About Me
Hi, I'm Ivan.
One plumber. Every job, start to finish.
I've spent years working inside mechanical rooms, crawlspaces, and finished kitchens across the North Shore — running copper and gas piping, setting water heaters, replacing failing sump systems, and rebuilding plumbing that should have been redone years earlier. I read blueprints before I ever pick up a wrench, and I build every installation to meet code the first time — not patched together to pass inspection.
When you call, you're not routed through a dispatcher or handed off to whoever's available. You're talking to me — the person who shows up, does the work, and stands behind it.
"I install everything the way I'd want it in my own home — done to code, and done to last." — Ivan

Services
Plumbing work, organized the way it actually happens in a home.
From a single leaking faucet to a full re-pipe, every category below is work I handle personally — no subcontractors passed off to do the work.
02
Gas Plumbing
Gas piping isn't a place to guess. I handle leak repairs and new gas lines, pressure-tested and code-compliant.
03
Sump, Ejector & Pump Systems
A failed pump can flood a basement fast. I build replacements to keep water moving where it belongs.
04
Leak Detection & Pipe Repair
Hidden leaks cause the most damage. I find the source and repair it properly — not just the symptom.
05
Kitchen & Bathroom Plumbing
Faucets, sinks, toilets, disposals, and the connections behind them — I install them cleanly and seal them right.
06
New Plumbing & System Replacement
New construction rough-in, or a full replacement of plumbing that's past its service life — I handle both, done right.
What I don't do
To keep every job focused and done right, I don't perform electrical work, HVAC/heating system service, or air conditioning work. If your issue crosses into one of those trades, I'll tell you upfront rather than take on work outside my focus.
How it works
A straightforward process, from first call to finished job.

Frequently Asked
Questions homeowners usually ask.
Do you charge for an estimate or a service call?
There's no charge for a straightforward estimate — I'll look at the issue and give you a clear price before I start. More involved diagnostic work, like tracing a hidden leak, may include a service call fee, which I'll always mention upfront.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — I'm licensed and insured to perform plumbing work in Illinois. I'm glad to share the details when we schedule your job.
How soon can you come out?
For scheduled work, I'll find the next appointment that fits your timeline — evenings and weekends work best. For urgent issues like an active leak or no water, I can often come out the same day, billed at the emergency rate.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. I stand behind every job — if something isn't right after I leave, call me and I'll make it right.
Will the work pass inspection, and do you pull permits when needed?
Yes. I install everything to code, and I pull the proper permits when a job requires one — no shortcuts that could cause problems down the road.
Do you clean up after the job?
Yes — I leave the space the way I found it, or better. No scraps, no mess left behind.
What areas do you serve?
I serve Chicago's North and Northwest suburbs, including Buffalo Grove, Deerfield, Northbrook, Wheeling, Arlington Heights, Glenview, Lincolnshire, Vernon Hills, and Palatine. If you're nearby but not on this list, reach out — I likely still cover your area.
Do you offer emergency service, and how does pricing work?
Yes. Scheduled appointments booked in advance get 10% off. Emergency, same-day visits are also available, billed at a higher standard emergency rate.
How do I pay — what payment methods do you take?
I'll confirm accepted payment methods with you when we schedule the job.
