We were on well water when our pipes sprung a leak. Unfortunately, our pipes are under the driveway and masonry walls. So we opted to tap in to city water. John Bollweg and an assistant did all the plumbing work and had a driller/borer put a line through the front yard. They prepared us in advance for what was needed, such as clearing out a section of the basement for the work and repairing the front easement after the work was completed. The job went smoothly, much more than we expected since it was complicated. John came the day before the drilling to install the interior pipe in preparation. The driller/borer came the next day and did the underground work while John excavated outside and hooked everything up inside. The entire crew was efficient and professional. They cleaned up after themselves.
Description of Work: tap in to city water

Evaluation of problem and estimate on Monday morning before Christmas. Came back the same afternoon with a partner to replace well pump in 12 degree weather using their own equipment. Project done in about 3.5 hrs. Very professional job including cleanup of the area outside.

very good
Description of Work: I have used them several times. The last was for a water heater installation. But we have had them in for sewer servicing and other plumbing jobs. They are a very honest old time service in Warrenville. The cost of components is at the standard rate, so don't expect discounts. But they are also honest and won't overcharge. The work is honest and good. I really trust them.

Plumber - sorry I don't remember his first name but he was one of the Bollweg's - arrived at my house earlier than expected, began removing old disposal in very tight quarters, installed new disposal, again in very tight quarters, and completed job within an hour. I have lived in my house for over 20 years and have dealt with J.H. Bollweg and Sons, Inc. on several occasions. I have always been very pleased with the work that was done and the immediate response to my requests for service. They do a wonderful job and always leave my home as clean as when they arrive. I will continue to use them for my plumbing needs.

My sump pump failed overnight; I called Mr. Bollweg the following morning and he came within an hour. He checked whether only the float/switch failed (which was less than a year old), but it was the pump itself. He explained the situation and showed me the new pump before installing it. I expressed some concern about the relatively short draft (6") for this model in a deeper sump, but difference between it and the old pump was minimal (2" less). He installed it promptly, along with a new check valve and the PVC piping out of the sump. This was a messy job in a crawlspace with standing water, but the work took a little more than an hour and was very equitably priced. One year guarantee on the pump. This was my first contact with Mr. Bollweg, but I will call him whenever I need plumbing service in the future.

I've had no problem with this company, but I think they are a little high. I had them put in cut off valves for the water spigots outside in 2000 and then I had a sump pump replaced for the laundry and another sump pump for the outside. I call them back whenever I have any problems.

The project went very well, and although the cost was high, it was better than I expected.
Description of Work: Disconnected water and gas lines, drained and removed old water heater, installed a water heater I had purchased elsewhere, re-assembled gas and water lines, and hauled away old water heater. This was a difficult job due to the very tight spacing of the utility closet where the water heater is located. It took two of us to get the old water heater out because it had to be lifted over a heating duct. The work was very professional and was done as efficiently as possible in the circumstances. I am very happy with their work.

I noticed that water had backed up into both sides of the double utility sink in the laundry room. After trying to clear the blockage, opening up the trap and then trying to break through again with a plunger and a hand rodder, I was prepared to admit failure and decided to call Bollweg. The woman I spoke with was very pleasant and said that someone would be at my house within an hour. He arrived shortly after, as promised, and started working on the drain. He brought in some heavier duty equipment and finally got it cleared. He cleaned up everything, packed up and all was back to normal. The serviceman was friendly and professional.
Description of Work: Opened up the blocked drain in the laundry room utility sink.

Extremely responsive and quickly did the initial job and fixed the connection I made.
Description of Work: Got a new range. The gas line coming out of the wall had an odd size of threads. Need it replaced to a standard size. Smelled a bit of gas the following day and they immediately came back out to discover (and fix) the connection at the range that I made but was leaking slightly.

They have an hourly rate that is about $91.50 and that is what they charged me. They were able to get the job done fast and the piece of pipe that they replaced wasn't even that big.
Description of Work: They replaced a corroded piece of pipe and a valve that was in my basement.
