He's an excellent plumber. This is the second time I've had him out. I highly recommend him

David responded on a Sunday evening with a quick response and quote. He and Riley came out for a quick install on Monday afternoon. Fair pricing and professional service. I was very pleased with the service. Thanks Guys! read more

I had to hire another plumber to fix what was not done with this repair. I.e install proper stubouts and shutoff valves. The other plumber will not only install proper stubouts, he wil also fix the drywall good as new, and will do it all for about 1/2 of what Mr Chalmers charged for just doing a quick snake-out of the drain. read more

Did such a good job I reffered him to my mom and he did a great job there too will be using him on another job soon

This was the second time we needed to call Chalmers and the didn't disapoint. Still a five.

I needed a drain clean out. The water line going out of our house was backing up. David responded quickly and communicated well. The drawing was cleared and problem solved for a good price. Will definitely work with David and Chalmers Plumbing again. read more

The service was prompt and efficient. I am glad that I have an option for plumbing services.

Dave was great. Response time and explanations fantastic. Will be using him again in the spring.

Very professional and totally transparent... Came when he said he would and got the job done quickly..... I definitely will be using his services again!! 5 start service!!! read more

One of the best plumbers in the area he came on Thanksgiving night and helped our whole family with a leak and saved our holiday. Thank you so much for such such honest and excellent work. read more

Called Chalmers plumbing for our backed-up downstairs toilet and sink. Chalmer's Plumbing came out promptly the next day. The plumber rodded out the main pipe in our basement and stated that he couldn't get through to our septic tank; We paid for the rodding. Chalmer's plumber stated that the problem was with the sewer pipe between the house and the septic tank, and quoted us $2,200 to dig up and replace the pipe; I felt a bit off about how the plumber was a acting towards us, and instead we got a second opinion, as well as a video inspection from a reputable septic service company. Turns out we just needed one vent pipe replaced and a system blow-out, which including the video inspection cost us a total of $1,700. I got the sense that Chalmer's Plumbing was taking us for a ride. I will not be calling Chalmer's Plumbing ever again. read more

Our bathroom sink was backed up and then leaking after I tried (poorly) to fix it myself. Chalmers plumbing was in and out of my house within about an hour of me contacting them. The price was incredibly reasonable. We'll definitely know who to call next time. read more

Dave completed a water heater installation for us. He was prompt (actually a few minutes earlier than quoted) and completed the job professionally. We have used him in the past for other jobs and the service was equally as great. I highly recommend Chalmers Plumbing. read more

The water service line to our was broken outside the foundation and leaking in to the basement. Chalmers reacted quickly and under terrible weather conditions excavated 6' below grade to find and repair leak. It was reassuring that they understood my concern and treated the repair as an emergency. I would highly recommend Chalmers for all your plumbing requirements. Don't waste your time calling everyone you find in your google search. Just call Chalmers and just watch them make it happen. read more

This guy gave me the best prices quote for my washer box replacement and valve replacement. Easy communication! We've had a lot of contractors here after purchasing a new home. He was the first to clean up after himself. I was impressed. I followed him out to close the garage door. It's been having issues refusing to close. He jumped out of his truck and gave me a hand, just to be a nice guy. To be clear this was an existing problem not the result of him being here. I probably would have paid someone $150 to come out and fix, but he just went the extra mile. I'm just tickled we found Chalmers! read more

Thank you David! I had a backed up main line and David came out timely and the best quote for the job to rod the line. David explained as he was working and also guaranteed his work for 6 months! Service was quick, professional and didn't break the bank like some other quotes I received. Will call David again for my plumbing needs! read more

We called Chalmers on a Friday morning for a little leak under our sink we had just noticed. We have only been in our place for a little over a month. Left a voicemail. He called back within the hour! We were busy so played phone tag a bit. He didn't give up. Thank you! He came out Saturday morning, on time. Tried to fix our leak a less expensive way first. (thought that was good) It did get a little more detailed but he was quick, efficient and very reasonable! Professional. Highly recommend! We are glad we found our plumber on the fist try moving to a new area! We hope we don't need you often but your our guy! Thank you. read more

We had a plumbing emergency. The initial plumber said to fix everything it would cost almost 9000. In desperation I messaged other plumber on yelp. David said it sounded like way too high a price and agreed to come out for a free estimate. He knocked it down to 4800. David did a terrific job, not just with the plumbing but getting the permit and everything squared away and getting the job done professionally. He was also very kind and patient. I recommend Chalmers Plumbing to anyone. read more

