"Sunday March 28, 2021 I had the pleasure of working with Aqua Doctors Plumbing at 1304 Eastview Drive Waukegan, IL 60085. At home there were two (2) small gas leaks at connection points with my furnace and the stove. They were the first to reply when I initiated the request for quotes on Saturday 3/27. They scheduled an appointment for the next day between 11-1 pm. They arrived at the beginning of the window of time they quoted (yippee). I was prepared to provide shoe covers due to the pandemic. They were respectful of safety measures and had their own shoe covers and masks in hand already. Bravo! Chris and Rob were very good at providing and explanation of services to be rendered. A consultative approach was used and appreciated. They did not talk down to you as the client/non-plumber in the room. They worked expeditiously and thoroughly resolving both issues. I also had them quote a larger job due to this good experience. I found them to be reliable and I’m sure you will too! Thank you, Aqua Doctors! Kind regards, Major J. Johnson (retired)"

"We had a horrible smell in our crawl space and thought we had dead mice down there and found an exterminator on Angi, but it turned out to be a sewer leak and there was sewer water down there. Drains Inc. came out right away and rodded out the sewer pipes. They were completely blocked by tree roots! Tim and his son took care of everything the same day and let us know there was black mold in our crawl space. They recommended a restoration company and they came out the same day. We were very impressed with how fast and professional they were! We’ll definitely call them for all of our plumbing needs in the future! Thanks so much!"

"We are new homeowners and had a hole in our septic tank made of concrete block, which was sending wastewater into the foundation/basement of the home. It was my first time using Angie's List, and I would recommend Illinois Sewer and Drain to anyone. Joe and his team of experts solved our issue immediately at an affordable price. They even went above and beyond to install a sump pump in our basement to help with the rain water. Quality work!!"

"I just won a beautiful water heater from Legendary Service, and they were amazing. The installation was quick, easy, and clean. The owners came down personally to make sure everything went smoothly. Very nice people and I would definitely go to them for all my plumbing and heating needs!"

"They had to come out twice as the first plumber they sent did not know what the problem was. They broke the concrete top covering the access hole and did not even mention it. Other than that, the work was done and we have not had any other problems"

"I was fresh out of surgery and realized I should have changed out one of my toilets to an ADA height fixture. Rey understood my problem and got me into his schedule as quickly as he could. He had one of his guys pick one up the next morning and came out to install it for me. Rey and Code Plumbing will be my first call the next time I need a plumber."

"We have had a problem with our main building drain line clogging once a year, every year, since we purchased our home 14 years ago. We had it cleared around Thanksgiving of 2022 and it was again blocked only 2 months later. Fed up, I wanted to understand what the exact problem was, and proceed with fixing it. Tim and I spoke at length and therein I explained the history behind the issue (including experience from rodding the line myself on previous occasions). Tim explained what he thought the problem might be, based on his experience, and discussed various options including firm costs (not the "well, it will cost somewhere between $5 and $50,000" BS). We talked for about 30 minutes whereas conversations with other plumbers usually lasted all of 3 minutes wherein they explained how much it would cost, how they expected to be paid, and when they could come out. Tim showed up promptly at the agreed-upon time with Pedro and the two of them went to work. Without going into details, those two spent approximately 4.5 hours working my issue during which time they mechanically rodded the line 5-6 times, ran a camera into the pipe following each rodding, and then hydro-jetted it twice (might have been three times and they inspected the line using the camera after each hydro-jetting as well). I paid extra for the hyrdo-jet but I knew that they would probably need to resort to this following our phone call and again, I understood going into it exactly what the cost would be. These guys really busted their tails (other plumbers were typically in and out in an hour or less) and from what I could actually see via the camera, Tim and Pedro appeared to fix the problem once and for all. I spent a lot of time with them (as an engineer, I am curious by nature) and I felt like there were times when they could have said "Yeah, good enough" but they would talk and say "yeah, we should really do [this] again." In summary, Tim and Pedro were very professional, VERY hard-working, and extremely thorough, and I received a service that I feel was far in excess of that provided by anyone previously. Tim is the only person that I will call in the future should I need this service again (but I doubt it!). Finally, there were not surprise or escalated costs. Fantastic experience! Thanks Tim and Pedro!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Avoid any contractor who fails to provide a state license number or ignores required permits for your plumbing project. A professional will always include necessary inspections and comply with local sewer and backflow prevention codes. If a professional pressures you to skip the inspection phase to save time in IL, consider that a major warning sign and hire another expert.

Helpful?

Address immediate issues like burst pipes from freezing temperatures, sewer backups after heavy rain, and failed sump pumps due to Gurnee having a high water table. Fix broken water heaters immediately during winter to ensure your home stays safe. Schedule non-urgent plumbing tasks like minor fixture drips, slow drains, or water softener servicing for a later date.

Helpful?

Improper gas line connections and backflow preventer installations create severe safety hazards. Connecting sewer laterals incorrectly causes sewage backups, while routing sump pump discharges to the wrong location violates local codes. In Gurnee, failing to insulate pipes in exterior walls guarantees burst pipes during winter. Always insist on lead-free materials to protect your drinking water during any plumbing update.

Helpful?

Your plumbing timeline depends on local permit processing and inspection schedules. Excavation work in IL requires multiple sessions due to high groundwater tables or frozen winter ground conditions. Discovering complex root intrusions in older sewer lines also extends the project. Additionally, sourcing specific replacement parts for older homes splits a diagnostic visit from the final repair.

Helpful?

Keep your family safe during plumbing work by covering open sump pits in your basement to protect small children and pets. Ensure carbon monoxide detectors function properly when servicing gas water heaters. Since older Gurnee homes feature lead pipes, avoid drinking tap water until the system is flushed. Always plan ahead for pet displacement during extensive flood control installations.
