Review and analyze now for company Rocket Plumbing Chicago and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''These guys came out the next day. Took a look at my issue and gave me pointers before we got into any actual significant work.
I feel like we are going to have to proceed - but I appreciated the tips before jumping in and starting the money clock. Cowboys would have just started tinkering and running up a bill.
Most likely going to go forward with work, and I will definitely be having them do it. Would highly recommend! Called them at 845am, Julian assured me that someone would be out that day, between 1-5pm.
The person I had helping me out to let in the plumber once they arrived sat at my house from 3pm to 730pm, while the plumber not only didn't show uo, but didn't even have the courtesy to call and say he wasn't able to do so. Horrible pratice there, people, as you word is your bond in the trades.
Don't waste your time, folks. My 92 year old mother lives in a condo bldg that is 60 or so years old.
The sinks in two bathrooms that sit in a hallway and a bedroom are back-to-back and both were totally clogged. After Rocket plumber Jeff tried (unsuccessfully) to power through and clean them out he realized we would have to open the wall to access the pipes.
He came back the next week and did a great job accessing the pipes, cleaning out the solidified blockage, rodded, adding a sanitary T, P-trap and new clean out to a vent above the drain pipe! Well done, great work, excellent communication as I live out of town and had to manage this remotely and at a fair price which was lower than the max estimate. High marks to Rocket Plumbing and Jeff! I hired rocket for emergency gas leak repair was charged far more than quote and then had to hire another company for actual repair Peoples gas questioned who tested my leak and then left in condition it is in maybe they know plumbing but for gas leak I would find another company Excellent service.
They were professional, fast, effective and respectful of my property, all at a reasonable price. The BEST plumbing company! We have had outstanding service every time we have used them.
Most recently, Geoff fixed a major clog in our only toilet and it now flushes even better than before we had a clog issue. Geoff fixed our toilet within MINUTES and was careful, respectful and incredibly kind.
If Geoff is sent out to your home, consider yourself blessed and say goodbye to stress! Prices are the best you will get and there are discounts if you are a repeat/ loyal customer. We love Rocket Plumbing! Rocket Plumbing has been amazing in addressing all our plumbing needs at Songbird Academy and our home in Bucktown.
From the moment we reached out, their response time was impressively quick, demonstrating a commitment to customer service that is rare today. What sets Rocket Plumbing apart is their ability to come up with creative and effective solutions for a range of plumbing challenges.
Whether it was the complex system at the school or the unique requirements of our home, they approached each project with a problem-solving mindset that resulted in efficient and long-lasting repairs. Their technicians are not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also courteous and respectful of our spaces.
It's clear that customer satisfaction is their top priority, and it shows in the quality of their work and the way they conduct themselves. Choosing Rocket Plumbing was one of the best decisions we've made for the maintenance of our facilities and home.
We highly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable, high-quality plumbing solutions. Their exceptional service, quick response times, and innovative approaches make them a standout choice.
We had Nick come out for an emergency plumbing and he was so awesome. I called rocket plumbing and they were able to come out right away.
He made me feel at ease that our plumbing problem was going to be resolved before he left and it did! Nick was very knowledgeable. Definitely will call them again when needed.
I had a bigger problem come up. They came out, told me what they were going to do, and quoted a price.
I then got a second and third opinion. Both were cheaper and would be doing more.
Needless to say, I won't be calling again. Amazing! Luis, my technician was polite, prompt,respectful and reassuring.
He made a awful situation ( my clogged kitchen sink with sewer water backing up), a simple task.I am so thankful that this company took care of my issue so promptly. He even fixed my slow running stream of water, something i didn't ask him to do..
Great job living up to the values your website speaks of. A+++ Amazing!!! Highly recommended and would use them again without hesitation.
Very honest, courteous and fairly priced. Although I did not use Rocket plumbing when my sump recently burned up I did contact them during off hours and the dispatcher scheduled a plumber.
It was not an emergency at the time, no water issues just the pump. However the plumber did contact me and kept me informed as he was busy with other emergencies.
He kept me posted and when we talked we determined it was not an emergency which was great. That saved me an unnecessary after hours fee.
I ended up doing the work myself and was ready for the next storm. Thanks for being honest with me and being very good keeping me informed.
I would use and recommend Rocket Plumbing. Highly recommend Rocket! Called them just a couple days ago to address a small leak in a rental unit that needed to be fixed quickly before a new tenant move-in today.
Luis and Joel showed up exactly on time and called me shortly thereafter with multiple detailed options. In the process, they found a number of other items in bathroom and basement that were done incorrectly or not to code by my previous contractors, some which posed a safety concern.
