This was my second time using Garrity. Today they replaced my ejector pump. Like before they arrived on time and did a great job. You can definitely trust these guys. read more

Absolutely first rate. Larry has done numerous jobs for our house - installed a new garbage disposal, replaced flaps and pumps on toilets, repaired a slow leak in the basement, and probably a few other fixes I've forgotten. Most recently, we had a pesky leak in the upstairs bathtub. The tub is over the kitchen, and water would drip from one of the recessed lights in the ceiling. Yikes! Larry and his assistant had to cut a hole in the kitchen ceiling, but they almost instantly found the problem and fixed it. As a bonus, the drain on the tub now works again! And as far as the hole in the ceiling...I got a guy for that! I replaced the sump pump a few years ago. I asked Larry to look at it and let me know if I need to replace it again. How many other companies would view that as an invitation to overcharge for work that isn't needed? Larry said he examined it and it was fine. No problems. Timely, great work, fair pricing. And honest. If you need plumbing work, I highly recommend Garrity Plumbing. read more

Garrity is top notch plumbing at a very reasonable price. I can't say enough good things about Larry and his crew. Punctual, efficient, high-quality, no nonsense approach. This is the second time they've helped me out this year. As things stand, Garrity will definitely be my go to going forward. Highly recommended. read more

Have had Larry assist on a few projects over the years. They always provided a great service, extremely professional, responsive and expert quality. Worked on several services; kitchen sink, bathroom refresh with a new toilet and vanity, water heaters and gas line replacement for a kitchen remodel. Have always provided their great services at a fair value! Highly recommend the Garrity Plumbing team! read more

Had Garrity come out and check our meter and water due to a high water bill. Didn't find anything but gave good advice. Had them change our laundry sink facet. Very thorough. Thanks Larry! read more

Needed to replace toilet and vanity/sink. After receiving some high quotes (like $500 just to install a toilet! That I already bought). I chose Garrity Plumbing. Was extremely glad I did. Larry showed up (on time) and in 1 hr 15 min he & his helper removed the old toilet and sink and installed the new ones. They even noticed a little backup in my tub when they were running the water to check seals and rodded my pipes (instead of waiting for a new service call). Very professional and honest. Also COVID-19 careful. Wore masks the whole time. You need a plumber? Call Garrity you won't regret it. read more

Garrity Plumbing - New toilet and sink/vanity - Plumbing Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I have a business where everything must be working. With a plumbing issue I made the call. Very happy with the turn around time to get to my location. Even happier that my issue was taken care of. When they left they cleaned up the mess I guess I created as well. Great people. Great service and very reasonable read more

My wife and I just bought a new condo, and discovered that our toilet had grand illusions of growing up to be Niagra Falls. Any pressure on the tank, and the floor was flooded! My mother recommended Garrity to us, so we decided to give them a try. We called them Sunday afternoon, they called back Sunday night, and we were scheduled for 7:30am Wednesday morning. They were prompt, professional, and got our toilet rebuilt in under 30 minutes for under $200! Absolutely fabulous, and highly recommended! If we find out the prior owner left us any other plumbing surprises, I know exactly who were're going to call. read more

Tom and Nico arrived right on time, and went to work. They originally thought the job would take most of the day, then finished up in about 4 hours -- and my home was cleaner looking than when they began. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GARRITY! 847-673-8080 A couple of years ago, I got a quote for this same work from one of the city's biggest plumbing outfits -- over $5,000, and they said they might have to tear up my newly installed granite countertops! So I put it off until yesterday, and went with GARRITY on a recommendation from neighbors. They completely replumbed all the pipes beneath my kitchen sink, even opening up the wall in a bedroom closet behind the kitchen to get access. And they did all this work without turning off the water main for the other condo units. YES! Now I can use my washer/dryer combo unit AND my dishwasher at the same time!!! Have not been able to do that since I moved in almost 20 years ago. The closet looks like new -- they went out and bought a white panel for the interior closet wall, it is wonderful! The cost? About $1,500!!! GREAT WORK, SWEET GUYS! Again, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GARRITY PLUMBING. Call 847-673-8080, and tell them I sent you! read more

