Bert is the best!!! Highly recommend for all your plumbing needs!! We contacted Bert on a Saturday at 10:30am after our toilet exploded and Bert arrived by 12:30. He was able to identify my problem as a broken sewer main outside with his camera equipment. Bert replaced the line at a fair price, on time, and without a mess. Thank you Bert you saved us!!!!

These guys are gorgeous, very professional. Bert is the best, he solved my problem within 8mins(accurate counting time). He arrived exactly at the appointment time. He helped me check the sewers and the mashing machine, turning out find a metal screw. Hard to believe, he charged no fee! I am very grateful for his help, saving me 800 bucks! Best service so far. read more

They were so responsive and quick to respond to my estimate as well as sending someone out. Bert was amazing and helped us relocate a gas line so our oven would fit better. In the process, he discovered that our building had a gas leak, which we would probably would have not even noticed. Cannot thank him enough. We will definitely be calling him for all our future plumbing needs. read more

Been meaning to write this for months! Sorry about the delay. My husband and I bought a house without knowing the horrors waiting for us under the concrete in the basement. When the sewer started backing up we called one company that didn't seem to have the time for us. Bert came and found a horribly broken sewer line. He ended up replacing 25 feet of sewer line, installing a back flow valve and a discharge pump, and fixing the (surprise) illegal pipework the previous owners had left under the floor. It was a huge job, but Bert and his crew worked efficiently and expertly even with the unforeseen complications and for a fair price. The whole crew was accommodating and friendly and had no problem working around our then 6 month old twins. We have had a few heavy rains since then and everything has worked beautifully. We will definitely be using them again for any plumbing needs! read more

What a positive experience! It's no wonder there are so many high reviews. We had a major issue with the main sewer line and are very happy and pleased to connect with Bert. Work had to be done both inside and outside our home. The indoor work required cutting though tile and jack-hammering through the concrete floor to get to the area where the house connects to the main line. Yikes! Bert and assistant Brendan fully protected the surrounding area, but more than that, when this extensive work was complete the area was spotless. Bert was timely and communicated all of the issues fully. And we believe the pricing for the job was very fair. Everything was handled quickly and professionally, even with the city inspections. We highly recommend Bert and All Rooter should you have any drain or sewer issue. read more

Juan was quick to call back and schedule a time to come out on the same day after I was out from work. Juan and his coworker worked quick and very complete. Very satisfied! read more

Bert is kind and thoughtful and does good work, all the 5 star reviews are well earned! We were closing on a house and needed an honest plumber to tell us about a sewer line that was rife with problems. The seller's plumber was continually lying about work that he said was done and every time we asked Bert to confirm the other plumber's work, the other plumber had not done the work. I was grateful to Bert for his availability and patience with the tumultuous process we had up to our house purchase/closing. He made multiple trips to scope the sewer line (oh, the drama!) and were thankful to have him on our side. When we finally got to the point that we were either going to get the house or not because of the communication problems around the sewer line, Bert stepped in and said he could do all the work needed for a set amount. We trusted him and bought the house, and we're so glad we did both! The execution of the work done by Bert was professional and prompt. Bert lets you know when he's going to be somewhere, and he follows through (so rare in any business!). Bottom line: Bert is the kind of person you can count on to do stellar work and to get the job done right. read more

Bert was great - I messaged on Yelp and received a response quickly. They offered a free estimate, and were available when I requested (I didn't have an emergency). Bert arrived well within the timeframe quoted, calling ahead of time as stated. I had a mysteriously backed up toilet, and Bert was able to fix very quickly after providing a free quote. I very much appreciated that Bert was not pushy at all when providing his quote and was more than happy to let me get additional quotes if I wanted. Thank you!! read more

The process of finding any home repair service is nerve wracking and difficult, I am skeptical, always. In my research, I found that Bert and All Rooter gave less than competitive rates. In addition, Bert was very responsive and honest. I called on a Friday and he came out on a Saturday - he would have come out on the Friday but my tenants were not avail. The sink line from dishwasher to kitchen sink was clogged and the grease trap was filled. He came and fixed and gave my tenant tips on how to slow down the process of something like this from happening. I never review on yelp but saw that Bert had a few reviews (which made me skeptical at first) so I wanted to put it out there that I was satisfied with the services he provided. read more