They handled all of them on the same day and even a few other items we didn't discuss and at a great price. Huge credit to Luis especially for excellent communication and to them both for doing a thorough job! Rocket has been my go to plumbing solution for years and this is why! Louis was awesome! We had a problem with the spout in our tub backing up into the wall with water going down into our dining room.
There was also a small leak in the valve leading to our toilet. Rocket answered my call and dispatched Louis the same afternoon.
He quickly diagnosed the problems and gave us a quote. This is great because prior plumbers have charged by the hour which can get very expensive.
Louis was professional and explained everything. When replacing the tub spout, he delicately removed the surrounding tile.
So you cannot even tell. The toilet valve was also replaced to our satisfaction.
Overall, we were very pleased with the quality of the work and attention to detail. So we would highly recommend Rocket Plumbing.
After having a recent bad experience with the plumbing service I normally use, I decided to take my business elsewhere and found Rocket Plumbing. Water suddenly stopped coming out of my bathroom faucet and it seemed like the water shutoff valves needed to be replaced.
I reached out to Rocket Plumbing and they were able to get someone out early the next morning. Eric B.
was the plumber assigned to my job. He called me about 30 minutes before heading over to my home, talked through the plumbing issues I was having, and gave a preliminary assessment of what the problem and solution could be.
Eric arrived on time, was courteous, and made sure to wear shoe coverings in my home. We talked through things again and he gave me a proposed plan for dealing with the issue, as well as a price estimate, and discussed potential next steps if that did not resolve the issue.
He ultimately ended up replacing the shutoff valves, lines, and faucet. He worked efficiently and was very transparent with what work needed to be done.
When he finished the work, he meticulously cleaned up the floor and tried to leave things as spotless as possible (which is something my former plumbing service apparently doesn't care about doing). He also gave me tips on how to prevent the issue from reoccurring in the future and avoid having plumbing issues.
Payment was easy and the receipt is emailed to you. Make sure to mention the $49 discount coupon from their website when you book the job.
The only negative about this company is that they get so many calls (since they provide great service) so it may take a few hours until someone gets back to you. If you want great plumbing service, Rocket Plumbing is the company to contact.
If I have any future plumbing issues, this will be the first place I call. 3.5 stars maybe? Tech was very polite and professional.
He did a great job replacing a kitchen faucet. However, that seemed exorbitantly over priced ($399 for a faucet install?!).
Not sure that the other issues he addressed are actually "fixed". He seemed unsure.
I also don't love that they offer a discount in exchange for a Google review... bit of a conflict in that! Had a great experience with them.
I called on Wednesday and 2 days later Eric was there. He diagnosed the issue quickly and completed the repair within an hour.
I don't know if the cost was competitive but I'm satisfied with the work and will use them again. Great service and above my expectations.
Catch basin repair and scope of the sewer line . Lead plumber was Luis Silva.
Communication and timing was on point. I will definitely use their services again.
This morning I could smell sewer gas in my bathroom and knew it was time to have the wax seal replaced. I called Rocket and they had appointments open the same morning.
Jeff and Joel came out, did the job, and just left now after cleaning the area around the toilet. They and dispatcher Eric were friendly, cordial, and very customer oriented.
There was a $49 discount on their website, so I mentioned that and the discount was reflected on the invoice. I didn't call around for price comparisons, but as far as I'm concerned you can't put a price on customer service, so it was a win for all of us.
This weekend I learned that plumbers are the ones you call to fix a gas leak! *Insert "The More You Know" graphic* Yes, we got a call from the renter of my old condo that the gas company had been by to investigate a leak in the building and (OF COURSE BECAUSE 2020 IS A MONSTER) out of almost 100 units, ours was the one that had the leak. The gas company turned off the gas and said, "C-ya!" and told us to find someone to fix it.
I didn't even know who to call for such a repair but a quick internet search told me that many plumbers do it. So I immediately went to Yelp and started searching.
A few "request a quote" searches later and the speedy Rocket Plumbers reached out to me to say they could send someone by the next day (aka, today) to fix it. We were lucky (lol) that the pipe with the leak was already IDed by the gas company and that was easily accessible in the basement so they just had to come and check everything out and make the repair which took just a couple of hours.
Admittedly it wasn't a super cheap job but crucial for safety so it had to be done. The communication with the company was great and everyone was so friendly and pleasant.
