I placed a call for a slow draining kitchen sink on a Friday and they came first thing Monday and routed it out and now all is fine. I have used them several times and have always been happy with them . Gorey was the tech they sent and what a nice guy!!! read more

We had a problem with a faucet and Giorey T. gave us top-notch service. He was professional, knowledgeable and friendly. We really appreciate his help today. Thank you! read more

I called for a basic Sloan valve repair. I told customer service this when I scheduled. Plumber showed up took 15 minutes to tear the toilet apart. Left and was gone for over 2 hours getting part. Plumber told me there was a line to get the part. (This is standard part and should have had on the truck.) Returned and took about 40 minutes to put back together. Did not replace the shut off because it would require building to shut down. (He did not tell me that when he said the repair.) Charged for 3 + hour ($230 hr) of labor and parts. The toilet valve was still leaking!!! I called and complained. He came back and spent about 15 minutes working on it. P. S. Plumber told me that next time I have someone shut down the water they can finish replacing the entire valve. Additional Info: The shut off that I paid for and was not installed... wrong part and worthless. Over $100, I am going to try and return. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS COMPANY. read more

I had a very good experience today with Eric with Power Plumbing & Sewer. This company was recommended to me by another plumber who couldn't take my job. I had a new dishwasher installed that was not receiving water and a new gas stove that needed its hookup altered in order to get it closer to the back wall. Eric was punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and solved these two problems and another very minor one involving plugging in my air fryer without my having to pay to install an additional outlet. Good plumbers are never cheap but you get what you pay for, and it was absolutely worth it in this case! Would hire again. read more

Power Plumbing - people you can't count on. Called their emergency line. Followed up after 1/2 hour with no call back. No one ever bothered to call back. Time was, this was a great company. Not anymore. read more

Top Line: Very professional; customer service oriented, do what they say they will; on time; James is super! Power Plumbing was recommended to me by another plumber - so I considered it a good recommendation from one professional to another. Rae and her team exceeded expectations/ Rae herself is very informative. She provided me with the info I needed to get the needed parts in advance - thereby saving me the cost of either a return trip from the plumber or the need to pay the plumber- on the clock - to pick up parts. [I went to the Faucet Shoppe on 3844 North Elston - also great service) The plumber - James - is awesome - he is knowledgable and experienced. He explained thoroughly what needed to be done, made thoughtful recommendations, and completed the work and even cleaned up after. I had multiple tasks that needed to be done; James revised them all and defined a plan to resolve every one of them. He was efficient and made sure that he did not scratch any of the fixtures (appreciate his care and consideration) Plumbers are never inexpensive, but James and Rae delivered good value [ the office staff was professional on confirming appointments. Overall, a strong recommendation for Power Plumbing read more

We had Steve, avoid at all costs. A very long and Inefficient process of replacing our toilet where we paid dearly for his trial and error. The cherry on top was the final day where he had to come back three times to fix a leak. Left saying "all set" each time, ha. read more

Buyer beware. I had an appointment. My appointment was confirmed. Ninety minutes into the arrival window they called to say sorry they could not make it... could I wait till Monday? Super unprofessional. read more

Great plumbers and I use them all the time, and I recommend Not cheap but they are trustworthy read more

Had a good first phone call with Robin concerning my project. Talked for about 15m. Said the estimator will call. Never heard back from them, and never replies to several of my emails. "I guess business is too good, to selectively pick their customers." read more

It was a Sunday, and my tenant had water coming through her ceiling from the unit above. My regular plumber had the flu, and my backup was out of town. I called this place on a recommendation from a friend. They told me they had a guy in the field who could stop by. Fast forward -they located the leak and told me they could not fix it that day but would have to pull out the kitchen cabinets and break open the fire brick, which would take all day. Now can you pay us $1400! Their office gave me a testy call explaining that it was double time with a 2-hour minimum. No one had informed me of that before they walked into my unit. But even still that is $700 per hour. If that is double time, that means their rate is $350 per hour. I paid their stupidly exorbitant bill but will never use them again, especially since my regular plumber went over this morning and was able to unscrew the leaking pipe and replace it in less than an hour. So much for an all-day job where they have to pull the cabinets out and remove two layers of brick!! read more

