Get matched with top gas piping pros in Lovejoy, IL

"I've hired Maplewood Plumbing multiple times. They are super friendly, easy to schedule and they do good work. However, this last time that they came to my house, I needed them to fix an outdoor garden faucet that was leaking backwards into my basement and to help me get a spoon out of my garbage disposal, which I was completely unable to remove myself (ugh). The technician was great, as usual, but he quoted me $155 to remove the spoon from my disposal. I questioned that, at which point he said that he could give me a total price of $386 for everything. I agreed and he fixed everything (the spoon took about 10 secs for him to remove) and he charged me and left. I started thinking about the cost later that night and it seemed awfully high, but not knowing what went into the pipe fix (one of the pipes was cracked and had to be replaced) I wasn't really informed enough to make that judgement. I wrote and asked for an itemized receipt so that I could weigh the cost of the parts against the cost of the services for future reference and decisions around who to hire for repairs. I was given a blanket receipt that did not itemize the work. I asked for another version, where they could list out the cost of items versus the cost of services and was told: "Because we charge a flat rate per service, not by time and materials, we do not provide itemized invoices. The $386 covers time, materials, and the 6 month warranty included in the service." (Just as a side note, I have always received an itemized bill from them in the past.) So I asked if they could tell me what their flat-rate service charge is - how they arrived at their numbers, because I was quoted two different prices for the garbage disposal and the pipe. I was given the original receipt that just lumped everything together under the one cost. I'm hesitant to hire them again due to the fact that I need more transparency with service providers that I hire. I like to know what I'm paying for parts and what I'm paying for labor. If that is important to you as well, then you might want to look elsewhere. If you don't care about that sort of thing, then I would recommend them because I believe they do quality work."

I bought a big deal for this service, used them once and that was it. It was all good and the staff was friendly.

"Froggy's called me immediately after I submitted my request on Angi. We discussed the problem I was having, and they gave me several ideas to try to get my A/C unit running properly before actually coming to take a look. I ended up taking their suggestions - cleaning the unit and blowing out the drain line - which resolved the issue. I appreciate and respect a company willing to provide a few troubleshooting/DIY tips before being eager to charge a service fee. Will definitely call in the event I need help in the future."

"Were very accommodating about setting appointment at a time convenient for me. Arrived promptly and were very polite. Explained well the process they would be doing and seemed to work very hard to accomplish the objective. Before starting, I was given a couple additional options to add to the items to be cleaned on the original sign-up, for additionall cost, tho I wasn't pressured. Decided to get them. Showed me a "before and after" picture of one of ducts. Job took about 5 hrs, and I have a modest sized house! Only complaint I have is that they brought a rather heavy, bulky machine into house to do the job, and due to having to maneuver in a couple tight areas, the machine did leave some marks on my hard wood floors that I have been trying to remove, with some effort."

"Very reasonable bid, to complete rough in for basement bathroom. Staff were very professional and completed work in a timely manner. Staff went beyond expectations and made valuable suggestions regarding additional improvements to be made by homeowner in the future."

"Plumber came to my house to assess work required and products that I needed to purchase in advance. Kelly Spradley returned twice to complete the job. He was excellent, and I have every intention of requesting him for future plumbing renovations that we have already discussed"

"Came and completed the job same day, a Saturday. They repaired a gas leak in a line under the stove. Job required three strong people to move the stove."

"We joined Angies list because we were having a hard time finding a company that could come out in a emergency. After wading through the list of contractors, trying to find one that was available, we called this company. The on call guy answered right away and was very friendly. He was at our door in about two hours and went right to work. (Pretty impressive for 9 at night on a friday.) He figured out that the main sewer line going to the septic tank was clogged. After about a hour of snaking he was able to unclog the pipe. What was really impressive is how well he protected our home from the nasty mess that came out of the pipe. I definitely recommend this company and will use them again for all of our plumbing needs."
