Goode Plumbing

"Thank you for your loyalty! We strive to deliver great work at a fair price, to be upfront and honest, so that our clients know that they have a plumber that they can trust and have faith in. We also try to be extremely reliable, so if we have been anything less than, I would appreciate any feedback. I can be reached on my cell (773)407-1884. Again, thank you for your repeat business, and for your review. We look forward to being of service to you in the future. Mike Goode"

"Thank you for having us in your home to rod the bath tub and install your new sink and faucet. This was actually completed in two visits. On the first visit, we rodded a bath tub drain to remove and obstruction. It turned out that the obstruction was part of a tub drain linkage that had broken off and gone down the drain, so it was a bit more involved than a normal drain cleaning. On the second visit, we installed a pedestal type sink and wide spread faucet that the homeowner provided for us. We installed new drain components, and other items needed to complete the job. We appreciate this Member working with us and for the review here on Angie's List."

"Thank you for having us over to help with the toilet obstruction! We were happy to do this service call for you, and also appreciate your review here."

"Thank you for having us over to your home to install a new ice maker supply line. Develle, who has been working as part of our team for about five years now, completed this work. Sometimes jobs do take a little longer than it may look like they should, or cost a little more (and sometimes less!) than one may think they might, but our job is to make sure that it is done correctly rather than to rush through it. One of the things that our plumbers like about working here, is that unlike at many other companies where fast production is stressed, I tell our plumbers to be efficient but to also make sure that enough time is taken to make sure the job is done well. Unlike a company that charges an hourly amount, our prices are given to our clients up front so even if it takes us a little longer than even we expected it to, the cost to you to do the task described is unchanged!"

"Thank you very much for having us over! I am glad that you were happy with Erik and our company. He is a very good plumber and will pass along your kind words to him. Our goal is to repair the main issue at hand, but also keep an eye out in case we see a potential issue that could cause larger problems in the future."

"Thank you very much! This member called because he and the other residents of this multi unit building were running out of hot water very quickly. Upon investigation, I found that that the originally installer of the water heater made and error and reversed the cold and hot water going to and from the water heater. Normally we do not recommend any repair to a ten year old heater beyond something very basic, because they are towards the end of the average life expectancy of a modern water heater. However, I offered a repair option in addition to a replacement option, for several reasons; this was a very high quality brand, the cost of a replacement commercial heater is quite expensive, and this unit looked to be in good overall condition. I corrected the hot and cold piping issue, installed a new full size drain valve to properly flush the tank, and installed new anode rods and dip tube. Everything was cleaned, flushed and tested. I am very pleased that it has been working well for a few weeks now! I"

"Thank you for your review. I have reached out to this member regarding any of the grades that were less than an "A" to see how we could have done better for her, and am waiting for a response. This is a long time client, so we appreciate the repeat business! Our goal is of course straight A's for every client, so when I see anything less, I always try to find out how we could have done better. Looking at the price for the work, I do feel the charge was reasonable, and the parts that we use are the best quality we can find. But we need the client to feel that way as well, so I hope to hear back from her! Thank you, Mike Goode"

"Thank you for having us over! This work was done on a Friday afternoon. One of our drain cleaning machines broke down on this job, but we brought a replacement over to complete the job that same day. We appreciate this member's patience, and am glad that things worked well!"

"Thank you! I am very glad to hear that you were happy with us. We appreciate the review here as well. This work was completed using a Ridgid K1500 drain cleaning machine, which helps us do a complete, proper job."

"Thank you very much for having us over to help with the plumbing repairs! This is truly how we hope to make every client feel-providing excellent, honest service at a reasonable rate, and explaining why we are doing what we are doing. We TRULY appreciate your interest in your plumbing system and the work we were performing on it. Thank you very much for your review here as well."

"Thank you very much for the wonderful review! It truly means a lot to all of us here at Goode Plumbing. As the Member has stated, we had to replace multiple sections of burst piping, caused by a tenant leaving a basement door open during the extremely cold weather we had this winter. We are so appreciative of the multiple projects and repairs that this Member has rewarded us with. She is always pleasant to work for!"

"This Member called with a pretty dire situation-he returned from an out of town trip to find that his cleaning person left his toilet completely clogged. On top of that, she left him without so much as a single square of toilet paper. We were able to get him in soon after his late afternoon call for help. The unclogging went quickly, and since we had to charge him a minimum, we offered to replace his worn out flapper at no cost. We discovered that we were out of that particular flapper, so we made a trip to the hardware store for the replacement, and also picked up a couple of rolls of toilet paper for him. We truly do appreciate the service call and the review!"