From the first communication via request a quote to the fella who called me this morning to set up the appointment, to the technician calling me to tell me it was all finished, the conversations were friendly and easy going. It's always stressful when something goes wrong and you're a few states away but I'm grateful that we could find a reliable company to work with.
Thanks, Rocket Plumbing! I do not leave many reviews but Rocket Plumbing really helped me out quickly. I had plumbing problems that needed to be fixed ASAP and they got to me quicker and were extremely helpful.
Nick and Mike were on time, professional and know what they are doing. 5 star experience The amount of money the company charges for a clogged drain is inappropriate and honestly ridiculous.
389 dollars for a clogged floor drain that took 30 minutes. After asking for a discount I got it down to 319 which come to find out there are coupon discounts on their website for 79-so not even the full coupon discount.
Then add on the 3% charge they add on for credit card use. This company also installed my tankless water heater and put it so close to the wall, we were unable to get the serial number off the machine without taking it completely off the wall when I had a leak.
If I was not in a time crunch, I would have done my research and got more quotes. There should be no reason you charge near 400 dollars for a 30 minute snaked drain.
I would avoid the company. Update: I had originally given a lower star.
But the owner did get in touch with me and adjust the price to a price that was much more reasonable. He was very nice and you can tell he cares.
Rocket Plumbing did a great job replacing my kitchen faucet. They provided a written estimate up front and were transparent with their pricing.
They charged me what they said they would. Eric called ahead of time to provide an ETA, showed up on time, and completed the job quickly and cleanly.
Would use them again in the future. Used rocket to fix a burst water pipe and replace a water heater.
Responsive, knowledgeable, friendly. Thanks so much! Old building, old pipes and the one draining my kitchen sink developed a hole.
Recommended by FIXER - another great company -- Rocket responded to my call within minutes and Eric B was soon on his way, arriving well within an hour of my initial call. After checking things out, Eric gave me his estimate and it's associated costs.
He completed the pipe replacement quickly and was gone. Eric was polite, thorough, and conscientious, and I've no complaints.
Should I ever find myself in need of a plumber, I'll call Rocket Plumbing and hope Eric B is available. This was one of 4 companies I contacted for estimate to perform under kitchen sink plumbing replacement.
They were very prompt in answering my questions and providing an estimate. It's almost funny how many plumbing companies play games and act like they are doing you a favor by taking your hundreds(thousands?) of dollars for a job they do in mere minutes, not this company.
I felt like a valued customer the whole time. Work was performed professionally and promptly at the time he said he would show up (one other company showed up an hour after the 3 hour window HE scheduled to perform estimate, I of course decided not to use them even though the estimate was slightly below Rocket) Thank you and would definitely use again.
Amazing response! Called them late one evening and got a call back by 7:15am. Great customer service on the phone and dispatched somebody within 30 mins.
It was just a water valve shutoff I couldn't find kn my new home which they helped out on and didn't charge me anything. I'll be a homeowner here for a long tome and I know I'll have issues and will definitely call up rocket again.
Ryan and Zee came out and were super professional and polite. Please use rocket! I contacted many companies to get an estimate for a sump pump and a battery backup, and Rocket Plumbing is one of the only ones that offered a free in person estimate, which I really appreciated.
During installation, the tech, Luis, found that our old iron plumbing stack was in danger of clogging, and offered to either clean it as best as he could or replace part of it with PVC for a long-term fix; we went with the second option even though it cost more, and we're very happy with the quality of the work done. I had toilet work done in late August.
All went perfectly. During the payment, I was charged sigqnificantly more than what I was quoted - over $1200! I called the company back multiple times to get an itemized receipt to have anyone make sense of it.
Finally spoke with a manager who agreed that the price I paid did not make sense. I haven't heard back from them.
It's been over two weeks. I do not recommend this company.
(I look forward to revising or deleting this review if they open lines of communication to solve the problem) Things are never going great if you need to call a plumber, you know? Like, you are never just sitting around having a nice Saturday afternoon and then think to yourself, you know let's a call plumber. When you are calling a plumber then you have a problem.
You have a problem you can't fix on your own. Which is when you want to call Rocket Plumbing.
Kind, knowledgeable, and fast. This is now our go to plumber.
We had a crack in our mainline which was causing drains to backup. Another company quoted us $20K to do the repair.
We called Rocket for a second opinion. They came the next day and discovered the break was in the yard, not under the house and did the job in half a day for 1/3 the cost.
We were flabbergasted and grateful. Since then, they have come back to do a few other jobs.
They have been professional, timely, and given us great options. I cannot say enough good things about this plumbing company! Have used them in the past with mixed results.
