Tangney & Sons Plumbing & Sewers

Will D.

I am a state licensed Home Inspector. I refer Tangney for my clients who want their sewer lines scoped They charge a reasonable rate and do a very good job.

I have also hired them for various plumbing work at my house (installing a new water heater, replacing some old pipes, etc) and they have always done a good job in a timely fashion for a reasonable rate.

I can recommend them with full confidence. As a business, the reason to refer someone is to have them make you look good. And Tangney does that, every time.

This company is great. We had a sewer emergency on a Sunday. Of course we payed a higher house call fee for it being an emergency on a Sunday, but I didn't find it way ridiculous. They showed up within an hour, the professional that showed up was kind and thorough. It turned out it was the sewer main problem, but the worker was here for over an hour and even gave us this device for our floor drain so that more water wouldn't come up. With all that, we were just charged the house call fee that was quoted over the phone. I felt that they were honest and cared about what they were doing. I definitely recommend them.

Mike is a great guy. Responded very quickly to my call and came out in the worst weather...dealt quickly and efficiently with my drain and clogged sewer problems and also identified the cause of some seepage inside the house. Did a camera scope of all the underground pipes...under my slab foundation. And his charge was super low compared to any other plumbing contractor I've used. I will rely on him from here on out and not waste time and money on other companies. Wish I had known about him when I purchased this house a year back...I would have had him out to scope the drains then. He is the best.

I was recommended to Tangney & Sons, when I needed a new water service line and Mike Tangney sprang to the rescue! The address of my property is at least 60-70 miles away from Tangney's location, but that did not stop Mike from immediately researching what my property required and he got plans from the Chicago Water Dept beforehand, so he arrived armed with expertise and information! Mike knew exactly what I needed and he provided a price that was more than fair! I am so grateful to Mike for saving the day and I can't recommend him highly enough!

We had a major problem when a sewer line in the street suddenly broke and threatened to block our sewage system. Joe from Tagney came to the rescue and took care of it for us. He was through, prompt and efficient. The disaster was avoided and at a fair price. He handled everything from obtaining permits to doing the dig to a neat cleanup. Joe is now our plumber and we are glad to have him. He is the best.

Had one of their men, Joe come out to try and unclog a drain. Tried unclogging for 2 hours and gave up and insisted the only solution is the expensive jet flush starting at $1,200+ I declined so he left with his easy $200+ for not doing anything at all. Was able to make time today to rent a machine myself from Home Depot and got it open after multiple hours of hard work. Lazy man looking to make a quick dollar not to try to solve an issue.

I have called them for multiple jobs. They have always completed the quickly and have been able to come out within a day.

Joe ""The Plumber"" was a pleasure to work with.
We had an unexpected accident when a tree trimming co damaged our septic tank. I was given Joe's number as a referral and boy was I in luck.
Joe responded immediately, he was at my home within hours. He secured the area, met with insurance companies, submitted permits and followed the process from beginning to end.
i will recommend Joe and Tangney Plumbing for all your plumbing and septic needs.

Joe is wonderfully honest and a great, trustworthy resource for our condo association. We asked him to come out and perform work on our building and, after assessing our situation, he actually advised us not to have him perform the job we had requested because it would be an unnecessary expenditure for our association, even though he was taking money out of his own pocket by saying so. We will use him and his company for all of our building's plumbing needs, and if my wife and I ever move, I will make sure to recommend him for work on our future residence as well.

Have used them on a number of jobs; always professional and polite and they also know their plumbing! Have brought Joe in a number of times to fix my old plumber's mistakes.
