Northbrook

Northbrook is an established and well-regarded north Cook County suburb — a community with a strong local business district along Shermer Road and Willow Road, good schools, and residential neighborhoods that include older homes near the village center as well as the larger properties that line the North Shore Channel and the surrounding green corridors. The older sections of Northbrook carry galvanized supply lines and clay tile sewer laterals with the usual tenure; the newer subdivisions are fielding aging sump systems and water heaters that have put in enough years to earn replacement.


The Scottish Plumber serves all of Northbrook without fuss. We conduct sewer camera inspections to give homeowners accurate information before any repair is recommended, handle drain cleaning and root clearing when that’s what’s needed, and carry out sewer repair and galvanized pipe replacement when the situation calls for it. We also replace aging water heaters, upgrade sump systems with battery backup, and handle all general residential plumbing throughout the village.


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.
