company. I hired Vega's landscaping to remove a concrete patio and install a small brick patio. The price was great, so I hired them. But I had to repeatedly call them to inquire when they were going to start, and once started, when they were going to finish. Then the problems began, within a couple of weeks of the completion (sinking bricks, poor drainage, etc). Unfortunately, I had already paid since I thought they were a reputable organization. They have still not returned my many messages, requesting a discussion on how to repair the patio.

The plumber who did the repairs was very nice and professional. He did a great job with the installations/repairs and cleaning up the old parts. We are very happy with the service we received from ATR and will be using them again in the future.
The kitchen sink was unclogged and cleaned afterwards and checked to see that it was fixed. Also the plumber (George)
was friendly, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain why the problem occurred and had helpful suggestions on how
to prevent the problem in the future. I highly recommend him and Excel

They had a large selection of materials to pick from especially in the quartz at their showroom in Park Ridge. They also have sinks and faucets at the showroom. I purchased the new sink from them along with the counters but once they install the new sink you have to supply your own sink cups/drains. They also will not do any plumbing so you have to hire some else for the new sink and faucet hook up, which they tell you ahead of time. I was very pleased with the work performed. One glitch came up after they were done with the job and left I realized that they did not haul away the old counters and left them on my driveway. After calling Masters they got a hold of the two man crew who then returned and removed the old debris which they were supposed to do before they left.. Masters apologized for the error.
Very pleased with the new quartz counters. I had a lot of counter surface to replace including an island and backsplash.

FAQs for sink repair projects in Northfield, IL
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
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.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
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.
