Best Sewer Services in Chicago IL

Called late and scheduled an appointment for the next morning.  Lou investigated a water mark on the ceiling and determined it was coming from the toilet which wasn't properly seated.  Fixed within 2 hours and the price was very reasonable!  Lou was great and had a ton of tips.  Will definitely use again (although hopefully I won't have to!)

Wow, to change the leaking wax ring seal on the toilet they wanted $799.  It was hello and good bye.
Fortunately I have experience, most home owners don't.   A simple job with a newer toilet that was not leaking but needed a new seal due to very heavy person twisting the  toilet base when getting up, it happens.  I am not a handyman, just in the know.

Great service, they had someone out to my house while every other plumber in the city wasn't able to make it for a few days. They were transparent with their pricing and what they needed to do.

I found Chicago Sewer And Drain Professionals from a Yelp search. My neighbor had water leaking into her unit, and I needed help identifying what was causing the leak and fast service. I loved this company because they were highly professional and quick to respond. The owner had excellent phone etiquette and answered my call right away. I called around 6 am, and the company came out around 9 am the same day. I wasn't 100% if the company did plumbing in bathrooms because the page is marketing as sewers; however, they did. The company identified that my bathroom faucet needed to be replaced, and they would not find the exact model I already had. The faucet was replaced, and I was delighted with the service.

I'm removing a star because the price was not competitive, and I believe I was overcharged. For the level of service and quick turnaround, the control should demand a competitive price, but I was charged ~$350 for the service and $417 with parts. The company did not overcharge me on the pieces because I went to Home Depot the next day and saw comparable prices. The average cost to replace a faucet in Illinois ranges from $150-$350, and I was charged on the higher end of the estimate. Also, I was told I had two bad water valves, which would be an additional $600. I opted not to change the valves by Chicago Sewer And Drain Professionals and had another plumber come out the next day. The second company informed me that I only needed one value replaced and charged me $50. That is a dramatic price difference. Also, the second plumber told me that he could use the old knobs from my previous faucet so I wouldn't have to change the double faucet to match. I wish  Chicago Sewer And Drain Professionals would have shared that option because I discarded the old parts out.

I would recommend quick, professional service, but be aware  of their pricing model.

One of our kids flushed a foreign object and clogged the toilet. The other plumbers that I called either had high prices or just didn't show up. Windy City Plumbing not only arrived early, but they worked quickly to get the job done. They removed my toilet, fixed the clog, and reinstalled the toilet all in under 30 minutes. They also had reasonable prices and the estimate they gave was accurate. Their communication is awesome - if there are any changes to the scheduled meeting time, they will contact you, unlike the other plumbers/handymen who either come late or don't show up and don't have the courtesy to at least give you a heads up.

My wife and I now have our go-to plumbing service. Windy City Plumbing is the real deal!

I waited a few months to review the repair on our bath tub. We had the leak repaired 4 times by a few plumbers. It would not leak for a few months and start back up again. So far we have had zero water leaking. The repair cost was VERY reasonable which I can say with absolute confidence since we had 3 other plumbers come for estimates before choosing Eugene and crew. They were very curtious, cleaned up after themselves, and were on time. I would use this company again for my plumbing needs.

I set up a service appointment by phone and confirmed via text. The day of the appointment no call, no show.
I call to see what's going on ,
Oh we can be there in an hour!?
Already 2 hours late! So another hour, and they'd be showing up 3 hours after the scheduled appointment.
I can't understand how this happens with a 5 star business??

Update: I received a call to make this right and they did. So I've updated my review because they did the work for the agreed upon amount, were professional, polite and fixed the issue.

So many 5 star reviews, when I had a plumbing issue the handyman couldn't resolve I had to call. So I did and was quoted $400 (at most) parts and labor for a shower drain leak and slow constant drop from the shower head.

Fast forward to the scheduled repair day and the plumber that came was very close to the scheduled time, so that was a plus. Then I showed him hat was needed and he said the other gentlemen that came out for the estimate had already told him the same that I did.

Two hours later repairs are complete and now I'm hit with a bill over $600. When I told him the estimate was $400 at most he just said he didn't know and it would be over $600. I am disappointed he wouldn't have told me the bill would be higher the moment he knew and not hit me at the end with a big increase. Parts were $138, the total was $636. That means labor was almost $250 an hour, that is extremely high, even for plumbers.

Anyway, the repair seems to be done correctly and hopefully if there are any issues they stand by their work.

What you NEED to know is in the last paragraph. TL;DR: This is the best home services experience I've ever had in my life.

We had a clogged toilet at 3 a.m. after hosting a  New Year's Eve party at our new home. Not the ideal way to kick off 2020. Using a plunger, we were able to get the water to flush very slowly and figured we got rid of the clog.

2 days later, the toilet still wasn't working. I requested a quote on Yelp, and Mike responded within minutes. Not only was the price competitive, but Mike offered to give me free advice on how to fix the problem myself in the event that it could save me time and money.