Same day service at affordable price ! Great service and deals ! My sink was clogged and needed new pipes read more

All Rooter - Plumbing Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

During the winter we discovered a broken pipe in our basement. We called around and had plumbers come by and give us their estimates until we happened upon All Rooter. All Rooter is local, a plus for us because we like to shop/do business in our neighborhood. Bert came by, assessed the job, gave us a fair price and took care of the problem in a day and a half. Our plumbing problem required having to break cement and replace old broken pipes. Bert went through the trouble of solving the problem in such a way that our finished basement was never touched. Bert was patient, explained what he was doing, thorough but fast and clean. Believe the reviews people! Bert is the man! read more

I had some minor problems with my plumbing and water heater , both times I called , the technician was at my house on time and very professional, he even did some minor maintenance to my water heater free of charge , and he gave me an estimate on replacing the water heater part just in case it kept acting up . I will definitely call them back if I need any other work done. read more

Thanks for the great job in our bathroom no more drips I will most definitely hire this company again for my future plumbing needs thanks again all rooter hydro jetting experts for the great service and making time for our needs. read more

I called All Rooter and Plumbing. I had a a bathroom sink that I was not able to use because of being blocked. Bert came and fixed the problem. The other problem I had was water coming out when using the kitchen sink and wash machines. He had to clean out all the grease out of the drains. He brought in a sludge truck in to pump out all the grease and hydrojetted the pipes. He showed me by running the camera from the beginning all the way out to the city pipes. The pipes were so clean you would have thought he put new ones in. I can only tell you that Bert is very honest and will explain to you everything before he starts the job. Once he is done with everything explains to you how to prevent it happening again. Thank you Bert and will always be calling you when my plumbing or sewer breaks. My building is over 100 yrs old and it does need work. read more

Bert showed up the same day I contacted him and fixed a clogged kitchen sink. Quick, efficient, and responsive.

I had a bathtub with standing water. No matter how many products I bought or baking soda and vinegar treatments I did, still standing water. I 'Yelped' for help, read a few reviews and landed on All Rooter and Plumbing. A very lucky day for me. I left a message and emailed, he was prompt in his response and was willing to come the same day, no drama. He fit me in. When he arrived, he came to work! He was thorough and very professional, thoughtful and kind. He cleaned out my bath drain (the trap) in no time. I am forever grateful to Bert and would reccomend him to anyone who needed a job well done! read more

All Rooter did a great job with all of our building's issues. He determined we had serious roots in the pipe along with a pitched pipe. His quote was very reasonable compared to his competitors. They came on time to replace the pipe and showed me what was being replaced. We had some issues on Sunday fairly last minute due to backlog and he came out to address them and did not charge extra. The clean up of the job was significantly better than what I expected. I will always use them for our building going forward. read more

Very knowledgeable and professional. Melinko went out of his way for us several times to try to fix a problem that wasn't his to fix. The whole company is great with customer service and very willing to keep the customer happy. I will only be using this company from here on out. 5 stars for the company and 10 stars for melinko! read more

After we got a quote from another company that was telling us that it might cost $1,000's in repairs, including a $450 camera inspection, we decided to get a second opinion. Bert charged us HUNDREDS less for a camera inspection and discovered that our main line was actually just fine, and that there was something / a possible root coming into the city's main past our property line under the street. We actually saved $1,000's of dollars just by having Bert come and take a look. AND he even changed out our toilet wax seal & rusted bolts for no extra charge. Bert is an honest straight up guy, not trying to sell you on big repairs. He explained that it might cost a lot if we had to rip up the floor to replace a broken sewer pipe, because we have a crawlspace, but that wasn't the case thankfully. Thanks Bert, Highly recommended! read more

Bert SAVED the day again. He changed the pipe under my sink and and stopped the leak. This has been driving me nuts for months. After multiple trip to Lowes and Home Depot I finally gave up an called him. Within 2 hours and 1 trip to Home Depot for parts Bert was able to fix it. Great guy!! read more

