Expert Drain Cleaning in Downers Grove, IL

From the time our 8 unit condo building was opened in 2016, until 2023, we had zero problems with plumbing. In late January 2023, after we had just gotten home from a trip to Tupelo, our main floor (we have a “duplex down”) kitchen sink water began rising on its own from drain water from upper floor units. My wife and I were like an old-time bucket brigade, running gallons from the sink to the powder room toilet to keep the water from cascading over our cabinets and onto the floor. We had a plumber come out and run a rod from under our kitchen sink into the main drain pipe, which started a drain flow of water again. This problem unfortunately returned in October 2023 (when we were just about to leave for vacation), as well as July and September 2024, July 2025 and most recently on November 3rd. Despite previously using two different large plumbing companies, none of them could locate where our building’s main 4” drain pipe was located (using metal detectors and cameras). So effectively each time they rodded from our kitchen, they were punching a small hole into the grease blockage, with the hole slowly closing back up. So we hired Suburban Chicago Plumbing Experts this time. They not only identified the problem, but also identified where our main drain pipes were located, and then went on to create new external clean-out pipes for our building so that now any future blockages can be gotten to easily. Suburban spent three hours using unique hydrojetting equipment which has a truck-based water heater furnace to melt away all of the grease which was clogging our line. And unlike most other plumbing companies, they also have their own vacuum truck, and sucked all the grease out of our front yard’s underground catch basin. I can’t recommend enough their expertise, their specialized equipment, and their attractive pricing. A terrific combination and value.

We had a major plumbing issue in the basement of one of the properties we managed. There was a backed up sewage line and left easily a foot of waste on the floor that needed to be disposed of and sanitized. One plumber told us we had to find someone to clean it up (which was odd to me because that seems like a hazard of the job) and then we called a second plumber and he could not get past a few feet with his scope. Mike and his team was able to clear the line all the way to the street and cleaned and sanitized it in a few hours. It has held great for a few months but we need a more permanent solution that the landlord cannot afford at this time but we will be using Mike and his team to help us when the time comes.

Mike, Maro, and Alex are AMAZING!!I can't praise these guys enough! Great customer service ad great work for a reasonable price. New catch basin, new sump pump, fixed existing wall whole and re-hung outside post to the way it should have been originally! As a bonus, they empty a big waste can of my stuff! These guys did a lot of work all in one day. Thank you guys!

I have nothing but good things to say about MAS plumbing. My initial call was after work, for a slow drain on my kitchen sink, I had a little bit of a slow drain throughout the week, and I thought I had time before things totally clogged up, so I scheduled my visit for the weekend (WEEKEND AVAILABILITY IS SUCH A HARD THING TO FIND). I was told that MAS could have someone come out and perform an inspection and I signed up. I tried to see if I could fix the issue myself using a hand crank drain snake, and I wasn't getting anywhere. Low and behold, later that night my sink and dishwasher totally backed up, and I knew I needed help ASAP. I called MAS the same day at 9 p.m. and got a hold of their afterhours answering service, who let me know they would forward my call to the office to be addressed the next day. To my surprise, Carl called me back the same night! He offered to come out at 9 p.m. but let me know that since it wasn't really an emergency, he'd recommend that I just wait until the next day. He let me know that they could definitely get me in for the next day, and that he would probably be the one to come out and assist. Without Carl I wouldn't have been able to sleep, just getting a call back from Carl letting me know that MAS plumbing could be out the next day helped me rest easy. Carl came out the next day, and KILLED IT. Super kind, professional, skilled and also charismatic. He got the pro-sized snake out and got the job done in less than a couple hours. I could tell he really cared about the client experience, and he was super focused on getting the job done. Carl also went above and beyond and took a look at my drain line set-up so that I could ensure that it was pitched correctly. I can't recommend MAS enough. The customer service was excellent from start to slightly panicked late-night moment, all the way to when Carl came and won me over as a client for likely the rest of my time in this house. I'm so happy I found this Company, and Carl made me a client of MAS for life! Thanks again, Carl and MAS!

I really appreciated Mas plumbing schedule my appointment for the very nice day. Everyone is very nice and friendly tackling the plumbing problem as soon as possible. Matt did an excellent job replacing the wax ring and bolting down the toilet. He was very neat and cleaned up afterwards. I highly recommend Mas Plumping. Thank you for a job swiftly done so my family could use our guest bathroom again. Diana

I recently used LaCassa Plumbing for a water heater replacement and drain cleaning, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. From the first call to the final walkthrough, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. Carmen arrived on time, explained the condition of my old water heater, and went over my replacement options clearly with upfront pricing. The installation was smooth, and now we have consistent hot water with no issues. They also cleaned out our drains, which are flowing perfectly again no more slow sinks! What really stood out was their honesty, attention to detail, and respect for my home. They left everything clean and made sure I was completely satisfied before leaving. Highly recommend LaCassa Plumbing if you need reliable, high-quality plumbing work. I’ll definitely be calling them again in the future!