After trying all the conventional methods (plunger, auger) to no avail, I called Mike again to schedule service. He sent Danny who was at the house within 15 minutes. Danny was incredibly polite and thorough moving from auger to removing the toilet. Having tried all standard methods, Danny let us know that he would have to bring in the power rodder and that Mike was on his way to help out. Danny laid tarp along house to wheel in the huge machine, and Mike tried to think of other ways to solve this not-so-typical issue.

They ended up going to our crawlspace and rodding the pipes through there. I'll spare the details, but after a couple hours, the problem was fixed. Danny and Mike cleaned up the bathroom and closet with crawlspace access. And the toilet flushes like new.

I can't speak highly enough of this experience. We couldn't have asked for better service and, quite frankly, didn't know home services of this caliber existed. I would never hesitate to recommend giving these gentlemen a call, even for free advice. They'll be my go-to for any future plumbing issues (knock on wood), as well as if anyone ever asks if we know a good plumber. Mike giving us a discount for finding them through Yelp was a much-appreciated bonus.

I cannot help but think that the plumbers from this company had me waste money by insisting I needed to fully replace a toilet that likely didn't need replacement. My dual-flush toilet was periodically running because the seal from the flushing mechanism wasn't good. I explained this to the plumbers and they said that I needed a new toilet. Fast forward a few years and this same problem is happening with the same model toilet in a different part of the house. I used the service Fixer and they were able to repair the toilet with a $35 replacement flushing mechanism and an hour of labor. I am upset that the plumbers here wouldn't even entertain the idea that the toilet could be repaired. Service cost me over $1000 dollars and I feel like I way overpaid for what I needed. The service they did perform was solid and everything they did worked well. I definitely recommend getting a second opinion if they are proposing an expensive solution.

I can't say enough about the service I received from ABV!  My hot water heater went out - other plumbers were giving me dates a week or more away!  Not sure how we would have showered - it's 10° outside and I think our water was even colder!  Talked with them last night and they were out here by 8:30am!  Did great work and I am looking forward to a nice hot shower

Okay, so being completely transparent, I didn't end up using them for my sink repair. But, I wanted to review just for the customer service. I called them this morning because I need to have the pipes fixed under my kitchen sink, as they're all corroded and have holes leaking everywhere. Dimitry asked me to send a picture of the issue so he could estimate it, which I did, and he called me back with a quote of $250-$275 to replace the 3 metal pipes with PVC. But, he openly said This isn't a hard job and you should just have a handyman do it, because any plumber will be way too expensive. Get a handyman who will cost $100 and you can use the savings to buy holiday gifts.

So, A+ customer service for honesty and knowing that the price he quoted me was way more than what is actually needed. If I ever need major plumbing (or heating) work done (which hopefully won't ever be the case, but life happens), I would definitely call CJ Plumbing & Heating first.

We had an issue turning on our pilot light in our hot water heater and A&Y came out that afternoon. It turned out that we were actually doing it wrong (whoops!) but they were super helpful and informative and walked me through the steps of turning it on correctly. I really appreciated how quick they were to come help out and they were incredibly prompt and kind. Thank you!

They are very fast in responding to our call and helping us out
Our condo building is very strict on having an outside plumbing to do the work but they did a great job

Wanted $250 to replace a simple stop valve for a toilet which costs at most $7 retail - at push a 10 minute job. The building even shuts off the water so would not even have to do that.  Of the several plumbers approached for quotes this was over $100 more than anyone else charged.
Edit - In highlight of your response, I did slightly exaggerate. The person was in fact here for 15 minutes (as I distracted them talking about football). So you would have charged an effective  rate of $1,000 per hour, vs the company who attended and charged $120 for 15 minutes. I'll let people come to their own conclusions on your rates.

We had issues at my moms house with water backing up into shower
Contacted Plumbing 123, and Victor responded right away, and was out in no time
Routed the shower out and sink
And now everything is working great!
Definitely will call again if there any issues

Drain works was great and responsive. They got back to me quickly and had the work completed within the week. Eric was very helpful

Bert is, no question, the BEST plumber you'll find in Chicago. Our basement was set up like most others in the city - underground lines that led to a catch basin that connected to the city lines. Also, like many, that led to flooding every time we had a major storm.

Bert and his team converted all lines to an overhead system and designed creative ways to eliminate any further threats of flooding. On top of that, when Chicago had unprecedented flooding this summer - not only did our basement NOT flood, but Bert proactively called us to make sure we were OK.

He's got it all - expertise, attention to detail, excellent customer service, and reasonable prices. Five stars all the way!

Walter has done numerous jobs at my place and I was always satisfied..until lfew weeks ago when he was scheduled to come, failed to show up, I called him said he was on his way... It was 2 weeks ago..I must have called 10 times, to no avail...
I will not work with Walter again..

I won't comment on the cost as I think most places are at least somewhat over priced. I will say that the job was done expertly and in a timely fashion.