Scheduled work to be performed, took the day off of work to work with there schedule which was initially 9-noon. Was advised mid morning that it would be closer to 1pm.
Finally got a call at 3:45pm advising they just finished up prior job. We have used Rocket a handful of times for plumbing projects and couldn't be happier with their work! We've had Dan come out a few times and he is always great.
Very professional and knowledgeable! J&J Logan Square Rocket plumbing installed my new water supply line into my 3 flat as well as decommissioned gas lines and trimmed out the 3rd floor claw foot tub. The work for the water supply line was arduous and painstaking, but after weeks of coordinating with the City of Chicago, Rocket performed the installation perfectly.
Mike in particular was exceptional at managing the work site, completing the work, and making sure everything was clean throughout. Tom's work on the inside with the gas line and claw foot tub looks exceptional and was very efficient.
I absolutely loved working with Rocket and would absolutely use them in the future. Rocket Plumbing did a great job at cleaning out the buried pipe in my yard that connects to my downspout.
If you have a clogged pipe, I recommend their services. Moved into a new house and needed a toilet installed.
Eric came out and walked me through the whole process. Rocket plumber rates are super great and service was beyond awesome! Are you looking for a professional plumber to take care of pipes installation all over your house? Probably you want someone to install the new heater you got on amazon.
Rocket Plumbing will work every bid you want them to do. Even cleaning your drainage system, Rocket Plumbing will do that in just a couple of minutes.
The company has a fast customer service available that will cater to your needs. No matter how big or small your problem is, they will be obliged to offer their services with negotiable payment.
They accept credit card payments. They visit you in person to check any issues and will be back to fix them later.
Communication is everything for this plumbing company. They pay extensive attention to every detail to ensure that their client has 100% satisfaction.
They have 24 hours emergency service ready to respond to any problem you have with no extra fees. They are certified professionals that offer a large area of services across Chicago area.
Moreover, for the past few decades, the company was trusted by hundreds of customers around the city. Their reputation was proven the worth of acknowledgment and recommended to be repaired with a professional touch.
I was hesitant at first because of the distance between my home in the Western suburbs and where they're located in the city, however, they made it work! I had a sewer line backup last night where dirty water was coming up my basement toilet and running over the brim. The water came up over the brim half hour after I had given up plunging for the previous hour the water that didn't go down, hence my clue as to why the main sewer line was backed up.
I reached out to someone there. The dispatcher gave me a call back immediately.
He scheduled a time and told me to expect a call from Mike. Mike gave me a call shortly after and told me he'd be here by the top of the hour.
He and his partner, Peter, was 15 minutes early. I appreciated that.
I wanted to learn about what he was doing, as I like learning new things. He didn't mind me standing there and asking questions and did so with a great attitude and a smile.
In about an hour or so, he was able to not only rod out space for water to flow to the sewer, but he was able to run a tool down the line to clear the four or five root balls out of the line. He ran a camera to confirm what was down there before removing them and he ran a camera after.
The bill was right, but I've also always understood the perspective of quality and value over quantity, as previous plumbers just rodded the pipe, which is simply a band-aid to cover a bigger issue, whereas Rocket Plumbing provided the quality and value. Along with what I paid, there is a two year warranty to warrant their work in case I need them to come out to resolve the same matter.
I worked with Rocket Plumbing this week to replace two faucets, address a drain clog and replace a garbage disposal. They were extremely easy to work with--from the initial scheduling to provide a quote, all the way through the installation.
My home inspector had flagged a few other potential issues that I asked Jimmy from Rocket Plumbing to review, and I felt like he was really open and honest about what was actually an issue, and what my options were, which in a few cases helped me save some money. I will definitely be calling them the next time I have a plumbing issue, and would highly recommend Jimmy to anyone else in need of a plumber.
Fast, professional and friendly. Ryan and Michael had our tub drain fixed in no time, with great communication through the entire process.
This was our second time using this company (first one was a much bigger project) and each time was hassle-free and reasonably priced. I've used Rocket Plumbing now twice for various plumbing concerns.
The first, our dishwasher broke and we found out our hot water valve didn't shut off fully. It turns out our valves were so old they had rusted and needed to be cut out.
Our plumber, Sam was nothing but honest and straightforward, he noticed the pipe was also leaking and didn't pressure me into replacing it but said I should keep an eye on it... well, when he grabbed the pipe he pushed a hole into it with his hand..
yep it needed to be replaced. Sam did a great job and also looked at all the other pipes in my condo.
