Recommended Customer Reviews
When we needed a set of pipes in our laundry room rerouted to move them outside of an exterior wall, First Chicago designed a practical and cost-effective solution for us. Their estimate was the lowest of several services we contacted. The work was done within a week and exactly as described. Communication with the office was easy and the team arrived precisely on time. Highly recommend.
These guys were highly responsive, scheduled for the next day. They were highly skilled and did the toilet install quickly for a fixed fee. They took away all the old materials. Was very happy with the service and quality of the job. 5 star service!
Silcox F.I needed to put gas and plumbing in the house because of the shower. When I contacted them, they listened to everything I had to say. They came to me and did everything perfectly. I am very grateful to them!
Joseph Z.Racing to make a dinner date I broke the shower lever last night and was not able to turn off the water. We have a partial water supply shut down so there was a trickle of water all night. I immediately searched and messaged Eugene from First Chicago and he said they would come today! Their estimate was accurate and they worked fast and well to fix our problem. They completed their work in about one hour and worked as a team to assess and respond to our needs. If you have a problem call Eugene and he will help you. Thanks for responding to our needs. Sincerely, Joe
If I you could do partial stars I would give them like 4.25/5. Great work, good communication, very accommodating, very pleasant to work with. Mine was a huge project that cost $26k. Moving plumbing, adding plumbing, installing a smart multi outlet shower, tankless water heaters etc. Very responsive when there's an issue. Would highly recommend for either small or large projects.
I contacted First Chicago Plumbing to fix a leaking toilet. Office staff were pleasant over the phone, and they provided an estimate over email with a couple pictures of the toilet and description of the leak. The plumber who came out was pleasant and professional. He realized the toilet wasn't secured properly to the floor (something I knew, but forgot to ask about initially), and demonstrated why that was the case (the flange was basically rusted to pieces). He needed to run out to as he didn't have the correct replacement part, but I greatly appreciated that compared to forcing me to schedule another service call. Overall, fixed the leak, fixed another problem I forgot to initially mention, and cleaned up well. Would call them again.
I've used First Chicago when it was I think just the owner, Eugene. Now it sounds like they have a small group of plumbers and a shop on Elston Ave. It's not surprising they are growing. Today, Jorge Serna was pleasant, fast, and gave me helpful advice about following through with their my own maintenance. Good communication, excellent service, reasonable prices. Highly recommended.
Jimmy V.Very responsive and helpful with scheduling. Estimated price was higher than the work that was actually done and still and to pay the estimated price.
Justin L.Vasyl from First Chicago Plumbing was just here and was great. Very professional, and remedied our toilet issue quickly and without issue.
Paulina S.Just finished my appointment with First Chicago Plumbing, and after the disasters I have been dealing with from other contractors I've used, I felt compelled to leave this review on a business that does things right. Eugene was quick to respond and very professional over email. Scheduling an appointment was easy and they were able to make it out the same week.
Jorge and Sergio (I believe that was his name) were the ones on site. They were nice and explained everything to me. There was some work that was up in the air on whether it needed to be done, and ultimately they were able to get the job done without the additional work.
The biggest part of my work was correcting a disposal hook up my contractor horribly botched during my kitchen renovation. They were able to correct everything and hook it up correctly. It looks SO much better (see before and after pictures attached).
Everything was cleaned up and then tested in front of me to make sure it worked.
I thought the price was fair and very close to the quote I received. It's the city, so if you want good work you can't cheap out (as I've learned the hard way). Ultimately I was just happy to have actual licensed professionals who knew what they were doing.
I'll definitely use these guys again and keep them on my speed-dial for any future plumbing needs!