Since moving into "This Old House" 2 1/2 years ago we've found issues left and right that needed fixing. For almost that entire length of time, our upstairs toilet was out of commission. The downstairs one always had to have the handle held to flush completely. Also we discovered a leak in the basement everytime we flushed it. The kitchen faucet was constantly leaking. The basement laundry basin was nonfunctional and in recent months the upstairs sink kept getting clogged. In short it was a mess. Of course we had to prioritize that against old gutters, inefficient windows, an old radiator, and general maintenance. To top it off I was laid off last September. So money of course was as Simply Red would sing.."too tight to mention". Yep showing my age. Things thankfully turned around for the time being and we finally were able to tackle the plumbing this summer. I searched Yelp and Chalmers was among the three I reached out to. One I didn't hear back from and Chalmers and another company reached back saying to contact for more details. I read the Yelp reviews of the remaining contender and those scared me off. I saw Chalmers had all positive (albeit only a few). I took a chance and am glad I did. David was courteous on phone as I detailed all that needed to be done. I scheduled a free estimate and he came by promptly as D showed him our situation. The price he came back with seemed pretty fair so I agreed to have him do the work. He finished everything on my laundry list within 2 hours. It ended up for the toilets that both had shoddy work on the wax ring which caused the leaking. Replacing the toilets and putting the wax ring properly solved the leaking issue. He was very professional and through during the whole visit. And I was very pleased with the results. David's the real deal. If you need any kind of plumbing work, take a chance on him. Flush the rest...LOL. read more

Today was the first time I used Chalmers Plumbing. I needed a clogged line cleared that was causing alot of backup inside the home in the tub and sinks. He is the 2nd plumber I hired in a 2 month period for the same job. The first company was dishonest in their pricing and did not fix the problem. They basically removed the cleanout lid and let the sewage flow out and claimed they weren't able to get their 4" auger into the cleanout and thought the problem was taken care of by the amount of sewage that came out. Dave was just the opposite! For starters, he was HONEST and FAIR with pricing. He was punctual, professional, and clean. Most importantly, he cleared a bunch of roots that were blocking the lines into the home and to the city service line. He also warranties his work for the next 6 months and put it in writing I will call him for all my future plumbing service needs and will gladly recommend him to anyone I know in need of services. read more

Chalmers Plumbing - Rodding the sewer lines cutting through the tree roots - Plumbing Near Me - Hobart, Indiana

He did a great job to fix the clogged kitchen sink with reasonable price. The cover of drain was difficult to open and he ended up cut the metal cover into pieces. There was no any issue with the drain now read more

Showed up on time. Did the job professionally and precisely. Fairly priced. Wore shoe covers on the hardwood floors. I would recommend him to anyone in the NWI area. As a matter of fact I will be looking to use him again soon 5 stars read more

It's difficult to find a qualified, honest plumber. But, now that has changed! We had a slow running laundry tub drain. After getting to response from the big rooting companies, we found Chalmers with good Yelp reviews. I submitted a quote request and heard back within minutes. So far, so good! He indicated he could come out at anytime without any overtime fees. Since this was not an emergency, we agreed on a mid afternoon appointment, which was the same day of the request. He arrived and immediately tackled the problem. Routed the slow moving drain. Fixed it with no issues. We had him then look at a couple of other minor things. Fixed those and provided good recommendations on what to do with an intermittent dripping kitchen faucet. Now, here's the main thing that differentiates Chalmers from other plumbers I have used. His estimate was fair and he stuck to it. And, he charged a nominal amount to look at the other things we asked him to resolve. Chalmers has earned us as a loyal customer. Thank you for the best plumbing service ever! If anyone is reading this review and is looking for an honest, fair and qualified plumber, look no further! read more

Fast, Friendly and a fair price what more could you ask for. Our main sewer line was clogged I tried renting a rodder and doing it myself and after 3 hours it just wasn't powerful enough. He had it cleared in about a half hour. Save yourself the time and hassle and just call him first. read more

David did an excellent job, start to finish. He was quick to respond to my request for an estimate and scheduling an appointment to look at the issues (two dripping faucets & a slow filling toilet tank). He gave me a fair price and scheduled an appointment to do the actual work in a reasonable time-frame. Both faucets hadn't been worked on in ages, so they gave him a considerable fight, but he was tenacious & got them both replaced - even with my dog sticking her nose into the middle of the process repeatedly to 'help' him. Both faucets are now drip-free and the toilet tank refills in no time. Plus, he did a great job making sure there was no mess left behind. I couldn't be more pleased with his work! David is now my go-to plumbing guy! read more

Responsive, honest, and efficient in solving our water heater issue. Will be calling them first next time.

