Fuller Park

Fuller Park is a small, South Side neighborhood near 43rd and Princeton — one of Chicago’s more overlooked communities, but one whose older housing stock carries real history and real plumbing needs. The two-flats and cottages in the area date largely from the early 1900s, built during a period when Chicago was expanding rapidly and building to last. They’ve largely done that. The plumbing systems inside many of them, however, have been doing rather more than their share of lasting.


Lead supply lines, galvanized steel pipes so corroded they’ve narrowed to a trickle, cast iron drains with decades of buildup, and clay sewer laterals that tree roots have treated as a long-term home — these are standard findings in Fuller Park’s older homes. The Scottish Plumber approaches each one honestly: a sewer video inspection first, a clear explanation of what we found, and then the appropriate fix — drain cleaning, trenchless repair, lead pipe removal, or water heater replacement.


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.
