Parks Plumbing & Sewer In 1981, a young Jeff Parks-the son of a local Skokie plumbing inspector-hit the bricks of Chicago with nothing more than a van and a dream. He wanted to, one day, build a Chicago plumbing company that people wouldn't just want or need, but one they knew they could trust. Almost half a century later, that dream has built a company. That dream helped put together a team of expert Chicago plumbers. That dream invented our PARKS' 'DOUBLE GUARD' SYSTEM-a backwater valve flood control system that boasts over a 99% success rate after forty years of installation.

Critical: Professionalism One of your workers just washed out some container on my property, not cool.

Victor and Liam were great. They were super friendly, did great work, and averted a disaster when my neighbor turned the water back on to the building without checking to see if the plumbing work was finished. Parks Plumbing will be my first call for any plumbing going forward. Service: Plumbing leak detection

We called Parks for some small plumbing projects at the recommendation of our home inspector. Parks was easy to book with - all done by email - and were able to come out within a week of our initial inquiry. The team - Victor and Liam - arrived on time, were direct and honest in their assessment - even waiving us off work they did not recommend - explained the work thoroughly and quoted us a fair price before starting.

They were done with the work we agreed upon before the arrival window closed and the price we got quoted was the price we paid. They also both remained masked and distanced the whole time and were very respectful of us and our home. We were very impressed with their wise counsel, their professionalism, the quality of the work, and the transparent pricing. We will definitely be using Parks' again.

Made an appointment to consult and solve an issue of over flooding back yard. Specifically explained what I needed prior to setting appointment. The specialist that arrived was an indoor basement solutions expert and could not really advise or price the project I needed. I was assured someone will contact me the next day with proper specialist which never happened. Waste of time and really unprofessional.

We had our Flood Control Done by them 7 years ago and we keep up with the once a year Maintenance and not a drop of water since. We looked at other flood control systems and there's was hands down the best for a little more money.

I've used Parks for years, both personally and professionally. Every staff member who I've worked with (on-site and admin) has been amazing. Mike has been especially great for our plumbing needs. Highly recommended!

So we have been using Parks for quite some time. We had flood control put in and have them rod out our sewer line regularly. A few years ago we were shown on the camera that there was a break in the line from the house to the main. We were told that it was not bad but should be monitored. This year it had gotten to where it needed repair. We got an estimate to dig up the area and do the repair.

While waiting to schedule we realized we had seen these pipes lined on a home improvement show. We were told this was an option. It came in only $200 more than the repair. Now the entire pipe is lined and we are done! No more rodding or worrying about other breaks. The Parks team was efficient and professional. We didn't even know they had been there they are so neat. Matt was very fair and easy to work with.

We had a negative experience with Parks'. Scheduling routine maintenance and rodding the sewer line took months. We began in May and didn't finish until the end of September. One of the times Parks' came out, a camera was broken and they couldn't complete the job. They indicated they would come out the next day, and then didn't, without a call or explanation.

It took another couple of months to get on the schedule. Parks' then invoiced us for the full job and tried to charge us interest while we awaited them to come back out to finish the job. The interest was only a couple of bucks but it takes a lot of gall to charge interest when you haven't finished the job! When they finally came back out with the camera, they left cryptic notes on the work order suggesting there might still be water in the line. We ended up having another company rod the line at a later date. Overall, I would not recommend Parks.

Christina (Office) moved up my service appt. to accommodate my schedule. Miguel expertly serviced my flood control & patiently explained the process from beginning to end. Never had such service from original installation company. From now I'm going to call PARKS' Plumbing & Sewer!
