Best Frozen Water Pipes in Chicago IL

I had a great experience with John Baethke and Son Plumbing. Dan Lowery came out and diagnosed all of my plumbing issues, gave me multiple solution options, and finished my primary job within a few hours. He was awesome - could not have been happier with Dan's service. We still have a second job to do in a few weeks and I look forward to working with him again.

I trust this company to get the job done. Today’s worker was very polite and professional. The prices were a bit high even after the discounts. However, the worker knew what he was doing and unplugged my toilet in 15 minutes. I was so impressed. Thank you for a job well done. I would recommend and call the company again.

Easy to schedule, quick. Fixed my problem. Rocket Plumbing is my go-to plumber

I live in a 100 yr old building and we are slowly replacing the old galvanized pipes that are at the end of their life. I quoted with several well established, and well reviewed companies in Chicago and Chicago First Plumbing provided the best value. We have used them already to change two sections of the pipe and both times the work was professionally completed to our total satisfaction, not charging more than the original quote even though the work both times included valves and elbows not originally in the scope of the project. I highly recommend them.

We've hired them twice now. There wasn't any problem with the guys' professionalism, attitude or the work they did. Be aware though, that they charge a flat rate determined by the job to be done. Since any two jobs are not necessarily, completely identical, you might end up paying for 2 hrs of work when only 30 min. was needed.

These guys are the best! Very professional and knowledgeable on major plumbing issues and repairs. Juan and his team are awesome these guys installed a double flood control system This was a seamless install, after the job was completed everything was cleaned up! job well done.

Did great work! Unclogged sewer main and tightened loose pipes, no complaints!

I would like to thank Jeremy and Don for a job well done in repairing our catch basin today. They were on time, efficient and kept me in the loop on everything they had to do. Great job!

They do great work. Very personable.
Keep you updated on progress. Would recommend person for other peoples business.

After calling Apex about my hot water heater breakdown, Chas arrived within 30 minutes and quickly diagnosed the problem and walked me through multiple options (including time & pricing) for repairs and replacement, all to be completed the same-day. After answering all my questions and agreeing on the best solution (installing a new water heater), Chas completed the project as quickly as possible and stayed at my home long enough to fully test the new hot water heater’s operation and all aspects of the installation, explaining every part of the process along the way and obtaining my approval first before making a minor and low cost change to the initial plan. Chas made sure to leave my home as clean (really cleaner) as when he arrived, and the final cost was almost exactly the same as the original estimate. I’m a very satisfied customer and will definitely use Apex for future plumbing projects.

Excellent service!

They did a nice job replacing my kitchen sink faucet and bathroom vanity all in one day. They went to get some extra parts that I failed to provide.

I chose Savior plumbers based on the multitude of positive reviews. They didn’t disappoint. A few days ago they installed a new water line quickly and professionally. They went out of their way to keep the area clean which I appreciated. They answered a few other plumbing questions I had. They were really great. I will use them anytime I need work done.

Review for c and j
They ruined my ceiling and refuse to accept responsibility.
As you can see from the pictures: before they came (first one), I had sent a picture to my handyman to ask him to sand, spackle and paint (a $150 job). Now, someone has to come cut out my ceiling and replace the plaster (a $2,500 job).
The guys who came were very nice and proceeded to rod our toilets but when they went to do the one upstairs, they didn’t drain the tank or the bowl (gallons and gallons of water) so, when they moved it to get at the drain, water went all over the bathroom floor into every crack. My wife saw toilet water running down the ceiling and kitchen walls below and went to ask what was happening (thank god she saw it). Only then did they ask for towels and start to mitigate how much water had gotten away from them. By then, the damage was done. Now we have several cracks in our ceiling and one is a hazard- the light doesn’t work and it looks like it could fall down at any moment. At first the ceiling didn’t seem so bad but after the water settled in and soaked the plaster over the course of a week or so, it was clear real damage had been done. I contacted the owner and he denied all responsibility (and wasn’t nice about it either- refused to come look at, said they’d done nothing wrong), he even said it was there before from something I did. Well, there’s clearly a difference between what was there before and after his guys did the job. I would have my insurance cover it but it’s smaller than my deductible.

I’m fine with the bill for the original service being $500 more than I was quoted. If the crack in the ceiling was a simple spackle and paint job as it was before, I would be fine with that too. I just would have liked them to accept responsibility and use their insurance to cover their mistake. That’s what insurance is for.

Incredible service and unbeatable price. I've been a homeowner for 40 years (three different places), and rank Garrity among the best providers I've experienced. He installed a new water heater for much less than the competition, did it professionally, with excellent communication, and everything as explained up front. I couldn't be more pleased (and impressed).

Excellent work, very reasonable price and he arrived about an hour after he called. No charge for same day service. We are very happy and not sure how it could gone any better.

I've used their services twice and both times have been smooth and easy. They are SUPER fast to respond via the Yelp interface and if you call them they will connect you with a technician within the hour. In both cases, we had someone out within either an hour or two for an assessment. The latest call was for a kitchen sink emergency and Gabriel was out within 2 hours, made the assessment super quick, explained the issue and solve very thoroughly, and was back the next morning to fix everything. He was done within an hour -- sooner than expected -- and was careful to clean up any debris from the job and left the space better than he found it. Highly recommend Captain Rooter and Gabriel!

Basement drain backed up. Jim explained the options clearly, and the practical feasibility and limits on the effectiveness of each. Each option had its own price. He did both and charged me only for one. He's a third generation business owner and it shows in his professionalism, honesty, and respectfulness. Happy customer here unequivocally recommending Northwest Plumbing Co!

Very careful and complete work. Solved all of the problem

We had a very bad experience with Ashland Plumbing when Ron came out to connect a refrigerator water line and check a seal on a toilet. At Ron's suggestion we also replaced all of the inner mechanisms in the toilet tank (flappers, valves, et cetera) on two Toto toilets as a preventative maintenance measure. Turns out after connecting the fridge, Ron never turned the water back on. After we figured this out and turned the water back on, we discovered that the connection Ron made leaked. Also, the toilet that was working fine when Ron arrived, was now running non-stop since the replaced the innards. We had him come back out and he charged us for fixing his error with the refrigerator and the toilet. They also charged not just for the time he was here, but for the driving time from their shop. Less than $150 in materials and $900 in labor. When we objected to the fee for the second service trip, they were very argumentative, rude and unaccommodating. Be aware that they will start charging $166/hour when they get in their vehicle and not when they arrive.