A few months later, we were switching to the single sink from a double sink and I called Rocket Plumbing, Sam came out again and did an awesome job re-arranging the configuration and installing an air gap. Everything was done professionally and I would not hesitate to call again for any plumbing needs! Honest, reliable, helpful.
I am very impressed with Rocket Plumbing?. From the first call, where all my questions were answered, to the actual service--- everyone I encountered or spoke to was great.
We needed to do a hydro-jetting to our sewage lines and called about ten different companies. Of the ten we called, only Rocket described different scenarios, different price scenarios, and the entire process.
Before they ever came out to my house, I had a thorough understanding of what would happen, best/worst-case scenarios, and next steps. As a homeowner, it feels great to know I have found a reliable company that says what they mean, does what they say, and is reliable.
Also, highly recommend them for hydro jetting; other companies were going to charge us to hydro jet and then an additional cost to send the camera down the sewer. At Rocket, the total price is for 2 hours of hydro jetting AND the essential step of the camera going down the drain (how else would you ever know the? hydro?-jetting? even worked?)? Woke up in the morning to find out we had no hot water once again.
We decided to try a different plumber, then the one we normally used. On a family recommendation, we decided to give Rocket Plumbing a try.
Amazing customer service and quality work. They were able to get us scheduled in the same day.
Our plumber, Eric B kindly called before arriving to let us know when he would be here. He was also able to get us in a bit earlier than our scheduled time, which worked out great.
Upon arrival, we explained to him what was happening and some history behind the water heater woes we had been having. He explained very clearly what our options would be including timing and cost estimates.
My family and I discussed the options and ultimately decided on replacing the water heater. Eric was able to replace the water heater the same day.
He was very respectful of our property and cleaned up after the install. The new water heater is working well and the family has noticed that this water heater is much quieter than the last and the hot water temperature is perfect.
We found our new plumber and highly recommend Rocket Plumbing. Super fast, they unclogged the dishwasher drain and fixed the disposal....I don't expect plumbing to always be so fast, but they were in and out in an hour.
They were upfront about costs and everything, so I didn't feel like they were trying to rip me off. Professional and polite plumbers, highly recommended.
Thanks guys! Rocket Plumbing has done a great job for me again! I called around 8:20am and had someone (Nick) out by 10am. Nick arrived promptly, immediately greeted me, put on booties to ensure no dirt was tracked in and started to check out the problem.
Nick was thorough and friendly, explaining my issue and possible solves. He also took a quick look at one other small issue I had.
If you have a plumbing problem, definitely contact rocket plumbing. I've been happy with their service both times - quick, efficient, friendly and reasonable.
It's horrible to have a plumbing issue but rocket plumbing will nicely solve it for you without any concerns!!! 5 stars plus! I had them come out to fix my tub spout and a couple extra things (fix sink areator and install my bidet lol) Sam was awesome, super nice, helpful, clean, and got everything done fast! No upsells or anything annoying like that and he explained a bunch of stuff to me so I could mayyyybe attempt to do something myself in the future if the tub spout broke again. Great experience! We needed a plumbing issue fixed in our 2nd bathroom & wanted new toilets before BOTH cleaning people cleaned our new condo this Wednesday afternoon & our official move-in date this Friday.
I reached out to Rocket very late Monday evening for a quote & they got back to me around 7 am Tuesday morning. Despite being pretty busy/booked up they managed to fit us in this morning before the cleaning people arrived in the afternoon.
Jake & Tyler were very nice, professional, & efficient. Jake went above & beyond by answering all our plumbing questions & even gave us plumbing/water tips since my husband & I are first-time homeowners.
Our new toilets look great. I never thought I'd write a review about toilets or plumbing, but there's a first time for everything.
I 100% recommend Rocket to all of you for a job well done by honest & good people! Professional, fast work and clear communication. These folks did a wonderful job! Incredible plumbing Company and support.
Extremely knowledgeable, will fix the issue at hand quickly, and are not looking to nickel and dime you for every little thing. End of day not saying they are going to do service every time for free, but Rocket is VERY fair, their reps are kind and helpful and don't mind you watching or asking questions...
I originally found out about this Company from a neighbor who installed a new water heater. Even though they were servicing her building, they came over and gave me their thoughts on an item I was having some issues with.
No charge and took the time to explain the issue and help me out. Also used Rocket for some toilet issues and they were not only super fast to install new hardware, but stuck around to make sure it worked properly and my concerns were addressed.
Their phone rep is very helpful and tries best to identify the issue and give prices, but of course you need onsite inspection by their techs to identify the issue and quote official prices. Put it this way, if I run into a plumbing issue down the road? This is who I'm calling.
