Fixtures and Home Appliances Repair

What's Included in Our Plumbing Repairs

We handle the full range of residential plumbing repair issues that come up in Cicero homes. This includes toilet repair, water leak repair, faucet leak repairs, and problems with fixtures and home appliances like water heaters, garbage disposals, and washing machine connections.

For water leaks, we don’t just stop the drip—we figure out why it started leaking in the first place. It’s a simple washer replacement, but other times it’s a sign that the fixture itself needs attention or that water pressure issues are causing premature wear.

When it comes to toilet repair, we see everything from running toilets and weak flushes to more difficult issues with the internal mechanisms. Many of our Cicero customers are surprised to learn that toilet problems often have straightforward solutions that don’t require replacing the entire unit. We’ll always tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense or if replacement is the better option.

More difficult issues like water leak repair behind walls or water heater problems can range from $300 to $800.

Whether it’s a burst pipe, major water leak, or a toilet that’s overflowing, we’ll get someone to you as quickly as possible.

Absolutely. Many of our Cicero customers live in homes built in the 1940s-1960s, and we’re very familiar with the plumbing systems from that era. Older homes often have galvanized pipes. The original fixtures and specific configurations require specialized knowledge for proper repairs. We know how to work with these systems and can often repair issues that other plumbers might say require complete replacement. That said, we’ll always be honest about when repairs make sense versus when updating to newer components is the better long-term solution.
Most common plumbing repairs take 1-3 hours to complete. Simple fixes like faucet leak repairs or basic toilet repairs are usually done within an hour. More involved repairs, like water leak repairs that require accessing pipes behind walls or replacing water heater components, can take 2–4 hours. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we assess the problem, and we’ll let you know if we discover anything that might extend the repair time. We work efficiently but don’t cut corners—it’s better to spend an extra 30 minutes doing it right than to have you call us back next week.
Yes, we stand behind our plumbing repair work with a warranty that covers both parts and labor. The specific warranty period depends on the type of repair but typically ranges from 30 days for minor repairs to one year for major component replacements. If something we repaired fails within the warranty period due to our workmanship, we’ll come back and make it right at no charge. The warranty doesn’t cover normal wear and tear or damage from other causes, but it does give you peace of mind that the repair was done properly.
If you’re dealing with a plumbing emergency, the first priority is stopping water damage. Locate your main water shutoff valve and turn it off if water is actively flowing where it shouldn’t be. For toilet overflows, turn off the water supply valve behind the toilet. Move valuables and furniture away from the affected area if possible. Don’t try to fix major leaks yourself—you might make the situation worse or create safety hazards. For insurance, take photos of any damage and stay on the phone with us for urgent issues while our technician is en route.
