Why FJ Bero?

About FJ Bero - exemplary Plumbing Services
in Elgin, IL since 1920

FJ Bero Historical PictureF.J. Bero and Company is a union plumbing and mechanical contracting company that has been a family-owned business since 1920.

Frank Joseph Bero brought F.J. Bero to Elgin, IL from Chicago and opened his first plumbing shop on Commonwealth Avenue behind the family home in 1920. After Frank’s death, his wife Mary and his sons, John and George continued to grow the company and developed a plumbing service business that became well- known for honesty and integrity in the Fox River Valley.

Upon their retirement in 1980 the third generation of Bero’s, John, took the company into the commercial building and contracting division of the plumbing world, while still catering to the residential service business that his father and uncle worked so hard to create.

The company moved to the industrial space they still occupy on Weld Road in the 1980’s. In 2004 John retired and the fourth generation of F.J Bero plumbers took over, his son Jeff Bero.

F.J. Bero & Company still focuses on service-based integrity and quality workmanship in the commercial and residential plumbing market.

In 2020, we celebrated F.J. Bero’s 100th anniversary.

Water FiltersIn 1920 my great grandfather, Frank Joseph and his wife Mary moved to Elgin from Chicago and opened the first F.J Bero plumbing shop. Since that day the people of Elgin and the surrounding Fox River Valley and all of Northern Illinois have gotten to know the integrity and quality work of the F.J. Bero family and employees. We work hard every day to uphold my great grandfather’s, grandfather’s, and father’s tradition of hard work and excellence for the community. We started with one man and his passion for quality workmanship and have continued that tradition through generations of plumbers, driven to complete each job to the full satisfaction of our customers.

I look forward to helping you with your plumbing, process piping and hydronic heat needs.

Jeff Bero
Owner since 2002

Korin Stocker

I have been a customer for the past 10+ years and have always had exceptional service. Zach was very professional (and honest) which I definitely appreciated. He even returned my call after about 15 mins being finished with the job to assist me even more. Keep up the great work FJ Bero!!

Gilbert Acosta

I had two jobs, kitchen faucet and recirculating pump. Cannot believe what a great job Zach did on both installations. Clean and fast. He not only installed but gave me good info on care. I highly recommend FJ Beto and Zach for any plumbing job. I will definitely call them again.

John Dahlberg

Second time in the last 8 days that we have used the services of F.J. Bero Plumbing. Zach, from Bero was prompt, courteous, knowledgeable and efficient. We have used F.J. Bero Plumbing for years. We find their entire service team to be friendly, professional and skilled in all facets of plumbing. They show up on time and get the job done right the first time - every time! A special thanks to Jeff Bero to making sure our clogged drain issue was addressed before the Christmas Holiday weekend.

I would like to thank Bero Plmg. for returning my 15 year old showers mixing valve back to new. Especially Jeff for researching the parts and Zach for the professional installation. I recommend them wholeheartedly.

Jeff Bero's phone advise/recommendations were spot on. Zachary arrived exactly when we agreed on, and took care of 4 different tasks very efficiently and satisfactorily, in a professional and friendly manner.

We have used Bero's plumbing services for 35 years since our church's regular use to solve their problems. They have always been courteous, prompt and straight forward. Their plumbers have given me many good inside tips too.

Our technician, Zach, arrived right on time, was friendly, knowledgeable, and had our new hot water heater installed in less than two hours. Bero’s has become the “go to” plumbing company in our neighborhood.
