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.

AMAZING SERVICE!! I had several jobs and Kevin and the team did an incredible job in taking care of them all! Very fair pricing, timely response, and expertise in a myriad of services! They will for sure be my first call for our next home project!!

So I needed a new sump pump. Called these guys, they seemed reasonable and were quick.

Guy comes, tells me because of where my sump pump is he'd be surprised if it ever kicks on, but I told him to proceed and install the new one regardless.

After he installs it I asked if we could test it. He said no, why would I want to do that, it's your sump pump now and literally packs up his gear and leaves.

Wow.

For the record, the thing kicks in all the time during heavy rains, even though the genius plumber said he'd be surprised if it ever did.

Anyway,  I would strongly advice against this company. Clearly they don't stand behind their work or give a crap about customers.

I have unfortunately needed plumbing work twice in the last six months. Used this company twice and was satisfied with the service and fee seemed fair.  Both times they were prompt, polite and did a good job. The men made sure not to make a mess, then cleaned up. Explained what work was needed and gave me a fair estimate before doing the work. I would definitely use them again. .

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.

I called Welter plumbing to set up an appointment for them to come out and give me an estimate on a backup battery powered sump pump replacement. Given the current system's age, 10+ years, I wasn't sure if it would be prudent to have it repaired or if I should have it replaced. Once the plumber learned that my current backup was a high quality system, trusty warns, he encouraged me to contact the company to see it if it was under warranty and, therefore, worth repairing & keeping. After a few minor adjustments I found out my old system was still good and no replacement was needed. Because of Welter plumbing's counsel I was able to have an operational backup sump pump without it costing me a dollar. When I was considering buying a replacement backup sump pump, from an online supply house, they gave me sound professional advice on which model to purchase from the zoeller company. This is a good,honest business that will assist you even when they don't stand to profit by doing so. I will highly recommend this genuine company to my friends and neighbors when they are in need of plumbing services.

These guys are so great! We've had them do work twice at our home. They took all of the necessary precautions due to COVID. They are timely, reliable, and get the job done well. Couldn't ask for more!

Central Plumbing is a great company. I'm not the easiest person to deal with , rather I should say with my project I wasn't, and working with Rob and his dad was a blessing in disguise.

For my project I was doing a new buildout of pretty ratchet and neglected office space. Rob's dad came by looked around , looked at the blueprints, gave me some suggestions, and off he went to work. The quote given was very reasonable for the work done. The tore up the concrete and capped two pipes, capped parts of the ceiling ( didn't know they did could do that , they should advertise it ), installed a new toilet, 2 sinks, and water heater. Where there was 3 toilets there is now one.

What made them great?
1. They were on time each time.
2. Worked with my schedule to have job completed within time frame.
3. Gave advice of what to expect from pipes that have not been used in a while and what to do to fix any problem. Problem occurred just like they said would most likely happen.
4. Genuine and sincere family.

Pittman Plumbing is excellent.  The entire team (Don, Ernest, Liddell, and the younger son) far exceeded my expectations. There are many adjectives that describe this company-- professional, caring, attentive, and focused. They had to remove old pipe, troubleshoot, and install new piping for my home.  They were efficient, reliable, and most importantly, they finished the job when they said they would (unlike most contractors).  They are my plumbers for life!! Nicely done.

Day before thanksgiving had a severe Bathtub leak. They came out immediately and fixed it. I had 2 other plumbers that didn't know what they were doing, with the continued leak. One place wanted to charge 400 just to come to my home.
Very professional and they know what they are doing. Glad to have found a reliable, professional plumber. Fair price. A+ service.

this company doesn't stand up to their commitments. 7am appointment were late 45 min, came out, charged for a job never finished properly and refused to come again or refund money. public needs to know-  BE AWARE. Do not trust them unless you have it in writing and can use it at court!!!

This company and the guys are the best. Had complicated sewer work that needed to be done- They showed up on time, were professional, respectful and friendly. Would 100% recommend them for any plumbing job.

in the past, I'm pretty sure I've had the worst plumbers in the Chicago area, and now I'm so glad I've found the best with Walsh & Son.  In the past couple of years, John has come to my house three times: this week for a damaged outside hose faucet and pipe; another time for toilet problems, etc.  He has always been professional, knowledgeable, polite, punctual, and neat . . . and his price is more than fair. In short, he is everything you hope a plumber to be.  I rarely write reviews:  only for the very best, and the worst.  If you call Walsh & Son, you're getting the very best!

I am glad I came here. I stopped at the big box stores and they had some options but nothing that would help with my issue. Once I got here I had the feeling they usually work with plumbers more but the staff here was and I could tell they had the experience and knew what they were talking about. In fact I drew out what my issue looked like and they talked me through a couple ways to fix it. They also had tons of options so you were bound to find what you needed. All my future plumbing issues I plan to come here for the experience of the staff and the large selection of options.

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

We hired Thiesse to remedy a problem in our basement that was being caused by the city sewers backing up during heavy storms. They recommended installing an ejector pit, into which all the basement piping (floor drain, laundry tub, etc.) would be plumbed. This in turn would eliminate the open drains that the city sewer was backing up into.

After they did the work, we noticed backups in the main stack & immediately notified the company of the problem. They came out again & spent a couple hours rodding the sewer line immediately outside the area they'd worked on days earlier, then told us they couldn't find anything wrong but we should break open the main sewer outside the house, as it was likely blocked or collapsed. (Huh?) We declined this, since we had never had a problem with it prior to the work they did in the basement. We paid almost $500 for this rodding & diagnosis, by the way - this was in addition to the money we paid to have the ejector pit installed.

About a week later, I went into the basement & noticed another backup around the floor drain & water again leaking out of the joints in the main stack a few feet above the floor. This led me to believe the blockage was inside the house. My wife called Thiesse & asked they come out yet again to fix the problem.

When they arrived, they brought their sewer foreman with them - someone who had never seen the house or the work previously done. He proceeded to try to rod the line inside the house, but kept hitting an obstruction beneath the floor. He broke the floor open (this after we had already had it patched after their previous efforts) & determined the plumbers who'd installed the ejector pit had inadvertently filled the main line leading outside with hydraulic cement. His words were looks like we caused the problem.

They returned the next day & removed the clogged pipe, breaking out even more of the concrete floor in the process. Sewage finally flowed again, but Thiesse had the audacity to send us another bill for fixing the problem they had created! We told them in no uncertain terms we would not be paying the bill & they became very hostile, claiming WE had somehow caused the problem.

Our experience was among the worst I've ever had with a company & I would never, under any circumstances, recommend them. Buyer beware.

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!
