Drain-EEZ Plumbing

I had a leaking toilet that needed to be fixed immediately. I called Drain-eez and Pat was out to my place in about an hour. He did a really nice job fixing my toilet. He took the time to explain to me what the problem was and answered all my questions. He does good work at a reasonable price. I recommend Drain-Eez for your plumbing needs.

My bathroom faucet was leaking. Although he fixed the leak by replacing the hot and cold stems, he overcharges for his services. He charged $325 which included $150 in parts. Unfortunately, I hired him before I heard from a handyman the following day who told me the total cost would be $85 which included $10 for the parts. The handyman diagnosed the same problem. Lesson learned.

We had the trifecta. Our faucet started leaking, then our hot water heater, and a few days later, our neighbor says our toilet is leaking into his bathroom. Not kidding. More plumbing issues in 3 days then we've had in 10 years. I searched Yelp and thought the reviews for Draineez plumbers were excellent, and gave them a call. Well, there's a reason the reviews are excellent. They were able to come out the same day, take out the old faucet, install the new faucet, find the leak from the toilet and fix it, and remove the hot water heater. Took about 2 hours for all the work to be completed and for our plumbing to get back to normal. The Two plumbers were very friendly and knowledgable. Price was reasonable considering all the time and labor they had to put in. Most importantly, everything is working again as it should. The quality of their work is what makes me give them 5 stars. The only advice I'd give them in the future is to bring their own towels, since we went through a boat load of ours to clean up the messes from leaks. Still, if any future plumbing issues arise, we will call these plumbers.

Pat and his helper recently came by to fix our kitchen sink and toilet. The sink has been backing up for a while and our original thought was to use draino and an inexpensive plumber to fix it. Well you get what you pay for because the last ""plumber"" ended up fixing nothing. In fact, Pat noticed that they had put in some pipe pieces in backwards! Unfortunately for us, our problem was a plastic bag that was in our pipes years before we moved in. When it came to the bathroom Pat not only fixed the problem but gave us his honest feedback on purchasing a new toiled which we've been avoiding. Overall we're very satisfied with Pat's work and service. Finding a moderately priced plumber in the city is hard to find-- we'll definitely be using Drain-EEZ again.

I had my garbage disposal go out right before leaving for the holidays and they were at my house in an hour and a half and had it fixed quickly and it was a very professional experience. I would definitely use them again.

Thank you!!

Pat and his brother did a good job clearing my drain. They were both responsive, friendly, and professional. Cleaned up after the job. If I need plumbing work again, I will call them. Be prepared-cash or check only.

Pat did a fantastic job. I called him when my garbage disposal and kitchen sink clogged on Christmas, expecting to get a voicemail, and instead reached a very friendly receptionist who scheduled the service. Pat came out the next day to fix everything. He was very professional, quite efficient and was upfront with me about the cost before fixing anything. He checked to see if he could fix the garbage disposal before replacing it and also gave me a tutorial on how I can try to fix it myself should something go wrong in the future. He did a great job and was a very friendly guy. I will definitely use him the next time I have a plumbing issue (which hopefully will not be for a while!).

That awful moment when you notice the water start to build up in the bathtub. You think to yourself, ""It will start draining again, no worries."" But the worries do come and the tub does begin to fill with more and more water until your showers are now a bath for your feet and ankles. Of course, everyone you talk to is a plumber. ""Try a hanger."" ""Try drain-o"" ""Try using an auger and a plunger."" We tried all of this remedies to no avail, only furthering our plight by filling up our bathtub with black ooze from the depths of hell. I got off work tonight at 4:30. I called Pat the plumber hoping a professional plumber who is well versed in the intricate cruelties of plumbing could save us. By 6 pm our sink and tub were flowing better than ever.

Thanks to Pat and Jeff, I can shed this stench that has plagued my body for the past few days(having the tub clog up on Christmas Eve was impeccable timing) and shower my body in delightful goodness. Stop trying to do the plumbing yourself and get Pat the Plumber. Guy is honest, fast and efficient with over 30 years of experience!

I had a problem with a basement toilet overflowing when the upstairs toilet was flushed. I had one ""plumber"" out who rodded the drain from the basement to the city main. Next day problem persisted. Went to Yelp and via high recommendations called Drain-EEZ. On the 15th of November they came out and re- power rodded. Asked me what the cost of the previous plumber was. I told him $250 and he replied, ""well you got a $250 job."" I was then given a quote of $595 and I agreed, figuring you get what you pay for. Drain-EEZ rodded the same drain pipes and cleared the blockage - temporarily.

Today, 37 days later, I calledDrain EEZ and told them the problem was back. I was told that it was past the 30 day warranty and that it would cost me about half (almost $300) to have them re-rod it. I was told that there might be a problem with the drain, and that they do not have cameras. Lesson learned. Suggestion to my fellow consumers: ask if the plumbing/drain people have cameras and have any other questions ready including length of guarantee. Also regarding such rave reviews on Yelp, I was told that It would be appreciated if I wrote a favorable review. I wonder how many other reviews were solicited?

Pat is wonderful! I called around 1:00pm today, and my call was answered promptly by the office. After explaining my serious tub drainage issue, I received a call back from Pat within 30 minutes and he was at my place one hour later!

While he was working he took the time to show me what he was doing at each step, and he explained the damage that was being caused by the drain opener our building's maintenance had been pouring in for clogs over the past three years (the acid was eating away at the pipes, and the rot was causing more damage and clogging). Another 30 minutes later, and the drain was unclogged and my shower is usable again.

So happy to find such a wonderful plumber in Chicago!
