Carpenter did not return next day (Friday) and did not hear from anyone, so when no one showed up Monday am, called lead carpenter, went straight to voicemail. Called Curt, went straight to voicemail. Received a call about a half hour later from project manager, who apologized but said tub was still in limbo. He ultimately solved the problem the following day by locating one in East Moline, IL and driving there himself to pick it up. At that point received a call from Curt apologizing for the situation and offering to make it up to us with a gift card to a restaurant or cleaning service. The rest of the process went smoothly, carpentry, plumbing, finishes are all excellent. Final install was curtain rod and carpenter suggested we wait for one that didn't require drilling into the marble panel surround, so we asked him to order a different one and it was installed the following week.

When we started to interview contractors for a major remodel of our basement, Steve was the only contractor out of the 4 we interviewed that provided additional advice and alternatives. Those alternatives made for a much improved final product. Steve is also one those rare construction types that actually listens to the customer, mulls over options and alternatives, then describes back to you his interpretation of the work so everyone is assured on ?being on the same page?. Steve explains why or why not something can be done. He actually educates the consumer so informed decisions can be made and future projects will run much smoother. There was a substantial amount of work required for our basement renovation/remodel. Steve ran new electrical to add outlets and light switches, moved water pipes, built walls & closets, laid flooring, stomped ceiling, and installed a new bathroom with vanity, shower, & toilet. Steve is also a stickler for quality ? whether that be in his own labor or the work of others. He found 2 instances where the original builders had cut corners which caused the residence to be unsafe. Again, Steve pointed this out, explained why it was wrong, what the risks were to leaving it as-is, and gave us a choice of whether to correct it now, later, or leave it. Be forewarned, if you are obsessive about promptness and timely appointments, you may find fault with Steve. If you have a 5:30 appointment, prepare that Steve may not show up until 6:00. That?s because he is providing the same quality service to another customer as he will provide to you. Steve very willingly and without concern of time will stay until all your questions are answered, you are satisfied, and he knows you understand and are comfortable with decisions and work quality. If that means explaining something 2 or 3 times, Steve does it without hesitation. Sometimes, that concern for customer satisfaction runs him late to appointments. Personally, I?d rather have a caring contractor than a punctual one. The quality of Steve?s work is near perfection. He takes enormous pride in his work and it shows. Unlike other contractors who had to hire out a lot of the specialty work (plumbing & electrical for example), Steve can do it all (except laying carpet; he did an excellent job laying laminate flooring). This skill means a generally lower per hour charge (less overhead). I highly recommend Steve and Around the Home for any major renovation work. He did a tremendous job on our basement facelift."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/il/rochester/around-the-home-reviews-6301267.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"USA Bath","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"IL","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Dennis S."},"reviewBody":"The worker showed up on time and ready to go.

There was a lot of in and out of the house as the acrylic siding had to be cut to fit. I had cleared an area in the garage for the work. The driveway could have also been used. In advance of the work, Bath Planet requested an area be cleared for cutting the siding and other work. The clean up was good. No problems. The worker was very polite and considerate.

I'd also suggested over the phone that the leak we had under the sink might be caused by the garbage disposal, though I wasn't sure. The plumber (and her intern) were very courteous when they arrived, and immediately put cover booties on over their shoes. The plumber announced she thought it was probably the garbage disposal causing the leak, asked me if I wanted her to install a new garbage disposal and gave me the prices of the those Hays stocked. When I chose the garbage disposal that I wanted, she and her intern had to leave and go back to the office in order to get the disposal to install. They returned in about 30 minutes - the time frame she gave me - and completed the installation. All work was done competently and quickly and she carefully cleaned up the work space afterward. I have no complaints about her work or the quality of the disposal that was installed. My only complaint is the time frame (initially about 20 minutes after the time I thought she would be there and the additional 30 minutes for disposal pick up). The disposal, which was not top of the line, seemed a bit pricey, but it works well and I have every confidence it was installed properly.

Great! The plumber called prior to arriving and was courteous while at my home. He analyzed the problem and gave a quote to fix. I agreed to it and then he went to work - he had the parts needed on his truck and was done within 30-45 minutes. Really nice and provided answers to my questions....

Fantastic!! Huge Thank You to Bruce Peterson, Dan,Dale, & Mike! These guys tore out our old enormous jetted tub, tore out our "space ship" shower, tile floor and leaky, "glass" block window. Dale painted our vanity cupboard - so nice! They only took 10 working days to give us a beautiful,...
Well the service and repair went relatively well but the price......Yowza! We had another plumbing company come out recently because we thought it was leaking again. They did the same exact thing but only charged $70.00. Another issue we had is that we had called Jim out a few weeks before...

And yes they had to work at , running a smaller cutter . Then they went up in size to the large one , granted it took some time . But it was done in 45 minutes give or take. He shows up by himself worked at it for about 5 minutes started having problems I get all the others have had causing some help I thought they were just loading up the machine apparently never got through this to the center line gave up on it immediately and wanted to get paid which I did. Never even tried to run it back and forth like MasterRooter just poor work. manship and attitude. At 265 for the first 30 minutes, one person and then just give up in the first 10 minutes. Master policy is 225 for as long as the job takes and if they can not get it they charge you $100 and of course they got it . Did four runs to the main . They never even pulled out a root

"The pictures do not really show how tedious this job was. These two men, associated with Ask Michael, gave me a quote to rehang a number of my kitchen cabinate doors. They had been badly done prior to my purchase of the house and were failing, to the point of falling off. They purchased the necessary hardware, came back the next day and did the installation. They were on time and worked until the job was finished. Their work quality and concern to get the work done correctly was top drawer. And they were honest, telling me the quote for materials was high, and revising their bill lower. Overall I was very happy and will use them again."

FAQs for plumbing projects in Chatham, IL
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Who will do the work? Are they all licensed and qualified plumbers?
What happens if any breaks or damages occur?
What is your response time in an emergency?
Is cleanup included in the quote?
Do your services come with a guarantee?
Discussing these questions with your plumbing contractor will help eliminate future issues and clarify expectations.
Before your plumber pays you a visit, it’s a good idea to clean up any boxes, garbage, or other obstacles that could be in their way. In addition, it’s best practice to clean the area that needs to be inspected or worked on, like a toilet, for example. Make sure to keep kids and pets out of the way once the plumber arrives.
Typically, plumbing repairs cost about $325 per job but can range from $175 to $4,000 or more. Simple fixes, such as a toilet repair, will be less expensive at around $150 to $400. However, if you have a pipe that has burst, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 or more.
The project that needs to be completed, the size of your home, and the type of plumbing pipes you have can all impact the final cost. External factors such as supply chain issues and shortage of materials all play a part in how much this repair might be.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