Similar to other reviewers, had a good initial call (with Robin), but 2 business days later (and 2 phone calls and 2 emails), haven't heard back from anyone and have moved on to another providor. read more

All I needed was a simple disconnect/reconnect service so that I could install new kitchen countertops. I ended up paying $700+ for this. I dont know if that's the typical price for something that took 20 min each time, (so less than an hour altogether) but if that's the case then maybe I'm in the wrong business. While the plumber was here he kept replacing parts without even asking if i wanted it, and saying "oh such and such valve is normally expensive" as if he was doing me a favor. He then charged an arm and a leg anyway. Eh, technically he did the job ok, but if that's the only criteria then our standards are too low. From the moment I opened the door the guy had a bad attitude, and he would make negative comments throughout the experience. I likely won't use them again because for the price I would have to pay I'd rather not listen to someone gripe about their job. read more

Had a major leak in our service line. Contacted Power Plumbing and they got the permit from the city and completed the repairs in record time. Outstanding work and easy to work with...and the costs were quite reasonable. read more

Power Plumbing has been taking care of our homes' plumbing needs for decades now. Rae, one of the owners, is awesome with scheduling and follow-up. I enjoy our conversations whenever I call. Every time one of the team comes out, they are professional, courteous, efficient and informative! Not only do they fix the problem, but they provide suggestions for how to prevent problems from happening again. Their estimates are right on the money, and if there is a variance, they explain why. Our most recent issue was a clogged sink and no hot water on that sink. Tony took care of it quickly while also showing me what had caused the clog and the lack of hot water. He even showed me some things that will eventually need to be replaced and did not try to upsell me that I needed to do it right then. I wholeheartedly recommend Power Plumbing & Sewer! read more

AVOID THIS BUSINESS AT ALL COSTS! After making an appointment for a camera scope for my drain, two service people came and said they I needed a trap installed which I told them ahead of time I wanted them to access before doing anything, They confirmed that a trap needed to be installed and that I need to call back and set up another appointment and they couldn't help even with time scheduled already. Also even though they didn't do a camera scope they wouldn't leave without taking $200 for being inside my home for 10 minutes without doing anything. (They charge minimum $400 for one hour of camera scope with $90 for each 15 minutes afterwards) Two other companies afterwards told me I got screwed over. Please please avoid this company and their predatory ways of service. read more

Power plumbing came to investigate a leak in my condo. They charged me over $350 for the visit and for some incredibly basic sealing that they said "might or might not fix it", telling me I needed a pipe replaced and the job would cost nearly $4,000. The incredibly high visit fee for doing almost no work besides throwing a $4k estimate at me was already off putting. I understand having a fleet of plumbers on call with vehicles etc costs something - but this was excessive. I then found another plumber to get another opinion on the pipe and was quoted LESS THAN HALF of what power plumbing estimated the same exact work at. That work has since been done, the leak was fixed, and the other "cheaper" plumber was another big and well known plumbing company with overhead for a fleet of vehicles etc - not "some guy who could do it cheaply". They fully copped to the fact that a single independent plumber could likely do it for less, etc. That other plumber did a great job at half the price power plumbing quoted me. I'd strongly recommend getting a second opinion / bid against power plumbing based on these two experiences. read more

These guys are terrific. It's easy to reach them and they are quick to respond. Scheduling was easy and they followed up to confirm the appointment the day before. Their plumbers were extremely professional and clearly knew what they were doing. They arrived on time and spread drop cloths I. The area where they were working. They actually left the place cleaner than they found it. :-) They replaced an old kitchen sink and faucet for me and helped me every step of the way - from figuring out the logistics of what size and kind of sink I needed, to having it shipped to them so they could bring it with when them came. Their plumbers also fixed a couple of issues they found in the process (such as the way the dishwasher was draining - suddenly I have cleaner dishes and my dishwasher no longer had a sour odor!) I'm hoping not to have an plumbing issues anytime soon but I'm happy to have found Power Plumbing. Highly recommend. read more

We had our spigot replaced with Power Plumbing. Despite having good work done by them in the past, they royally screwed up this time. The plumber they sent did not solder a joint well in our basement ceiling and it created extensive damage. Do not allow PP to send Steven Gross to your home!!!! read more

