Magnificent Mile

The Magnificent Mile is Chicago’s showcase — the stretch of Michigan Avenue running from the Chicago River to Oak Street, lined with flagship retailers, luxury hotels, high-rise condominiums, and landmarks like the Tribune Tower and the Wrigley Building. It is, by any measure, impressive. What happens in the mechanical rooms, drain lines, and utility corridors of these buildings is less glamorous but equally important to keep things running smoothly at this address.


The Scottish Plumber handles commercial and high-rise plumbing along the Michigan Avenue corridor with the professionalism these properties require. We provide commercial drain cleaning and hydro-jetting for restaurant and hotel kitchens, sewer camera inspections for buildings whose original infrastructure predates the skyscrapers built above them, commercial water heater service, and sewer repair with minimal disruption to building operations. For high-rise residential units above the retail floors, we handle everything from a dripping faucet to a full bathroom renovation rough-in.


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.