We had the pleasure of meeting Bert from "All Rooter" he was highly recommend from a close friend. My main drain pipe was clogged and all the sewage water completely flooded my basement and ruined our new carpet. Bert was extremely helpful, he explained what was going on and showed me what was clogging the drain. He was very professional and did an extremely good job! We highly recommend Bert from "All Rooter" for any plumbing issues. Thanks Bert!! read more

Bert and All Rooter saved our arses. A pipe burst in our master bathroom during the Polar Vortex when the same thing was happening all over the city. Pretty much every plumber in Chicago was working around the clock. We must have called 20 plumbers before reaching Bert. The majority of them said the soonest they could get to us would be 24-48 hours. Bert got to us in 20 minutes. He and his partner spent from 8pm to 12am (on a Friday no less) at our place. Locating the ruptured pipe required him to cut into both tile and drywall. In each case he was very careful to minimize the damage to limit the follow up repair work. Considering it was an after hours call (at a time when we were desperate) I feel like the charge for his services was very reasonable. Incidentally, his phone was ringing off the hook almost the whole time he was at our place. We were very lucky to have gotten through to him when we did. Then, in the days that followed, another unit in our building was experiencing water pressure issues related to the main shut off being turned on and off during the repairs to our ruptured pipe. He came back and fixed the problem free of charge. If we ever have another plumbing issue, we will definitely be calling Bert. read more

Bert came back today, about a year after the episode described above, to do a check-up and (if necessary) further rodding of the sewer line that had caused such serious problems for me and our entire small condo association. Let me just say that Bert is one of the most impressive building trade professionals and business owners I have known in my long life. If you ever have trouble with your sewer line (bathroom or kitchen), call him immediately and keep your fingers and toes crossed that he isn't already fully booked! I love you, Bert, and wish you the very best! I only wish I could take you with me to my new home three state lines away from Chicago (where I'll be moving soon), in case my sewer fails there!!! read more

When I bought my house 3 years ago I needed a good plumber because of a water main leak. Being disappointed by all my plumbers I tried Craigslist and found Bert. He came out and underbid my usual guy by almost over 15%. I was worried because of how big the job was. But Bert seemed very knowledgeable . They did everything they said and on schedule. The water main ran under the sidewalk and he was even able to get the cement work done. Now I use him at all my buildings. I have used him at least 10 time since. He was at one of my buildings today to rod the line and as usual; fast, great work and under budget. and he always does a great cleanup. Thank you To Bert and the crew at ALL. read more

Within 30 minutes of contacting All-Rooter regarding a clogged toilet, my call was returned first by Juan and then Bert. When Bert arrived, he not only checked my immediate concern, but explained, in simple terms, more about how my plumbing system worked than I had ever known as a 5+ year homeowner. His price was much more reasonable than the others I contacted regarding the same problem, and he was able to do the job immediately. Great work! read more

Had All Rooter come out to my house for a clogged kitchen drain. Bert was very professional and on time. He even reminded me about a coupon that was on Yelp for $50.00 off. He unclogged the drain and gave us a warranty. I would use them again if I have another plumbing problem. read more

I cannot say enough about Bert and his crew. First they showed up before the time scheduled and called just to let me know they were there. Rarely does that happen these days. Took his time to explain to me the way he goes about his business. The issue that occurred had been " fixed " by another plumber a few weeks ago. Bert made sure he took his time in cleaning the sewage line, ran the camera twice and even cleaned out the broken pieces that took an extra 20 minutes. Already going to use Bert for another job in the house. If you need someone that's professional, dedicated and kind do not hesitate to call Bert at All Rooter. 5 starts all the way. read more

I recently bought a home and I'm completely clueless when it comes to plumbing. I noticed that I was having issues with my tub contacted Bert. He was very helpful very knowledgeable. He showed up promptly fixed the problem in no time. You can definately tell from the gecko that your dealing with a professional. I would definately recommend his services. I live in the suburbs and that wasn't an issue. Prices are also very affordable. Thanks Bert! read more

We needed repairs to 2 of our toilets and got an immediate response and Bert arrived on time the following day. I then got a text from him stating he had done some homework and discovered that our tank had a recall. I was able to take that information and call the manufacturer and in 2 days had a brand new tank delivered for free. Would never have known about this and Bert saved us a lot of money. He then returned and had all repairs done within an hour. Super nice guy and knows his stuff. Even used the $50 off coupon for the labor. Excellent company and Bert was fantastic. Highly recommend using this company! read more

Bert is the man, awesome company to work with. They returned my call within minutes, came out for a free estimate next day, and the drains were taken care of with prompt, friendly service. Fair pricing and a great guy to work with, he even checked up on us the next day to ensure we were happy with the service. Thanks again and onto my relaxing clog free bath. read more

Bert was great. Very friendly and thorough. Called late on a Tuesday and he showed up right away.

