The 15 plumbers serving Monee, ranked.

We read 2,278 reviews across Google, Yelp and BBB for the 47 plumbers serving Monee — including the one-star reviews other directories bury — and ranked them the way we'd rank them for a friend. The number that matters most here: only 22 of the 47 list 24-hour service — if it's the middle of the night, start with those. Rankings are not for sale.

Monee's problem isn't finding a plumber; it's telling them apart — the median rating here is 4.8, and when everyone has five stars, the stars stop helping. 23 of these companies carry 100+ reviews — enough history for real patterns to show. The patterns differ more than the ratings do: 39 of the 47 have a repeated complaint pattern in their reviews — quotes that grew mid-job, unreturned callbacks — flagged and quoted on their cards below. One number worth knowing: only one company in this radius — Calumet City Plumbing — sits below 4.0 (3.7). Across the reviews we analyzed, the work named most often is sewer work and water heaters.

How we rank — the 60-second version

What we read: for each plumber, up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB — the full text, not just the stars. For this page: 887 reviews across 15 businesses.

What moves a plumber up: repeated, independent evidence of showing up when promised, fair and upfront pricing, and work that holds. One glowing review counts for little; twenty that agree count for a lot.

What moves a plumber down: repeated complaint patterns — surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — especially when they show up on more than one platform.

What never moves the ranking: money. One clearly labeled sponsored slot may appear above this list; it never changes the order below it.

Our take on each plumber is our opinion, grounded in the reviews we quote on this page. Full methodology ↓

4.8 (685 Google reviews) 15.3 mi from downtown MoneeNot a 24/7 shop

BBB A+ accredited with 4.8 across 685 Google reviews; reviewers cite ETA texts/calls, on-time arrivals, and water heater explanations. One 1-star user got a 1-5pm window then was turned away at 4pm for a busted pipe, and a 2-star sewer-odor visit felt like only basic checks.

Why we're cautious

  • Scope-of-coverage surprise at the door: technician arrived inside the booked window but declined to work on the busted pipe, leaving the customer without service (1 of 80 reviews)
  • One customer was given a 1-5pm window, the tech arrived at 4pm, then was told the busted pipe was not covered — no service rendered (1 of 80 reviews)
  • A recurring sewer-odor diagnostic visit was described as basic checks only, with details and reasoning pulled out of the tech rather than volunteered (1 of 80 reviews)

To be fair

  • Techs (Brandon, Emilio, Branson, Frank) text/call with an ETA before arriving and clean up after the job (cited in 4 of 80 reviews)
  • Branson A walked one homeowner through the water heater diagnosis step by step and the price came in lower than expected (cited in 1 of 80 reviews)
  • Responded late evening and on a weekend for one Carpentersville-area customer who called it the best plumbing company they have used (cited in 1 of 80 reviews)

Why we're cautious

  • Single but detailed pricing complaint: customer felt grossly overcharged for routine faucet and toilet repairs — later resolved by management, but initial quote-to-charge gap was large enough to file a 1-star review (1 of 5 reviews)
  • 1-star reviewer reported gross overcharge on 4 minor jobs (2 dripping faucets, toilet wax ring, water stains) before management intervened and resolved the dispute (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Dan M returned post-job without charging a service call to fix a missed main-line leak obscured by a homeowner's prior jury-rig — billed nothing for the follow-up (cited in 1 of 5 reviews)

  • Follow-up on quotes can be inconsistent: one reviewer waited 3 weeks (May 15–June 1) with no estimate or callback after initial diagnosis (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Exceptional workmanship quality: 3 of 5 reviews specifically praise professional installation, cleanliness, and attention to detail (cited in 3 of 5 reviews)
  • Fast service delivery on completed jobs: multiple reviewers note same-day or quick appointment availability and timely completion (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)
  • Knowledgeable technicians who explain work clearly: Tyler specifically praised for communication and educating homeowners on repair vs. replacement options (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)
What reviewers praise
Tyler replaced our water heater, he explained what was wrong with our 6 year old one and the costs associated with repairing it. Tyler also informed us of the cost and advantage of replacing the old one. The replacement was fast, professional, and he left …

The most critical take we found
I called for sewer rodding service and had an appointment set up quickly. On May 12th the plumbers arrived at the appointment time and proceeded with opening up the sewer rod out. It was determined that there was a separation in the sewer line and they could …

4.7 (205 Google reviews) 11.4 mi from downtown Monee

Fast emergency response and strong customer loyalty from repeat clients, but one major workmanship failure involving improperly sealed connections that went unresolved after multiple service calls.

