Top Rated Plumbers in Elmhurst, Illinois
MAS Plumbing, Inc.
81 Monaco Dr, Roselle, IL 60172, USA
(630) 884-4201I 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!

4 months agoSuburban Plumbing Sewer Line and Drain Cleaning Experts
9100 Plainfield Rd Suite #9A, Brookfield, IL 60513, USA
(708) 801-6530From 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.
6 months agoWe 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.
7 months agoMike, 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!

6 months agoLaCassa Plumbing | Plumber, Drain Cleaning, Sewer Repair and Tankless Water Heater Installation Westmont, IL
101 E Chicago Ave, Westmont, IL 60559, USA

From the first call to the final walkthrough, everything was handled professionally and efficiently.

3 months agoJ Sewer & Drain Plumbing
3343 N Monticello Ave, Chicago, IL 60618, USA
(773) 968-2704The 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.
3 months agoI 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.
10 months agoWe 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.

4 months agoBee Quick Plumbing & Sewer - Naperville
1133 Elizabeth Ave, Naperville, IL 60540, USA
(630) 923-1942We 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.
5 months agoI 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.
5 months agoWe 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.
5 months agoJ Sewer & Drain Plumbing
3017 N Elston Ave, Chicago, IL 60618, USA
(773) 968-2704I needed a water heater installation for a tenant and JSewer and Drain did NOT disappoint. Diego and Luis were exemplary plumbers. All of JSewer’s crew are amazing! They are my go to plumbers. I found them last February and I’ll always call them for all my plumbing needs. The tenant stated “that’s an amazing water tank.” They’re very pleased.
3 months agoWhen Diego arrived to my house I told him that there was something wrong with my water system before he started working. The cold supply line to my water heater was shut off I drained my water heater overnight but when I woke up this morning water was still flowing out. This meant cold water was leaking into my hot water pipes and back into my water heater. Although I told the team working on my water heater replacement this information as soon as they walked in they cut into the hot side pipe knowing that there was running water in it. This this started to flood my furnished rental apartment in my basement. Instead of trying to cap the leak The Operators started to try and soak up the leak. The water continued to leak until they finally went back to Home Depot to buy a new shut-off valve. It is my opinion that when a customer let you know there's a problem you should come up with a plan before cutting a pipe with running water in it. All I wanted was a simple apology from management but instead Jesus gaslit me into believing that this was how the work was supposed to be done and that he had 25 years of experience and these things just happen and I should be thankful that somebody was willing to work on Sunday. Regardless if they flooded my basement or not. The hot water did get installed and the damage was minimal (only because me and my renter worked diligently at mitigating the flood) so i paid what was owed but i will not be fooled to believe this was the best service that i could have recieved.
4 months agoI got multiple estimates for an exterior flood control system, but J Sewer & Drain stood out right away. The owner was honest, responsive, and offered a fair price compared to other contractors. The work was completed quickly and smoothly with no issues at all. Glad I went with them. Ruby

4 months agoJack Simonson was great! Had 5 different companies for quotes in my sewer line. He was the most honest and transparent of the plumbers. He gave me a estimate onsite and did not try to upsell me like the others. Scottish Plumber made sure the hydro jet and stent was done timely and show me the before and after.
3 months agoElliot is a thorough, professional, and proactive plumber. He went above and beyond while he was at our home, found the core issue after detailed troubleshooting, and made sure our pump worked properly. We really appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to ensure everything worked as it should. After calling 4 plumbers and getting ghosted (not sure why), it was a huge relief to speak with someone over the phone to schedule Elliot to come by and help us out. Scottish Plumber has an excellent system and brought a great plumber! Update: we had Carlos come to install a new back up sump pump and check valve and he was prompt, kind, and careful! We are so grateful for the team at Scottish plumbing.

Common Drain Issues in Elmhurst, Illinois
Tree Root Intrusion: Elmhurst is celebrated for its beautiful, mature tree canopy. Unfortunately, those deep roots are naturally drawn to the moisture in sewer lines. They can find tiny cracks in older clay pipes, leading to massive blockages that require professional clearing.
Older Home Infrastructure: In many of Elmhurst's historic neighborhoods, galvanized or cast iron pipes are still in use. Over decades, these pipes suffer from internal corrosion and scale buildup, which narrows the drain path and causes frequent backups.
Basement Floor Drain Backups: With the frequent heavy rainstorms common in the Chicago suburbs, Elmhurst basements are prone to dampness. A clogged floor drain can't properly manage excess water, significantly increasing the risk of costly water damage during a storm.
Kitchen Grease and Sediment: Between family dinners and the cold Illinois winters, grease and food particles can solidify quickly in your pipes. Over time, this creates a 'fatberg' effect that standard hardware store chemicals simply cannot dissolve.
Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Elmhurst, Illinois
Prepare for the Spring Thaw: In Elmhurst, the ground thaw can shift pipes and send debris into your drainage system. Have your main line inspected in early spring to prevent basement flooding during the rainy season.
Clear Fall Debris: Before the first freeze, ensure all outdoor area drains and window wells are clear of leaves from Elmhurst’s many trees. This prevents ice dams from forming and forcing water back into your foundation.
Monitor Roots in Summer: Tree roots grow most aggressively during the warm summer months. If you notice gurgling sounds in your toilets during July or August, it’s often a sign that roots are starting to obstruct your sewer line.
Winter Pipe Protection: During deep Illinois freezes, keep your home’s ambient temperature consistent to prevent grease from hardening in your drains and to ensure that condensation doesn't freeze and block vent stacks.
Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Elmhurst, Illinois
Pricing in Elmhurst typically depends on the location of the clog and the equipment needed. A standard sink snaking is more affordable, while main sewer line clearing or hydro-jetting involves higher costs due to specialized machinery.