As for someone giving them a 1 star for showing up late... *yawn* I guess that's the same person that expects a hospital to drop everything they're doing for stubbed toe.
A+, 10/10 service. You wont be disappointed.
Finding a good plumbing Company is not an easy task and a necessity as water/plumbing damage is one of the worst things that can happen to your home. Get this Company in your back pocket asap.
I called Rocket Plumbing recommended by my condo association. Scheduling went smooth & quick turn around.
The 2 workers who arrived were so friendly & quickly resolved the issue. They further assisted me in setting up my shower head.
I will definitely be contacting Rocket Plumbing for any future plumbing issues. Thank you for your help! We've used Rocket Plumbing for basic toilet maintenance (replacing the stopper), water heater replacement, and emergency sewer backup and overflow in our home.
They have always been friendly, competent, timely, and affordable. When we had our sewer backup emergency, they were able to get to us in just a couple of hours.
Mike was great; he diagnosed the problem, fixed the blockage in the sewer line, prevented the overflow from spreading throughout the house, and cleaned up afterwards. Rocket Plumbing gets all the stars.
Highly recommend! I have to rate them 3.5 to 4 stars because at the end, the plumber was able to diagnose the issue and fix my issue. No more leaks, hooray! However, it was not smooth from the beginning.
Our plumbing issue was in the bathroom. There was a leak behind the shower/tub wall.
Water was leaking from our unit into two units below us. Horrifying, yes.
We did not know why, so we had Rocket Plumbing to come in to diagnose the problem. Two plumbers came in, very professional, very nice guys, no problems there.
The problem was they were not thorough, gave us the wrong diagnose, gave us an estimate, and left within less than 10 minutes. I get that they are professionals and would be able to tell what the issue is in less than 5.
After spraying the wall with the shower head, they concluded water is leaking behind the wall because we have cracked wall tiles. I told them that it might not only be the issue and ask if they are sure that they do not need to do further test.
They declined and said no, that they are 99% sure that was the problem. I was expecting them to begin the repair, but they just gave me an estimate and left, leaving me with unusable shower.
I was totally skeptical that the problem was the cracked tile so I decided to run my own test. I turned on the shower head and spray the tub and avoided the cracked tiles.
Neighbors notified me they are seeing water coming down their unit. It became obvious to me that these plumbers did not even do this simple test to begin with and jump to their own conclusion.
From this point on, my experience with Rocket Plumbing turned around completely. I contacted Andres, the first person who I scheduled the appointment with, and he responded immediately and reached out to the field manager regarded our problem with the plumbers.
I asked if they could dispatch someone else as soon as possible to address our issue. I received a call the next day from the field manager saying that a new plumber will be coming to give us a proper diagnose and that they were sorry.
A new plumber came out, went through all the steps to test the leakage, found where the leak was coming from, confirmed with our neighbor of the leak, and then gave us an estimate. He was able to fix the leak right after on the same day.
He was very professional and clean after himself. thank you Rocket Plumbing.
Overall, although there was a little hiccup in the beginning, they were very professional and responded quickly. Rating: 3.5 to 4 Stars! Rocket Plumbing saves me again!! Had a horrible pipe backup and I'm in a ground level condo so just imagine the mess and smell.
Somehow they fit me in their schedule on a Friday late afternoon. Jimmy and Eddie show up diagnosed diagnose the problem in about 10 minutes and have me cleaned and cleared out in about 30.
The were polite, clean, professional and hysterical. This company is amazing!!! I needed a hot water heater replaced.
After calling & leaving messages at several plumbing companies & getting excuses of why they could not do the job in a timely manner, Rocket Plumbing called back in 20 minutes. I was given a quote on the phone & by email.
The appointment was made for 9am the next day. Danny & Eric arrived on time, had the new unit & piping with them, put down a tarp to prevent floor damage and had it done in 2.5 hours.
They are very friendly, knowledgeable, professional & an asset to the company. I will use them again when needed & highly recommend them for your plumbing needs.
CORRECTION : I am located in Evanston Il, not San Francisco CA. as noted.
Great job. Great price.
Great communication. Mike really took great care of our cracked sewer line with a hydro-jet cleaning and stent liner repair.
Price was 1/6 of what a competitor quoted; who wanted to bust up the concrete foundation. Rocket's technology made than unnecessary This is probably to he the attention of this company.
Quote was estimated but After calling 3 times leaving my email for an estimate of replacing a pipe leaking the Company plumber did not even call back to tell he is busy or do not want to send me a quote for my condominium. There is also another point: the water heater has a leak in the pipe conduit with gas and although there are pipes connected to the water heater I was asked to call another company t Who does HVAC.
