I recently used Power Plumbing and they impressed me so much I will be a customer for life. Not only were they able to come out same day and fix all my small projects around the house, the technician was quick to point out easy workarounds for many of my issues that not just resolved the issues, but saved me money. Recently I had another issue that I called them about, instead of sending out a tech and billing me- they reached out to their team with my issues and called me back to give me some instructions to try on my own to see if I could resolve it myself. Lo and behold, their tips were right

Recently had some work done in my bathroom -- older midrise building in Lakeview. The Power team was great. Very pleased with their work. Replaced Sloan value in the toilet, new faucets in the sink and then updated faucets, shower and tub spout in the shower tub. Doing work in a older building and retrofitting things to old plumbing, walls, tile etc is hard work and complex at times. They were vigilant in figuring thigs out, making sure things work properly -- a quality team and responsive.

Had a great experience... From working with Rae to schedule and follow up, to James who was great...personality, knowledge and ability. Two other plumbers couldn't fix my problem. James didn't hesitate to dig in to the problem. Worked efficiently and explained everything to me. My problem is solved and I have a new company to go to for future work.

These guys were our second quote for getting the shutoff valves fixed under our kitchen sink and for our toilet, and not only were they better priced than our first quote with Apex, they were more responsive and followed up with us better as well. The plumber, Tony, who was sent to our house, really knew his stuff. He showed up half an hour early to the appointment to look at the valves to make sure that he brought the right parts; time we weren't charged for. He was done in an hour and a half, despite the fact that I had no idea where our building water main shut off valve was (and he helped

AVOID THIS BUSINESS AT ALL COSTS! After making an appointment for a camera scope for my drain, two service people came and said they I needed a trap installed which I told them ahead of time I wanted them to access before doing anything, They confirmed that a trap needed to be installed and that I need to call back and set up another appointment and they couldn't help even with time scheduled already. Also even though they didn't do a camera scope they wouldn't leave without taking $200 for being inside my home for 10 minutes without doing anything. (They charge minimum $400 for

These guys are terrific. It's easy to reach them and they are quick to respond. Scheduling was easy and they followed up to confirm the appointment the day before. Their plumbers were extremely professional and clearly knew what they were doing.
They arrived on time and spread drop cloths I. The area where they were working. They actually left the place cleaner than they found it. :-)
They replaced an old kitchen sink and faucet for me and helped me every step of the way - from figuring out the logistics of what size and kind of sink I needed, to having it shipped to them so they could

The scheduling and service were great. The person calling to collect the payment was extremely rude.
I had the service on 6/28 for an emergency repair. The scheduling process with Paul and the service from Erik were both great. Erik explained everything to me while he's on-site and the job was finished on the same day.
On 6/30, I called Power Plumbing to get the invoice, so I could pay. The person answering the phone was polite and told me that they haven't caught up all the paper work yet and they will send me the invoice once they have. Today (7/28) 2:04pm was when things went downhill

I had an issue with my shower that I thought needed a valve adjustment. Huge project, removing tiles on the wall and cutting into wall for access. Ugh!! Tony came out, diagnosed the problem and was tenacious on getting a solve without having to cut into the wall. Viola, we needed to replace cartridge and blow out some clogs in the piping!! Shower works better than ever! This saved me hundreds of dollars and aggravation.
This company has impressed me so much! They are honest, reliable and the communication I received leading up to the appointment was world class!!
Thank you to Tony and Power Plumbing

I was a little doubtful at first. I had reached Power Plumbing through Plumbers911, and the overnight answering service they used was unhelpful and a little rude.
Luckily when Ray called back the next day, things were dramatically better. Bob was able to help out later that afternoon and was extremely friendly and helpful. He went out of his way to explain what he was doing and instructed me on how to do some basic servicing and repairs of my own. I'm glad I was able to find them, and I'll definitely be calling them in the future with any plumbing needs.

Angel arrived on time, evaluated the problem with my leaking toilet, and gave me the reasonable fix as opposed to the $1,000 unnecessary one. He even repaired my other toilet which had issues with flushing and the water filling up the bowl.
I would totally call Power Plumbing again and request Angel. Reasonable prices and quality work.

James! I can't thank you enough for your quality and expertise. He's been on a journey with our kitchen sink.
1. He thoroughly examined every aspect of our problem.
2. He offered effective solutions.
3. He clearly and patiently walked me through what my leak problem was and how it was going to get fixed.
4. Always on time.
5. Good nature and personality.
6. Very Covid safe and protective.
I truly can't thank him and the receptionist at power plumbing enough for helping us. Do yourself a favor and hire this company.

I first used the service of Power Plumbing over 10 years ago. They were recommended by the company who serviced my kitchen cabinets. I had always wanted a dishwasher and had been told by 3 different plumbers that it couldn't be done because of the location of my pipes.
Jason from Power Plumbing came to my home and stated calmly, "It can be done." In the 8 years that I had that dishwasher I never had a problem. And so when I decided to upgrade my appliances, I called Power again and requested Jason. Once again Jason installed my new dishwasher with no problem.

Promptly responded to our after hours emergency! Our plumber, Angel, took time to review and explain the problem and fix it. Then he made sure we were able to get the space back to normal (helped move washer, dryer and get water cleaned up). He then even went with us to confirm that our downstairs neighbor (who had been affected by the problem) felt confident in the solution. Angel lived up to his name! I will definitely use Power Plumbing again and highly recommend!

Winner and still champion, Power Plumbing. They've saved that day yet again for our home with little to no pain and not a ton of dough. Yes, they charge more than some, but using union work that lasts and is done professionally and with expertise comes with a price. But the long term outcome with a job done perfectly, pays for itself.
A very professional office staff and plumbers.
Thank you!

I had a lousy experience with Power Plumbing. Here's why:
1. The Power Plumbing team found that the main line was clogged with tampons and this was the main issue. However, I had another clog happen 1 week later, so I called out another service (I couldn't afford another $1K) that rodded the line (for 1/4 of the Power Plumbing price) including a camera scope and they found a collapsed drain line.
2. The other plumbers that came out the 2nd time said the 1st rodding was not a great job, as there were still tree roots in the pipes. So I'm lead to believe the 1st job wasn&apos

Power Plumbing is an excellent company. Mike B. installed a new faucet at my condo today. He was extremely polite, courteous and did a fabulous job. During the installation he ran into a few problems and went way above and beyond to rectify the issues. I highly recommend Power Plumbing for all your plumbing needs.
