Water Softener and Water Filtration Installation in Lake Zurich, IL

Water softener installed next to a water heater by Urban Plumbing

Softer Water, Cleaner Drinking Water, Longer-Lasting Fixtures

Hard water is a fact of life in Lake Zurich and the Northwest Suburbs. It leaves white scale on faucets and shower doors, shortens the life of water heaters and dishwashers, and makes soap work harder. A properly sized water softener solves that, and a filtration system takes care of taste, odor, and sediment at the same time.

Urban Plumbing installs, replaces, and services water softeners, whole-house filtration systems, and under-sink drinking water filters. We size the equipment to your household and water hardness, plumb it in with a bypass so service is simple, and set it up so it runs correctly from day one.

We are a family-operated, licensed and insured plumbing company headquartered at 527 Telser Road in Lake Zurich. Every technician is background-checked and drug-tested.

You get a clear recommendation on softener capacity and filtration type, with no pressure to buy more than you need.

3. Install and Program

The system is plumbed in with shutoffs and a bypass, connected to a drain, and programmed for your hardness and usage.

What Others Are Saying

Ivan S.
Mykola and his team have been my go to plumbers since the day we met!! I’m a local GC in the Chicagoland suburbs and I have been extremely satisfied with their performance on the job sight. Professionals in all aspects of the trade! Very skilled, punctual and always finish on the timeline that is requested. I would not waste my time finding any other plumbing company, give Mykola a call to schedule all of your plumbing needs!
Rick S.
Urban Plumbing team was professional, on time, explained everything they were going to do and answered all my other plumbing questions. Nicholas know his stuff and they were efficient in getting the job done and very affordable pricing. I recommend them and will use them again.
Petro K.
Urban plumbing came to my house and fixed a leaky corroded pipe connected to the exterior faucet. I couldn’t get my previous plumber to fix it and was worried it would start leaking into the house. They came over and fixed it in less than an hour by removing the corroded pipe and replacing with a brass one They were awesome and did a fantastic job! It was very affordable and great customer service! Definitely recommend!
Inna B.
I would highly recommend Urban Plumbing company to anyone in need of their services. From my experience, they have shown themselves to be knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They truly know what they are doing and their work speaks for itself. I confidently give them 5 stars and will definitely be using their services again in the future.
John G.
Nick and his team were there when I needed them. He came well recommended from multiple sources. It’s always good when you ask for referrals and different, unconnected people give you the same contact. Always on time, showed up when he said he would, and has a team to knock large things out and sent someone solo for smaller jobs. We’re using them now, we’ll use them later.
David L.
We had a bathtub / shower water handle situation with hot water coming out at very low pressure, almost a trickle. Contacted Urban Plumbing and sent them pictures of the cartridge and they found a replacement in one day, and replaced it the next business day. Very reasonable price for the labor and highly recommended!
Monica B.
Mykola and his team do great work in a timely manner; very knowledgeable! I have used him multiple times on different projects. This time he helped fix our leaky water spigot outside. He also replaced our main and secondary shutoff valves. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family!
David B.
The old sump pump system in our home stopped working so we called Urban Plumbing. Mykola came out and clearly explained what was happening, what my options were and how he was going to fix it. He was a pleasure to work with and his explanations were easy to understand. Before I knew it the work was complete and the sump pump was running better than ever! I would 100% use Urban Plumbing again!
