Plumber in Arlington Heights, IL
One of the largest suburbs in the northwest — and a huge base of postwar homes now needing plumbing attention.
Arlington Heights is one of the biggest suburbs in the northwest suburbs, and a large share of its housing is postwar: ranches, split-levels and Cape Cods built from the late 1940s through the 1960s during the town’s boom years. Those homes have been updated over the decades, but many still have their original galvanized supply branches, first- or second-generation cast-iron drains, and mechanical rooms where a water heater and a sump pump have been quietly aging.
A house of that age and volume generates a steady stream of the bread-and-butter plumbing problems: pinhole leaks in old supply lines, worn-out shutoff valves that will not close when you need them, running toilets, tired water heaters, kitchen and bath drains that have slowed to a crawl, and sump pumps that should have been replaced two seasons ago.
Arlington Heights also has a real commercial corridor — the revitalized downtown around the Metra station, the Rand Road business strip, and the large Arlington Park redevelopment area — so commercial service and tenant work are part of what we do here alongside the residential calls.

“Several times I have had plumbing needs for both new installation of fixtures for renovations and repairs of broken pipes, including septic, well, main stack and sump pump. In the purchase of my new home there were issues found that needed to be addressed. Not only were they repaired in a timely, professional and affordable manner, they also did everything needed to get permits and as a result all repairs were inspected and approved by our village. Marius is a true lifesaver. When something goes wrong, call Marius and he’ll be there on time and do the job right.”
Plumbing in Arlington Heights: common questions
My mid-century Arlington Heights house has old shutoff valves. Should I be worried?
A shutoff that has not been turned in years often will not fully close, and you find out during an emergency. Replacing tired shutoffs — at fixtures and at the main — is inexpensive insurance we do routinely on homes of this age.
