Why Choose Master Pro Plumber

Upfront, flat-rate pricing. No service fee.

There’s no charge to come out and look. Your technician writes the price down before any work starts, so the number you approve is the number on the invoice.

Experienced plumbers who find the real problem

Our plumbers have spent years in the trade, so they find the cause fast. We camera every sewer before and after we rod it, so you can see the difference for yourself.

Neat, clean and on time

We book two-hour arrival windows and text you 30 minutes before we pull up. We lay tarps down and leave your home cleaner than we found it. Neatness is our thing.

Areas We Serve

Des Plaines is home for us. Our shop is at 1539 E Oakton St, and we’ve answered plumbing calls from this city since 1989. From here we cover the North Shore, the northwest suburbs and parts of DuPage County, 24 hours a day.

The Des Plaines River runs right through town, and what lands on our schedule is the basement side of a wet spring: sump pits that can’t keep up, floor drains that push water back up and main lines that surcharge. March snowmelt plus spring rain is the worst stretch, so January and February are the time to have the pump and the main line checked. The city’s Flood Rebate Program may cover some sewer and flood-protection work; ask the city for the current rules before the job starts and we’ll give you the paperwork and photos you need.

Much of Des Plaines was built out after World War II, and many of those homes still have their original clay or cast-iron sewer laterals, with mature parkway trees rooting into the joints. The city buys its Lake Michigan water through the Northwest Water Commission, and it’s moderately hard, so scale builds up in water heaters over time.

“We’ve used Master Pro for our plumbing nightmares 4 times now and they continue to bail me out. One of the times was late in the night on Christmas Eve and they didn’t charge me anything extra. I like the owner, I like the prices, and they’ve got cool shirts.”
