    Ty and Andrew were very helpful in coming and assessing our issue as a local business. They were in and out super fast. Only complaint was not about them but we were just given an incorrect estimate of arrival from the desk people the first time around. The second time was correct. It was nice also getting a text before hand letting them know they were on the way and introducing themselves.

  • Review 2 (2024-12-26 - Rating: 5)

    The technician who came out, Michael Wasilewski, was polite, courteous, and knowledgeable. It was a pleasure working with him. There was a glitch in the installation which required a second visit, but he came back early the next day and took care of everything quickly and professionally.

    Very good experience. Explanations about current issues, recommended fixes and the repair process were all clear. All of my questions were answered clearly. I understood what they were doing and why. All staff were prompt and courteous. They took extra care to avoid damaging a special tree, a great relief to us. Rick, the pipe lining technician, in particular was helpful explain the sophisticated pipe lining technology.Also, the cost was over 20% less than another well-known local plumbing company.I recommend Blanton without reservations.

    Josh saved Christmas! Our kitchen sink needed to be rooted on Christmas Day. Josh came out, got the job done, and was in great spirits. He’ll be part of our family Christmas stories forever. Oh, and as he left, since he was parked in our garage he insisted on taking out the trash. Serious, he was fantastic.

    We love J. Blanton Plumbing Co. and are so glad to be a part of their no drip club. They have saved us a ton of money and headache by proactively finding possible issues and getting in front of it. Christian Morales from J. Blanton has been over to perform service a couple of times. He is extremely respectful and thorough. At his recent visit, he not only did a comprehensive job of preventive sewer and water heater maintenance, he went above and beyond to even check the toilet of our coach house, which was not a part of his scheduled service.

  • Review 7 (2024-10-04 - Rating: 5)

    Our technician Val was very efficient, worked quickly to install our water heater. Val had all the parts needed on the truck to avoid any delays.The work Val performed was terrific. Val’s attention to detail and workmanship were among the best I have experienced.I am happy you have people like Val working for you. We will definitely use your services again.

  • Review 8 (2024-09-30 - Rating: 4)

    The technician was great. He knew what he was doing. I would have given a 5 rating except the management didnt give him the correct parts on the truck to fix our problem. He was forced to go to a hardware store to get the parts. I expected management to make sure the correct parts are available for the technician. Again the technician was great, but he was left down byManagement.

    Rick, Steven and their team did an outstanding job diagnosing our problem and coming up with the best solution to our very difficult sewer nightmare. 60 + year house with disintegrating cast iron pipes everywhere. Team installed liners and managed to save the finished floors. Rick and Steve were real pros that know what they’re doing and excellent working with customers. I was very comfortable with this team knowing that they were honest and that they had my back. Thanks D.

    Vincent did a great job repairing my toilet. He was very professional, knowledgeable, courteous, explained everything clearly, and answered all my questions. He was on time, and communicated arrival ahead of time. I’ll definitely call J. Blanton Plumbing next time I have a job.

  • Review 11 (2024-12-06 - Rating: 5)

    I called J.Blanton plumbing to look at my water softener because I wasnt getting pressure in my fridge and the ice machine wasnt working well. I thought maybe there was build up in the lines. I had Edgar come and look at everything. He helped me fix my fridge problem and took the time to look at out water heater and gave us advice on what to do next. He was very knowledgeable and layed out the pricing and how we can go about getting everything fixed. We will definitely be calling them back when we have a problem or to install our new water heater.

  • Review 12 (2024-09-04 - Rating: 5)

    I called at noon and I had a technician at my house at 3:30. Edgar was amazing, he was thorough explained everything step by step. Gave me options with up front pricing. And he stayed late to finish the job instead of me having to take another day off. I would highly recommend Edgar!

  • Review 15 (2023-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    Andrew A. and Justin helped a ton. Explained everything very well. Put us to ease with our flooding. Cleaned out or main sewage line and ran a camera through to ensure we didn’t have any further issues. Did a quick job, laid tarps to cover our furniture and cleaned up afterwards!

  • Review 16 (2024-09-21 - Rating: 5)

    Kyle did a great job! It was a more complicated fix replacing my main water shut off valve, under the sink valves, and install a new facet. He was very polite, efficient and had humor!

  • Review 17 (2024-12-06 - Rating: 4)

    5 stars for the tech Greg he was awesome and professional, 4 stars for the company, I was disappointed that I was told over the phone that the service for my home would be done the same day and I had to wait the next to the next day, yes towards the evening but the service was great and made sure everything was smooth. Tech Greg did a great job!

  • Review 18 (2024-07-21 - Rating: 5)

    Great experience working with J Blanton Plumbing. We called in need of emergency plumbing help and Edgar came out right away to assess the situation and arranged to help us the very next day. He was even helping from his vacation to fill in his coworkers!When our problem needed more work to fix, they sent another crew right away to resolve the issue completely. Jake and Colton explained everything, and got our pipes working again.Informative, helpful, great response time. Will Absolutely use J Blanton again.