Really do I have to chase you to give business? I am unsure how communications are being handled. Every time I have been promised to receive a call back and after a month I still do not have a quote I guess you are not respectful to customers and not willing to give you business referral.
This is really not good standard of work ethics. I am not happy to chase a quote My condominium association has used Rocket Plumbing in the past with mediocre results.
Not particularly responsive, but they got the job done in the end. The last time out they told me I probably needed to replace a major pipe between two units in our building.
They pulled the toilet out (so it couldn't be used) then didn't follow up as they promised to. After waiting for 2 weeks (it was a guest bathroom), I called another plumber who fixed the problem in less than an hour.
It was a straight forward repair. Beware, some folks at Rocket may be ok, but it seems like some of their workers are not above making up work to overcharge their customers.
I contacted Rocket before leaving this review. After speaking with an employee and a dispatcher, the owner did not contact me before close of business that day (I was told he was on a job).
Rocket Plumbing has high quality plumbers and professional service. I have been working with Ryan and Z the past several months.
Most importantly, they are skilled and know how to solve problems. They are also honest about what the issue is and whether or not a significant repair is needed.
I also appreciate their promptness and level of service. Highly recommend! We used Jake and Tyler, and they were great.
Showed up when they said they would, charged a fair price, and did what they said they would. Highly recommended.
Jake is really good! He explained well on how the leak happened and why it happened. After he fixed the problem with my shower valve, he also gave me advices on future precautions that I can take to identify leaking issue in the early stage.
I will recommend Rocket Plumbing. I needed the valve on my water line under the kitchen sink replaced because it was a saddle valve that is no longer code and was also corroded; I couldn't shut the water off and needed a new fridge installed.
Messaged Rocket through Yelp and they got back to me within the hour. They gave me a quote online after I described the job and sent them pics, no need to send anyone out.
The quote might have been a bit high at $409, but it was extremely easy and convenient and they had a $49 off coupon. The other six companies I contacted said they flat out couldn't/wouldn't do the job or it would take two weeks before someone could come by for a quote which would cost a dispatch fee.
Dan came by and did a great job replacing the valve. It's been a few weeks and no leaks and the fridge was successfully installed.
Rocket Plumbing is great and I would definitely use again. Amazing job! Our tech Micheal was on time, courteous and did an excellent job explaining the process of hydro-jet drain cleaning.
Highly recommended. Rocket Plumbing is an outstanding business.
They're respectful, honest and friendly. I had a pipe freeze and they were there promptly and assessed the situation honestly.
They were clean and organized. It's really hard knowing where to go to get a great plumber.
I won't only be using them again in the future, I would highly recommend them to anyone. If you're looking for a great plumbing service please give them a call and save the headache of dealing with someone you can't trust.
Thanks again Rocket Plumbing for the help! Great service, they had someone out to my house while every other plumber in the city wasn't able to make it for a few days. They were transparent with their pricing and what they needed to do.
We've used Rocket Plumbing for a number of issues in our condo and have always had incredible experiences. Today we woke up to no water running in our house.
I called Rocket Plumbing and they were able to squeeze us in last minute on Christmas Eve. Ryan and Zee came out and did a thorough check of the plumbing and were able to fix it and get hot water back and running.
Anytime we've had somebody come out they are detailed, thorough and explain the problem very clearly. Rocket Plumbing is the best!! In early January 2017, Nick quickly and expertly installed a new water heater in my condo after coming out on NYE for a quote.
And I never had a problem with the unit at all! In October 2018, my upstairs neighbor's water heater blew and caused a lot of damage to my unit, which required the construction company to remove my water heater and HVAC so that the drywall behind could be replaced; both were reinstalled without incident. Two months later (on NYE, of course), I noticed some water on the floor next to my water heater and my heart SANK.
The plumber that did the uninstall/reinstall two month earlier came out and said that he couldn't find the leak so the only solution is a brand new water heater. Then Nick arrived and within 90 seconds found that the water line to the humidifier was not tightened all of the way - a quick turn of the bolt and NO MORE LEAK! I am so thrilled with Nick and Rocket! The office had quick responses to my inquiries and knowledgeable, super nice, professional work from Nick.
Thank you so much!! Had such a great experience with Rocket. I'm a remote landlord and needed someone who wouldn't take advantage of my absence and provide a good experience for my tenant and that's exactly what they provided.
