Ingleside

Ingleside is a Lake County community in the Chain O’Lakes region — a place where the recreational character of the area shapes daily life, and where the combination of a high water table, lake proximity, and clay-heavy soils makes a well-functioning sump pump system less of a luxury and more of a prerequisite for a dry basement. Homes here range from older cottages and year-round residences that started life as summer properties to newer construction in surrounding subdivisions, with plumbing profiles that vary accordingly.


The Scottish Plumber serves Ingleside with particular attention to the water management challenges common to Chain O’Lakes communities. We install and service sump pumps with battery and water-powered backup systems, carry out flood control solutions for properties prone to basement water intrusion, and handle sewer camera inspections and drain cleaning for homes with older laterals. We also replace water heaters and service aging supply and drain lines throughout the area.


When you call us about a backed-up or slow sewer, our first move is to rod and clear the line — get things flowing and your home back to normal. Sewer rodding starts at just $99 when there’s an outside cleanout to rod from, a price we’ve held since we opened in 2006. While nearly everything else has gotten more expensive, our starting price hasn’t moved in nearly twenty years. Once the line is open, we follow up with a sewer video inspection to see exactly what caused the problem — tree roots, a crack, a pipe belly — and give you an honest picture of what, if anything, needs to happen next.


We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year — including holidays — so when something goes wrong at 2 a.m., you can reach us. We offer free estimates during regular business hours with no trip charge to come out. Most companies charge just to show up; we don’t. When a sewer line needs more than rodding, The Scottish Plumber is one of the most experienced trenchless sewer repair companies in Chicagoland — doing this since 2006 with thousands of repairs completed across the area. For older homes especially, pipe stent repair is worth knowing about: a precise, minimally invasive fix that spares your floors, walls, and landscaping.
