    New longer shower pipe and I bought one of those Magnetic shower heads.

    Josh was recommended to me by my coworker that used him when my coworker owned a building. For me, Josh has fixed a floor drain at a condo building, a pipe behind a sink and a valve behind a shower in separate occasions. He has "rooted" out a sink during the pandemic. For a different coworker, he changed out a cartridge. Always good work and fair prices. Will provide an estimate if possible over the phone. Personable guy and speaks French. Will work with condo associations.

    Last weekend we came home from a birthday party to find water in our basement sump room. After investigating, we found the active leak outside, against the house foundation, along the sewer lateral. Our general plumber advised we contact a sewage specialist. On a Saturday, we called around a few places. Josh-Rooter was very responsive and came out within an hour. Their team was friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to help us, as this was an emergency: we could not use our water and we have a toddler and dogs. They performed a quality job, quickly, on a Saturday! And for more than a fair price. I highly recommend them for urgent repairs and also routine maintenance for any plumbing and sewage needs. Very grateful to have found this company.

    They did a good job fixing our clogged bathroom sink. We were able to get an appointment fairly quickly.

When it comes to messing with gas in my home I have a no hands policy. I called Green Tech to schedule an appointment and left a VM around 6:15. At 6:45 I got a call back. The tech was calling me from his mobile while driving into the office. He literally walked me through what I had to do. "Have you ever lit a gas BBQ? Same concept." Did as he instructed and BAM, we are back in business. Green Tech could have come out and charged me an hourly, which I was willing to pay for, but instead taught an old man a new skill. This is not the first time they have walked me through an issue, hence why I call them for anything plumbing related. Can't recommend Green Tech enough.

    I can't say enough good things about my experience with Green Tech Plumbing! A can do kind of…read morecompany! I've found it increasingly difficult to find service companies that are knowledgeable in their field, responsive, honest and provide excellent customer service. Not only did Green Tech Plumbing check all these boxes, but they also offer fair pricing. A unicorn of a business. After being overcharged and underwhelmed by our previous plumber, I was on the hunt for a capable plumber to install a whole house water filtration system. From the moment I reached out to Green Tech Plumbing, they were nothing but responsive and helpful. I purchased the filtration system from a vendor, yet Kevin willingly answered all my questions (promptly!) about the system. He even pointed out that one of the options had expensive filters that would need to be changed frequently saving me hundreds of dollars in filters. What a gem! Kevin came out to look at how the system could be installed in our space and talked to me through how the system would work and answered all my questions. He then provided a fair quote. Once our system was delivered, I emailed to set up the installation. His team came out the following week for the installation. The tech Kevin sent was just as helpful! He moved the 100-pound tank from the garage to the basement, which wasn't part of their scope. The tech had to make a run to the hardware store to buy connection pieces that weren't included with system, but he knew exactly what to buy and did so in a timely manner. The install was speedy and flawless. The tech was even willing to stay while I called the vendor's water filtration system customer service expert to walk us through the start up process. On top of this great experience, I wrote a check for the incorrect amount and Kevin responded right away saying he would swing by and drop a check in our mailbox for the overpayment. Unreal! This is how you run a company!

    Nothing makes me happier than seeing people become true experts at what they do…read more This company specializes in water heaters, and it shows. A few years ago, when ours unexpectedly went out, they were like a SWAT team. They arrived quickly, cleaned everything up, and had a new water heater installed in no time. This morning, I took a very cold shower, which was not how I wanted to start my day. We discovered the pilot light had gone out. My husband tried resetting it without success, so he called them. They asked him to send a few pictures, immediately diagnosed the issue, and texted him a short video showing exactly how to reset it. A few minutes later, we had hot water again. That's what great companies do. They're prepared, they know their craft inside and out, and they make solving problems look easy. If you need a water heater, I honestly wouldn't call anyone else. Thank you for always being there when we need you.

Upon inspection, I discovered that the water heater was not functioning, as there was no hot water available in the unit. To address this issue, I contacted the RHEEM customer service number displayed on the water heater. A technician promptly returned my call and attempted to guide me through various troubleshooting steps to reignite the unit; however, these efforts proved unsuccessful. The technician ultimately suggested that a specific component had likely malfunctioned and provided me with a list of certified Rheem technicians in the Chicago area. Unfortunately, the Rheem technician I reached out to from that list did not respond to my inquiries. I have had great luck with businesses on Yelp that received a large number of favorable reviews over a long period of time. For that reason, I decided to contact Fast Plumbing 247. I was fortunate to speak with a plumber named Mac, who returned my call within a matter of minutes. He requested that I send him photographs of the water heater's model number and the unit itself. After reviewing the images, Matt promptly called me back and provided clear, step-by-step instructions on how to restore the water heater to working order. Remarkably, his guidance proved effective, and I was able to resolve the issue. Once again, the unit has hot water. What truly stood out during my interaction with Mac was not only his willingness to share his technical knowledge but also his remarkable patience. I struggle with even simple tasks of this nature, and Mac's calm demeanor made the process significantly easier. He meticulously explained how to remove the guard to access the pilot light window, advised me on the best positioning to view this awkwardly placed window, and guided me through the steps to relight the pilot light and restore the water heater's functionality. Thanks to Matt's expertise, I am able to enjoy the holiday weekend without further complications. Based on this experience with Mac, it is evident that the plumbers at Fast Plumbing 247 are not only responsive and technically skilled but also honest in their dealings. I fully intend to rely on their services for any future plumbing needs and wholeheartedly recommend this company to others.

Juan is truly one of the good guys -- honest, incredibly knowledgeable, punctual and always willing to figure out the best solution rather than simply recommending the easiest or most expensive option. Our home is 120 years old, which comes with plenty of quirks and challenges, and Elite is exceptional at working with older homes. The team has helped us find thoughtful solutions that incorporate great technology and quality products while still making sense for our house. Above all, Juan operates with tremendous integrity. After working with him for nearly eight years, he is someone we completely trust and the first person we call for anything HVAC-related. Highly recommend Elite HVAC!

Other companies were a bit cheaper with coupons, but Elite had a $99 special and I wanted to go with them, since they installed the unit. The first time the technician (Steve) came out, he wasn't able to do anything due to my building's roof drain being clogged and the roof was basically flooded. He sent me a video so I was able to send it to our maintenance people and have them come fix that issue. After the roof was no longer a swimming pool, Steve came back out a week later and presumably did everything that was needed -- all seems to be working well, and he answered a couple of my questions and gave me an estimate for an ambient kit in case I want to run the unit when it's below 60 degrees outside (my condo gets really hot and retains heat). Overall, great customer service, super nice people. I'll continue to use them for my AC needs.
