Best in Chicago IL

We had a clogged sewer line backing up from the floor drain where the washer drains into but also backing up from toilets.  We called them (Chicago Hts number but surely the same business) and like the Yellow Pages ad says, they were out within the hour.  The estimate was $250-275.  They rodded out the main line using the cleanout in the front yard and quickly the toilets were flushing smoothly.  

But not so the floor drain.  I had had some inklings that there was a clog very close by so it didn't totally surprise me that we actually had two clogs.  And, boy did they have to work to clear this one, finally having to remove the standpipe thing coming from the washer and even having to bring in the big machine they used outside.  (They were having to snake through a trap in the piping under the concrete slab floor to get to the clog.)  I asked if releasing that clog would potentially move on to reclog the mainline and true to their word, they went back outside and rodded the mainline all over again.  They explained what they were doing and why they would do it the way they did at every stage.

The floor drain clog took a lot more work than the mainline clog and they could have asked for double the quote.  In the end the tab came to $400 which is not cheap but I think for 2 men and the amount of time spent not only doing it but doing it right (so far as I could tell), it was reasonable.  Hopefully it all stays free running for a long time.  I would use them again when the time comes.

So, I came home to water all over the bathroom & a very leaky toilet.  I found B & A Plumbing here on YELP.  The receptionist on the phone was friendly & professional, Bobby called me back within 5 minutes, & came over an hour later.  He was honest up front & told me that I would be paying overtime for this evening call. He was friendly, professional, efficient, & clean!  I hope that I don't need to call a plumber again for a long, long time, but if I do, I'll definitely call B & A Plumbing again!

I was recommended by a relative. I had a backed up sink and he fixed it! He had all the right tools to get the job done. You get the feeling that he has been doing this for many years. I will be using him for all of my plumbing needs! He also charges a fair price for the work that is done.

A must if you want quality, affordable, plumbing service.. Also they have great personalities, helps with other odd jobs... Will be recommending to all contacts..

Had received a quote from another plumber for my cabin in Three Oaks.  Thought it was somehwat high so decided to get a second quote before proceeding...so glad I did!  Not only was Goodman lower but my experience from initial call to on-site completion was top-notch on all.  Nick (owner) took time to explain the issues and even though they ran into an unexpected on-site issue (I actually had a 120v water heater versus a 220v), he was able to pivot immediately and get a new unit in and install it the very next morning in time for guests arriving following day.   Could not recommend this company enough - just an honest, efficient, professional small business that always make sure they have a happy and satisifed customer whatever it takes.  Thanks to Goodman team and will be recommending you to all the other owners at Lakeside Cabins!

I've turned to bob for help with a plumbing issue twice. He responds quickly and delivers great service

We needed help with removing our toilet and replacing the wax ring, but we didn't have the tool to cut a rusty screw. They were quick to respond to my initial call and flexible with coming later the following day when my husband was home from work. They arrived on time and were done very quickly, at an affordable price. Both men were polite, friendly, and social. We will definitely be saving their number for future needs!

Our shed doors were falling from the hinges.  This was due to rain water and snowmelt rotting the wood at the base of the door and the framing around the doors.  Gus evaluated the job via pictures.  He texted me and came on a day where he had completed a job.  He was prompt, extremely courteous, and went as far to source the wood and parts at Home Depot nearby.  We were extremely pleased with the finished job.  The doors are again perfectly functional and the quality of work is outstanding.  Will call Gus for any future handy work.

Very Professional and Friendly. Competitive prices. I called Cesar that day and he came out right away.

Fast, fair and reasonable.  They replaced an ejector pump for today for 80% less than the first plumber I had out quoted me.

I manage a portfolio of properties all over Chicagoland and Jason has been our go to plumber for all our plumbing. He charges a fair price, and is always available for questions. In the last 3-4 years I've probably had him work on 40-50 homes, and have always been pleased. I've recommended him to family, and other property owners(investors), and they've always been pleased.

I called to have someone come out to repair my water softener. They made the appointment and the gentleman came out and said they do not repair water softeners and I was charged 99 dollar service fee for something they should've told me on phone He gave me a price for a new water softener which they do install. My water softener is only 6 years old I just want it repaired. Also why would I have them install new softener and them not come out to repair if I had problems with it. Very disappointed I have used Chicagoland for decades and never an issue. This is first negative experience since King bought them. I am waiting for call from manager. I do feel I should be reimbursed since I was not told on phone that they do not repair softeners

Do Not Hire this person!!!
We recently hired him for a small shower renovation. We paid him $4k and he never finished the job. We had 3 separate plumbers check his work and All of them said it was incorrect. We ended up paying someone else to finish the job correctly. He ghosted us and never responded to us after he took our money. HORRIBLE! Please Do Not Hire Him!!!

Public Plumbers was referred to us by a trusted professional in the plumbing business when we discovered a gas leak in our house. This was an emergency situation and they came out within an hour of calling. They were very professional and thorough! It took a long time because they were being very careful and making sure they got every leak. I was expecting a gigantic bill but it was reasonable, given the situation. Peoples Gas came back out to assess and said the plumbers did a great job- we got our gas turned back on. I highly recommend this business!
