I called Joe early on a Saturday morning because I had an emergency problem with my bathroom. To my relief, Joe kindly connected me with one of his team members right away. They showed up promptly at my house and handled the situation with the utmost professionalism, efficiency, and courtesy. I was truly impressed with how quickly they responded, especially on a weekend, and how thorough they were in making sure everything was taken care of properly. All I can say is that I highly recommend Joe and his team to my friends and family; they’ve definitely earned my trust!Posted on Michael WilluweitTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Joe came by to take a look at what we thought was a leak from our bathroom, which turned out to be coming from the roof. He was quick to diagnose, super resourceful and personable! We received a roofing recommendation from him as well. We appreciated his willingness to come by on a Saturday and to lend us his expertise! Will be reaching out to him for any future problems!Posted on Jason CressTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I tried to fix a bathroom faucet myself, and it turned out to be a bigger issue that I thought so I needed to get a professional involved. I called Boss Plumbing and they were able to help me diagnose the problem on the phone, then came out the same day to fix it. This took me way too long to take care of so thankfully Joe worked his magic fast! Now I have a happy wife and a sink I can use. Great service!! I have him saved in my phone for next time!!Posted on Jon SlackTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Hopefully wont need him often but this is my new plumber for sure.
Posted on Gary K.Verified Joe was terrific in resolving a few plumbing items in our home. He is transparent, honest, and looks out for customers' best interests. He is an expert, friendly, and extremely responsive.Posted on Scott M.Verified I can't say enough good things about Joe and Boss Plumbing. We've used his services multiple times in the past few years -- he has always given great advice with a true, "no pressure" approach with customers. When we've chosen to use his services, Joe performs high quality work at a fair price. Our most recent issue was an old jetted bathtub that started leaking. As always, he gave us advice for triage and made time to see us right away. He quickly diagnosed the plumbing issue and was able to resolve it, as well as some associated carpentry work, for us in the same day. I wish I could find someone as consistently reliable, trustworthy, and effective in all the other trades. If you have a plumbing service issue, then you NEED to call Joe and Boss Plumbing.Posted on Janice W.Verified Boss plumbing is the only plumber you could ever want! He does such fantastic work and has very reasonable prices. He comes right away and doesn't keep you waiting. There isn't any plumbing job that he can't do! I love his personality. I highly recommend Boss Plumbing!Posted on Steve S.Verified I would like to join the chorus of outstanding reviews for Boss Plumbing. Several years ago, Joe helped us with a major plumbing issue at our Burr Ridge residence. More recently, he has helped with several issues at my mother's home in Naperville. In all cases, the work was done promptly and with excellence. Joe is a great guy, honest, enthusiastic and straightforward. I highly recommend Boss Plumbing. Steve S.Posted on Michael I.Verified Joe was very responsive and helpful over the phone when I called regarding sewer gas backup through our p-trap. He came by as quick as he could, walked me through the problem, explained solutions, and the problem was resolved within 24 hours. He seems to truly care about his work and his customers.Posted on Tari M.Verified I have used Joe a couple of times. He is responsive and so pleasant to deal with. Answers calls ASAP. My water heater was leaking late at night and I left messages with three plumbers - Joe called me immediately and FaceTimed with me to stop the leaking overnight, then he arranged to fit me in between his already scheduled appointments. One of the other plumbers never returned my call and the other didn't respond until the next afternoon - about the time Joe was showing up to fix the problem!Posted on Tatum S.Verified We were having concerns with our water heater. Boss plumping was easy to contact, responsive, and super easy to schedule a time that worked for me. Great value!Posted on Rich W.Verified I had a slight drip in a pipe leading to the water heater. Joe Cohn was able to come by the day after I called. He remedied the situation in a short amount of time and charged a fair price. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a plumber to handle the various situations that homes experience. He is fast, friendly, and honest!Posted on Vanessa K.Verified If you're looking for an honest and reliable plumber, please consider Boss Plumbing. Our water heater broke and I contacted Boss, Joe answered, and fit us into his schedule the same day. He was honest in his opinion that the water heater could be repaired and not replaced. As he doesn't do repair work, he recommended a company that could provide the service we needed. He was also transparent about the pricing for a new unit if we were to replace. Thanks, Joe!Posted on Rebecca B.Verified Joe is our new plumber! He is super trustworthy and dependable! Joe installed a water filter on our main water line, and he did great work!! We will definitely have him return for future plumbing work! Thank you Joe