Small sample — we've analyzed only 5 of 205 reviews so far. Treat this as a first read.

Why we're cautious

  • Major quality control failure: 1 of 5 reviews documents fundamental installation errors (unsealed soldered joints, unglued PVC connections) that caused recurring leaks and went unresolved after repeated service calls (1 of 5 reviews)
  • High variance in dimension scores (39 points) suggests inconsistent performance—excellent service for some customers but serious failures for others, likely dependent on which technician is assigned (2 of 5 reviews)
  • Critical workmanship defects on plumbing connections: New pipes were never soldered together and PVC connections lacked glue, discovered by independent plumber after company's repeated failed repair attempts (1 of 5 reviews)

To be fair

  • Fast emergency response with same-day service: 2 of 5 reviews specifically mention arriving within 2 hours or next-day completion during emergencies (cited in 2 of 5 reviews)
  • Strong repeat customer base with consistent quality: One long-term customer reports 6-7 successful jobs over time at fair pricing (cited in 1 of 5 reviews)
  • Professional crew communication and respect: 3 reviews mention knowledgeable technicians, clear explanations, and respectful treatment of homes (cited in 3 of 5 reviews)
What reviewers praise
Highly recommend Able &Willing .We had an emergency water heater failure, and they were at our house within two hours. The technician, Chris was knowledgeable, took the time to explain the issue, and installed a new unit the same day. He kept the work area …

The most critical take we found
Would not recommend!! Still having issues from when they came and “fixed” our plumbing. Had them out numerous times to fix a leaking toilet and shower. Sometimes they would show up, sometimes they wouldn’t. Amanda was doing her best communicating and I don’t …

What reviewers complain about in Monee

The repeated complaint patterns our read surfaced, business by business — each links to the card where the supporting quotes live. How we find these →

  • Flow Right PlumbingScope-of-coverage surprise at the door: technician arrived inside the booked window but declined to work on the busted pipe, leaving the customer without service
  • Feikema Plumbing & SanitationSeptic inspection using 'disconnected employee' flagged as gross negligence in 1 review — inspection did not meet VA Minimum Property Requirements, caused post-closing repair failures
  • Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water CleanupWarranty claim denied within 6-month window — tech blamed customer for the recurring issue; customer paid emergency rates.
  • Kevin Szabo Jr Plumbing and SewerOne verified account of technician forging customer check signature after customer forgot to sign; plumber also demanded extra charge for actual reported problem.
  • Trailblazer PlumbingSingle but detailed pricing complaint: customer felt grossly overcharged for routine faucet and toilet repairs — later resolved by management, but initial quote-to-charge gap was large enough to file a 1-star review
  • Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Will CountyYelp 1-star: $500 faucet cartridge replacement leaked again within a week; second visit also failed; Yelp reviewer paid $500 for a problem that required a full valve replacement they weren't told about upfront.
  • Reichelt PlumbingSurprise fee pattern: reviewer called for faucet estimate, told fee waived if job completed — tech arrived, quoted a number, then charged more per a Yelp complaint. surprise_fees theme=1 in signal data.
  • Reichelt Plumbing2-star Yelp review: ejector pump replacement left trail of filth through the house and trip level set incorrectly — baseline workmanship failures on a routine job.

How we rank the plumbers on this page

  1. We read the reviews — all of them we can get. For each plumber serving Monee we pulled up to 100 recent reviews from Google, Yelp and BBB and read the full text. For this page: 887 reviews across 15 businesses.
  2. Patterns beat anecdotes. A plumber moves up when independent reviewers keep describing the same behavior: showing up when promised, quoting before working, work that holds. One rave changes nothing.
  3. Complaints count double when they repeat.Surprise fees, missed appointments, pressure sales — when the same complaint appears across reviewers (or across platforms), it caps how high we'll rank a business regardless of its star average.
  4. Money never moves the ranking.A plumber can buy the clearly-labeled sponsored slot at the top of the page — visibility, not endorsement. A business we wouldn't recommend can't buy the slot at all, and no payment changes the ranked order.
  5. Our take is our opinion.It's grounded in the reviews we quote and count on this page — check our evidence and disagree with us if you like. That's the point of showing it.
Every quotation on this page is reproduced verbatimfrom a publicly posted review and attributed to its author, star rating, platform and date. Star averages and review counts are Google's (or Yelp's) as of our last data pull. “Rating mix” charts describe only the set of reviews we analyzed, which we state on every card. Read the full policy — including what we do not do — on our methodology page.