Lacassa plumbing came to me on a days notice. My sewer line was backing up and I was panicking! Carmen and Josh came out to my house the next day and went over all of the options clearly and thoroughly. They fixed the problem quickly and efficiently. They repaired the entire sewer line the same day. I highly recommend LaCassa Plumbing!

Highly recommend LaCassa plumbing. Needed a new sump pump installed. They came out and explained everything with detail. Also had them replace two toilets in our home. Very courteous and honest

Excellent service!!! Very professional!!! Highly recommended!!! The booking process was easy, and they arrived right on time, which is always a big plus! They took the time to thoroughly assess the issue and explained the problem clearly, offering several cost-effective solutions. Their transparency about pricing was refreshing — no hidden fees or surprise charges. It’s clear that Nex Gen takes pride in their work and values customer satisfaction. I had a leaky pipe with several clogged drains and they fixed it in no time, with no mess left behind. The quality of work is top-notch, and I feel confident that everything is in good hands. I highly recommend Nex Gen to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy plumbing service. They’ve earned a loyal customer in me!

Abel handled the drain cleaning at my residence and did a great job. He kept the work site clean and made sure the job was done right the first time. I highly recommend this company.

Abel came immediately when contacted to help us solve our backed up kitchen drain. He called and gave us an estimated time of arrival which was exact! He was professional, asked all the right questions to get to the heart of the matter. He checked everything to make sure he was snaking the right area and would go far enough. He was clean and neat, protected my floor as well as under my sink. He snaked our drain and was patient about checking to make sure everything was flowing properly. He cleaned up after the job very efficiently. Highly recommend Nexgen plumbing!!!! Great job!

We had some big roots clogging our drains. Elias and his team came in, introduced themselves and explained exactly what they were going to look for and the process. They got right to it and were finished quickly. They showed me a camera view of before and then after, explaining what was happening the whole way through. Very efficient, polite, and great to work with. Will highly recommend.

Abraham at Father and Son’s did a great job with our new toilet installation. They kept everything clean and tidy, were very friendly and pricing was reasonable. Elias also came out to give an honest assessment of our plumbing situation, and we felt that he was honest and incredibly accommodating with schedules. Will definitely hire them again!

Excellent service from start to finish! The toilet installation was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. The plumber was knowledgeable, friendly, and respectful of our home. No leaks, no mess, and everything works perfectly. Pricing was fair and the service exceeded expectations. I’ll definitely be using them again and recommending them to others.

5-stars all the way for the 'Hydro-Man' and his team. The communication from when I reached out to the completion of the service was exceptional. Josh, the owner, texted me updates on their arrival and they completed the service in a prompt, professional manner. Additionally, Josh and his team were more than happy to educate me on my sewer system and welcomed me to watch the entire process. As a new homeowner, it was invaluable to spend time learning about the plumbing in my home while simultaneously receiving top notch service. I will be a repeat customer!

We had a significant block-up of our sewer line out to the street and Josh and his most-helpful assistant Sam made extra effort to address the problem quickly when returning from a trip when I chose to jet the entire sewer line out to the street. Josh is a very friendly, competent and professional provider of an obviously important service. He and Sam spent a good part of an afternoon using multiple techniques and tools to overcome large snarls of roots and lips on the pipe out to the street. Sam operated the camera to indicate the best way forward and examine the pipe after successful jetting. They make a great team and I highly recommend them for any jetting that is needed. My only hesitation between 4 and 5 stars was the rather insignificant guarantee of their work. Josh offered only a rather insignificant six months! He must have enough sewer block jetting jobs to note when they have asked for another service to offer a guarantee/warrantee based on experience. From my experience, even with auger sewer pipe cleaning, it should be much longer than six months..

I completely agree with all the glowing reviews—this company is exceptional! I cannot recommend their services highly enough. Josh and his team were outstanding from start to finish. He responded promptly to every call and text, addressed my request quickly, and resolved our issue while taking the time to explain each step clearly. If I ever face another issue, I won’t hesitate to call Josh and Hydro-Man Jetting & Drain Cleaning LLC again!

