Get matched with top drain cleaners in Lake Bluff, IL

"After the big spring rains, water began seeping into my basement at several locations. I could see tree roots encroaching on the sump pump and assumed that drain tile was clogged resulting in water pressure strong enough to seep through the joint between the foundation wall and the floor. Tim explained that tree roots should be killed off with copper sulfate and that seepage was likely the result of cracks in the foundation wall that are covered up by the drywall. He said a single leak can appear in multiple locations as it travels along the 2x4's anchored to the floor. We talked about how I could go about finding cracks. He showed me the machine he would use if I decided to have him clear out the drains and warned that the silt and debris may tear up my sump pump. His focus was on helping me understand what my options are, not selling me a service I may not need and for that I'm grateful. I will definitely call him back when the time comes."

"Very responsive service. Installer was very knowledgeable and replaced my sanitary ejector pump and cleaned up very professionally."

"Terrence Spranger was my plumber. His quote was fair. He was on time to the job. He replaced my hot water tank and shut off valve. He suggested placing a tray under the tank that has a drain hose just in case the new tank eventually leaks then it won’t run all over my basement. He had the model and serial numbers added to my receipt for insurance purposes. He was very personable and put the customer first. He went beyond what was expected of him to do. Thank you"

"We called several plumbers who had previously done work on our house...none were equipped or willing to do the work that needed to be done. Only Reliance Plumbing was even willing to engage the problem -- coming out on the day we called -- and for that we are extremely grateful. Rather than try to talk us into an expensive flood control system that we couldn't afford, Alex took it apart and put it back together again, discovering the check valve broken but the gate valve working fine...it was still in working order. We've since used it and it appears (knock on wood!) to be back in business. Thank you, Alex, for all your hard work and for your commitment to doing a job that others found daunting. You're one of a kind."

"Sam D'A was a pleasure to work with! He was very professional, courteous, knowledgeable, took the time to explain everything and gave great suggestions and tips. He is genuine personally and in his work ethic. He did amazing work, was efficient, clean and reviewed everything with me to make sure I was happy. I trust him and he will be my 'Lifeline' -- I highly recommend him!"

"Aqua Doctors is my go-to for any plumbing needs. I trust Paul at AD with any plumbing situation. While working on an issue on a bathroom faucet, he kindly unclogged the drain on another sink."

"Tub drain was severely clogged. Thomas quickly and efficiently unclogged the drain and ensured that everything was running smoothly. He cleaned everything up afterwards as well. I will definitely be calling them again when I need a plumber."

"Outstanding customer service provided by Sean when I needed a really bad drain backup cleared. He quickly came out to my home IN THE EVENING and took care of clearing my drain as well as the mess that was there from the stinky and gross overflow. When he finished the job he gave me some great tips on how to avoid this from happening again. So happy with his service and the bonus recommendations to keep my drain clean and clear. Highly recommend Legendary... and Sean! He has helped me with my furnace and my AC previously and is a great tech that knows his stuff! He's quick, polite and cleans up everything when done. BEST HVAC TECH & PLUMBER!!"

"The work was done promply and very, very efficient. Did a great job I would recommend Code Plumbing to anyone. Very reasonably priced also discount for seniors, which comes in handy"

"It went great. Chris was everything you would want in a contractor. He was clear with what the problem might be and upfront with a potential cost. He was also courteous and great about communication. We have an older home and ultimately Chris had to do some rodding to clear the floor drain. It was great working with Chris and I would certainly reach out to him again for any future plumbing needs."
