Kildeer is a low-density Lake County village with the kind of wooded, semi-rural character that draws homeowners who want suburban amenities without sacrificing the feel of the countryside. Homes here sit on larger lots surrounded by mature trees — which are lovely to look at and absolutely committed to finding their way into the sewer laterals running beneath them. In a community like Kildeer, where properties are set back from the road and sewer runs are longer than average, a sewer camera inspection isn’t just useful — it’s often the only reliable way to find out what’s happening underground.
The Scottish Plumber serves Kildeer’s residential properties with the discretion and precision the community requires. We carry out thorough camera inspections, handle drain cleaning and root removal, and offer trenchless repair options that protect established landscaping. We also install sump systems with battery backup appropriate for Lake County’s water table, and service and replace water heaters for homes with higher hot water demand.
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.
