Best Plumbing Services in Illinois

Hired Zoom Drain after looking all over the place on Yelp and elsewhere for someone to de-root my sewer line.  Found Zoom Drain on Yelp, and e-mailed them along with several others.  They were very responsive and helpful setting up the appt.  Christian was the technician who arrived.  He was VERY helpful.  Walked me through the whole inspection (I wanted to learn what was going on).  Inspected the whole line.  It turns out - there wasn't a root problem!  The pricing was absolutely fair and he didn't oversell any products/services - very honest and helpful.  Any future work or big projects, they will be first on the list to use again!  Couldn't recommend enough!

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!!

Have used Paul twice.  Super responsive, clean and professional.  He installed a backup sump system which ended up saving our basement as our primary sump pump went out three years later.

Recently had the water heater go out.  I sent Paul a text and got a response within minutes.  He was willing to come out the next day to replace it.  Again, very clean & professional and I know it was done properly.  Always gives you an estimate and is fair priced.  After installing the water heater, he sent a text 2 hours later making sure everything the water was hot.  I wish there were more professionals like Paul.

Definitely recommend.

I had to reach out to Forte because they were on a list of authorized servicers for my hot water heater warranty.   Other plumbers refused the job outright because of the brand, and my original installer even suggested (repeatedly) that the warranty would not be valid. The first authorized place I called answered with voicemail and never did call me back.

Forte Plumbing actually had a real live person to answer the phone, a very nice lady who took my information and arranged for someone to contact me as soon as they were available.  

Even though it was apparent he could not fit the job in on a busy Friday, Robert Forte made several calls on my behalf to determine how I could get a replacement for my hot water heater.  He spoke with the supply company and was able to give me specific instructions on how I could get the unit on my own in the meantime.

Mr. Forte wasn't actually able to do the work, and he realized this from the start.  He could have just said, Sorry, call me Monday.  But what he DID do was enable me to have another plumber handle the job because I was able to satisfy the warranty issue.  I WILL contact Forte Plumbing when I next have a need.  And I WILL recommend them to anyone that asks.

Rescue Plumbing is the best of the best of the best; I can't say enough good things about this company and their service!
I've now had occasion to work with Rescue Plumbing twice, on behalf of my clients (who own rental properties in the city); both times, I worked with Pete.  He answered my call and made sure he came to my client's property that same day.  Pete is terrific; he diagnoses the problem, provides a solution, and presents a very fair price.
Moreover, he works quickly and efficiently.  The work is completed professionally.
Rescue Plumbing has made my job much easier and much more worry-free.  I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to have a company of this calibre, serving my clients.  
I heartily recommend Rescue Plumbing, for all your plumbing & piping needs.

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!!!!

I highly recommend Burr Oak plumbing. We had a whole houseful of plumbing issues that Pete took care of for us. His pricing is fair and his work is excellent!!!!

Positive experience, was able to call Ray during an emergency at 11pm (I live in Mokena) he came right out fixed the problem. Very nice and didn't charge a fortune. Will  definitely  use again.

Advantage Plumbing and Drain, Inc. totally ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!  Jennifer couldn't have been more courteous and accommodating on the phone when I called to schedule and appointment and went out of her way to work around my schedule.  Josh called to let me know he was on his way and even put shoe covers on to do the initial estimate just walking around the house and I really appreciated that.  He was most patient, nice, and knowledgeable, and listened and took notes.  I have to have several things replaced and had a lot of questions and he went through everything step by step to make sure I understood what needs to be fixed and how best to do it.  I am very lucky to be their customers and can't wait for the work to start!  My family was also in the plumbing business and Advantage Plumbing and Drain, Inc. is on the level and is very customer-service oriented.  I was stressed because there are several plumbing problems, but Josh made this a very positive experience.  I wish Josh, Jennifer, and the whole team much continued success and greatly look forward to recommending Advantage Plumbing and Drain, Inc. whenever I can.  :) :)

Plumber Yuri came out in -13c morning to fix my leaky shower faucet. He repaired it expertly and efficiently. He even provided advise for proper operation. Thank you DP&S I am once again very happy with service provided.

I'm stingy with 5 star reviews (not everybody can be the best or it wouldn't mean anything), but MD Plumbing deserves every one of the five. Based on my experience with them, they are honest, efficient, and responsive, charging very reasonable rates.

Marc came when he said, and did not waste time, He realized he needed a specialty part, which turned out to be very expensive, so I decided to just buy a new faucet. Marc came on time and efficiently installed the faucet. He also made a repair to my bathroom pipes, but explained that I would eventually need to get the whole thing replaced.

I want to mention Kim, too; she's so nice. My life is a little complicated right now, so I needed some extra attention. Kim was very helpful and so patient with me and my many calls. She even returned calls when she said she would, which is rare these days.

Fast service and friendly. Came out on a Sunday for an emergency repair for leaking faucet. Arrived quickly and repaired fast also. Mike was great. This is our second time using them.

Oh what fun it is to wake up sick on your day off and discover your sewer line is backed up.  Fabulous!  My husband frantically started calling plumbers in the area and worried where we would take the children to use a washroom when the call for nature arose.  Yet, I immediately turned to the best resource out there.  Yelp.  

The Sewer Guy is located in Lyons, which is in close proximity to us here in Brookfield.  I gave Greg a call and he was very personable and professional.  You can tell a lot about a person from a phone call.  It got even better when he said he would be here in 15 minutes.  What???  Yes, please.

Greg did a great job rodding out our sewer and was very affordable.  The whole process took under an hour and it was nice chatting with Greg for the duration.  We will definitely call The Sewer Guy again if we are in need of any of his services.  Recommend!

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.

Derrick was very professional, listen to problem and worked out solution.... need new faucet, water lines ok. He will return to install faucet for a reasonable charge.
I would recommend.

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.

*UPDATE: We were contacted by Four Seasons within minutes of posting this, as they review our situation. After further review, they agreed the unit placed in our home was not the correct size and replaced it with the correct one. We were very pleased that they offered to fix this at no charge to us. Communication between us was good through this process. It appears that we were unlucky to have worked with one bad tech. Everyone else has been very professional and helpful.

A Four Seasons tech came by today to explain to me why my gas bills have increased dramatically since the replacement of my old furnace. Apparently, the tech who initially came recommended a significantly smaller unit than what we previously had. We went with the base model, which basically was a drop-in replacement for what we had before (works the same way-not energy efficient). This made my gas bill more than double from the previous month. Unfortunately, since the new unit is close enough to the size needed for our square footage in our home, there is NOTHING they will do to fix this issue. Our options were not explained well, nor was it made clear that the unit that was put in would raise our monthly gas bill. Not to mention, I was under the impression that we were making an energy efficient choice. If I would have known that my monthly bills would be effected, I would have chosen a unit that was the same size as what we had. Furthermore, I would have actually chosen an energy-effiecient model. I feel like I was taken advantage of, being a new homeowner and not knowing anything about furnaces. I also felt pressured to make a decision right away as he stayed in the room with me and my husband, not giving us any alone time to talk to each other. Poor customer service.

I am so upset with Ed the Plumber. They charged a ridiculous amount of money to show up for a simple job. When I tried to discuss this with them, I got the same sorry, there is nothing I can do speech, and if I refused the service, they were going to charge a $125 fee for showing up. The woman who answers the phone hung up on me when were discussing her unscrupulous pricing tactics. We had used Ed the Plumber in the past, but I will NEVER use them again, and I encourage anyone else NOT to use them as well.

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.
