Best Plumbing Repiping in Chicago IL

I definitely felt as if I was being taken advantage of by folks who assumed I was a young kid who doesn't know anything about plumbing (and in fairness, they aren't far off--I am a young kid, and I have a very limited knowledge of plumbing).

I was quoted $900 for a very simple shut off valve replacement, and I overheard the plumber talking about selling services to me while on the phone with his supervisor. It's a $10 part and maybe 15 minutes of work. While I understand that applicable services are recommended after a diagnostic is run, and I obviously understand that you need to make your money, I really don't appreciate that language being used. A plumber is here to help fix a problem, not to up-sell me on some kind of service agreement.

The bottom line is that you can find someone more honest at a better price. My plumber was very kind to me and helped me to understand the problem at hand, but I certainly felt like I was being taken advantage of. The value is just not there, and it seems to me that they're valuing money over helping clients.

Very professional, extremely helpful.

Matt came out to rod out my main sewer line, he got out all of the tree roots causing the clog, he was friendly and professional, explained everything to me and picked up after himself, pricing seemed reasonable, I'll definitely be coming back to this company for any future plumbing needs, and I would recommend them to everyone

Thanks for supporting the Bears! Best plumbers in the world!

Have happily used Apex for about 10 years Always on time, clean and professional. Family business ! Friendly and easy to work with.

Called them on October 14th with an emergency.
My sewer line was clogged.
Jeremy came out a few hours later and rodded out the main.
Took a couple of tries but got it cleared.
Jeremy cleaned the area and left.
Will definitely use them again in the future.

Called All Star Plumbing & Sewer the morning after Thanksgiving to take a look at our sump pump that was misbehaving. Set-up an appointment for the next day. Mike came and replaced our pump and hydro jetted our main sewer line to the street as it was also blocked. He even solved a problem with our laundry sink that I assumed was just the nature of the sink. Was given options and prices for what could be done along the way and Mike explained what was happening throughout. Easy and friendly to work with. Hope I don't need a plumber again in the near future but if I do I will not hesitate to call them again.

The team at Avantel Plumbing recently installed a new garbage disposal in my kitchen and I was very pleased with their work. They were knowledgeable, professional, and completed the job in a timely manner. I would definitely use their services again.

We had a backed up drain and Bob was out to clean it out. What was supposed to be a routine job turned into a nightmare. He came in and a few minutes into it he stared there was a problem. His tool was stuck in the pipe, and we may have to open the wall. This being a newly remodeled unit this was not what we wanted to hear. He proceeded to try and retrieve it for a few hours, Jesse came out and we discussed options. One was to cut and leave the tool in the drain or we cut open the wall and pipe to retrieve it. They would then patch the pipe but we would be responsible for the repairs. I explained that this was not the best situation for me but what else can we do. Without a bathroom the unit could not be occupied. So we vacated and let them do their work.
We set up to open the wall and they cut the pipe out make their repair and it was to be done. Or so I thought. During the process they left the faucet open and all would’ve been fine but the repair they may leaked just as if it was a second faucet. It was a copper pipe and rather than sweat (weld) they installed this make shift sleeve and never tightened it. The unit was flooded and worse of leaked to several units below. We were able to dry out the unit and With the patching that had to be done it was like redoing a bathroom all over and they did not pay for any of it.
To make matters worse our neighbor got the grunt of of the water in her bathroom and it needed repairs. I spoke with Jesse and explained that things happen and we will make do with our unit but the neighbor needs to be covered by them. I expected to be able to preset the neighbors repair invoice and have no problem I felt it was reasonable and having paid for all other work out of pocket I felt this was the least Captain Rooter could do. Since presenting the invoice I have had nothing but radio silence. It’s unfortunate as I believe that all the cost should’ve been Captain Rooters but for the sake of putting this behind me I only asked they cover the neighbors damage.
I chose to share as this in hope that before they are considered for a project I relay how they performed for me. I believe it says a lot about a company by how they handle problems with their clients. I am not sure how to share pics or videos here but I’d love to share as I believe they paint a picture of the quality of work.

Stay healthy.

Got the whole house repiped. They did an outstanding job, couldn't be happier, best money we've ever spent.

Victor was great! He was very responsive and squeezed us in last minute. He changed out and fixed our kitchen faucet. While there he did a few extra things without a concern and was very helpful! Would recommend him and use him again!

Mike recently replaced the kitchen sink faucet in my home. I am very satisfied with the install. It was done very efficiently. He arrived on time and maintained a high level of professionalism. It is greatly appreciated that he takes following COVID-19 protocols seriously (this was a concern I had with having someone enter my home, but this was not a problem at all with Mike). I highly recommend this plumber and I look forward to working with him for any future plumbing needs.

Very professional, knew exactly what they were doing. Cleaned up afterwards and left area almost like they were never here.
