"After trying several home remedies towards the end of a week we decided to secure professional help on a Saturday. Charlie returned our call within minutes and arranged to come towards the end of the day on Saturday. He explained what he was doing, was efficient, discovered and replaced an unrelated rusted pipe and cleaned up the inevitable unrestrained water from nearby surfaces."

"Mattco has been performing repairs and regular plumbing maintenance at my 116 year old Chicago 2-flat for many years. Over time with experience I have gained trust in Mattco Plumbing to get me out of big jams with the plumbing in this old building. Just recently Matt repaired the 2nd floor toilet drain line in the ceiling above my 1st floor bathroom in a very tight spot. I have had other plumbers walk away from the repair or just wanting to do the band aide repair. Matt was able to replace the entire drain line above the ceiling. I watched him do the repair. It wasn't easy, but he got it done. I have peace of mind because I know the repair will last for ever. I'm in my 50th year working and owning an HVAC company. I know a good technician when I see one. I trust in Mattco Plumbing."

"Jim & Rob handled the service. When they realized that they were running late, they called early on to let me know. They were a completely in sink team. They were efficient, knowledgable and extremely courteous. My father had owned his own plumbing company post WWII, and was one of the first licensed plumbers in the state of Illinois; accordingly, I watched & had many plumbing questions regarding the install. Jim & Rob patiently shared their expertice. High recommend. A great experience."

"Week before last we thought we had a clogged toilet.. It was apparently the main sewer line. We called a commercial franchise plumber out and $550 later we thought everything was fixed. This was on a Thursday. By the following Monday we were experiencing the same thing. We call them back out because it was a 6 month warranty. They diagnosed the issue stating we needed to get the main sewer line ( about 1-3 feet) replaced and they would need to dig a huge hole in the basement and etc.. Estimate was more than a small car. I called around to a few other companies and got more expensive quotes. I called A1 Patrick's Plumbing & Sewer Services - Plumbing Contractor & Plumbing Installation and he came out the same night ( last tuesday) and gave me a resonable quote for the same services. When I tell you I am so glad I called this man. My house is 70 years old and my family has lived here for 26 years. This sewer line was CLOGGED... his team dug the hole, replaced the pipes, cleaned them out and discovered tree roots and 4 feet of stuff that shall not be named. He & his team installed a cleanout in case this happened again we wouldn't have an issue getting it cleaned. This company hands down had excellent service and the owner was respectful, nice and delivered what he promised plus a 10 year warranty ."

"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 called them when my sump pumps (primary and backup) dies and I had water in my basement. Rob told me over the phone what it would cost to replace them, and said he could have someone there in two hours. I had talked to three other plumbers before I heard from RA Mechanical. NONE of them could give me a window of when their tech could come. No offers of pricing, either. A licensed, experienced, competent plumber arrived in my two-hour window. He cleared away the broken equipment, installed the new equipment, cleaned up, and was on his way. Cost was exactly the estimate. I would RA again in heartbeat. Rob and his people are first-rate."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Watch out for contractors who claim permits are unnecessary for significant plumbing work, like water heater replacements or sewer line modifications. Hillside requires permits and inspections for most alterations. Another major red flag is a professional who applies Chicago-specific codes instead of the required state codes. Always verify that your chosen contractor holds an active state license to ensure your home remains safe and compliant with IL regulations.

Helpful?

Severe winter cold creates significant freeze-thaw stress, requiring professionals to bury water lines below the 42-inch frost depth to prevent frozen pipes. Spring snowmelt and heavy summer rainstorms overwhelm local storm systems, causing basement sewer backups across IL. To combat this, contractors install overhead sewer conversions and backwater valves. Hot, dry summers also cause clay-heavy soils to shrink, which shifts underground pipes and accelerates joint separation in older sewer lines.

Helpful?

Pay attention to reduced water pressure or discolored water, as these indicate internal corrosion in older galvanized steel pipes. In many post-WWII Hillside homes, a single slow drain or gurgling sound points to systemic deterioration in aging cast iron lines. Additionally, a single sewer backup strongly signals tree root intrusion in clay sewer laterals. A constantly running sump pump points directly to failing drain tile systems around your foundation.

Helpful?

Timeframes for plumbing projects depend heavily on permit processing and seasonal demand. Standard permits in Hillside take several days to two weeks to process. During peak seasons, like spring rainstorms or winter freezes, scheduling a non-emergency professional adds another two weeks to your start time. Projects involving municipal water mains or sewer infrastructure require extra coordination, extending the timeline further. Emergency repairs bypass standard permit waits to resolve immediate hazards quickly.

Helpful?

Older properties with original plumbing systems mix galvanized, copper, and cast iron materials, requiring complex code-compliant transitions. Full basements with below-grade fixtures demand ejector pumps or overhead sewer systems to drain properly. Mature tree roots infiltrate clay sewer laterals in Hillside, requiring extensive root removal or full lateral replacement. Finally, properties with lead service lines face strict regulatory requirements, triggering full line replacements and coordination with the local water utility.
