Best Businesses in Illinois

Friendly, fast and very knowledgeable.  We needed a handyman to come and re-attach our stove hood that fell off the wall the previous night.  Andrew was here the next morning and fixed it better than before.  Would definitely use him again.

I was very happy with the work done by Welter Home Services.  Kevin was easy to reach and communicate with, especially given how busy they are.  Kevin and Dan put in a garbage disposal (including all necessary wiring/switching) and new closet doors for us, and we will be using them to re-tile our bathroom floor as soon as we decide on tile.  They also replaced a shut-off valve for the kitchen sink, and when our main supply valve to the house got stuck (common on older houses), Kevin quickly coordinated a licensed emergency plumber and the Village Public Works department, to get the water shut off at the street and the main supply valves replaced immediately.  I highly recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Had a problem with a backed up kitchen sink in Wheaton. Called in the morning and they were able to have Dave out in the afternoon. Great! Dave was on time and very friendly. He came in got right to work and fixed the problem. Sink was back in service like new!

My only gripe (and in no way related to Dave) was the overall cost of the service which was $227 for a 45 minute service call. Frankly, Armbrust, this is a bit much by any measure. About $175 I would have been okay with but the $50 charge for use of the rodding machine.... come on!

If I hire a carpenter I don't expect him to charge me for the hammer and nails. A painter does not bill for the roller and brushes. Why are you billing for the tools of your trade... Just a way to gouge people I suspect.

I'm actually quite familiar with pricing of services....labor, materials, incidentals, overhead, etc. I think you're finishing touch of adding in a final $14.00 for fuel and consumable recovery was rather quite inventive... taking a cue from the taxi cab companies are we?

Anyway, did you a good job and on time? yes!

Do I feel I was fairly charged? No

Would I recommend? Only if it were an emergency.

Great,  quick service! They were prompt, friendly,  thorough and cleaned up when they were finished!

Loved guy showed up in a mask. He was polite, efficient and prompt. I plan to have him do some work for me after the thanksgiving holiday.

Extremely Knowledgeable and of the Highest Integrity.

Rarely these days do you come across truly remarkable people in business who do the right thing for the customer, it is usually the opposite.  When I talked to Dan last week, I was truly impressed.

As a shade tree mechanic, I have fixed most things over the past 50 years. I had a leak in the shower that I tried to fix it and I could not stop the leak. I gave up and decided to call a professional to come fix it.

After calling Welter Plumbing, Dan asked us to send a few photos of the problem.  He called back a few minutes later and we talked briefly.  He gave me fantastic advice over the phone.  15 minutes later, I fixed the leak.

I am truly grateful for saving me hundreds of dollars on a service call and would highly encourage to reach out to Welter Plumbing for ALL your plumbing needs.

You will be hard pressed to find more responsive, professional or diligent plumbers in the western suburbs. They stopped by within 3 hours of my phone call, resolved the issue and were reasonably priced on top of it. Will absolutely use them again if needed.

These guys are the best plumbers in the Chicagoland area period. They show up with what they need always. Which means they dont have to come back and charge multiple times. Clean, punctual, cost effective. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Stellar organization.  They are efficient, courteous, and reasonably priced.  

The crew and owner typify what it means to work with and within the community.  They are attentive to needs and respectful of client anxiety.

Very fair, honest, and quick to respond.  Initial verbal quote over the phone was also very accurate.  Highly recommend these folks.

We hired these plumbers to do a whole house re- piping. If you need that job done, call these people.  They are a job-done option: they will pull down walls, replace plumbing,  and put the walls back up. (huge because getting contracters to put up drywall after the fact would be difficult).

It was a big job and they made it very easy. We got multiple estimates and the price was fair. The owner has a straightforward, serious, honest manner, the type you would trust to babysit your kids. We were very comfortable spending money with this company and are happy with the results.

We were referred by a neighbor, and have now used Kennedy 4 times in the last 6 months for three different issues (sump pump, water heater, toilet). They have always responded promptly, shown up exactly what time they said they would, explained the problem and fix in detail, and charged a fair price. Very professional and friendly. Would recommend them highly.

We have used Walsh and Son Sewer for a number of issues and have never been disappointed.  They are  punctual, clean and professional.  I've never had to call back for additional service on an issue.  I would use them again and again.

I don't like bog box stores. Roaming the aisles for hours trying to find the one employee that is both present and in possession of a brain. I like finding the good supply houses and dealing with them. My last job was a replacement of an ejector pump at my dad's house. Not a rosey job by any stretch of the imagination, but it's the sort of thing that is nice when you get it done. When I walked into Harlem Plumbing I made it clear. I don't want lousy china crap that breaks in three days. The folks behind the counter knew precisely what I was talking about. They did a fantastic job. I had my list, I knew what I needed, I knew the calculations, head loss, applicable codes....but they were ready to help and had some great advice and stories. In modern times, the word expert is now exclusively used to describe talking idiots on TV, I must say that the folks at harlem plumbing are master tradesmen (and women?). They also have a good throughflow of top notch local plumbers. There was nothing intimidating or condescending about the interaction. the folks were prompt, professional, friendly. Where the smart one at the big box store watches a 30 minute youtube video as training, these folks had been in the trade all of their lives. I left absolutely certain that I had the right stuff and the job would be done right. I can't say that for the happy, shiny, lucky, golden store brands at the big box stores. That experience is more along the lines of god, I hope this crap works. Harlem Plumbing is a solid local supply house with great people. I can't say it enough. Rock on Harlem Plumbing! Please don't stop or sell out to the corporate pukes. The service you provide is much needed and appreciated.

I am very thankful and grateful to Vilano plumbing, we had a situation where another contractor started the work and could not pass the city inspection, Vilano was highly recommended to me by a friend, so he came out and explained what was wrong, very knowledgeable, better than the inspector, he had to redo almost entire job but we passed inspection on the first time the inspector came back.
I highly recommend Eugen and his crew from Vilano Plumbing

I have used them before, a little pricey but did the job.  I called them for major plumbing work.  They came out looked it over and seemed interested in the job.  After that I could not get them to call me back or talk to me.

Horrible customer service.  I was in need of assistance, looking for a part for my toilet and was not assisted in a friendly manner.  I was the only woman in line and was treated in a demeaning manner, even the other men waiting for assistance laughed at the customer service rep assisting me, guess if you are a woman, in a man's plumbing world you are considered a joke.  I would never recommend this store to anyone!