Sam and Luis were kind, professional, helpful, and fair. Although I hope to not need a plumber, if ever I do, it's reassuring to know I have a company I can truest.
For real, such a good experience! Tom and Mike came out last week to help fix an clogged pipe. They were professional and very mindful of their surroundings wearing all the appropriate covid protection gear.
I was really satisfied with the service and will use Rocket Plumbing in the future again. Sent them a request for a quote, got no reply after a week.
Seems strange but probably it happened for the better... Cannot say enough great things about Rocket Plumbing.
Sam was the technician that worked on our kitchen. He is awesome! So professional and so quick.
I would use them again and again! I highly recommend Rocket! It's hard to find a decent plumber in this city and after having multiple bad experiences with plumbing contractors over the last month I was doubtful these folks would change my tune. I was pleasantly surprised to deal with competent people who actually cared about fixing their customer's plumbing issues.
I contacted Rocket Plumbing to deal with a clogged sink that occurred recently in our home. They sent out a really amazing crew who were professional and thorough in clearing the drain.
The last plumber we used to clear the sink didn't really get the drain as clear as they could have and took off as soon as things appeared to work, but these guys took their time to make sure everything was good and proper and even ended up routing the drain twice once they noticed that the clog wasn't completely cleared up. They were incredibly careful with all of the cabinets and worked super smoothly! I'll be using this company in the future for all of our plumbing services.
I called Brian at 8pm on New year's day and he walked me through shutting off our building's water when the pipes burst. It was the coldest new year's day in forever and plumbers were essentially not taking calls.
The next day he arrived by 10am and stayed until all the pipes were fixed. It's been a week and no problems.
I'm not promising he will 100% be available at any hour of day. But he took my call at a high demand time when he didn't know if our fix would be a thaw, 1 little pipe to replace or tons (it was tons).
He's followed up inquiring if everything is ok and really really knew what he was doing. The epitome of professional.
Other contractors should learn from Brian. Jake and Tyler were great.
Very professional and courteous. We needed our our sink waste pipe to be replaced and they both took care of that efficiently.
I've used Rocket Plumbing 2 additional times and every time I need assistance, their services go above and beyond. Highly recommend them.
Rocket Plumbing has fantastic service. As a first time customer, I needed a fix for a leaking pipe.
They were positive over the phone, came out the same day, and Ryan quickly solved the issue and kindly gave us some tips to look out for in the future. First time really dealing with a plumbing issue as a new homeowner.
The Rocket Plumbing crew was very personable and efficient. They arrived on time, even a little early but you won't hear me complaining about that! They took the time to explain options and costs.
Added bonus, they even cleaned up after their visit. Would definitely recommend Rocket Plumbing to others! I contacted Rocket Plumbing to get an idea of how to handle grease in the drain pipes of a 40 year old 12 unit condominium.
Their suggestion was to hydro-jet, I never heard of this method? Brian the owner explained all the details came out gave me a quote and Rocket Plumbing went to work. They did an absolute through job removing what looked like blocks of grease, although it was nasty it was satisfying knowing that no major pipe replacement job had to be quoted and ran by the board and owners.
I just have to say thanks to Brian and his team for working in an efficient and cost-effective way that saved our building so much money. I will use Rocket Plumbing in future.
We've been happy with Rocket Plumbing. First impression was another company called them it to fix something they couldn't.
From there, they gave us a good bid on additional work. Communication was prompt and informative before acceptance and during the work.
I felt like possible issues and approaches were all explained and covered well. No "gotcha" type charges during or after the work, as well.
Had a great experience with Dan. Quickly able to schedule appointment, communicated when nearby (within appointment window), free estimate, clear explanation of recommendations and pricing, quickly completed the repair work, respectful.
He also provided a few handyman type recommendations unrelated to my repair. Would definitely use them again.
While their employees do wear N95 masks, they not wear gloves or shoe coverings as stated at the top of this page or as I was told on the phone when I asked. The plumber who came out to fix my sink pulled his mask down to talk to me.
I promptly told him to put it back on. I am pleased with the work that they did and they were in and out within an hour, they did arrive 1/2 an hour past the 2-hour window because one of the guys needed to stop for lunch.
(I was told this when they called to let me know they were going to be late. At least they called).
I had to have my kitchen sink rodded (not sure if that's the proper term) and part of a pipe replaced. They charged me $644 for this! I nearly lost my cookies! Are you kidding me? And then the plumber left the mess behind for me to clean up.
I still can't get over the sticker price! Very polite and timely, they were very educational as well. Highly recommend and will be using them again soon!'''.