Had David and Rodel install a new water heater, complete new drainage, new gas lines, new hot/cold copper lines. Repair my 3 compartment existing commercial sink setup and brought everything up to code. The work was done clean and with a permit. Communicating the whole way through. You don’t see this level of work a lot. 1000/5 stars

I had a water issue due to an improperly installed sewer pipe along with roots in the line. They came out quickly, identified the issue and corrected it right away. Very knowledgeable, charged a honest price and were extremely professional. I would definitely recommend them.

I had a clogged sink and leaking pipes that turned into an emergency on a Sunday night. I was honestly shocked when David (the owner) picked up my call at 10:30 PM and was able to help right away. He arrived at my house first thing the next morning at 7:30 AM! David was extremely polite, very knowledgeable, and kept the pricing fair and affordable. He explained everything clearly and got the job done efficiently. In a stressful plumbing situation, that’s exactly what you hope for. Highly recommend Elevate Plumbing — David and his team are the real deal! If you need reliable, responsive service, look no further.

We had issues with our main sewer line. We received other quotes. Elias's insight, knowledge, expertise, and professionalism was in a class of his own. He also provided a great explanation as to what was going on, the concerns and also the options we had available. We didn't think we had options until we met with Elias and Bee Quick. With his expertise in the field he fixed the issue (efficiently, thoroughly and effectively) and saved us a significant expense and undertaking that wasn't necessary but deemed necessary by others. We are grateful to Elias and Bee Quick. He is the epitome of a class act and professional. I highly recommend and would encourage you to get a quote from Bee Quick before making final decisions elsewhere.

I had a main drain line issue and Bee Quick was one of three plumbers I contacted. His technical expertise, knowledge, and love of his trade are unparalleled. He diagnosed the problem, provided a quick turn-around schedule date to complete the work, and the work was completed professionally, cleanly, and quickly. I will never be contacting any other plumber ever again as a result. The quantity of 5 star reviews is very indicative of the service provided.

We needed the drain pipes replaced for about 1/2 the house. 90 year old pipes. First quote ( from another plumber ) was eye watering. Bee Quick did the job for less than 1/2 the other quote. They listened to my concerns and we quickly agreed on what they were going to do. The only thing I wanted, that they would not do would have been a code violation. ( politely explained ) Total pros and a pleasure to work with. If there was an option for 6 stars I would have given it to them.

The service today from J Sewer & Drain Plumbing was beyond excellent. I very much thank Marcelo and the other great crew member for their service. Marcelo is a knowledgeable professional who accurately diagnosed the plumbing and sewer line issues we were experiencing and determined the most practical, cost effective solutions and provided options. Once the work was started, Marcelo kept me well informed and he and his fellow crew member stayed on the problem until it was resolved. And it was a tough drainage problem for sure! I highly recommend J Sewer & Drain Plumbing for anyone looking for a company with integrity, professionalism, cost effectiveness, and the ability to fix problems. Thank you Marcelo and crew, very much.

I highly recommend them!! We had interacted with multiple plumbing & HVAC companies, and J Sewer & Drain Plumbing is the BEST, most professional, transparent, sincere, competent, and reliable. They communicated well with us about the work that needs to be done and when they did, they covered the entire area. We were doing bathroom remodeling at the same time. While the contractors did a nice work, they left a huge mess, dust everywhere, they were mixing glue, cutting tiles on our living room without covering our furnitures, floors, other rooms, etc. They are on our cell and will reach out if any plumbing related issues arise.

We called J Sewer & Drain at 5pm on a Friday after finding our basement flooded and they had a team out to our house within an hour. Carlos and Neris showed up and quickly identified the issue (tree roots were obstructing our sewer line) and got right to work rodding the line. The problem was resolved within few hours and they shared a reco for restoration/cleanup. They were friendly, professional and patient in helping us understand what the issue was and how to prevent it in the future. Would definitely recommend.

Mike and Carmen did an amazing job! They were reasonably priced and very thorough. My basement drain was backing up from the sewer and they got everything cleared out of the main sewer line. They ran into some issues that they thought may cause problems in the future and they spent hours more than they needed to making sure everything was able to flow properly. 10 stars!

Carmen and his entire staff were awesome. We had an emergency and they came out right away. We have never used LaCassa before and we are extremely happy with the work. Carmen was very detailed in explaining the work he was going to do. He was very patient with all of our questions. They finished the job in one day and cleaned up everything. Nicole was super helpful with the process with permits and a payment plan. I would recommend LaCassa 100%.

Mike and Carmen were both incredibly helpful in solving my issues with two toilets that needed repair. They walked me through my options after assessment and provided recommended solutions. Additionally, they completed the repairs quickly and effectively. I will definitely continue to use them going forward.
