Recommended Customer Reviews

While having floor drain back up issues , I searched the yellow pages .For a plumbing company . Got lucky, they were somewhat near me and they responded quickly . They were fair priced , pleasant and knowledgeable. I highly recommend them for you plumbing issues.

Able Sewerage provides excellent service at a competitive price. Able will respond to inquiries quickly, within a day. The plumbers perform their job and speak with professionalism. They respect your property, leaving the work area clean. I have used Able for several plumbing issues: clogged sink, resealing a toilet, installing a faucet and removing an old drum trap. I recommended Able to my neighbor when they had water in their basement due to a clogged sewer line. My neighbor was very satisfied with the work performed and the price paid. Because of the quality of service I have received, I highly recommend Able Sewerage.

Came out for sewage back up. Three workers showed up and after 2 hours did not have the issue solved. Said they would have to dig up our whole back yard to replace the line. The whole story did not sit well with my husband, who is a licensed plumber, and myself. His father built our house and where they said our lines were didn't make sense. ( my husband knew better) Called another local company who came out and had the problem totally solved in less than a hour, no digging needed. Saved thousands of dollars!!

Great guys! Did an elaborate replacement of outdoor pipes quickly n cleanly. They're our first call for any plumbing issues; should be yours as well.

I have used Able for 5 years for septic issues and they have always delivered. However, this last time was beyond great. I have a restaurant and called for the usual toilet clog. I was away so I was getting text updates. They said it was a plumber issue but the plumber was fixing it? Who? I have never used Able for plumbing services so I had no idea what I was walking into. I had my usual plumber on the way when Able showed up with the correct parts and fixed the issues. Thank you

I did NOT ASK ABLE TO LOOK AT MY CATCH BASIN. That is a bold face lie. I will not recommend Able or use Able again. Lesson Learned. I will hire another company to Hydro Clean the area that was causing the backup. They also use a camera and the cost is $750.00 not $1,500.
In life you make mistakes. Hiring Able was a big mistake. After reading the unprofessional response and the falsehoods from Chris, I am just glad I didn't give them the $1,700 they originally asked for.
Loss BUT LESSON LEARNED. Will pay $750.00 for professional work.

Not Happy .If you need camera ,turn the other way.Their camera was not able to catch problem I had for 5 months. They sad the sewer is pipe is not leveled anymore and that caused the sewer to clog.They offered to cut my pipes and replace them for just about $5000.After second opinion and top of the line professional camera( A-1 sewer experts) it was simply a very bad clogged sewer.the guys hydro jet the pipe and DONE for $650

This is a great company. Fast service, competitively priced. The best part is I think they are really honest & I trust their recommendations. Definitely recommend.

I spoke with Chris on the phone regarding septic tanks. He was very friendly and helpful with answering all my questions.

Slightly disappointed! During the recent Polar Vortex here in Chicago, I called ABLE, because they were close to my home & I read nice reviews. However, I had to wait 4 days for service & when the guys arrived to my home, they told me there was nothing they could do because it was a water pressure problem & that's not what they handle!
HOLD ON! I waited 4 days without water and you can't help me! After you canceled my morning appointment to an afternoon appointment because you were running behind schedule!
The guys literally spent 5 mins in my home and left me with the same issue! They told me I needed someone to come and blow the water lines because it may have been calcium build up in the lines! Needless to say, I was able to find another company to come out. The diagnosis was a BUSTED PIPE! ABLE DID NOT GIVE ME A PROPER DIAGNOSIS!!
Based on this experience, I will not call them again. It was a poor experience from beginning to end!
Signed,
Highly Dissatisfied!
