Best Plumbing Services in United States
Called up Rocket on a Monday trying to get a ballpark quote on a new ejector pump since the one in my newly purchased house decided to stop working (don't get me started on how I found out that it was broken). Anyhow, got a call back within 20 minutes with a round number and I continued to shop around. Called another well known Yelp plumber who decided not to follow through and book an appoint; called Rocket back on Wednesday and made an appointment for Friday at 4 pm.
Someone in my house left work early for the 4 pm appointment and was home most of the day. At 2:30 the plumber calls and says he had a cancellation and can come early. The woman I live with who is related to me by marriage calls back within 10 minutes but is told the office sent him to another job instead of coming to perform our service early. No problem right? At 4:30 nobody has arrived and we call the office. They apologize profusely saying they dropped the ball on this one and will make it up to us with a slight discount. Annoying but mistakes happen and we really appreciated the honesty. Setup the new appointment for 7 am the next morning.
I'll amend this review later to give props to the actual plumber who can to do the work, but in short he was great. Professional, honest ... took the time to explain what had broke and how he was going to fix it. Gave us new home owners some lessons about a vital piece of equipment in our place. He was in and out within 75 minutes and was really down to earth. I know he's new with Rocket and I would advise ownership to hang onto him because he's an asset to the company.
I hope to not having any plumbing emergencies in my future, but if I do or I want to perform some upgrades, Rocket will be at the top of my list to call for a quote.

I had a sewage backup in my basement.
I called in the morning and thankfully they had an opening. They got to working right away. A responsive and respectable team.
They explained all the issues and found one I will need to address at some point in the future.
Straightforward group, great results.
Thank you David and your team!
I will certainly call you all again!

I never write reviews but felt compelled to write one for Windy City Plumbing. Jose was great - very coureous and professional. We needed work done on a sink very quickly - we sold our house and needed a faucet fixed based on the home inspection. Jose came quickly to fix the sink - he needed a very specific tool, so he went out and bought it, came back and fixed the sink. We also needed the receipt right away and he helped us out with that very quickly.
I would recommend Jose to anyone! He was great, he goes out of his way to help you, and he is a true professional!

We had new countertops installed, and a new sink along with it, and I was looking for a plumber to come in behind them to get our faucet (installed) and reconnected. We also had a fixture we wanted changed out in the bathroom. These guys were able to come out that same day and do everything I needed done.
They couldn't test the bathroom fixture and warned me about the leak that absolutely occurred because of the drain size. I texted them, they came back out now that they could run the water, and got me all fixed up (again). I really hope I'm not a regular customer, but I know I have great plumbers if I do.

Since I used Yelp to find Sound Plumbing, I thought it was only fair to register and echo the reviews of others. Despite it being Saturday afternoon, Kevin responded to my voicemail promptly, arrived at our place in Edgewater just a little later and had our kitchen sink up and running (with a much-improved pipe assembly) in no time. Icing on the cake was a his incredibly reasonable price for a job well done. HIGHLY recommended!!

I had called two plumbing companies to rod out a kitchen sewer drain and they failed miserably. Thankfully, I call Jesus and in 20 minutes resolved our problem flawlessly. He was very clean, polite and stuck around to be sure the drain was cleared properly.
I recommend J Sewer without any hesitation.

Green Tech recently replaced my sump pump and performed routine sewer rodding. Prompt, friendly and efficient service. I consider their prices fair for the area and will definitely use them again.

So far so good. The crew were very responsive, came the next day, and helped us clear out some slow drains and a backed up line

Adam and Angelo did a fantastic job fixing my blocked sewer and then cleaning the sewage pit out in our basement. They were quick and courteous and I'm very happy with their work. I have used captain rooter in the past and will be using them again.

Very responsive - did a great job on a clogged downspout and tub drain. This is the 3rd time I've called them - consistent good service.

We had a great experience start to finish with ABV. When my in-laws' shower faucet began to get too loose and stop working, my husband tried to fix it. This, of course, resulted in the faucet breaking off completely and our need for some immediate help and repair. My husband sent out a yelp inquiry to a number of plumbers and ABV was the first to respond and also give us a flat rate of $125 for the repair. No one else would give us a flat rate and were also charging just to have someone look at it.
We set up an appointment the next morning with ABV. The plumber showed up right on time, giving us a text when he was 20 minutes away. He came prepared with the parts needed, was able to fix the issue in less than 30 minutes, and as a result only charged us a third of what his original flat rate we agreed on was since the repair was so easy and quick. You don't see that kind of honesty these days! The job was done with excellent quality and the faucet works like a dream now.

