and high cost.  One-star review is fitting.

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.
