First Chicago Plumbing

I was very impressed with the fast response time and honest opinion of First Chicago Plumbing. I am currently selling a property and the buyer asked to have the rusted gas pipe to the grill outside replaced per the inspection. I contacted First Chicago Plumbing for an estimate and they got back to me within an hour to schedule an appointment that afternoon! Unlike some other companies I contacted, they did not charge to come out and look at the issue to provide an estimate which I appreciated. Upon looking at the pipe, our plumber, Eugene, stated that the rust was purely cosmetic and was not impacting the functionality (no gas leaks or weak spots); it was just normal for a pipe being outside. He recommended leaving it alone because the new pipe would rust in a year again anyway and there was nothing wrong with it. I asked for a write up of his recommendation that I could provide to the buyer and he promptly got it to me the same day.

While I did not have any work done, I will definitely contact them in the future for any plumbing needs as I appreciated their honesty and was more than happy with the estimate they provided if, in fact, the pipe were to be replaced.

First Chicago is my plumber of choice for all our General Contracting company's plumbing projects. They do top quality work at very reasonable pricing, I highly recommend them!

Only good things to say about these guys - prompt, honest, friendly, and the price is right. They did quality work for us and were flexible regarding scheduling

I waited a few months to review the repair on our bath tub. We had the leak ""repaired"" 4 times by a few plumbers. It would not leak for a few months and start back up again. So far we have had zero water leaking. The repair cost was VERY reasonable which I can say with absolute confidence since we had 3 other plumbers come for estimates before choosing Eugene and crew. They were very curtious, cleaned up after themselves, and were on time. I would use this company again for my plumbing needs.

I can only say wonderful things about Eugene and George! Our hot water heater started leaking (with nothing to drain it) on Friday night. I messaged Eugene through Yelp around 10pm and he responded an hour later that he could likely help me on Saturday. Eugene and George were at our house on Saturday by 1pm to fix our unit and installed quickly. They even suggested a tray and pvc tubing to drain the tank should we have leaking again.

I would suggest these guys to anyone! I would also use them for any future plumbing needs.

As usual, I wait until the last second to do any home repairs and this was no exception. I had the day off the next day and hoped to get some work done. I emailed Eugene through Yelp and received a response almost immediately. Not only is he a smart, super nice guy but he texted me that he was available the following day! He came over, assessed the situation and just got the work done on the spot. Really reasonably priced, fast and just good natured. I would use Eugene and First Chicago Plumbing again in a second. Really great resource to have for the future. Thanks again!

I had to replace my garbage disposal under the kitchen sink. I called four different companies to get a quote. One company told me they couldn't give quotes over the phone; they would have to come out, but I would have to pay them for coming over even if I decided the quote was too high. The other two companies gave me ridiculously high quotes. When I called First Chicago Plumbing and explained what I needed to get done, they gave me a very reasonable quote and scheduled an appointment three days later. On the day of the appointment, they called an hour before to let me know they were on their way. They got everything done in 20 min. They were very nice and professional. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again for any of the plumbing related issues.

I had an issue with low water pressure in my high rise unit. I called Eugene for service. He came the next morning and fixed the problem quickly. He took the time to clean out the part that had a blockage instead of just replacing it which saved me money. Eugene is fast, professional and reliable. Thanks Eugene!

We had several gas leaks in our basement and had our gas turned off immediately. After calling First Chicago Plumbing, they came out the same day, gave us a very fair quote, and were back out the next day to complete the job. They were extremely friendly, professional and clearly took pride in their work. They even contacted us the next day to make sure everything was working properly after the gas company came back to turn the gas on. Wonderful company that I would recommend to anyone!

My ceiling started to sport a fancy little drip of water which turned in to a steady stream which turned in to my ceiling partially caving in. I had a pinpoint leak in a pipe from my upstairs neighbors air conditioner which just went bonkers. From a recommendation, I contacted First Chicago Plumbing and was amazed from start to finish. They came out and assessed the situation, educated me on what it was and within a day were out fixing and replacing the pipe. They were educational, prompt and very reasonable with prices. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any plumbing needs!
