Before you let a plumber into your basement, it makes sense to check what other people say about them. This page brings together highlights from Rodding Rooter Chicago reviews posted on Google and Birdeye, shows you where to read every review in full, and explains how to share your own experience.
We’ve been clearing drains and sewer lines for Chicago homes and businesses for more than 20 years. If you’re ready to book, call (773) 588-1200 for same-day service. If you’d rather read first, the full reviews are one click away.
The highlights below are summaries of public reviews, written in our own words so they stay short. Each one links back to the platform where the customer posted it, so you can read the original in full.
Jessica M., Google: She needed her main line rodded and a new sump pump installed. A technician arrived within the hour, cleared the line, and put in a new pump with PVC piping. She described him as polite and honest, said she loved the work, and recommends us for any plumbing job.
Dr. George B., Google: His medical and dental facility had problems with its patient toilets on a Saturday. He wrote that we answered right away, gave fast service he wasn’t expecting on a weekend, and praised technicians Josh and Pete for understanding the urgency.
Kitsune N., Google: After an early-morning call, around 5 or 6 a.m., our plumber came out promptly and inspected the problem. While they waited for the building owner to approve repairs, he told them which fixtures were still safe to use. They thanked us for our kindness, quick response, professionalism, and honesty.

Comparing reviews to find the best plumber in Chicago? Ratings help, but these questions tell you even more about how a company works:
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Will I get a price before work starts? | An upfront estimate means you can say yes or no before any charges add up. |
| Will they test the line before leaving? | Running water through the system confirms the clog is cleared, not just pushed further down. |
| Can they show me the cause? | A camera inspection lets you see roots, cracks, or sags for yourself. |
| Are they available when I need them? | Backups don’t wait for business hours, so emergency availability matters. |