"Thank you for having us complete this water heater installation for you. My plumber Brian is one of the nicest guys you will meet-and an excellent plumber. We are glad to have him as part of our team, and very glad that you were happy with his work and our service! Brian removed the old water heater and installed a new Bradford White unit, which is made in the USA. We cover these with a 6 year parts AND LABOR warranty, upgrade the drain valve, and use brass fittings on the inlet and outlet connections to help reduce or eliminate corrosion at those joints. We appreciate your work and your kind words!"

"Thank you very much for your very nice review! Working with this Member was very pleasant. She had an issue with some drain work under her kitchen sink as well as a new faucet for us to install. Revising the drain work went well, and we also installed the new faucet without issue. The caulk around her undermount kitchen sink had been done in the past by someone, but the job was a bit messy, so while there, we removed the old caulk and replaced it with new. We appreciate the work and this review!"

"Thank you very much for having us over to assist with the plumbing issues in your home! I am glad that you are happy with our plumber, Erik, and our company. Erik fits in well with our goal of delivering great quality parts, materials, and service at a reasonable rate. The pump that Erik installed for you is a high quality unit, with a 3 year parts and labor warranty from us. We appreciate you having us install a faucet that you purchased while he was there."

"Thank you for rewarding us with a service call! Our plumber, Bob, furnished and installed a new food waste disposal and completed some water heater maintenance. The disposal that we installed was a high quality. 3/4hp unit with a good, long warranty and should deliver many years of quiet, efficient operation. Water heater maintenance is something that is often overlooked, but will help increase it's life and efficiency. Thank you for the review and the work!"

"We appreciate being rewarded with this project! We removed old galvanized water supply piping in the basement of this member's home and replaced it with new, Type L copper. We redesigned the piping layout so that it was more efficient, and increased sizing where it would be beneficial. We also installed new shut off valves and frost resistant hose faucets as well as a new, high quality Bradford White water heater. Upon completion, we insulated the piping which will help make the system more energy efficient. Initially we obtained the proper permit from the City of Chicago, and arranged for the inspection of the job. It was a pleasure to work for this client. We appreciate the hospitality they displayed throughout the job-we know it is not easy for homeowners to live through an extended job such as this, so we try to be as unobtrusive as possible. Thank you also to this Member for the very nice review!"

"Thank you for calling me regarding your water heater. The member called late on Friday afternoon and we were able to get there that evening. We do our best to handle situations such as hers (no hot water) as quickly as we can! It turned out to be a relatively minor repair to get the water heater working again. However, as her water heater was getting close to the end of it's expected service life, we did make some suggestions and recommendations regarding a replacement unit at some point in the future. In the meantime, this unit should keep on working for a little while longer. Thank you for the service call and your review here."

"Thank you for having us over and for the very kind words! We appreciate both very much. One of our plumbers, Mike D, was able to service this Member. We do our best to communicate with our clients-we realize that, now more than ever, people are very busy. So if we are running early or late, or have a concern that we find on a job, or have advice we feel is beneficial, we realize it is important to let our clients know in advance."

"Thank you for your review. Our plumber, Bob, was able to complete the job for this member. We appreciate your having us over to complete the work and for taking the time to write this review on Angie's List!"

"Hello and thank you so much for your review! I am glad we were able to help out! We also appreciate your husband's help in moving the appliance. We can usually get help from another one of our employees, but in this case, the member was able to save some waiting time and a little money by lending some muscle. Jose has been with us for some time now and is a good, hard working guy who is particularly good at solving drain obstructions. Thank you for the service call and the review!"

"Thank you very much for having us over to help with the plumbing issues. Our job is to not only repair the issue that you called about, but to give you advise when we see another possible issue, or to answer any questions that you might have about the plumbing system in your home. I appreciate your trust in us. Thank you for your review here also!"

"Thank you for having us over to repair the issue with the temperature in your shower valve. We removed the old Kohler cartridge and installed a complete new one, as well as new o ring seals. We set the maximum temperature so that it met local code, and tested it to make sure it was operating properly. We appreciate your business as well as your taking the time to write a review about us here!"

"Thank you for having us over to remove the drain obstructions! Sometimes these issues are repaired quickly, and other times they require a bit more thought and elbow grease. We truly appreciate the service call and your kind words here on Angie's List."