Want integrity and honesty when you need to call a plumber? Garrity is who to call. The crew, either led by Tom or by Larry, has been to my house (a 100 yr. old bungalow) several times for both installation work and for service work. Garrity Plumbing will always be our go to, and the company to whom we will refer friends. A family owned and operated business with genuine integrity. My house has had some issues with waste water drainage, and Garrity has done everything in their power to mitigate the expenses rather than seizing an opportunity to make money. Seriously, Garrity is the best plumbing company out there. Thank you! read more

Larry and his assistant came on time for some pipe shut off, drain and toilet seating issues. I highly recommend his skills and professionalism. These are nice capable plumbers. read more

Garrity is great. My dad was a plumber so I think sometimes I have some kind of genetic predisposition to being able to fix anything with pipes. I can't. I'm terrible. This does not stop me from trying. I recently tried to install a vanity with a nice bowl sink that sits out from the wall a little further than your standard vanity sink. After three days of wrestling with it and staring at a wall of parts at the hardware store and then rigging up some kind of Dr. Seuss looking ten part contraption, I discovered that since my original sink was installed in 1937, that after all my highly creative plumbing to reach the wall pipe, the wall pipe was welded into a recessed steel fixture that wasn't going anywhere. Game over. So I called Garrity. Garrity came in while I was at the office. A friend of mine let him in. When I came home, not only did my new killer vanity work just fine, there was the the entire highly creative ten part Rube Goldberg plumbing contraption I'd put together laying on the table with the bill. Across the top of the bill was a note: "Nice try." He'd fixed the wall fixture AND replaced my own mess with real plumbing. I won't go anywhere else. read more

Larry and his crew did a great job. His quote was by far the most reasonable for the work I requested. He called me before he can and arrived in time. He even fixed a minor issue I had with my bathroom toilet. Pleased with the work so I will be definitely using this company for future projects. read more

I have been using Garrity for 22 years - having been referred to them by my grandmother! They are HONEST. Tom steers you away from expensive jobs you don't need. Totally responsive. I called with a broken hot water heater at 6:30 am; they were at my house by 7:30 to repair. read more

Tom and his son Larry are the kind of craftsman that rarely exist anymore. They are tops. Professional, on-time and really know their stuff. It is without reservations that I recommend Garrity plumbing! read more

Surprise, surprise ... our pipes burst in the recent Arctic Unpleasantness. Larry Garrity came out, fixed the pipes, explained what he was doing and advised me on how to avoid it next time. We've been with the Garrity family for almost two decades. In every instance, they've responded quickly and done excellent work. And they're good folks. A few years ago, when we ran into Larry's father, Tom, down in Indiana, he bought us breakfast. read more

Highly recommended! Garrity Plumbing fixed my kitchen sink in less than an hour: bad, old work was leaking and pipes were clogged. Tom Garrity replaced them and now the sink drains better than ever. This last-minute work saved me from possible cold-weather problems. All of this was done for a very good price. I would definitely call them again. read more

Absolutely super. One of the best experiences I have ever had with a small family owned plumbing company. Larry, the owner gave a very fair quote and stuck to it, even though he had to come on three visits. The first for most of the work and then another day because the new toilet I had purchased had a hairline crack and I scrambled to find a replacement for him to install a few days later. Then, he was very gracious about returning on a third day when I noticed a very slight leak in the toilet water line connection. It just needed tightening but I didn't want to tamper with it myself. Cannot recommend anyone higher than I do Garrity Plumbing. You won't be disappointed in the price or the quality of the work. Believe me, I have been doing renovation projects for over 40 years. Wish I had found these guys long ago. read more

MISLEADING......came out to give me an estimate, had emphasized on the phone that they "only" charge $90/hour. I guess this IS cheap for a licensed plumber. However when he arrived he told me he would work with one other man (this is a simple installation of a faucet) so it would cost a total of $180 an hour for the two of them. I Asked why he would need the other man, he said to hold the faucet on top while he is tightening it on the bottom, and to run out to his truck to get things he finds he needs as the job progresses (remember, this is just installation of a faucet!) Yikes, the assistant sure isn't doing much highly skilled "plumbering" to earn $90/hour !. I asked if I could hold the faucet for him and he said "no no I'm only insured when my people are working on the job". When he left I watched him go back out to his truck and there was a young kid (maybe 19 or 20?) waiting for him. My guess is this was his assistant for whom he charges an extra $90/hour. Tom Garrity was a very nice man but I found it misleading to say he charges $90 an hour when he is really charging $180 an hour for the work. Also, beware: He does not charge for any units of time less than an hour so if he/they work for for 10 minutes over one hour you will be charged for TWO hours (for two men). He gets an extra star for being nice, but this plumber will cost you a lot more than you think. read more

