How We Started in Arlington Heights
We shut off the water, protect the floor, and open the wall only where we need to. Every repair gets tested with a pressure gauge before we pack up. You see the reading and the invoice before we leave.
Five Star Plumber LLC started with one truck and a simple plan: answer the phone, show up when we say we will, and fix the problem the first time. That was the whole business model. We are a family-owned plumbing Arlington Heights IL company, and we still run it the same way. Our first calls came from homeowners near downtown Arlington Heights dealing with frozen pipes in older homes and water heaters that quit on the coldest nights. Word spread because we returned calls and cleaned up after ourselves.
Today we run a full crew of journeyman and master plumbers out of Arlington Heights, covering 60005 and 60004 and the surrounding Cook County neighborhoods. We handle residential and commercial work, from a clogged drain in a Scarsdale kitchen to a sewer line replacement under a restaurant on Northwest Highway. If you want the full story about our plumbing company in Arlington Heights IL, it is this: we built the business one repaired pipe at a time, and we still answer the phone ourselves.

What We Stand For
Our mission is to leave every Arlington Heights home with working plumbing and a clear explanation of what went wrong. That means we diagnose before we quote, we quote before we start, and we do not sell you a sewer line replacement when a hydro jetter and a camera inspection will solve the problem. As a local plumber Arlington Heights homeowners call back, we measure success by repeat customers and referrals, not by the size of the invoice. You get honest options, code-correct work, and a dry floor when we leave.
How We Work
Four rules guide every call we take in Arlington Heights, whether it is a 2 a.m. burst pipe or a scheduled water heater installation. They are not slogans.
Diagnose First
We run a camera or a pressure gauge before we recommend anything.
Quote Before Work
You get a price before we pick up a pipe wrench. If we open a wall and find something we did not expect, we stop and talk to you before the number changes.
Clean Job Site
We lay drop cloths, wear shoe covers, and haul away old fixtures. When we finish a toilet repair or a water heater installation, the area looks better than when we arrived.
Code-Correct Work
We pull permits when the job requires one and build to the Illinois Plumbing License code. That means proper venting, correct PEX crimping, and backflow prevention testing done by a certified tester.
The People Behind the Wrench
Our crew is made up of journeyman and master plumbers who live in and around Arlington Heights. Several of our technicians grew up here, and a few learned the trade working on the same older homes they now service. We hold an Illinois Plumbing License and keep current on Backflow Prevention Assembly Tester Certification and EPA Lead-Safe Certification. On any given day you will find our trucks stocked with RIDGID drain snakes, Milwaukee presses, and Rheem and Navien water heaters, so we can finish most repairs in one visit. We train our apprentices on real job sites, not just in a classroom, and we expect every technician to explain the work in plain language before they start.

One truck, one call, and the whole job handled. We cover everything from a running toilet to a full sewer line replacement, and we stock the parts that matter: copper pipe, PEX tubing, PVC pipe, supply lines, and shut-off valves.

Burst pipe, sewer backup, or gas smell at midnight? We run emergency calls across Arlington Heights with a stocked truck and shut the problem down fast.
Plumbing Repairs
Dripping faucets, leaking supply lines, and failing shut-off valves are the small repairs that turn into big water damage.
Drain Cleaning
A slow kitchen drain or gurgling shower usually means buildup or root intrusion down the line.
Sewer Line Cleaning
When multiple drains back up at once, the main sewer line is the culprit.
What Arlington Heights Customers Say
Our water heater died on a Friday night and we had family coming Saturday. They answered the phone, gave us a price, and had a new tank in by noon. The tech showed me the old anode rod, which was completely gone. No upsell, just the facts.
Sewer backed up into the laundry room twice in one month. They ran a camera and found roots in the clay tile line. Quoted the replacement, showed me the footage, and had it done in two days. Yard was put back clean. Worth every penny.
Called about low water pressure and a dripping shower valve. The tech tested pressure at every fixture, replaced the regulator, and fixed the valve in one visit. He explained what he was doing the whole time. Fair price, no surprises.
Our restaurant grease line clogs constantly. They hydro jet it after hours so we do not lose a dinner service, and they camera it to prove it is clear. Backflow testing paperwork is always filed on time. Reliable commercial work.
Sump pump quit during a storm and the basement started taking on water. They came out same day, replaced the pump, and added a battery backup. The tech also found a cracked discharge line we did not know about. Solid work.
Toilet was running constantly and the flapper was shot. They replaced the fill valve, flapper, and wax ring, and checked the other toilets while they were here. Quick, clean, and the price matched the quote. Will call again.
