Plumbing reviews in Chicago, Illinois

They were very responsive and fixed my tub quickly. I really appreciate the fast and efficient service!

Called Fast Action at 5:30pm to see if they could fix a busted outdoor spigot that had started leaking inside my home. Derek was at my house within the hour and got to work on fixing the ruptured pipe and replacing the cracked spigot. This is hands down the best experience I have had with a plumber ever. I highly recommend Derek and will exclusively use him for all plumbing work moving forward.
Thank you so much for everything!

Derek was incredibly helpful! When other companies wanted to charge me nearly 3x as much, he was quick to give me a competing estimate and held true to the quote. He was quick with the repair and his response time was almost immediate. So happy to have a reliable, competitively priced plumber on call for any future needs!

Derek is the best!! Extremely responsive, quick, knowledgeable, and affordable. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a terrific plumber.

Derek was awesome! Super responsive and even came out on a Sunday morning during a snowstorm. Was very honest and told us that we actually didn't need the service done that we had called him for -- after he had already purchased the parts and everything! Greatly appreciated his honesty. Would highly recommend Derek with Fast Action for any plumbing needs!

Fast Action Plumbing — just the name gives confidence that you folks know how to handle things quickly and professionally. Local services like this are the real backbone of any neighborhood.

Noticed there’s no official website listed — having one could make it even easier for nearby homeowners to reach out in emergencies.

(Just a little note from someone who helps local businesses with things like that — I’m a web developer!)

I am so glad I called Fast Action. The team was very professional. I had a mystery leak and two other plumbers couldn’t figure out where the water was coming from. They even suggested breaking into the wall to find the source. They quoted me outrageous rates. I called Fast Action, and they were determined to find the issue. They were very patient and ran all types of tests and eventually found the problem. They fixed the issue without having to break into the wall. I highly recommend them.

Derek is the most knowledgeable plumber I have come across and his prices were very reasonable in comparison to all other guys that I spoke to.
I strongly recommend Fast Action and will definitely use him again.

Derek was contacted to unclog a kitchen sink drain and replace a toilet flush valve. He was responsive, communicated well and was timely. The sink drain ended up being a full pipe replacement (a reschedule was required). His work was done quickly and his pricing was fair. I recommended Derek to my neighbor. Derek is certainly my preferred plumber.

Called Derek after my other plumber bailed 2 days in a row. Derek has resolved 2 problems for me, both inside and outside my house on 2 separate occasions. He was on time to the minute on both occasions and is fairly priced. I'd definitely recommend him!

Derek was amazing! He was quick to respond and schedule an appointment. Our water heater went out and he was straightforward and didn’t try to upsell us on anything, which is very appreciated these days. His pricing was fair. The work was done well and he was genuinely a very nice guy. I will be calling him again for future work.

"Fast Action" is honestly an understatement!

Derek is a fantastic all around plumber who has responded *very* quickly to multiple calls to our new home and fixed things up for us quickly, professionally, and with a lot of care and attention. I'd recommend him to anyone in Chicago in need of a great plumber and will definitely call him again anytime we need work done.

I have worked with Derek for over 3yrs for plumbing services! Clogged drained, installation of Garbage disposable, installation of Reverse Osmosis install of new faucets cartridges.

He is the Most responsive and quickest plumber that you can call within minutes! He is local plumber who I absolutely love having! Pricing is great and is very fair! Honesty you want one of the most reliable, honest plumber who can can get the job done quickly! Call Derek!

He is my first person I call for any plumbing issues!!!

Fast Action is the perfect name! Both of my plumbing issues were completed very fast, well and affordable!

FAST ACTION PLUMBING -- DO NOT USE!!!! Long story short, horrible communication, water heater not installed to code, damaged my floors, damaged my front door, installed the new water heater in standing water because he was to lazy to drain it, left water heater in front of my condo after I told him not too, left water heater box around the block on the sidewalk & pressured my fiance into paying without providing an invoice. He then said he would wait to cash the check until we received the invoice, but he lied about that too. Refuses to pick up the phone or be responsive to call to come back and redo the job. ABSOLUTE WORST EXPERIENCE...DO NOT USE

UPDATE: The owner just responded to my review 3 weeks ago. He said the employee is no longer with the company...that is NOT TRUE as DEREK is the person who did my job and is the owner! He also stated he didn't charge me for the job, which also IS NOT TRUE. He also caused damage to my unit which he did not reimburse me for...see pics attached. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!

Fast action plumbing is a very appropriate name! Derek is always very responsive and considerate with times. Gets the job done well and quickly. He has helped us with both bathroom and kitchen plumbing. I would give 10 stars if it allowed me! Highly recommended!!!

Derek responded very quickly to my text. He was very professional and he made the repairs quickly and I was very satisfied with his work I will recommend him to my friends and will definitely use him again.

Needed someone quick as we had leaking from our sump pump and Derek was at our house in 20 minutes and replaced it for us. Will use him for any plumbing needs in the future!

Derek arrived on time, was courteous and respectful, and completed the job of replacing a sink in under 30 minutes.

Derrick did a great job with my plumbing problem in my basement. He and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable in their field. I would highly recommend him.

Derek was super quick to come out and fix a broken toilet. He has always done great work for us and is our go to for any plumbing needs.
