All reviews for Brothers Plumbing

I recently had some pretty stubborn issues with my bathtub not draining properly, which I had been avoiding for a while. When I realized it couldn’t wait any longer, I reached out to a local plumbing company in Evanston to figure out what was causing the backup and get it fixed. I spoke with Wyatt, who quickly got me scheduled for an appointment the very next day. Before the plumber arrived, Calvin gave me a call to let me know he was on his way. When Robert, the technician, showed up, he was very friendly and made sure to explain everything he was doing to solve my plumbing problem. He got my bathtub draining perfectly again in no time. The whole process was smooth, and the pricing was really fair too. I highly recommend this plumbing company to anyone in Evanston who needs help with their drains or any other plumbing needs. I’ll definitely call them again if I need plumbing services in the future!

this is our second time sharing feedback about brothers plumbing. brothers plumbing became our go-to plumber after our previous company stopped working with private homes. the main reason we chose them was because they’re family owned and really involved in their work. our first experience was the regular spring plumbing inspection and maintenance, which was very thorough. then, one of our older water heaters in the attic started leaking. after checking it out, calvin from brothers plumbing found it was a bigger problem than just a leak, so we needed a replacement water heater. brothers plumbing gave us a prompt quote. since it was a big job, we also got a quote from the plumbing company we’d used for years. brothers plumbing’s quote was over 40% less for the same equipment. i had to chase the other company just to get a quote! when we were facing a stretch of really hot days, brothers plumbing scheduled the installation before the heat hit and finished everything on time. our attic is pretty old and tough to work in, but wyatt and robert handled everything without any complaints, even carrying the new water heater up three stories and dealing with some tricky wiring in the walls. we needed a small adjustment after the install, and they came back within two days at no extra charge. we couldn’t be happier with the service, from the people who answer the phones to the service manager who explained the new efficiency ratings to us, and especially the team who did the work. we don’t usually write reviews this long, but they really earned it. we highly recommend them.

Robert came out to my house in Evanston to repair a water leak in a pipe leading to my kitchen sink. He used a camera through the nearest clean-out to locate the problem. To get to the leaking pipe, he had to carefully cut into the drywall, remove the old pipe, and solder in a new one. He also rearranged the PVC pipes under my sink to help the water drain better, and then swapped out my kitchen faucet with a new one I had bought. This took some time, but Robert explained everything along the way. When he returned the next day to finish up, I asked if he could also replace a bathroom faucet and a tub spout to get my shower working right. We had to make a quick trip to the store for the right parts, and Robert did some extra soldering since the new tub spout was a different size. He made it all work perfectly, fixing things I had been putting off for years. On a third visit, he came back to repair the drywall from the original leak and even changed out an outdoor water spigot that had been dripping for a long time. Even though there were several repairs, the cost was much less than I expected and definitely lower than what other plumbing companies had quoted me. I’m really happy with the work Robert did and everything is working great now. My new faucets look and work fantastic!

I had several leaks in my old gas lines at my home in Evanston, and since the pipes were really old, I decided it was best to get them replaced. I heard about Brothers Plumbing from another local plumber who said Robert was great with gas lines. I got a few estimates, but Brothers Plumbing offered a much better price and value compared to the others. Robert was very knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to listen to all my concerns. He explained everything clearly and answered all my questions about the process. The team showed great work ethic and made sure everything was done safely and efficiently. I'm very happy I chose them for this job and have already recommended them to friends. Highly recommend if you need a plumber in Evanston!

We recently discovered that our sewer pipe had rusted through and caused a major clog in our plumbing system. When we called Brothers Plumbing, their team was quick to take down our information and kept an eye on their schedule to find an open slot for us. They called us back promptly to let us know when a plumber could come out, and Calvin arrived exactly when promised. It’s rare these days for companies to actually follow up and show such attention to customer needs, but they did just that. We’re very happy with the service and will definitely call them first if we ever need a plumber in Evanston again.

