I've finally found a plumber I trust! I needed a plumber to take a look at strange water hammer noises in a house I own and rent-out. Michael was able to get out there and diagnose the problem, work with me to help me understand the issue, make a recommendation that made sense to me, and then get my approval to remediate the problem. Problem fixed. Next plumbing problem, he will get first look. Michael was easy to work with -- even by phone from far away, and his fees seemed reasonable. I'm grateful to Ibbotson for recommending him. read more

Dave was the person that handled our job. Showed up at the appointed time and got right to work. Replaced a ruptured silcock and installed a shutoff valve upstream. I pointed out another minor issue we had and he took care of that for me as well. All for a very fair price (I had called another company first that quoted me about double). Would highly recommend! read more

I highly recommend Michael Paul Plumbing! Mike was very friendly and explained in detail what was occuring with our drain that was clogged. His team identified the problem and were able to rod the line quickly and get things moving again. A trusted plumber with great prices and quailty work! read more

I think very highly of Michael Paul Plumber and his team. Dave came to the house to rebuild our Toto toilets x3 and help with another fixture that has been loose. He was efficient and cleaned up really well after the job was completed. Easy to schedule with Michael and their pricing was very reasonable. I felt they were transparent and honest! read more

We would highly recommend Michael Paul Plumbing in Arlington Heights. He came out within hours when we really needed help. He was recommended to us by Ibbotson. Ibbotson installed a water heater and there was a leak in one of our pipes. Michael Paul was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and reasonably priced. He took the time to explain everything and made the whole situation much less stressful. I would highly recommend Michael Paul Plumbing to anyone in need of reliable service. We will definitely be using him again for any future plumbing needs. read more

Responded quickly; very knowledgeable in finding the source of trouble and taking care to correct it. Michael Paul Pluming provided thorough and friendly service. read more

Michael Paul Plumbing offer's competitive prices to install a toilet. They also offer free estimates. Clarify if you want an estimate prior to arrival. A service call is $70 plus an hourly rate of $140. This was not disclosed when I called to make the appointment. All other Journeymen disclosed their hourly rate. Michael Paul's employee provided quality service. read more

We have used this company multiple times and are SO very happy with them every time. They respond right away, are easy to communicate with, are efficient, and are very reasonably priced. VERY HIGHLY recommend! read more

They are very professional and responsive. Affordable pricing as well. I would highly recommend!

Michael Paul plumbing came over today and did a difficult job. He did a great job and is very personable and cleaned up nicely. I would easily recommend him. read more

Mike Paul's technician arrived promptly and was very professional. He could not repair the issue and referred me to another company. The issue that I have is technician was here for about 30 minutes and ultimately turned a valve off. I was charged $210. When I called the owner to verify this cost, he informed me that the service call is $70 and each hour is $140 thereafter with a one hour minimum. So effectively, a service call is $210 with $140 every hour after. At no point was I told anything about these prices and the lack of transparency is extremely frustrating and seems somewhat dishonest when charging such high initial rates. When pressed, the owner did not seem too interested in retaining me as a customer. There are better options out there. read more

I knew Michael 20 years earlier when he apprenticed for my prior plumber, before I moved away. I also know he has a background in safety inspection. I heard about his business from my trusted HVAC contractors I've used for 40 years, Ibbotson. Ibbotson's told me they wouldn't do the gas leak plumbing. The manager at Ibbotson's told me that he uses Michael for his own personal plumbing jobs. For the first job I needed in my new old house in July 2023, Michael had the right (expensive) gear to find gas leaks before I moved into the house. He replaced an out-of-spec 70 year old gas valve and pipe feeding the furnace line and tightened another leak near the dryer, all done quickly with parts and labor priced below my expectation. In January, 2024, Michael fixed a faucet that completely shut down. He drove and got parts from a nearby supplier, replaced the stem, tightened up a different shower faucet handle that had slop. All the work on this visit were done at a price for parts and materials below what I think another outfit would charge. read more

I'm so glad a friend of mine referred me to Micheal Paul Plumbing! As someone who knows little to nothing about plumbing I am very happy I found someone who I can trust. He recently helped me to fix a problem on my own and didn't even have to come out:) And considering I live in an older building I do foresee needing their services in the future. Highly recommend!! read more

Water heater replaced. Fast, good service. Price seemed reasonable for the amount of work.

During the summer of 2019, we developed a leak in our master bathroom shower that caused damage to the ceiling on our first floor. We called Michael Paul Plumbing based on recommendations from several people on local social media groups and they came out within 48 hours and fixed the problem. A year later, the leak reoccurred. This time, Mike, the owner, came out to inspect and correct the problem. The issue is actually caused by a weak subfloor that will eventually require a carpenter. In the meanwhile, Mike corrected the leak, allowing us time to address the larger structural issue. He refused any payment, standing behind the warranty on the earlier work of his crew. This kind of professionalism and integrity is refreshing and very much appreciated! I highly recommend Michael Paul Plumbing! read more

Ejector/Sewage pump replacement. Dave came out and did the whole job under an hour and was professional and courteous! Excellent work, highly recommend. read more

Had a leaky valve/flange at the water main - job was done quickly, courteously, and the invoice at the end didn't break the bank. The job has been finished for over a week and still no leak! Great experience - will hire for all plumbing needs! read more

Quick response for a tricky drain pipe issue in a double vanity. In and out quickly with a more than fair fee!