Trust! I think trust is most important in choosing an expert to fix a problem. Of course experience, knowledge, ability and integrity are also needed. But trusting the reviews written by others or trusting the recommendation of a friend is sometimes all we have to go by. I had a clogged drain about 15 feet downstream from my kitchen sink. It was the result of overzealous use of the garbage disposal. I tried snaking the drain myself but the clog was too big (turns out about 2 feet of drain was totally blocked). I did research on several websites looking for a plumber in my area who I could trust to do the work right - at a fair price. I narrowed the list to 4 companies. At 7:15 PM on a weekday I called each of them. I got two answering services that could not answer any of my technical questions, another said they would have someone call me back in a few minutes (never happened) and then there was Dmitry. Dmitry is one of the owners of CJ Plumbing. He answered the phone himself. He was able to discuss my issue intelligently, explain the likely scenarios and give me an estimated price range (min and max) for the job. It was clear from his questions and his input that he understood the problem and knew the likely solutions. As it turns out, he was absolutely correct about the issue and what it would take to fix it. I wanted to consider what he said before making a commitment. He said I could call him back anytime in the next few hours. I called several hours later and again he answered the phone and we scheduled a visit for the following afternoon.
The plumber who showed up (not the person I spoke to) was a delight to work with. He was professional, polite, and patient as he answered my many questions. He tried a few easy options to fix the problem (e.g. using a powered drain snake). When those did not work he said the best option was to cut out the clogged section of drain (which he had located) and replace it with a new section of pipe. The clogged part of the pipe included two 90 degree bends. He removed that section and replaced the sharp bends with pairs of 45 degree bends to allow waste to pass through the more easily. The drain pipe ran along the ceiling of my unfinished basement so there was direct access to the pipe. After replacing the section of pipe he verified that there were no leaks and cleaned up the area of the basement where he worked as well as the area under the kitchen sink. He even cleaned the sink.
I was VERY pleased with his work and with his personality. The cost of the repair was within the range quoted on the phone (though near the higher end). My trust in CJ Plumbing was rewarded by their performance and their honesty. I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to friends and family. I recommend them to YOU.

I had a rocky toilet that was supposedly fixed by Chicagoland Handyman in June of 2022, but five months later the rocking was back. I searched for a plumber to fix this unsteady toilet once and for all. I called Mike the Plumber. He was able to come out the next day and was able to to stabilize my toilet. Mike the Plumber was very nice as he explained what the problem was and what he was going to do to fix it. He said if the rocking comes back (which it won't) he will tend to it. I will definitely call Mike the Plumber for any future plumbing issues in my old building. Thank you Mike!

Juan is the only plumber provided the estimate of the water heater model that I wanted. He arrived on schedule and performed the installation. The unit was defective, not Juan's fault, where he called Rheem to expedite the part. The part arrived the next day and Juan came the following day and got my new water heater resolved.
Recommend A&Y Plumbing and Juan is responsive and provide good service.

We have used Noel several times now and I've yet to find anyone in Chicago more reliable! He always answers the phone right away and makes himself available when quick repairs are needed (i.e. for water/plumbing leaks, etc.) His service prices are always reasonable, too, and he explains all services and product recommendations in great detail.
We will always use Five Plumbing whenever we need plumbing service!

Plumber was very condescending over the phone and clearly did not want to take on the work. I was told that free estimates don't apply to condominium buildings. Very disappointed in the lack of professionalism and transparency with Apex.

Jan does quality work. I'm not sure if he is the least expensive plumber, but I am incredibly happy with the work he did and the price was fair. He arrived on time and worked cleanly.

I needed a new water heater, I called them and they were here within the hour. I had a new water heater installed and they were out the door two hours later! Great team! Great response time! Very attentive! Thanks Victor!

Katie and Ben are both great. They all came on the time and did the job within an hour. They also gave good tips.

I had an emergency plumbing issue. Our main line was clogged. All 3 toilets in our home were backed up and sewer water backed up into our laundry room!
The guys at Drain Works responded first and was available within 2 hours.
They came prepared; masked up and even has booties so they don't stain our floors.
They took a camera down the main line and showed us exactly what the issue was.
After quoting us a very reasonable price, they were available immediately the next day on the big job.
They dug up 3 containers of tree roots and dirt in our main line!
The job took 3 days to complete. Each day they meticulously laid out plastic coverings everywhere and thoroughly cleaned up at the end of each day.
They really saved the day for us especially during these times.
Would definitely recommend them to anyone and will use them again for future plumbing services.
