He's was on site operating the excavator and fully responsible for apprentice Nikodem Zaremba, a 27-year-old worker that he left seven feet under ground. They were fixing a residential water line damaged during excavation when the trench's walls collapsed, crushing him fatally in December 2022 at a Buffalo Grove work site.

They were an hour late to come for an estimate. Ok. They charged $49 for the estimate. A little…read moreunusual but also OK. I decided to have them do the work and I scheduled a day and time. When they didn't show up, I called them and they forgot about me. No problem! They said they would be at my house in 45 minutes. They never showed up and never called. I never heard from them again. They were quick to take my estimate money but they are unreliable and definitely unprofessional. They have no work ethic and I recommend avoiding them. You won't know if they will show up and I'm sure you won't know what kind of job they will do.

Usually, I dont do reviews, but I have to post and rave about Eugene…read more 1. Responsive time was within 10 minutes 2. He quoted me a price for one of my showers that wasn't draining, and I asked for a $20 discount, which he agreed(price is super reasonable) 3. He said he would arrive between 6.30pm and 7.00pm( He arrived at 6.45pm).. Punctual 4. Fixed the problem, then proceeded to check all the other bathrooms and sinks to make sure everything was draining properly for no extra charge. 5. Paid him the original price he quoted for a job well done; he sent a text 1 hour later saying I overpaid him by $20( discount) and would zelle it back( Honesty) All these qualities are rare to find nowadays... I highly recommend him for all your plumbing work..My new go-to guy..Thank you Eugene..

Would not recommend! We had a kitchen remodel with new…read morecountertop and new sink installed. Needed the sink pipes to be reconnected professionally. Eugene did an ok job as the pipes are reconnected and working. Since he was here, we needed shut off valves replaced as they were leaking. Eugene got them replaced. After he left, we discovered another shut off valve that needed to be replaced. Called Eugene back for this and he was willing to come back for this but that would take time. As we didn't want to wait, we had someone else come in. This second plumber noticed Eugene's work on valve replacements were not done properly. Eugene only replaced the front knob part of the valves when he should have replaced the entire valve and charged for full parts and labor. NOT very professional. I'm now not even sure if he is licensed? I usually don't write reviews but thought I should let it be known. Additional remark Greedy? You didn't properly replace the valves. Only replacing the front knob part, which is what you did, solves the immediate leak problem, but the whole valve should have been replaced to prevent any further problems. How is that greedy?

John was very quick to reply to initial call and his schedule allowed him to come within days of my initial request. He gave me a specific time when he would arrive, and he actually arrived at that time. He worked quickly, quietly, since I work from home, this is important to me. His pricing is very reasonable. He even offered to show me how to do the fix, if I wanted the DIY project! After he was done, he explained his work, made a recommendation on additional issues in the ceiling and how I could do them myself and then he swept the floor and cleaned the counter! John is just a nice guy and he is my go-to for anything with plumbing. THANKS JOHN!!!!

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!

I believe in good service and when I receive it, I always tell/refer others. My Mom's kitchen water pressure was very low. She called her home warranty company who sent out a technician. 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. Well Mike and his team went to my Mom's house that Saturday and were able to resolve her water pressure 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. Job well done!!!

Chuck was the 3rd plumber I called for an estimate to remove a cap from my front sewer. I was 15…read moreminutes late to my appointment- by God's grace, when I arrived Chuck had already pulled the cap out the sewer- no digging required as the prior estimates had quoted$$$ (I was sooo full of joy- the other 2 well known plumbers in Berwyn were obviously trying to take advantage of my circumstance) Chuck was honest, reasonable, and knowledgeable. And when he put the snake in the sewer it was evident that the plumber who supposedly roded my main line (approximately 1 month ago) deceived me by stating that he had rodded my main line from the catch basin to the street. Chuck pulled wipes and roots, not to mention other junk- Chuck conducted Hydro Jetting and I was very satisfied with his work (Thanking God). The jetting even assisted with clearing of the backed up junk in my catch basin, which had been cleaned a month ago and now had filled up with junk due to the poor rodding from the prior plumber (a month ago). I appreciate Chucks integrity and hope that he is a blessing to others as he was to me. I definitely recommend him...6 thumbs up!