Angel arrived on time, evaluated the problem with my leaking toilet, and gave me the reasonable fix as opposed to the $1,000 unnecessary one. He even repaired my other toilet which had issues with flushing and the water filling up the bowl. I would totally call Power Plumbing again and request Angel. Reasonable prices and quality work. read more

I had an issue with my shower that I thought needed a valve adjustment. Huge project, removing tiles on the wall and cutting into wall for access. Ugh!! Tony came out, diagnosed the problem and was tenacious on getting a solve without having to cut into the wall. Viola, we needed to replace cartridge and blow out some clogs in the piping!! Shower works better than ever! This saved me hundreds of dollars and aggravation. This company has impressed me so much! They are honest, reliable and the communication I received leading up to the appointment was world class!! Thank you to Tony and Power Plumbing! Big fan now, I will tell all my friends! read more

Great service and fair price for quality work. Would definitely recommend. Thank you, Tony.

Never have been let down! Rae and her crew are the ultimate in professional plumbers! You get what you pay for in life read more

I had some minor work to move a vent pipe in order to open up my kitchen. Power Plumbing came out to check the pipe, gave me an estimate and were easy to schedule with. The guys that came out did a fantastic job, were done faster than expected and were even able to reuse some of the materials, always good in a time when costs can be out of control. There was a minor issue with billing, but the team at the office worked extremely hard (even with the holidays approaching!) to make it right, which as a new customer felt great. I'm pleased with the work and excited that I can now use my kitchen the way I want! read more

Winner and still champion, Power Plumbing. They've saved that day yet again for our home with little to no pain and not a ton of dough. Yes, they charge more than some, but using union work that lasts and is done professionally and with expertise comes with a price. But the long term outcome with a job done perfectly, pays for itself. A very professional office staff and plumbers. Thank you! read more

I had a lousy experience with Power Plumbing. Here's why: 1. The Power Plumbing team found that the main line was clogged with tampons and this was the main issue. However, I had another clog happen 1 week later, so I called out another service (I couldn't afford another $1K) that rodded the line (for 1/4 of the Power Plumbing price) including a camera scope and they found a collapsed drain line. 2. The other plumbers that came out the 2nd time said the 1st rodding was not a great job, as there were still tree roots in the pipes. So I'm lead to believe the 1st job wasn't done thoroughly. 3. The Power Plumbing team couldn't have been at the house for longer than 2-3 hours and it cost over $1K--and the main issue wasn't figured out or fixed. I kind of understand charging a flat fee, but this is a ton to pay for a mediocre rodding service without identification of the solution. 4. They mentioned that there's tons of sediment, but my other plumber totally disagrees and I basically see the base of the catch basin, so I'm not sure about this either. Overall, I would not recommend this service. read more

The best plumbing company ever. These plumbers are amazing. Always on time. Knowledgeable and priced right. I've referred them to everyone.

I first found Power Plumbing years ago while I was in the middle of a plumbing emergency; I went with them for the simple reason they were able to send someone out. Turns out, this entire company is terrific. Every time I call them, they're responsive, they confirm appointments ahead of time, and every plumber I have worked with has been professional and efficient. They recommend fixes that don't cut corners but also don't do unnecessary work. I recommend Power Plumbing to everyone I know. read more

Installed 15k flood control system 6 years ago, have flooded every year since. First time power plumbing came out to check, they said we didn't service annuals so our fault. Fair enough, had serviced. Next time said there was stick blocking flap, our fault again, paid 300+ to service. Next time the outdoor extension cord they ran from pump to outdoor outlet wasn't working and they said we should have had it hardwired, our fault again. They reconnected cord, said pump working fine, and I have electrician scheduled to come in the next week. Flooded again. 3 days after power plumbing came out to service. Checked the pump they told me was working fine 3 days ago and it's not working at all. I'm sure they'll say it's my fault again. If you want to pay tens of thousands of dollars to continue to flood, power plumbing is your place. read more

