I hired Mark to address an outside gutter drainage issue with a catch basin and fix broke concrete…read morein our yard. Mark outsourced the concrete work to another team that did an absolutely horrendous job. The end result was a flooded basement and drains that were filled with cement and fully blocked. I reached a contractual agreement with Mark to fix this botched work, and even discounted my cost to fix it. He has defaulted on the contract terms and not paid a single dime. Mark says there's a warranty on his work. The problem is he won't be able to cover any damage to your property and he will avoid any schedule to pay any damages. Lots of empty promises and shoddy work. So incredibly disappointed.

From drains and toilets to water heaters, catch basins and other plumbing problems/issues, in a 100-plus year old building, he always figures it out and gets the job done. And, over the years, I've had some strange plumbing needs (trust me). He's also honest and fair and what I would call a "critical thinker." Beyond me, he's also stepped up for my sister's place in Lakeview which is a more modern building but has still had its plumbing issues. Some have been normal. Some have been less than normal.

We had a problem with a leaky kitchen sink drain and were suddenly in need of some quick plumbing…read moreservices! Having hired A & T Plumbing in the past with excellent results, i called them first. They had a plumber onsite shortly who not only fixed the problem, but was able to suggest some small changes needed to bring things up to code. Everybody I spoke with worked very hard to treat customers in a cordial and professional way, and, they did everything they said they would do in a timely manner and for reasonable price. So, all in all, it seems clear that these people take customer service seriously, and that showed throughout the whole experience, from our initial call through the end of the repair. I recommend A & T Plumbng Inc & Son unhesitatingly!

Dad's a tough customer since he used to do all that stuff himself. They were great - patient, professional, efficient and got it all done quite quickly.

Dad's also hates to pay for stuff he used to do himself, but the cost was reasonable - even to dad. Planning on having them back soon to fix other stuff that dad has put off.

Mike is an amazing plumber! Despite having found him at the poopiest of times (literally), we feel…read morelucky to have found him. Recently our basement flooded with water when there was a gigantic super cell storm. Mike came to help very quickly after we reached out to him, despite being swamped with tons of other similar complaints. He quickly addressed a huge range of issues ranging from cleaning and cameraing our sewer line to closing our stack drain, fixing our flooded out water heater, helping us with our boiler and radiators (which suddenly weren't working just as it started to get cold out), and more. Mike's honest and fair. He tells you what really needs fixing, what can wait, and is able to think creatively about solutions to save money/maximize value. It feels great knowing we have an honest contractor rooting for us instead of trying to squeeze us. In a sea of overpromising, overpriced plumbers, Mike stands out above the rest. 5 star work and service for sure!

That's a story in it self. Anyway, I told her about Mike. I called Mike on a Thursday for her and asked if he provided service to her area. He said he would contact her to discuss her plumbing issue.

Talk about efficient, professional and just an all around good business....Hydro Tech it! If you need a reliable plumber, contact Mike. Mike, thanks for resolving my Mom's plumbing issue.

I do not recommend Chicago Plumbing Experts. I just bought a house with my fiancé and there was a…read morehorrible smell coming from the basement. The inspector advised us as to what the issue could be and we asked Chicago Plumbing Experts to provide a quote to fix the issue. Will diagnosed the issue as being a busted P trap. He provided a quote for $3,879 to break up the concrete around the P trap, install a new P trap, hydro-jet the drain and sewer system, and "re-concrete kitchen drain/vent line assuming line is fine." As new home owners, we thought this was a fair price and we agreed to the price and the invoice, and two guys (I can't remember their names) came out to address the issue. They were 1.5 to 2 hours late and when they arrived they were unfamiliar with what services they were to be providing. We actually had to show them our copy of the invoice so they could familiarize themselves with the job they were supposed to be completing. After about an hour, they notified us that they needed to go buy some supplies. This seemed normal, but they were gone for three hours. When they returned they told us they had to go all the way to Brookfield (from Chicago) to retrieve the hydro-jet, which was supposed to have been brought with them to begin with, according to the services listed on the invoice. Now the kitchen drain. I will accept fault for accepting the wording of the invoice. We knew the kitchen drain was NOT fine, and I assumed they would fix it once they removed the concrete and confirmed that it wasn't fine. They did not fix the kitchen drain. They removed the concrete, confirmed what the inspector had already told us, and used a towel (provided by us) to fill the gapping hole around the corroded pipe. They told us they could re-concrete the drain, but it would need to be serviced in the same way as the P trap (meaning it was going to cost us another $4K to properly fix the issue because they needed to break up the concrete, install a new pipe, and re-concrete the kitchen drain). In addition to this, they decided to hydro-jet the drain and sewer system by using the stack in the basement. They broke the cap on the stack and did not have a replacement in their truck. They told my fiancé what he needed to buy and told him where to buy it. They were about to explain how to install it, but he told them he wanted to go buy the replacement cap and have them install it before they left. They told him the cap needed to be 4 inches so that's what he bought. It turned out the cap needed to be 3.75 inches so the cap my fiancé bought didn't fit. They instead filled the hole with plastic bags and said they would come back to fix it, for an additional charge. They didn't even end up using the stack to hydro-jet the drain and sewer system...they used the catch basin in the backyard. Breaking the cap on the stack was entirely preventable. We called to complain to Will after they left two holes in our basement and he told us they would be back on Monday to put a cap on the stack and to re-concrete the kitchen drain, as discussed. They did return on Monday, but they were there for less than ten minutes to put a cap on the stack and then they left. Although they were there twice, they did not clean up their mess and I had to dispose of the extra rags and their water bottles. They did correct the issue with the P trap, but it was NOT worth it. The service was very unprofessional and overpriced. Advice for new homeowners: assume NOTHING and get EVERYTHING in writing, whether you hire Chicago Plumbing Experts or someone else. Save yourself the expense and the headache.

I reached out to AA at the recommendation of someone and I will advise against anyone using them…read morefor plumbing services going forward. Context: our building has had several main line backups over the years and we started seeing signs it might happen again (water gurgling, toilet water acting strange, etc.). So, to be proactive we contacted AA Plumber to clear and scope the line. A plumber came, hydro jetted and used a borescope to verify the line is clear. Well just a day or 2 later the toilets were gurgling and foul odors were coming up through the shower drains. So, I contacted AA and they assured us it was most likely a venting issue and is no immediate concern. Well a few days later the sewage backed up so we did end up having to call an emergency plumber. They (the emergency plumbers) were shocked that AA hydro jetted when there was no cleanout (jetting from a toilet access can cause water to flood back into the unit) also AA did not use a plumbing camera just a 9ft sink drain borescope so there was no way they verified the line was clear. Anyways the emergency plumbers believed AA either just moved the blockage down the pipe or never actually cleared the line all the way to the city sewage line (I certainly did not see them run more than a couple feet of line). After the line was cleared by the emergency plumbers (which was a premium and what I was trying to avoid in the first place by contacting AA) I asked them for some form of refund due to incomplete/unsatisfactory service but they refused to offer any reimbursement. I don't know if they are licensed plumbers and are obviously not using the proper equipment to do a quality job. I would advise anyone avoid these folks if you are looking for a plumber in Chicago, there are plenty of other options out there to choose from so find someone else.
