I contacted this company for a quote on June 13 and possible repair to the shower and tub in my fathers home. I believe I spoke with Forest, the gentleman told me the repair should be simple. He asked me if I had recently had a hot water tank installed, which we did and he said it would cost $150 as it was probably just a clogged faucet. Someone would come in the morning at 9:00 am. The service man called to tell me it could be closer to 10:00 am. The serviceman that called was polite, I thought nothing of the time difference. The next morning at 9:55 am, the service man called to tell me he needed to cut into the wall behind the tub and repair the tub. He would be an eight hour job but he thinks the problem is the old pipes. The repair would cost $1,200. I was shocked so I got a second opinion. The repair cost $225 and was simply a clogged faucet, like the first gentleman indicated. I'm disappointed that the service man would try to overcharge my father and I. I had told him my father was ill and that was my mistake apparently. The company still charged us $150 which is expensive since they did not fix anything. On June 19th, I received a call from Water Works as they said the credit card declined for the transaction. I clarified to them that they had the right credit card number but also what amount we were being charged. I would not recommend this company despite the positive reviews they received as I feel they may be overcharging companies.
Description of Work: Service man was called for repair to shower and tub faucet which would not sprout water. The service man estimated the repair to be $1,200.00 and charged $150.00 for the estimate. This repair was done by another plumber in 15 mins as it was only a clogged sprout.

It was easy to disassemble and reassemble the faucet on the kitchen sink. They knew the aerator was clogged and should be cleaned without looking. They gave me a junior plumber award for fix-it-yourself skills.
Description of Work: Local, free, and convenient expert opinion on a kitchen sink issue gave instruction for me to fix it like the pro's. Their guarantee that they knew exactly what the issue was over the phone, resolved it step-by-step in a matter of minutes. I take confidence in their work and even tackled my bathroom sink on my own with success. Thank you for the follow-up call!

I am extremely pleased!!!

Water Works restored my faith in plumbing companies. They arrived on time and ready to work with a fully stocked truck. They quickly assessed my problem and gave me a fair price based on the work to be done. I was truly impressed with their attention to detail and committment to not consider the job done until it was done RIGHT. I would not hesitate to use Water Works again or to recommend the company to family and friends.
Description of Work: I had a clogged kitchen drain and toliet that wasn't flushing properly. The kitchen drain turned out to be a pretty major plumbing problem. The solution was to remove all existing piping and install new pipes not only under the sink but in an adjoining cabinet. It was also necessary to power rod a pipe leading to the basement. The kitchen job took about 4 hrs to complete but when they left I had a new kitchen drainage system that was working perfectly. The toilet was less complicated requiring only a new toilet fill valve and supply line.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Water Works Plumbing & Sewers, Inc. I called them and they came out immediately. They fixed both of my toilets very efficiently and expediently. I was amazed that they completed the job so quickly. They showed me how to drain my hot water heater and didn't even charge me for the hose or the time it took to instruct me. I just called them again on another matter. Forrest Tucker, the owner, gave me suggestions to try over the phone just in case the problem could be easily resolved and I would not have to spend a lot of extra money. He and his staff are extremely personable, extraordinarily knowledgeable, and really care about their customers. I was very impressed, so much so, that as Treasurer of our condominium association, I am going to recommend them for all of our jobs. They were absolutely terrific!
Description of Work: One of my toilets was not flushing properly and I had the other one checked as well. I also had my hot water heater checked and drained.

It's not much fun to have water drip from a ceiling light fixture almost into your pancake batter on a Sunday morning. We called Worth Plumbing from our south side Chicago home, and two hours later they had arrived; found and fixed the problem; and left. Fred was very professional in his approach to finding the leak.
Description of Work: Fred from Waterworks Plumbing carefully isolated the cause of a leak and fixed the seal of a toilet efficiently and cheaply.

I had dealt with a clogged bathtub drain myself several days earlier with chemicals that seemed to do the job. About 4 days later, noticed water coming through the basement celing below. Mike came out within 1 1/2 hours after I called. Mike determined there was a crack in one of the pipes. He suggested we replace the whole drain and overflow, because it wasn't working properly, anyway. He was prompt, courteous and professional. Have used this company several times in the past, always with a good result.

Very happy and would use them again.
Description of Work: I had a leak under the kitchen sink. I have used Water Works before and was satisfied so I called them again. They came quickly and on time and diagnosed the problem, which unfortunately was a failure in the faucet. I went to a retailer that evening, and from the store called Mike to verify that what I was about to purchase would work in my application. Mike came back the following evening at my convenience and did the installation of the faucet, water control, and soap dispenser.

The company was quick to repsond and offered me 2 different time frames in which they would be out. The plumber Eric was able to quickly locate the source of the leak and fix the problem. ( I had been unable to duplictate the leak since the first time it happened.) While on site he was also kind enough to do a quick leak check on a toilet and explain the options I had for fixing a faucet. Based on the quick response time alone I would use them again.

Plumber arrived within 1/2 hour of my call - even though it wasn't for an emergency! Wow! In the bath, I have a hand-held shower hose which leaked at the wall attachment whenever the shower head was used. The plumber showed me in 10 minutes that a washer was improperly set, and I was able to tighten it with a pipe wrench. The plumber also suggested replacing the leaking kitchen faucet - something I will attempt to install myself (but will probably have to call Water Works again to fix my mistakes). All in all, it took less than 15 min, and cost me nothing except my own elbow grease (unless I call Water Works back to replace the kitchen faucet). The plumber. Mike, was courteous and professional, and extremely prompt. I am quite satisfied with the experience.
Description of Work: Diagnose, and repair (if possible): leak in hand-held shower sprayer connection - where hose connects to shower wall. Leak in kitchen sink when water is turned on fully.

The experience with with Water Works Plumbing has been very good. We have already recommended them to 3 other people. They have been very reliable. After we had already been using them we had a heavy rain and the water backed up in the basement. The owner came out at the end of a long day just to help us out.

Highly Recommended Family Business. Mr. Tucker correctly deduced the source of my low water pressure. He and his team worked hard, were careful, instilled a sense of trust, and cleaned up after they left. They all seemed determined to make sure I was happy with the work they?d done. I definitely was, and I?d easily hire them again.
Description of Work: Water Works dug a 6' L by 3' wide by 6' deep hole BY HAND in my front yard to repair a 1.5' section of a broken water main and a damaged sewer pipe. The house was built in 1928 so old (restrictive) valves were removed or replaced at the point of entry into the house (basement). They replaced old sections of the water main in the basement with new ones. The concrete floor was broken up and removed to reach one valve. When finished, they carefully filled the hole with new concrete and gave it a smooth, clean surface. Full pressure was restored to all areas where new pipe was added. All garage and basement drains were flushed at length and tested to make sure there were no more sewer leaks. In addition, they installed a new hot water heater with a proper and sturdy exhaust (carbon monoxide) vent to the outside.

I had all the parts ready for them. He was very informative, and I thought the price was a little high. I have not had any problems. He cleaned up after himself, and made sure that everything was working correctly. Forest, the owner, told me if I have any problems to call him. I was disappointed they did not have a senior discount.
