Best Pipe Repair in Chicago IL

I scheduled to have Drain-EEZ  come out and resolve an issue with a clog in the basement sink and possibly my sub-pump.

The owner of this company was accommodating of my schedule and called when he was on his way to my home.  As soon as he looked at and 'examined' my sub-pump he instructed me that I needed a NEW one.  

He and his assistant then started working on the clog and spent a good 10-15 minutes trying to unclog the basement sink.  Since they could not fix it via the basement sink, this necessitated having to cut a section of my pipe  so he could run a line that way.  Another 20
minutes later and he informed me that he could not resolve the issue and I would have to get someone to TEAR UP THE FLOOR since the pipe was so badly clogged or broken!

After hearing this and having a conversation w/my realtor, I decided to get another opinion.  I did this because tearing up the floor would have meant $1500 to 3000 dollars.  I was also very upset thinking I would have to tear up a floor for a house that was going to be sold.  

I am so very glad my neighbor recommended another plumber (I will be writing a great review for them). It took a week for this new plumber to fit me into his schedule, but it took him 20 minutes to UNCLOG the drain. He also told me there was NOTHING wrong with my sub-pump.

It's interesting that Drain-EEZ has these great reviews on Yelp, it is the only reason I contacted them.  I will say the guy was willing to assist me in getting good estimates for tearing up my floor, but these estimates would have been for work I DID NOT NEED.

His price was also double what this other company charged when nothing was resolved. Obviously he has done good work for others, but I could never recommend this plumber to anyone!

Pete and Noah were very thorough in diagnosing the root cause of the leaking kitchen faucet. Since this would be a more involved repair, they came up with a great plan to slow the leak while they hunt down a few parts to fix the issue.

Very happy with the service and will be using them again in the future!

We've used Scotty for years and absolutely love him.  He is super professional, prompt and great at what he does.

These guys are just the best. Mike came quickly (with friendly co-worker also named Mike) and did a great job. Immediately understood the issue and fixed my gutter/surface drain perfectly. Whew. Highly recommend!

Chris did an awesome job. Our old garbage disposal was leaking. Chris replace it within half an hour. Now our kitchen is beautiful and clean again.

My husband and I recently bought our first home and had a lot of issues with our basement, including bursting sewage pipes, flooding, etc. Eugene was incredibly helpful in explaining what needed to be done. He was also willing to come by on a short notice, even on weekends, and did very good work. In addition, Eugene also installed a laundry box in a unit we rehabbed, and did a terrific job. We would recommend First Chicago Plumbing to anyone looking for a responsive and highly qualified plumber.

I have been far from the most active member of the Yelp community.  But today I had the pleasure of connecting with Kevin at Sound Plumbing and felt moved to say a few kind words.  As most of you know, it's generally miserable to deal with contractors when things go wrong in your home.  You don't know where to start, you don't know who to trust, and you feel like everyone is giving you bad information.  We had some pretty bad water coming from around the shower and had Kevin take a look.  Kevin helped get to the bottom of the issue, and quickly identified the 'real' problem, even if it wasn't a problem that resulted in much (or even any) plumbing work for him personally.  I'm appreciative for people like Kevin that have such professionalism.  And while I hope for no future plumbing issues that require his services, if they do arrive I know where to go.

Jesus is my savior! But no joke. He has done major home repairs for us at a beyond reasonable price.

First experience: We didn't know what was wrong with our hot water heater, just figured it should not be blowing as much out but he was very knowledgeable and courteous about the situation as we had to ask our neighbor to get access to see where it was blowing out. Found out we had a really dangerous situation on our hands as carbon monoxide was not properly funneled out correctly.

Second experience: Thought we needed a sump pump to get out moisture in the crawl space but Jesus got to the root of the problem and found there was actually a broken pipe that needed to be excavated and re-routed. Although it could have taken him 2 days or another company 3-4 days, he and his team worked late into the evening to make sure it was all done at once and did not increase the price for the extra time and labor than we all originally thought the project would entail. He even worked with our home insurance company to answer questions in order to get a partial reimbursement!

Third experience: Minor water leak in our downstairs bathroom.. had some difficulty locating the source but fixed it rather quickly. Always walks us through the process and explains the situations and solutions, which is definitely great as a new homeowner!

Another great thing is that he is knowledgeable in so many areas that you don't need to go to different companies with different problems for your house.

Will definitely be using this company for any and all needs! Highly recommended!

Had a small clog in my toilet.  Tried using the plunger but didn't work.  Called different plumbing services, several charge for services to come out and I had to schedule time.  However, I saw good ratings on Green Tech plumbing and asked them when they can come out.  They made a quick apmt right away.  On website, they even had discount for work they do, plus they don't charge any service fee for coming out.  In about 30 minutes, a plumber named Tim came out and fixed our clogging toilet within less than an hour. Tim was nice and friendly and knowledgeable.  Would highly recommend this company for any plumbing services and will use them again if we have any plumbing issues with our house.

Midwest hydro addressed clogged tubs and sink in my property and they were great. Good communication throughout the process, very professional, and go the job completed in timely fashion. They also maintained a neutral position on what needed to get done vs items that could wait, so no over-selling to generate business.  Would hire again.

Adam is the best! Quick response time and great advice! Called late at night because pump failed and the next day by noon it was replaced. Thanks again!

These guys were amazing. I think we've found our go-to electricians for the foreseeable future. We had 5 outlets installed throughout our house and one additional line off the circuit breaker. They were reasonably priced, but more importantly, honest and didn't try to pad the bill. Darrell walked through the project with me and broke down some alternatives that could save some money... simple things like, putting the outlets in different locations to cut down on the drywall cost.

ABV plumbing did a great job. I needed a plumber they quoted a good price and Ivo came at the time that they said they would. He was very efficient and did a great job and was done in a timely manner. I will definitely use them again.

Great professional service and a job well done. Dmitry from CJ Plumbing arrived on time and had all the parts that were necessary to fix my leaky, drippy bathtub faucet and my non stop running toilet. I just moved into an old house and it's such a relief to find a good repair person who gets the job done right. They are a little pricey 250/hr but worth it. I would definitely call them again if needed.

I have had Juan come out twice to look at 2 issues. He used his camera scope to diagnose a drain issue and also installed a new sump pump for me.

All around one of the best experiences I have had with a contractor. He was helpful in sharing his knowledge. He didn't take on work where he felt it was outside his expertise. When he did the sump pump install, it was very detailed and the price was very fair.

Noel is a rock star.  He comes on time and fixes everything without a hitch.  I would recommend him to anyone who supports local businesses!!!

We had an emergency (leak) and they came out same day 2 hours after I called. The techs were courteous and knowledgeable. Price was fair. They finished up in an hour and cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommend!

I have used Vanguard for 2 different projects over the past few years. Both times the work has been excellent. They responded to my inquiries quickly and were right on time for both appointments. The work was reasonably priced and performed expertly. The plumbers were friendly and, as the second job was done during the pandemic, I was pleased with their COVID procedures. I highly recommend Vanguard.

We had a sewage back up on Christmas. Victor was SO nice and helpful and fast. He quickly responded to my message and he moved his schedule to help us sooner. We will never use another company.

He even cleaned up the mess in our basement. I mean, come on. This guy is amazing. Fully insured and bonded and lovely. He also told my husband how to help the issue in the future. I am so grateful.

Thank you, Victor!!!!

I needed doors cut after carpet install.  Job was completed within 24 hours of request and completed efficiently and correctly.  Nathan was professional, knowledgable, and prompt.
