Get matched with top gas piping pros in Champaign, IL

"We had been having problems with an exterior silcock dripping while in the off position; as a result of landscapers over tightening it.  I was concerned the entire silcock might need to be replaced, rather than only the internal parts such as the washers; because a plumbing expert at a local home supply store said it would be unlikely to find internal parts to match/work.  The concern was due to the fact that our only access to the water supply connection point to the silcock (i.e., silcock extends 12 inches to the interior for anti-siphon/antifreeze function) would be through cutting/patching of the ceiling in our finished basement.  However, Kelly Chapman did have internal parts in his truck to match/work and made quick work removing the internal parts, replacing an internal washer and reassembling; which solved the dripping in the off position (and any potential pipe freeze this winter).  Now that enough time has passed since the repair in September, to monitor the silcock through some freezing weather, the silcock antifreeze function also appears to be working fine. <br /> Kelly Chapman has also performed other previous plumbing services at our house (such as gas piping, toilet/water closet replacements, water valve replacements, etc.) and each time has been prompt, efficient, professional and reasonably priced.  We intend to continue hiring Kelly Chapman for future work, including a pending future master bathroom remodel. <br />"

"He diagnosed quickly and fixed it right away. He recommended getting pm, so we signed up for the service. The cost seemed reasonable. The technician was friendly. We recommend using this company."

"Lanz was the highest of 4 quotes from local plumbers when I was looking to have multiple plumbing jobs completed, including the purchase and installation of a new water heater. I went with Lanz on the water heater only because they were quick to respond and were able to install it 2 days after my request. The Lanz rep, Ken, was very professional. On installation day, he had a younger guy helping him who seemed to struggle quite a bit and scratched up some furniture while bringing the new water heater in. He also left a large pipe in the yard that I had to dispose of. I chose to go with the least expensive water heater and still paid $1439.21 with Lanz. Others were significantly lower in price, but definitely not as quick to respond or schedule."

"I would use them again in the future."

"Our AC had made noises so we called Blackies! Service technician came next morning.  He checked for problems and finding now asked if wanted a normal service call.  Very professional.  Also came back to replace filters.  He also explained service agreement available. <br />"

"They were friendly, prompt and they did a good work."

"Overall my impressions are mixed. I had them come to my house for two small jobs. They did a great job painting the trim around the door but it seemed to take longer than necessary (and billed by the hour). When repairing the ceiling, the man doing the work was dissatisfied with his initial job and came back two days later to redo the job. I was glad to see such pride in his work, but again, they were billing hourly and the job ended up costing just under double the initial estimate. I understand that estimates are just that, but all in all they were a little more expensive than I anticipated and were very casual. <br />"
