Who Rates Best (& Worst) in the Chicago Area? Now You'll Know.
|
Your plumbing is not often exciting. It will go on for years, faithfully filling, flowing, and flushing. As a pipe leaks water through your kitchen ceiling, however, the excitement may be more than you can stand. You need a plumber. There are firms out there that will soak you, but we’ve found dozens that do top-quality work at a good price.

CHECKBOOK provides subscriber comments on their experiences with the firms they use. Please remember that individual subscriber comments are informal. Subscriber comments may give you insight into the types of features and problems that exist in a service field, but are not the best basis for selecting or rejecting a specific firm. To assess the quality of a firm's performance, we recommend that you give more weight to the percentages of favorable ratings. Those percentages are generally based on much larger numbers of consumers' ratings (the number of consumer ratings is noted above).
|
As You Can See Below, Some Plumbers Get High Praise from Their Customers. Some Others Don't. So Choose Carefully.
Here Are a Few Samples of the Thousands of Comments CHECKBOOK Has Collected on Hundreds of Different Plumbers.
