Best Plumbing Services in United States
I would rate Rocket Plumbing 1-star for competence and 1-star for taking responsibility for their blunders, but the individual plumber was a nice guy who tried hard, he just had no clue how to diagnose a moderately complex problem. In short, I periodically had hot water coming from the cold side of all of my faucets and asked Rocket to diagnose and fix. About $1000 later they did a bunch of pointless work that didn't resolve the problem -- and then failed to turn the water back on to our ice machine. When questioned as why the ice machine was no longer working, they said they didn't repair appliances. I hired an appliance person who in 30 seconds, turned the water back on and charged me $150. When I complained to Rocket, the owner refused to make it right. Fast forward, my hot/cold problem was subsequently repaired by an experienced plumber - and it was a very simple fix that cost $280. You can find a better and more honest plumber than Rocket.

Thomas and Tuffy were WONDERFUL!! We have an old house that had lots of roots in the drain and they worked and got all of them out! We can now wash clothes and wash dishes, thank you for that! Would call you guys in a minute for whatever problem we have!

Jose and his team are awesome! Our new (but old) house was having problems with drainage, so we tried Windy City Plumbing. They were able to come to our house right away, and took care of 30 years of grease build up (rodded, cameraed and jetted pipes). Jose was able to diagnose and solve our problem quickly. He is extremely knowledgeable, very professional, and also affordable. Highly recommend!

I (weirdly and accidentally!) got a spray bottle stuck in my toilet pipes, and it was super clogged. First Chicago Plumbing was FANTASTIC! Raudel arrived exactly on time, and he was friendly and super resourceful -- had to try a whole bunch of different things to get that dang bottle out, and he was professional and communicative throughout. It was all reasonably priced too, considering he literally UNINSTALLED and REINSTALLED the toilet?! I absolutely recommend these guys (and Raudel specifically!). Lifesavers.

Best plumbers around. Peace of mind. Exceeded expectations with new sink rough-in that made a floating sink setup really look incredible. Took their time to make it look clean and didn't just slap it together.

Needed help last minute for a catch basin scope and clean. The J Sewer team showed up same day and took care of business. Fair prices, great communication and excellent team.

Green Tech is the best plumbing service we have used to date. Referred to us by a friend I. The business who is retiring, we found the whole team at Green Tech to be very timely, professional, and reasonably priced.
Mark was excellent. He diagnosed our issue quickly, and had it fixed and working perfectly within no time. We are very grateful to know the team at Green Tech and will absolutely be using them for all of our plumbing needs.

I have to give a detailed review because my experience was absolutely amazing. If you don't want to read the full review but want to know a short version: I HIGHLY recommend MHJSS, not just recommend but HIGHLY!
ok, so here is the fine print:
I've been smelling a sewage smell on my 1st floor, coming from my bathroom for the last few years. It comes and goes and when it goes it leaves long enough for me to forget about it. Just recently it came back and is stronger than ever, so much so that I can smell it moving throughout my home. I have a family plumber I've been using since the '90s and I'm big on small business so as usual I called and got my home rodded. Since purchasing my home in 2014 I get an annual rodding done since I can't watch what my company and children flush down the drain.
Wanting to get a 2nd opinion I googled and came up with Mr. Rooter, sent a message on their website, and set up a date and time for them to come to consult. I took off work since they told me it was a window from 12-3 pm. To make a long story short, I work overnight and was asleep when they called me at 8 am the day of to tell me they would arrive at 12. Since I missed the called they canceled my appointment. I was upset when I woke up at 11 am to get this voicemail. I took to google again, I had no patience nor desire to deal with this (Plus they told me since I lived on the south side I needed to pay $90 extra for the plumber to come south).
Google lead me to MHJSS. I read reviews and called. I can't remember who I spoke with but the guy was professional and gave me confidence that I'd found the right company.
About an hour later, Danny called me to say he was on his way. (Quick appointment, same day, no BS). He arrived on time with his partner Jose. They asked the perfect questions and before I could explain everything, they knew what needed to be done and starting accessing. Danny took his time and explained EVERYTHING so that I could understand all about my plumbing issues. He showed me things I didn't expect to see since my family plumber does frequent work at my home. I was able to get a Hydro Jetting and he immediately told me why we could smell the sewage in the house.
Being a novice to this entire industry, Danny and Jose made sure I knew what was going on, why, and how it can be fixed. They took their time, did things correctly, cleaned up behind themselves, and did so in a professional and safe manner. They worked great as a team and even better as plumbers. I felt like I'd know them personally before today since they were so personable. I wasn't rushed, I wasn't pitched a sales pitch, and I was comfortable with them in my home.
Bigger name companies need to take notes from these guys. I hope nothing about their process changes because from now on I will be using MHJSS for all my plumbing needs and will continue to refer them to everyone I know, as a matter of fact, my neighbor will be using them soon for his multiunit apartment building (I gave him MHJSS phone number, LOL).
Thank you again Danny and Jose and also MHJSS!!!

