Best Sump Pump Repair in Milwaukee WI
Usually when you need a plumber, you REALLY need a plumber. So you go on line and start searching hoping that the random one you pick turns out to be a good choice.
Well if you are looking, and are in the Milwaukee area, look no further than Taagen plumbing. I have been using them for years to service my rental properties in this area and they are great.
Trustworthy, honest, dependable and reasonably priced- I only wish I could find their equivalent in the Chicago area to work on my personal home.
They do the work that needs to be done and don't try to up sell you to things that you don't need. They clean up after themselves and are even willing to bill me for the work given I live out of state. And they run on time! (say that about your plumber!)
The woman that answers the phone is also great. She remembers me from job to job and works to prioritize my needs.
I hope you don't need a plumber as that usually means trouble. But if you do- call Taagen. They are tops in my book!

I read numerous positive reviews on Thumbtack regarding water softener repairs by this outfit, and I'm VERY pleased to say Waterfoul Plumbing did not disappoint! Corey was very professional, very courteous, and corrected our issue. Because our softener is 20+ years old, I figured we would have to purchase a new one, however, Corey indicated the unit was fine but just needed a new part. He corrected our issue within an hour. He's also very reasonable in terms of price. Waterfoul is now our go-to for all of our plumbing needs. Thanks, Corey!

Was referred to Brian by my regular guy when they couldn't take on an urgent toilet replacement. I reached Brian right away and he squeezed us in between 2 other jobs. He's a good communicator, arrived on time, and made a worrisome project go away quickly. Fair prices and easy to work with.

A company with Integrity, Imagine that in today's world. I cannot say enough about Mommaerts Plumbing, Inc. I was stunned when I asked a few people if they knew a great plumber. 3 people said Mommaerts. I called Mommaerts on a Sunday because my Hot Water Heater died. They returned my call promptly on Monday and the situation was resolved without me even being at he house. They quoted me a great estimate and they were right on the money, site unseen. They were fast, efficient, friendly, trustworthy and showed their integrity because when I arrived home, everything was cleaned up and you never even knew what happened. Thank you Mommaerts Plumbing!! I know I will also be recommending you to everyone I know.

We are currently in the middle of a quoted 4 day jon for a foundation and basement repair with Ihn Company. I may update this review once the job is done, but thus far I'm VERY disappointed in the service we've received. Our job: drain tile install, sump pump install and bracing of walls in our basement. Quite a pricy job. For the amount of money we are paying we are getting horrid services.
In the 4 weeks leading up to the job we had to call twice to confirm date and time as well as get information of what needed to be moved in the basement before work began. Arrival on day one was scheduled between 8 and 8:30 and the crew arrived around 9:15 am with no call. My husband was stuck waiting for them to show them to the basement as well as give them a key to the house and show them where the lock box was. I do have to say, it looked like good progress on day one.
Day two: No call, no show. No additional work done and materials were in the exact same spot as the previous day. I left a message after hours on their general voice mail asking for a call back first thing in the AM (it's now 10 am and I've yet to hear a peep out of them).
Day three: Call from the crew. The code to the lock box doesn't work. Oh wait, we wrote it down wrong. Apparently work continues.
Meanwhine, we have a newborn at home and were hoping this job would be done in 4 days because she's going to be home Thursday and Friday. Dust and noise don't mix well with babies, so if this job gets dragged out I'm going to be FUMING mad.
Further updates to come, but I have absolutely no faith in this company and the lackluster communication thus far as done nothing but frustrate and upset both my husband and me. At this point I would definitely not recommend them. I would have happily spent a little more money to get better service and great communication.

He is a very fair, prompt, and knowledgeable plumber and business man.
I would, without hesitation, recomend Thiessenhusen Plumbing for all of your plumbing needs.

I highly recommend South Shore Plumbing. I've hired them twice - once to install a new sink/faucet when I had new countertops installed and most recently to fix an electric water heater. They were responsive when I left a message and quickly fit me into the schedule. They are definitely my go-to for plumbing projects. I have worked with both Bob (owner) and Sean on these projects. They are the BEST.