  • Review 19 (2024-11-01 - Rating: 5)

    Recent update: Edwin and crew did an amazing job doing extensive work over two days. Edwin was detailed, considerate, communicated well, and was readily available for follow on questions after the job was completed. Highly professional and excellent work.Weve had dig crews, sewage/drain specialists, water treatment specialists, and plumbers come out to complete a variety of jobs at our house and every experience has been excellent. Saul, Rick, Kevin, Evan, Alex, Vince, Ian and others (whom we dont remember their name) did an outstanding job. They were highly professional, detailed, and responsive throughout. J. Blanton retains some of the most skilled plumbers and specialists that weve come across. Highly recommended!

  • Review 20 (2024-12-06 - Rating: 4)

    Plumber was friendly and explained what he was doing. Water heater was quickly installed. There were problems removing a screw in a capsule in my bathroom shower. He suggested replacing the whole unit, which involves smashing some tiles. This seems excessive, as I cant see how a screw cant be removed.

    Josh saved the day on Christmas morning! I discovered a sewer back up late on the 24th, freaked out because I was hosting 19 people for Christmas dinner, called for an appointment the morning of the 25th, and Josh showed up an hour later. He couldn’t have been more friendly and professional, especially considering it was Christmas morning! He was a pleasure to work with. He seemed very knowledgeable and honest, and helped a frazzled mom on Christmas morning! Thank you, Josh!!

  • Review 22 (2024-09-21 - Rating: 5)

    The techs were knowledgeable, timely and professional. Left us with all the information we needed for any possible issues, explained the mechanics of the booster water pump. Very impressed, very satisfied with their service.

  • Review 23 (2024-12-24 - Rating: 5)

    John was super helpful. I called because my new dryer wasn’t working and I thought the gas line was the issue. He took the extra step to figure out that the issue was a clogged pipe.

  • Review 24 (2024-07-17 - Rating: 5)

    Chase and his crew handled a sewer repair project (cracked pipe) professionally: they answered questions, explained the process, worked steadily, and cleaned up thoroughly. They were respectful throughout of people and property. The project involved removing patio bricks, and they were careful not to damage the bricks during removal (a major concern of mine). Bricks were stacked neatly for later reinstallation by a landscaper. They also rodded the sewer to remove tree roots and checked the operation of the ejector pump. Very satisfied with their work and the follow-up.I have used J Blanton for many plumbing jobs over the years and have found the technicians to be knowledgeable and helpful and the work professional.

  • Review 25 (2024-09-22 - Rating: 5)

    Robert was great - he was respectful of our home, thoroughly explained the situation, and offered next steps. Unfortunately, the plumbing issue cannot be fixed in our unit, but I recommended J. Blanton to the upstairs owner. Thanks, Robert and Martha!

    Andrew and Ty were fantastic! They were incredible consultative throughout. Great problem solvers and educators - will use again!

  • Review 27 (2024-09-06 - Rating: 5)

    The cast iron drain pipe busted open from the the cap (cast iron plug was corroded ) unbeknownst to my elderly Mother. My sister was caring for Mom and found sewage on the basement floor. I called 5 different plumbers leaving vm and actually talking to 3 other plumbing companies who were booked the entire day and could come out the next afternoon. The 5th call was the charm. J Blanton in Naperville were able to send a tech out within 1.5 hours. After it was assessed and a game plan was made the tech said it would be repaired tomorrow morning. Also, it was cleared that we could use the downstairs toilet and kitchen.The next day in the morning 2 techs came out: Alex and Teddy.They were both respectful knowledgeable and able to explain what occurred. The pipe was removed and replaced. It was tested with flow of water from upstairs.The sewage was removed from the floor. The floor was sanitized and clean. Mom can go down safely to the basement to do her laundry.We are very please with Teddy and Alex service. Please note both were very personable and had a very kind demeanor which is BONUS SERVICE.

    Luke and Alex Cruz did a great job replacing my old galvanized pipes with new copper pipes. Fast professional friendly and reliable plumbers.

  • Review 32 (2024-10-07 - Rating: 5)

    A long story made short. I moved into a 75-year-old house last year. Did not get the sewer inspected before closing. Soon after and randomly, Nicor had to check the sewer line for the potential of the gas line sharing the same space. They encouraged me to get a plumber to inspect it. Turns out that the 75-year-old clay pipe in yard was full of roots with quite a few minor offsets where the pipes connect. (How obvious, I know.)Enter J. Blanton. For a reasonable price, they inserted 50 of trenchless UV cured PVC liner from the cleanout to the city connection. They provided camera footage of the before and after.It is always better to be on the side of preventive maintenance, than reactive repair!

