Broadview is a compact, hardworking west suburb where mid-century bungalows and two-flats line quiet streets just off the Eisenhower Expressway corridor. Like many Cook County communities built in the post-war era, the homes here were constructed quickly and practically — and a fair portion of the plumbing installed at that time has now been earning its retirement for a while. Galvanized steel supply lines, cast iron drains, and water heaters that date back to when gasoline cost pocket change are all common findings on service calls in Broadview.
The Scottish Plumber starts every job with an honest look at what’s actually going on. A sewer camera inspection tells us what’s happening beneath the slab before we recommend anything. When drains are sluggish or sewer lines are showing their age, our drain cleaning and rodding team clears blockages thoroughly. For lines with structural damage, we offer trenchless sewer repair that avoids tearing up your yard. We also handle water heater replacement and sump pump installation for basements prone to taking on water during heavy rains.
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.