Chris Urban is a master plumber. We have used Chris Urban twice now. I can handle most things around the house and I have attempted most things such as installed faucets, installed water filtration systems, water to ice maker and installed new water softener but occasionally come across things I just don't want to do/attempt or can't figure out. First visit was for a leak that I wasn't able to get to and diagnose so my wife had him over based on Yelp reviews. Chris diagnosed the issue and quickly resolved it. The next visit was a few days ago for an issue with our water heater and backdrafting. WE Energy just installed a new gas meter and while checking for leaks in the house he said the water heater wasn't exhausting properly. We had our HVAC (recently installed a new furnace) come out to see if they did something to change the exhaust that may have caused this issue. Nope, recommend calling a plumber as water heater is not HVAC issue. I called Chris and immediately he rerouted to our house as he was on his way to another job to assess the issue. Wow, I couldn't ask for more! He looked at it all and said there isn't any issue that WE Energy didn't know what they were talking about. Chris could have sold me on X, Y or Z issue and I wouldn't have known. So honesty is a strong trait with Urban's Plumbing. He didn't charge for the visit and explained what could have been the issue. Thanks Chris! I wouldn't hesitate to call Chris to do any job now and most likely will instead of me stumbling through plumbing work that I have no idea! If you are looking for a plumber, give Urban's Plumbing a call. I have him booked marked.

Requested a bid on a major remodeling project. Estimator was grumpy and seemed a little confused. He took some measurements, complained about a heat duct (which we told him we would take care of), and informed us that we would receive an estimate in two weeks. It has been several months and we have received neither a bid nor the basic courtesy of a no bid response. Give these guys a pass and go with the smaller local firms unless you are a multi-millionaire.

Roman Electric is a wonderful company to contact. They are always exceptionally polite and professional. Their work is thorough and always completed in a timely fashion. We have been very happy working with them and having them in our home.

This guy is a zero. I paid him 1/2 so far to fix a broken window. That was a month ago. Window not fixed. Does not return calls. I want my money back. I need to find someone else. Do not use
Milwaukee, WI
They are always very courteous, called when he was on his way, but on booties over his work boots. Very prompt, arrived exactly at the start of our time window. Knowledgeable, accurately diagnosed the problem. Quoted me for all work before doing it. He did end up locking his keys and phone in his car when he came back to give me his business card! I was happy to help HIM out, nice guy!

Had a back up in our garage sink, which was the lowest pipe in the house. Of course this happened 2days before Thanksgiving! So all of our plumbing was backed up. We called in the morning and by one Vince was at our house as he promised. He explained the problem and the cost(which was reasonable) and went to work. He ran a line through almost our whole house. Then he told us to put drain cleaner in our sink monthly(he could have skipped this). Turns out that the pipe that runs from our house to the street is on a mild slope so everything gathers and when it's cold it blocks everything up. Nice guy, cleaned up after himself, and worked professionally. What a relief to have found him. I always expect the worst when I have an emergency situation but this was a relief! I recommend him and his dudes.

We have an older 1950's home that we purchased a year ago. It was remodeled prior to us purchasing it. On the second floor we have a dual sink vanity. It recently started backing up when you would use the water for a period of time but then it would recede eventually. I tried to snake it myself only to fail. I called around and Professional Drain called back right away. I told them what kind of issue we had and they were out within an hour. Adam was able to break through what was suspected to be built-up rust in the vertical pipe eventually and everything is working great now. He estimated that he snaked down about 25 - 30ft. They charged a flat rate and gave us a warranty on their service. The area was cleaned up after and Adam asked that I take a look under the sink area to ensure there were no leaks prior to finishing. So glad we found them.

Great service! On-time, professional, cost effective. Needed a new sump pump, explained all the option and didn't make my feel horrible for picking the option I did. Even when I started to question my choice they reassured me what I picked would work for our house.

I had Wilkes come out in via my home warranty service to take a look at my Jacuzzi tub that was randomly turning on by itself. They came when my parents were there and left without a comment and so I assumed it was fixed.
After a week it came back on again and I had to follow up with Wilkes where they said they had to come back out since they couldn't get to it directly and had to go through the basement ceiling. They came back out again, charged me more money for the 2nd trip, and said it was fixed. Side note, they had to call a third party Jacuzzi service for advice on how to fix it.
A few months later the same problem started again and I called them to see if they would come out and fix it but to my surprise said that because it has been over 60 days, that I'd have to either make another claim with the home warranty service or hire them direct at $60 per trip + $110 per hour. They do not do a quality job to start or on the 2nd time around nor do they warranty their work more than 60 days so I would definitely not recommend this company.
