Best Businesses in Illinois

I highly recommend Zoom Drain. We are first time home
Owners, so didn't know much about the plumbing. Christian came out to give us an estimate to address our problem. He was very thorough and informative.  We will definitely be using Zoom Drain again for any future plumbing needs.

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.

We got Paul's number from a friend and called him with an emergency. He came out right away and notified us of his ETA. He was able to fix our problem quickly in under a half hour and we thought he charged a very fair price. I would recommend him to my friends and I would definitely use Paul again.

Great service! Came the day before Thanksgiving and saved the day. They fixed our damaged valve on the toilet tank. A customer for life. Thank you!!!

When I had water pouring from the ceiling on the first floor, under the second floor bathroom at 9:30pm on a Thursday, I read the reviews and gave these guys a call. I had Dex and his assistant at my house by 11:00pm that same night. Dex quickly diagnosed the potential problem, added a spacer to fix the toilet flange seal, and even did some minor routing of the toilet drain for me. When the problem turned out to be larger than we all anticipated that night, Dex and his crew were back the next day as promised and did a complete routing of the main stack. My toilet flushes better than it ever has. And he took the time to explain to me what they were doing and show me how they were routing the stack from both directions, bottom up and top down. Would definitely hire these guys again.

Dominik was amazing.  He was extremely responsive and got us our back up system within a day.  He also takes the time to answer questions and help you from a preventative stand point so you are prepared in case of emergency.  He will be our go to for all sump pump and ejector pump related questions and services.

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!

Same day service fixed what needed to be fixed will definitely recommend thanks again

We had an issue with water backing up in the basement. In my frantic state, I called another company first to come and clean out the line. It resulted in a temporary fix and a $14k quote.  We then called Advantage (we have worked with them before and should have called them in the first place) and Scott and Harry came out and fixed the problem with no issues. Informed us of some work we may need done in the future but nothing urgent. What a relief! From now on, if there is ever a plumbing issue, I will not hesitate to call Advantage. They are always courteous, timely and honest. I highly recommend!

We were referred to Drain & Plumbing Services for a job for one of our real estate clients. They scheduled us promptly, Yuri arrived exactly when promised. He even identified an additional connection needed (no additional cost for the extra fitting), fixed everything without hesitation. He was quick, pleasant, and helpful, and the pricing was very fair! We now have a new go-to plumbing service for our clients, and our own needs!

Do not hire MD Plumbing to install a pedestal sink.  Marc and his employees have proven themselves to be complete incompetents at this task.  His employee, Greg first attempted the installation without using a leveling tool.  This resulted in a sink basin that was obviously not level.  Greg and the other employee, Chris try to convince me that this was due to the imperfections of the sink surface.  On the second installation, Marc attempted to ensure the sink was level, but he did not remove the pedestal (that Greg caulked to the floor) and therefore failed to center the pedestal under the sink basin.  I've emailed Marc asking for a refund of this incompetent installation and he has been non-responsive.  MD Plumbing cuts corners and is deceptive.  Avoid them if you want work done well and with integrity.

Justin came out for a major leak. We had no idea where it was coming from.. He did some incredible detective work and solved the problem.. I am not sure how he did it but I was impressed. He was a gentleman and explained the solution in terms that were easy to understand.. WE will use this company again, I hope they are all like Justin.  2/4/2019

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 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.

Now I remember why I stopped using this company. Horrible service.   Called for boiler service this morning was given a 4 hour window.  Called at least another 3-4 times to follow up on the whereabouts of the technician only to be told (after the technician was more than 2 hours late) that my appointment had been cancelled.  So after waiting for over 7 hours my house is still freezing and I have no chance of getting anyone else out tonight.  Worst result possible.

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.