Every couple of years, the main line in my house gets clogged up. In the past, other companies would just bring their drain snakes, clear it for a bit, and then tell me to pump the septic tank, which always cost a lot. This time, robert from brothers plumbing handled things differently. he used an inspection camera to actually see what was causing the clog, and gave me good advice on what to do to help prevent future problems. he had all the right plumbing tools with him and seemed ready for anything. i was really impressed with the work and would definitely recommend their plumbing services if you have drain or pipe issues. really top notch service.

we recently had our old tankless water heater swapped out by a local plumbing company in evanston, and the whole process was excellent. from the first call to the final install, calvin really showed a lot of plumbing knowledge and professionalism. what really stood out was how calvin made sure we understood how the new water heater worked and even shared some helpful tips on keeping it running smoothly. the pricing was straightforward with no hidden fees, which we appreciated. overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this plumbing crew to anyone looking for honest and skilled plumbers.

When I needed help fast, I called a local plumber right away and I’m so glad I did. Robert showed up at my home in Evanston in less than an hour. My basement was completely flooded, but Robert handled it like a pro. He asked a few questions about my plumbing setup and got right to work. He quickly pumped all the water out of my basement and found that my ejector pump had failed. After replacing it, he noticed that the new pump still wasn’t working properly. Robert figured out that my main sewer line was clogged, so he rodded the sewer pipe and got everything draining smoothly again. The pricing was very fair, and I really appreciated the friendly and professional service. Robert is even coming back soon to do a video inspection on my sewer line to make sure everything is in perfect shape. I’m really happy with the quick response and thorough work!

I needed help finding my septic tank and had a big clog in my plumbing, so I called a local plumbing company in Evanston. They sent someone out really quickly, and once Wyatt arrived, I knew I was in good hands. Wyatt was very knowledgeable, super friendly, and took the time to explain everything he discovered and what needed to be done. He did excellent work fixing the blockage and made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. From my first phone call to the completion of the job, the service was fantastic. I’ll definitely be reaching out to them again for any future plumbing needs.

We bought two homes in Evanston and both came with homeowner warranties. When we had some plumbing issues in each house, the warranty companies sent out a plumber to help us. Wyatt, the plumber who came, was very prompt and professional, and he fixed all our plumbing problems quickly. After such a good experience, we decided to upgrade the toilets and fixtures in one of the houses, so we called them again. Once more, the service was excellent and the prices were fair. We are extremely satisfied and would highly recommend their plumbing services to anyone in Evanston.

I had a great experience with this plumbing company. From the first call, the office staff was friendly and helpful whenever I had questions or needed to schedule something. Calvin explained everything about the leak under our slab in a way that made sense and gave us a few different options to fix the problem. The plumbers who came out were professional, on time, and really seemed to know their stuff. They also worked directly with our homeowners insurance, which made things a lot easier for us. I’m very happy with how everything was handled and would definitely recommend their plumbing services to anyone looking for honest and reliable help.

i'm really grateful for brothers plumbing! after having a tough time with another company that kept charging us a lot just to look at our leaking boiler—and telling us it was just condensation—they never actually fixed anything. things got worse when a corroded pipe burst. we called brothers plumbing, and wyatt showed up in less than an hour. he replaced all the bad pipes and had our boiler working better than before in just a few hours. plus, they guarantee the repair work too. highly recommend for any plumbing repairs or emergencies!

The plumbers who came out were very professional and handled the job with skill. They quickly cleared out a tough hair clog in my pipes, and everything was flowing smoothly again in no time. A previous plumber had said the problem was a broken sewer pipe, but Calvin from this team found that it was just a regular blockage and took care of it right away. I’ve called these plumbers before for other issues, like toilet blockages and replacements, and each time they’ve been fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. Their customer service is excellent, and I trust them to get the job done right every time. Highly recommend for any plumbing needs!

