Let me just say, Jake and the other guys were great no complaints, but Jeremey is terrible, he is a liar. he didn't do a follow-up I had to reach out to him. he quoted me 5800 then 6495 then said he never said that, he said more other stuff but don't care to comment on it. so, I didn't need all the work done that was on the proposal, he refuse to give me some money back, So I had to reach out to the owner Moe, nice guy and very understanding he returned 800 of my money back. But after comparing other company's for the work that was done I was beat out of a lot of money. 4 different company' said no more than 2500 this this type of job. And for Jeremey to say his guys was union he had to pay them (REALLY). Lesson Learned.

This company did a sloppy job replacing a water meter. Mr. Traynor has a bad attitude. Not friendly at all. He did not relight the pilot for the hot water heater. Now my tenants do not have hot water. The lines need to be bleed for sediment and now there’s low water pressure. Very sloppy and unprofessional company. Don’t waste your time. Call someone else!

They send some guy to my house. I don’t know how they got the contract to switch out to water meters in my village . The guy asked my wife for a saw cause he didn’t have one. Then he turns off the valve to my water heater and never turns it on. I was working late, so my house had no water until I got home. My kids couldn’t take a bath for school the next day.

Have a serious sewer or water line issue? These are the guys. They are the best! They were not daunted by an issue of long standing regarding a broken sewer pipe that was causing issues well beyond unpleasant.Other companies did not seem to know how to solve the issue without massive unnecessary work. They couldn’t even find where the breaks in the pipe were. All they did was tell us how long the run is, like I didn’t know that, how it’s an old pipe, also not news, and that they couldn’t really give a quote. Calumet City came out, identified two breaks and their exact locations within an hour. Other companies couldn’t even figure out how to scope the line, and did not understand that the line had two clean outs. They didn’t know what that was in the backyard, and said it would have to go. It didn’t and it is an integral component to the system. It’s the second clean out for an unusually long run. And they believed me when I said there was a broken rodder in the line, and they identified that it was the cause of the breaks in the first place. And that had to have happened a long time ago. We’ll never know just who did the damage.They prepared a very fair quote in a very timely fashion that included all aspects of the work. This included the entire job, like new concrete, and even the garage door weather strip, so everything is as it was. Other companies only really offered recommendations for most of the work. Theseother companies also wanted open-ended contracts, so they could charge whatever they wanted. Do people really not understand what could result by signing a contract like that?It was well worth living with an issue until we found a company, the right company, that knows about old, and new, sewer and water lines. So glad we did wait, even if it was unpleasant.The team leader and team were terrific. They are all knowledgeable, arrive on time, friendly, have a sense of humor while doing pretty unpleasant work. And they took the time to explain what was going on before, during, and after.Understand, there are many companies that will tell you issues like an old broken sewer line will cost tens of thousands, maybe more. And from what was actually done that solved this long standing problem, those companies would not only have cost me well over treble the cost, but would have caused a whole lot of damage, and maybe the building. They said they’d need to tear out part of a fence, tear up a large established garden, and tear up the concrete floor of a large garage. One company wanted to completely reroute the entire line and tear up the basement, the long driveway and the newly done street and new sewer and water lines. They didn’t even know where to get an excavator of the proper size. And all they need to do was look from that second clean out they didn’t understand to find the problem. They wouldn’t do that when I asked them to. They gave excuses as to why they couldn’t.Thank you Calumet City! I am so glad that the city I live in uses your company to service the city’s water and sewer lines, and sent you guys to fix an issue they had with our water feed. And though the city didn’t tell me you were coming, your team looked to find me until they found the owner, before they started. With two large buildings, that took some looking. I am so glad the guys did.What a pleasure working with you was. And no “Hey Little Girl, what’s on your little mind.” Thank you for the respect and honesty.

The city of Joliet has a contract with this company to install new digital water meters. The gentlemen didn’t seem so happy for what? I don’t know. I asked a few questions and he kind of blew me off. So after the gentleman completed the digital water meter install in the basement. The signal box on the side of the house that the city gets its reading from. I asked how does this work. The gentleman looked at me with disgust and explained very distasteful. At this point I was aggravated. My intentions now in mind were “sir just finish and leave”. This has to be my first negative review I’ve ever left. It takes alot to get under my skin and this was it.

Very rude, threatened on city letter head to turn off my water if I didn't let them change my meter within 5 days. I have a job and you only work 8 to 3 that's not going to happen. On top of that the city said they didn't know anything about the letter and never authorized the plumbing company to make such threats. If that wasn't bad enough the guy damaged the closet the meter was in. Writing letters to all my elected officials today.