I'd give 10 stars to Bert and his team if the site allowed. After I discovered a leaky kitchen faucet Friday morning, Bert showed up promptly and went above and beyond to repair the issue and save me from buying a new faucet. He meticulously took the entire faucet apart, checked every piece, and then ran out to get the needed part. Pricing was more than fair and I am thrilled to have a go-to plumber here in Chicago moving forward. Thanks to All Rooter for saving me here! read more

When we called All Rooter & Plumbing Sewer Drain we had a single job in mind. We had several estimates on the job already and were looking for a fair price and quality work. We got both with All Rooter & Plumbing. Plumber Bert came out assessed the job and gave us a fair price. Bert was very professional and efficient and did the job just as he described before he began the work. The plumbing work was quality work completed in a timely fashion...problem solved. THANK YOU Plumber Bert!!! read more

Bert is the upmost professional. He came out at the time he said, was able to quickly figure out what the problem was, and gave me the estimate. He showed me exactly what he had to do while he was unclogging my sewer lines. He gave me a lot of good plumbing advice for being a first time owner. Thank you read more

I can't say enough about Bert and his staff. I had a plumbing issue in our condo that lasted for multiple months. Our building's kitchen line would become clogged and sewage water came up our sink because we were on the bottom floor. One plumbing service would resolve it by rodding the line, and the problem would return time after time. Finally, the other services gave up on it. One even had a warranty and had to refund us on it. They said they couldn't find the catch basin, they said the pipes were too narrow to put in a camera, there was too much risk to hydro jet it. Bert not only came up with answers, but he came up with ones that finally brought an end to our issue. There was even a point where we were discussing excavation, which would have brought him more money, but he wanted to try something different, which worked, and cost me a whole lot less. I'm grateful in many ways for the work he did. read more

I had a plumbing issue the day after Thanksgiving and Bert came out and quickly assessed the situation, gave me a quote and fixed the issue within an hour. All Rooter is professional, reasonably priced, and the quality of work was great. I'd recommend them and will be using them again if I have any issues in the future. read more

I had an emergency on Saturday morning when my sewage ejector stopped working - They were able to get someone on site within a few hours and fixed the problem in the same day. Were very straight forward with everything and did an excellent job. read more

Called the company based off fabulous Yelp reviews. The plumber came by to review the work and promised me an estimate same day but then I don't hear from him about it. Contacted them to follow up on the estimate the next day and they tell me they don't have time to do my job. They knowingly wasted my time. Should've been upfront about their schedule. Their professionalism hasn't been the worst I've ever seen but it is definitely below average. read more

We have had constant problems with water seeping through the basement wall since we moved in 2 years ago and went through several opinions on what to do before going immediately with Bert's. He was very thorough, honest, and communicative during the estimate and was able to start work on our huge project immediately. The cost was either similar to or less than the other estimates, and he was very cooperative with the basement waterproofing team that we hired to do external wall encapsulation while the side of the house was dug up for Bert to replace the pipes. He also was a good advocate with the City inspector when he found a problem that the City needed to fix with some pipes. He is kind, professional, and honest, and when pouring the sidewalk back at the end of the project even made sure my request to have my 2 year old leave a handprint in the wet cement was done. Without hesitation I highly recommend Bert and All Rooter. read more

We were having significant issues with a stubborn shower drain.. the water would drain but did so extremely slowly! Bert was very punctual for the free estimate. He took his time and listened to all our concerns before doing a VERY thorough inspection. Though we got several estimates, we decided to go with Bert because he was very professional and knowledgeable, and did not seem rushed. He brought in the rooter and camera and was able to fix our problem in no time! The drain works like new! Highly recommend Bert and his company! read more
