About Home Service Plumbing
Plumbing Service in Harwood Heights
Mike Kowalski runs Home Service Plumbing from its base at 4338 North Newland in Harwood Heights, serving homes and properties throughout Harwood Heights, Norridge, and nearby Park Ridge. As an owner-operated business rooted in the community, the focus stays on direct response to the plumbing demands created by the older housing stock common in Cook County neighborhoods, where decades-old supply lines and drain systems often need targeted repairs rather than full replacement.
The humid continental climate brings distinct seasonal pressures: cold winters frequently lead to frozen or burst lines in uninsulated crawl spaces and basements, while hot summers increase demand on water heaters and increase the chance of leaks in older joints. Mike Kowalski applies this local knowledge on every call, inspecting for terrain-related issues like shifting soil around foundations near Ridgeland Commons or the Harwood Heights Village Hall area that can stress underground piping.
- Owner Mike Kowalski handles calls directly from the Harwood Heights shop
- Hours kept to Mon–Fri 8am–6pm and Sat 9am–2pm for reliable access
- Work adapted to the realities of Cook County homes and the area's freeze-thaw cycles
- Service covers Harwood Heights, Norridge, and adjacent Chicago neighborhoods without subcontracting

What Harwood Heights, IL Customers Say
“Roots had clogged the main drain line under my house on 72nd Court. Home Service Plumbing ran a camera inspection, then hydro-jetted the line clear from the cleanout at the street, restoring flow to every fixture without digging up the yard.”
“The water heater on the lower level had stopped producing hot water and was leaking from the bottom. They removed the old 40-gallon unit, installed a new one in its place, and reconnected the gas line and vents so showers stay hot again.”
“A copper supply pipe burst inside the wall behind the kitchen sink on Canfield Avenue. The plumber opened the wall, cut out the damaged section, soldered in new pipe, and shut off the water only long enough to finish the repair before restoring service.”