The guy that fixed the shower was amazing. I wasn't able to pull the middle part of the shower and I am glad that he was able to come over and fix the problem. read more

Was the lowest quoted price to install my new toliet. Chalmers was at my house the next day on a Saturday. They were profesional, curtious, and even protected their shoes when entering my home. read more

Dave is great - responsive, knows what he is doing -a true professional with reasonable prices. We strongly recommend Chalmers!

The plumber I last used was very good, but he does not work on Saturday. I did not want to wait until Monday because the drain I had a problem with was the laundry tub drain that my water softener and iron filter also use. I already pulled the tub out and when my hand snake could not clear the drain I called Chalmers after I saw the very good reviews on Yelp. He gave me an estimate for rooting the drain over the phone and I told him to do the job. He came out within a few hours, cleared the drain and charged exactly what was quoted. The 60 day free rooting service warranty for the same drain was a nice warranty they offer. I would highly recommend Chalmers for 24 hour or any regular plumbing service. I can tell you who not to call. You have probably seen their yellow billboards all over advertising 24 hour plumbing service. If you do not mind giving someone all your money call them. You will probably end up paying the monthly rent for one of their billboards after you pay the bill! read more

My mom's toilet was leaking and I called several plumbers for estimates. Chalmers was about half the price of several of them, and Dave said he could come out that day. He fixed the toilet and checked the sewer to make sure it was clear. Then he went down in the crawl space which is scary and gross to check out a wet area that I was concerned about. I was really worried that a recent bathtub renovation was causing extensive water damage, but he immediately identified a leak from the other toilet and replaced the seal. The total charge for two toilets was the price for one from other estimates. Dave was very nice, honest, and professional, and we will definitely use him for all our plumbing needs in the future. read more

Refreshing!! Quick responses, professional, fair pricing and quality work! Wow, great for this region! Dave was courteous and knowledgeable. From inquiry to completion a consummate pro. He replaced a shower faucet cartridge for me. I couldn't have been happier, it was just an all around great experience! Keep up the great work!!! read more

Called Chalmers Plumbing after being completely "no-showed" by another plumbing company and I couldn't have been happier with my decision. Dave came right out within a couple hours and was able to replace my broken hot water heater the very next day. He's professional, courteous, quick to respond, very fairly priced, and stands by his work... everything you could want from a plumbing business. read more

Dave showed up in less than 30 minutes on a Saturday. Dedicated to solve the problem at a great price for being a last minute call on a weekend. He did a great a job checking multiple points in the drain lines to make sure there was proper flow into the main drain. Very reasonable pricing and time efficiency. I wouldn't hesitate to call Chalmers again and highly recommend their services. read more

Where do I begin?? We had a drip in the bathroom shower faucet that needed to be fixed. Turns out we had a bad 'cartridge'. Of course I had no idea what that meant but thought it was an easy fix. Called our usual plumbing company and they agreed to come look at it for $79, okay no problem. Let me first say that prior to calling them someone unskilled tried to help us and well let's just say, it didn't work. So once the original plumber got here, he said that because whoever initially tried to take the handle off broke the screw off in it, the job was now more complicated. We also wanted the trim kit and shower head replaced. After taking some pics and calling his boss we were given an estimate of between $810-$1100 which includes cutting a hole in the living room wall to get to the plumbing and they made it clear that they don't repair the drywall. The reason for the hole is that 'it's the only way to get to the area where he needs to work in order to get the handle off'. I felt sick, to say the least but what was I to do with no plumbing knowledge...so I made the appointment and waited for them to come back. To shorten the story they didn't come at the scheduled time so I called and they said they were 'just about to call me' because it turns out they couldn't get me in that day because they didn't realize it was a two man job...I decided to get another professional opinion and here's where Chalmers Plumbing came in. I called Dave after reading Yelp reviews and he said he could come take a look at the situation right then FOR FREE and would be at the house in 15 minutes, he was here in 10. He said there was NO reason to put a hole in the wall and since I wasn't keeping the old parts the job was no problem. His calm demeanor really put us at ease because just thinking of calling a plumber can be intimidating. He was extremely professional, cleaned up after himself and only did what was necessary so at no time did we feel taken advantage of. By the way, easily saved us OVER $800. We have found a new plumber for as long as he is in business. Can't say how thankful we are to know that good, honest businesses still exist. read more