    Juan and his team were great. It was kind of a ‘doozy’ of a project but they executed well and communicated issues/options throughout the process. We did a whole house re-pipe (water and waste) and are happy with the final product. I will use them in the future and would recommend you do as well.Thanks, Juan!

    It is possible that Edgar has saved me at least 20k by seeking out and solving problems that my current plumber could not find! He is professional kind respectful and it was a pleasure having him in my home as well as his assistant Jabar. These two employees are as great as I have seen in a 25 year career. I was head of HR for many of those years. J. Blanton Pluming should take very good care of them. They are worth their weight in gold!Susan Robinson

    We had a basement flood during a huge rainstorm and the guys from J. Blanton were a huge help. Andrew A. and Justin came out within about an hour of us calling and walked us through our options for repair and prevention of future floods in a straightforward and professional manner. They then came out the next day to install a new water heater. They were completely up front about about the cost and did efficient and high quality work. Wed definitely recommend them.Update:There was an active leak above the new water heater after initial installation. When I first called, the person I talked to was frankly unhelpful and said no one could come out until two days later. After putting a bucket under the leak I called again. A different person picked up and was willing to ask around to try and help us out. After a while we received a call from Andrew A., and him and Justin came back that same evening to fix the leak. Now everything is working great.

    Andrew was prompt, polite and respectful. Usually when I deal with something out of my element (cars and plumbing), I feel that I get treated differently because I am a woman.

Will definitely be using them in the future.Denise

He was very diligent to make sure all my concerns about avoiding future plumbing issues were addressed.

    Ben Cassello came to replace a valve for a kitchen hot water supply line. The original valve was 50 years old and had broken when a handyman tried to connect the new line and couldn’t find the right part. Ben said the valve was hard to find and that the problem was likely due to its age. He took care of the problem quickly and was courteous, personable, careful, professional, and efficient. He answered all my questions. Very happy with the same-day service.Side note: I think it was smart that they sent Jacob ahead of time to assess the problem and set a price. When Ben arrived, he could go directly to work with all the parts he needed.

    Connor (the repair person) was incredible! I would like him to be my plumber always.There was a big mix up yesterday with my appointment. Seems to have been a miscommunications between the dispatchers. The appointment needed to be rescheduled to today, and I lost work time yesterday waiting for him.Other than this inconvenience, I have been very happy using them and will use them again. This is the second job Blanton has done for me.

    Drew did an awesome job getting our garbage disposal installed. He took the extra step of identifying that the piping wasnt up to code, addressed the issue, and installed the disposal. Everything was done quickly and with high quality.

    JBlanton replaced our gas water heater (leaking) with a new hybrid heat pump electric model. Jake Betke came out on the weekend to assess the issue, provide recommended replacement options, and take the time to understand our specific needs. Initially I thought pricing seemed high, but after seeing the amount of equipment, parts, and actual professional labor work and time, and how efficiently it was performed, the service was a good value. Jake was very professional and knowledgeable, thoroughly explaining the equipment and the conversion process. I highly recommend their service.

    Christian was very polite, explained everything he was doing.

  • Review 97 (2022-10-21 - Rating: 5)

    The guy was respectful, thorough about installing my high toilet, with bidet. However, it was very expensive. Over $500 dollars. The guy gave me an extended warranty. His kindness, & respect towards me, & the property canceled out the high cost. Im very satisfied. I probably would not recommend them to my friends/family because they are seniors on a fixed income.

  • Review 98 (2023-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    I called for an emergency service and within an hour Jake arrived and was able to diagnose my problem. He was honest and provided me with options on how to resolve my issue.Tomorrow the team is coming to fix my problem and I’m so grateful as other plumbing companies had me waiting then provided no solution.

    J Blanton responded next day for a suspected gas leak. They presented 3 options to resolve the issue and got the fix completed start to finish within 36 hours. Might not be the cheapest option out there but I trust their quality.

  • Review 104 (2023-04-20 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 108 (2023-04-20 - Rating: 5)

    We hired J Blanton to replace a rusted, leaking pipe in our basement and another leak. We received a quote for the work which was reasonable. After removing some panels and starting the work, the repairs were more extensive. Lou found several feet of dead pipe amongst other concerns. He replaced the leaking pipe, cleaned up the plumbing lines, and honored the original quote. The work was done cleanly and professionally.

  • Review 111 (2022-10-26 - Rating: 5)

    This is the 2nd time I hired J. Blanton over the past year. Our hot water heater was still the original from when our house was built 37 years ago (they dont make them like they used to).We were concerned over its age even though it was still performing well. We asked to receive an estimate for both traditional tank system and for a tankless system. Jordan came out the following morning and spent a good deal of time with us explaining the pros and cons of both systems and we decided to stay with the traditional tank. The installation crew came out the following morning and by noon we had our new water heater installed. They cleaned up after themselves to the point I couldnt tell they were ever there. J.Blanton is the only plumbing service I will ever hire.

  • Review 112 (2023-05-06 - Rating: 5)