I had an outdoor post light in the front yard that didn't work. Anel arrived on time. He was professional and explained what he was doing. After a bit of trouble shooting, he efficiently replaced the outlet and switch. I now have light on a very dark street.
While not a major repair, my overall experience with Sims & Sons was great and I would definitely use them for bigger jobs. Super responsive as well.

On a Sunday, our ejector pump died. We started a help claim from yelp and CJ Plumbing was one of the first to reply. The owner, Dmitry, was available on a Sunday to troubleshoot our situation over the phone. He figured out a way to temporarily bypass our issue. This saved us money by being able to wait until normal hours to get service. It was amazing and provided us with a huge relief!
The work was very prompt and expertly completed. We would definitely recommend CJ Plumbing to anyone!

They came out early per my request and checked a clogged sink. They explained why it seemed clogged and didn't charge me for the consultation since they didn't have to do any unclogging. Very professional, fair, and trustworthy!

Noel is a great plumber. Arrived exactly on time to fix my leaky faucet that had created a pool of water on my kitchen floor. Worked diligently to ascertain the source of the leak and reset the cartridge that was driving me crazy. Would highly recommend his work. The leak is completely fixed and plumbing adjustments were made that left the site much better than he found it. Will definitely call Noel again. You should hire him without reservation! Thank you Noel!

Called to have a leaky toilet fixed. Geoff was out the next morning, on time, called to let me know they were on their way. He showed me the problem from the last plumber and he fixed everything! Great job! Will definitely be using Apex for ALL my plumbing needs from now on!

I called Vanguard. The person answering didn't identify himself or the company. I had to ask if I had reached Vanguard. I described my problem (kitchen sink drains backed up with gray, gritty sludge; unit in a condo building). The person had more questions than I could provide answers (How many floors in the building? How many units in the building? What's happening in the units below me?). He then informed me that he wouldn't be able to provide services for two days. He is completely booked up.
I wasn't impressed.

Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience with Fixer recently. I hired them to install my kitchen backsplash because I saw the reviews on here, as well as one from a friend of mine that personally used them for tile work. I provided them with pictures of the work that needed to be done, advised them that I had a wet saw and all tools and products needed to complete the job, just needed someone with the expertise to do it.
I was quoted 3-4 hrs for the backsplash installation, with 1-2 hrs for putting in the grout. I opted out of them applying the grout and decided to do that myself once they were finished. I was tight on cash and Fixer provided the best quote, so I went with them.
On 10/23, the fixer showed up on time and ready to work. I gave him three options to set up the wet saw. He decided to use our garage. He got to work, and 3 hrs in he still hadn't had any tile on the wall. I asked him if this would take longer than the 3-4 hours I was quoted and he told me he thought I knew it was going to take longer and the dispatch should have told me. I told him to stop working because I wasn't prepared to pay for more time. He said it would take more than double of what they quoted me to finish.
I spoke with the manager John who said he would look at the transcript and see if was an error in their side. He called me back and told me it was and that they would finish the job for the amount quoted. I was satisfied with this, so I told the Fixer to continue, even let him speak to the manager John to confirm.
There are multiple tiles without spacers, which make each tile visibly uneven. Some of the cuts made on the tile are even visible when the covers for the outlets are on. The entire run above the stove isn't level and they used unnecessary tile behind the stove, even though I provided a piece of wood to hold the tile up so we wouldn't have to waste any tile. There was also mortar left on multiple tiles as well as the wall, where no tile was laid. The mortar for the tile is be dry by now, and it doesn't seem like anything can be taken off, so it will have to be chipped off or something.
Overall this experience has been terrible. Not only was I quoted incorrectly, but I am out 400 dollars for the time I was willing to pay for, and I am out on the tiles used that will have to be taken off due to poor installation.
