About US
Our Family At Your Service!
J. Blanton Plumbing was founded in 1993 by Jack Sr. and Jack Jr. with these main goals in mind: helping Chicagoland families solve their plumbing problems while providing 5-star service. We are a family owned and operated business, passionate about not only our personal success, but about the success of the plumbing industry as a whole.
For the last three generations, almost everyone in our family has chosen a career in the plumbing industry; not just those of us here at J. Blanton, but all over our family tree. We have real pride and passion for what we do.
It troubles us to learn that skilled trades are seeing a decline in recruitment and that fewer people are choosing to become plumbers and electricians. That’s why a huge part of what we do everyday is focused on keeping the trade alive.

Frequently Asked Questions About Plumbing
A few recommended topics for you
Damages to your main sewer line can happen due to many culprits such as roots, debris buildup and other obstructions from foreign and non-flushable objects. These can cause clogging blockage and damage to your sewer line.
You will usually be able to tell that your sewer line is damaged if you find backup water in drains overflowing toilets, strange sounds, or overflows from your tub.
If you suspect your sewer line is damaged, don’t wait for the problem to worsen. Call J. Blanton in Chicago right away to resolve your main sewer line problem as quickly and safely as possible.
Your plumbing system may experience serious issues if the sewage lines in your Chicago house get clogged. It may result in backed-up wastewater or slow drains.
A plumber from J. Blanton will perform a sewage rodding service to unclog the obstruction and have the sewer lines flowing freely. Sewer rodding is occasionally the sole method for removing some difficult clogs.
If sewer rodding does not improve your water flow, it will be time to request sewer drain repair.
A device for draining water, a sump pump, is located at the lowest point of your house. It is designed to drain any emergency flooding water from your house to prevent water damage.
In both home and business settings, sump pumps are used to prevent floods and water buildup on your property. Even if your basement is not prone to flooding, a sump pump may be useful if there is too much moisture near the foundation of your house.
Call J. Blanton if you’re considering installing, replacing, or repairing a sump pump!
