Q & A

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:Do you handle frozen and burst pipes in winter?
A:Yes, it's one of our most common Lake County winter calls. We thaw and repair the line and can insulate exposed pipe to prevent a repeat freeze.
Q:Do you install battery-backup sump pumps?
A:Yes. Given how often storms knock out power here, most customers pair a primary pump with a battery backup so the basement stays dry during an outage.
Q:Are you licensed in Illinois?
A:Yes, we hold a full Illinois plumbing license and carry general liability insurance on every job.
Q:Do you give a written quote before starting work?
A:Always. You get a flat, written price after a free diagnosis, before any work begins.
Q:Which areas do you serve?
A:Waukegan, North Chicago, Gurnee, Zion, and the rest of Lake County, plus our home base of Streamwood and the northwest suburbs.
Q:Is there a warranty on the work?
A:Every repair carries a 1-year workmanship warranty, and installed parts carry the manufacturer's warranty.