Mike and his team are very professional and courteous. They work hard to solve your problems and deliver. Would not hesitate to call the next time I need help. read more

Can't say enough good things about M P Plumbing. Mike is extremely courteous, professional, and thorough. Replaced my hot water heater in no time (as well as helping us through the morass that was our extended warranty replacement). Mike will get all our business and those of friends and family alike in the community. Great professional! read more

I had David out to fix a plumbing leak behind the wall in our sink. He did an excellent job, was fairly priced and was very clean and efficient I would highly recommend them in the future read more

I have used Michael twice and I highly recommend him. Not only is he a great plumber but he is very prompt, fairly priced and very clean. His service is top notch. read more

After all the rains in the past few days we had major water backing up in our drain to the sump pump and leaking into our garage. We got MIke's name from a friend and called him on a Sunday night with the hopes he could come out on Monday. He showed up Sunday night in less than an hour, pumped all the water out, diagnosed and fixed the problem and didn't charge us a fortune for an emergency Sunday night call. Service was top-notch! We will definitely use him again if we ever need plumbing services! read more

doesn't stand by their work and doesn't honor manufacturer's warranty that they installed.

Michael Paul Plumbing is a pleasure to work with. We are preparing our house for sale and our buyers had some major requests after the inspection. Mike was nice enough to look at the pictures from the inspection report and provide an estimate via email. There were a couple of false starts on our end when the sale was in jeopardy, but when we were finally ready to schedule the work they were able to give us an appointment on short notice. Clean, professional and clearly takes prides in their work, plus work came out under original estimate. Call Michael Paul next time you need a plumber! read more

I'm a general contractor who has used dozens of plumbers during my 30 years in business, and I am very happy with Mike's service. He is very knowledgeable with correct plumbing practices (and fills in for some municipality's plumbing inspectors from time to time), his quality is excellent, pricing is good, and I've found him flexible and easy to work with. I would recommend Mike without question. read more

Don't let one bad review taint your opinion. I have had Mike at my house several times. My house was built in 1959 so it presents its fair share of challenges to just about every contractor that has walked in to my house. More importantly than fixing the problem, I would always appreciate it when someone explains it to me. Mike did just that. I don't always entirely understand how it works, but that's why I call him. Dependable, courteous, prompt, and a definite problem-solver. I had a brand new on-demand hot water heater installed by them and I have had several other contractors in my house that have positively commented on how tidy and well-done Mike's work truly is. It is a joy to see someone passionate and who takes pride in their work. Recommended every day of the week and twice on Sunday. read more

I was new to the area when we first met Mike. We had just bought our house and it needed major renovations! In the last year and a half we've worked with Mike to remodel our kitchen and two bathrooms. I met with 3 plumbers before I met Mike, but Mike ultimately got our business because he gave honest and thorough explanations about what work needed to be done and our various options. Mike is not the cheapest plumber around, but I was very confident in the quality of his work. Now that our remodels are finished, I'm thrilled with how Mike handled the whole process....he was prompt, reliable, courteous, and everything works beautifully! I've already recommended Mike to my neighbors and I'll continue to recommend him to my friends. read more

The worst attitude towards service ever. Arrogant. Couldn't even properly install a brand new toilet without leaking. Had him back once to repair, and when called the second time, a real fiasco. Dont do it! read more

The best Plumbing company I have ever dealt with. Quality, Clean, Pricing and Honesty. The traits I look for in folks hired to do work on my home. Mike quoted me via phone and came out fixed it with no other BS that I typically get from other contractors when they start a project. He also found another small problem and fixed it. Solid all around and highly recommend... read more

Mike did a great job on both my office and in my home! Very quick to respond and come over to save the day! I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a great plumber! read more

Mike was so great, very efficient and professional. We found a gas pipe leak in our basement on Friday at 4 pm. We were to leave on our vacation that evening. I called over 15 plumbers. All of them would not come out until Monday or Tuesday. I finally found Mike's company around 5 pm. He came over in half an hour to fix the pipes. He checked everything to make sure that it was all fixed. Mike gave us a great vacation, not having to worry about the gas leak and able to take our vacation as planned. We, definitely, will call Mike again and again in the future. read more

I heard about Mike from a neighbor and called him when my main sewer connection backed up. I left a message which was promptly replied to. He took my information and said that he wasn't too far away and that he would stop by on his way home. Approximately 30 minutes later Mike showed up and inspected the main sewer and house connection and determined that it needed to be power rodded. He got everything up and running for us in no time at all. I have to say how impressed that both my wife and I were with Mike. His service was excellent and he was polite and personable and left the work site clean. We will most certainly call Mr. Paul again for any future plumbing services and will highly recommend him to others. Thanks Mike! read more

I called mike on a Saturday afternoon because I had water coming out of my kitchen sink. He came to my house pretty fast and found the problem quickly. My sewer pipe broke on the outside of my house. He showed me it and did a quick fix to get me through the weekend and came back on a Monday to fix it. He had to dig up the side of my house and replace the pipe but when he was done you couldn't even tell he did any work at all. He gave a great price and I have all the trust in him and recommend him to everyone that needs a plumber; he knows his stuff and he's also such a nice guy. My wife liked how clean he was because it was nasty sewer water that he was working with. read more

Mike has done multiple jobs at our house. He is very respectful, professional, and efficient. He even came out on Thanksgiving day to help with an urgent problem. Needless to say, he saved the day. I don't think any other plumber would text you back on Thanksgiving. Highly recommended! read more