My water heater stopped working, so I called a local plumber for help. From the start, the service was excellent. Wyatt, the plumber who came out, was very professional and clearly knew what he was doing. He called ahead, arrived on time, and quickly figured out what was wrong with my water heater by asking the right questions and running some tests. Wyatt made sure the repair was done right the first time and got my hot water running again fast. I really appreciated how thorough and friendly he was. If I ever need plumbing work again, I’ll definitely call them.

after moving to evanston, i needed some plumbing repairs fast. i tried calling a few local plumbers but only got voicemail and no one called me back. when i reached out here, i actually spoke to a friendly person right away and got my appointment scheduled without any hassle. wyatt and calvin came over and were both super professional and friendly. they replaced some old pipes and fixed a stubborn clog, finishing everything in just one day. about a week later, i noticed an issue with my washer hookup and the gas line for my dryer, so i called again. they got me in quickly and took care of everything with the same great service. definitely happy to have found reliable plumbers in evanston. planning to call them soon for some electrical work too!

My mom recently called a plumber to fix what she thought was a clogged pipe in the basement and a broken dishwasher. She was worried it would be a big problem and expensive. Wyatt, the plumber, came to check it out and quickly found the issue—a small piece from the garbage disposal hadn’t been removed during installation, which caused the dishwasher to overflow. It turned out there was no clog and the dishwasher wasn’t broken after all. Wyatt really knew his stuff, was friendly and professional, and the whole visit cost less than a hundred dollars. We’ll definitely use this plumbing service again!

my very old building in evanston has some really old pipes, and recently the main sewer line got totally clogged up. i called in the morning and explained the problem, and they promised to have someone out the same day. calvin, the plumber, arrived even earlier than expected. it was a tough job with old cast iron pipes, but calvin quickly found the exact issue and knew just what to do. he fixed the problem completely, and there was barely any water left on the basement floor. i know a lot about plumbing and i'm pretty picky, but i'm really happy with how everything turned out. great work by the whole team!

I had a big leak coming from my toilet, so I called a local plumbing service. Calvin, the plumber, showed up fast—less than an hour after I called. He explained everything clearly, showing me what was wrong with the toilet and how he was going to fix it. After taking care of that, Calvin found another serious leak under the basement floor that I didn’t even know about because the water was going into a utility sink. He fixed that too, saving me from what could have been a much bigger and more expensive problem down the road. He worked neatly and left almost nothing for me to clean up. Overall, I was very happy with the plumbing service and would definitely use them again.

I called for a 24-hour plumber late one afternoon because I noticed a leak behind my kitchen cabinets coming from a heat pipe. Calvin showed up right on time, just like he promised. He quickly figured out where the leak was and explained that he could fix it without having to take down the cabinets, since there are different ways to reach the pipes. When I asked about the cost, Calvin gave me a price that was much lower than I expected. He said it would take about 2 to 3 hours to fix, and offered to start right away, but I had other plans that evening. We scheduled the repair for Saturday morning at 10 AM, and he arrived exactly when he said he would. Calvin fixed the leak and also took care of a few other small plumbing issues around my house. When the job was done, the final bill was even less than what he had first quoted me. He made sure everything was cleaned up before he left—my house was actually tidier than before he started! I highly recommend this plumbing service to anyone needing reliable and honest work. The team is professional, friendly, and really goes above and beyond.

i would rate them a 20 out of 10! we called Brothers Plumbing and within just one day, they showed up ready to help. we were really worried because my dad, who is 93, had no working toilets or showers—everything was backing up in the basement from the main sewer line. calvin was fantastic—very understanding about my dad’s health and our urgent situation. he was efficient, knew exactly what to do, and explained each step of the plumbing work. calvin answered all my questions, and i had a lot! he brought a camera and all the right tools to find the block and where the pipe had a crack and a gasket issue. he got the line cleared quickly and showed us the problem with the sewer camera, plus told us what to do next. after finishing, he cleaned up everything. he also gave my dad a military discount, which we really appreciated. we heard great things about them before, and now we know why. we’ll definitely call them again for repairs and any plumbing needs. with over 40 years of experience, calvin is the plumber you want. highly recommend!

Wyatt was fantastic to work with. He showed a lot of skill and professionalism throughout the whole process. My wife and I wanted to upgrade our old fiberglass tub to a walk-in shower, and Wyatt clearly explained every step he would take. He quickly handled all the plumbing adjustments and installed a new mixing valve without any issues. Other companies had turned us down because the project seemed too complicated, but Wyatt completed the job with no trouble at all. We’ll definitely call him for any plumbing work we need in the future.
