Deerfield sits in the northern tier of Lake County, a well-established suburb of tree-lined streets, quality schools, and homes that range from mid-century ranch houses to more substantial North Shore residences built in earlier eras. The older sections of Deerfield — particularly those near downtown and along the Metra North Central Line — have housing stock from the 1920s through the ’50s where galvanized supply lines and cast iron drain stacks are still doing their best to hold things together.
The Scottish Plumber works throughout Deerfield, bringing the same precise, no-shortcuts approach we apply everywhere in the region. We conduct sewer video inspections for homes with recurring drainage issues or as part of a pre-purchase evaluation, handle professional drain cleaning and sewer repairs, and carry out pipe replacement when galvanized lines have finally run their course. We also install and service sump pumps with battery backup — Lake County’s water table doesn’t leave much margin for error.
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.
