Des Plaines Service Area Map

Using this page to find the right Des Plaines service

Pick the card that matches what you are seeing at home: water on the basement floor points to the sump pump or drain cleaning pages, a cold house points to furnace or boiler repair, and no hot water points to water heater repair. Each Des Plaines page explains the common causes we find in local homes, what the technician checks first and what to have ready when you call 847-550-3322.

If your house has a basement floor drain, an overhead sewer or a sump pit, note which one is involved. If you are not sure which page fits, call and describe the symptom; we will help you pick the right service.

How to use this map

This page lists every Des Plaines page in one place: local service pages, the Des Plaines service-area page and related guides. Pick the service that matches your problem, or start with the service-area page for an overview.

Des Plaines has a wide mix of housing, from postwar ranches and split-levels to newer townhomes and commercial buildings along the main corridors. Many homes have forced-air furnaces, central air, sump pits and basement floor drains, and some older homes still run on hot water boilers.

When to call

Call 847-550-3322 for no heat, a furnace that short-cycles, an air conditioner that runs without cooling, a leaking water heater, a sump pump that runs constantly or not at all, or a backed-up drain. If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas utility or 911 from outside first.

Our shop is on Rand Road in Des Plaines. When you call, we will ask what you are seeing and where the equipment is, so the technician can arrive prepared.

Common problems in Des Plaines homes

Many calls in Des Plaines come from basements. Sump pumps that run constantly, stick or fail during heavy rain are common, and so are floor drains that back up when the main sewer line is partly blocked by roots or buildup. A battery backup pump and a check of the discharge line can prevent a lot of trouble.

In the heating season, furnaces that short-cycle, ignite and then shut down, or blow cool air are frequent calls. A clogged filter, dirty flame sensor or blocked condensate drain is often involved, but a technician should confirm the cause. Water heaters that leak, make popping noises or run out of hot water quickly are another common reason homeowners call.

Our shop is local, so we know the mix of older and newer homes across town.