Tom will gouge you on the price. He will hand you a bill for $3k easily after just 2 hours of work without shame.. (2 faucets replaced, I provided the faucets, and a new cold knob on a shower for $3,000?!) Recent work has been shoddy or half done and then overpriced for the quality. He's a nice guy, sure he will smile and be just as sweet as he can be, while he charges you triple the price for the work. There are plenty of other plumbers willing to do good work for less. read more

Great service! Called on Monday, they were here on Tuesday. Fixed two toilets and replaced a faucet for a very reasonable price. Tom and his assistant were very nice. They will be the first ones I call for all my plumbing needs! read more

I am a Realtor and have used Garrity Plumbing several times at different properties. Have always had a good experience. They show up on time, charges are reasonable, and they get the job done. No complaints. read more

Quick, friendly, prompt and professional. Tom has come to our house many times over the years to clean out slow drains, replace sump pumps and faucets, and take care of other household plumbing issues. He and his assistant have always done a great job. He knows his stuff and inspires confidence. read more

My basement flooded and these guys came out within a few hours of the call, didn't overcharge me and cleaned up after! Awesome...

Garrity plumbing is the best. Always fast response, excellent , honest service. They can fix anything. I have been a customer since purchasing my home in 1997. read more

We have been using Garrity plumbing since the mid 1990's - and they are great. Tom and his staff are dependable, fair, and good people. Period. If you need a great plumber - don't look any further. read more

These guys are the best! I called them on monday and they fit me in on wed afternoon. They were coming out to put new valves under my sink. Wed morn came and they called saying they will be coming in 15 min. They were very prompt and professional and very reasonably priced. Did the job in 20 min. I would definitely use these guys again and recommend them. read more

I've used Garrity twice for difficult clogs. Both times they came on time (I chose an early morning time slot to make this more likely), worked quickly, and got the job done. I felt their price was reasonable compared to quotes from other plumbers. They were polite and cleaned up afterwards. read more

Wish i read Yelp reviews before hiring. He did the same thing to us that he did to others. Quoted $95/hr and showed up with another person to fix a bathroom leak. The other guy stood around while garrity worked. After 20 minutes of only garrity working, we stepped out and returned 25 minutes later and he was done. He was there a total of 45 minutes, it was a simple one man job, we knew this going in. He said the bill was $420. When we complained he said a third guy mysteriously appeared, worked, and left because we never saw him, and that 3 guys worked to solve the problem and they all need to be paid. He further said "we weren't there the entire time and couldn't prove anything." DO NOT USE! The worst experience we have ever had! He will do everything he can to take your money. Read these reviews! read more

feel bad about writing about a following parishioner, reason I used Tom in the first place. Saw his ad in Queen of All Saints flyer so I thought he would be a good choice. couple of years ago hired him for some pipe upgrade and new water heater. Later found out charge me more than other plumbers. Charged more than the estimate he gave me. OK, what is done is done. Fast forward to last summer with re cord rain and flooding. I could not for the life of me could not ignite my water heater. Call ed Tom could you please come by and look at it, don't have hot water....sorry.. busy with other calls.. can come out in a couple days. Really? overpaid for water heater, simple task of 10 mins would have solved problem, We go to same parish, neighborhood. Next door neighbor's plumber came over within the hour, took a look, started it and did not charge me ANYTHING! Couple days ago, basement sink not draining, kitchen sink not draining, cannot use toilet, call Tom my fellow neighbor and parishiner, can you please fix? Sorry, really busy, can come out in 2 weeks. OMG!! previous customer, in the hood and 2 weeks can come out. Wow. Thanks! read more