Power Plumbing & Sewer - Basement - Plumbing Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The scheduling and service were great. The person calling to collect the payment was extremely rude. I had the service on 6/28 for an emergency repair. The scheduling process with Paul and the service from Erik were both great. Erik explained everything to me while he's on-site and the job was finished on the same day. On 6/30, I called Power Plumbing to get the invoice, so I could pay. The person answering the phone was polite and told me that they haven't caught up all the paper work yet and they will send me the invoice once they have. Today (7/28) 2:04pm was when things went downhill, I received a call with "I'd like you to pay the bill. Your credit card info?" as the opening. Without given proper explanation, I was baffled and explained that I didn't receive the invoice. The person was very impatient and responded with they already sent it. I check with them on the email address they sent to. They wouldn't say and only asked me to provide my email again. I did that and the person again urged me to provide my credit card number with bad tone. I took the time to review the bill and asked some questions. After I got the answers, I paid the bill. To me, the bill paying experience was a terrible one. I'll think again before I use Power Plumbing & Sewer in the future. read more

I had two issues...the pipe connecting my gas range was corroded, so I had a gas leak, and all the lines under my kitchen faucet were leaking. Gabriel and Pat showed up and within an hour all was fixed. Properly! These guys were so nice, so quick, and so knowledgeable. The price was insane. In a good way. As president of our condo board I've decided we will use them going forward for any and all plumbing issues. If you want smart, good people, call these guys. They absolutely made my day. read more

Had a great experience... From working with Rae to schedule and follow up, to James who was great...personality, knowledge and ability. Two other plumbers couldn't fix my problem. James didn't hesitate to dig in to the problem. Worked efficiently and explained everything to me. My problem is solved and I have a new company to go to for future work. read more

I called to schedule an appointment to fix a toilet. I explained that I had a wall hung toilet repair and was told that they couldn't guarantee they could fix it. Then was told they would call when they are on their way, which I declined because I needed an appointment for a future time, because it was a rental and I can't just show up without notice. Also I am a working professional and need to have notice myself. I asked if we could set up a time for a future date and they said, sure we'll call you back to set up an appointment, bye. So you can't be sure you know how to fix my toilet, and you refuse to make a future appointment? No thanks I'll happily go elsewhere read more

James! I can't thank you enough for your quality and expertise. He's been on a journey with our kitchen sink. 1. He thoroughly examined every aspect of our problem. 2. He offered effective solutions. 3. He clearly and patiently walked me through what my leak problem was and how it was going to get fixed. 4. Always on time. 5. Good nature and personality. 6. Very Covid safe and protective. I truly can't thank him and the receptionist at power plumbing enough for helping us. Do yourself a favor and hire this company. read more

We needed our kitchen sink faucet replaced. Power responded promptly and had a tech out on our schedule. James arrived on time, did a great job and was helpful and very friendly. While I'm hoping not to need plumbing help anytime soon, if I do I'll certainly be calling Power Plumbing. read more

Always responsive, reasonable prices, and I do believe they try to save you money where they can, happy to not need plumber so often, but when I do it's nice to have them in the neighborhood. read more

Promptly responded to our after hours emergency! Our plumber, Angel, took time to review and explain the problem and fix it. Then he made sure we were able to get the space back to normal (helped move washer, dryer and get water cleaned up). He then even went with us to confirm that our downstairs neighbor (who had been affected by the problem) felt confident in the solution. Angel lived up to his name! I will definitely use Power Plumbing again and highly recommend! read more

I had a plumbing emergency with a burst pipe at 2 in the morning, called them and got operator 7 (she would not give me her name) and she was incredibly rude and not helpful, she told me to stop talking when I was just asking questions, I hope the actual plumbers are more professional but honestly this woman gave me one of the rudest customer service experiences I've ever had. Update: I was told a tech would call me with pricing and an ETA, no one has ever called. This was 12 hours ago. read more

Kitchen sink blocked. They squeezed me into their schedule. Tony the Plumber...lovely man. He worked promptly to solve the problem. Soon enough he unblocked the pipes (20-25 ft from sink) and we're back in business! Thanks Power Plumbing read more

long-time customer. Power has helped us out many times over the past 20 years (or so). Quick response. Problems solved. Reasonable rates. Lots of experience with Old Style Chicago homes, like our 100+ year old bungalow. read more
