Morgan Park

Morgan Park is Beverly’s slightly quieter neighbor — sharing the same wooded, hilly character and the same Ridge Avenue spine, but with its own distinct identity and an equally impressive collection of Victorian and Craftsman-era homes. The streets here rise and fall in ways that genuinely surprise visitors expecting flat Chicago, and the houses along them — many built in the late 1800s and early 1900s — are among the most architecturally varied in the city. It’s the kind of neighborhood that earns genuine affection from anyone who spends time in it.


Those beautiful older homes carry plumbing that reflects their age. Lead supply lines in the oldest properties, galvanized steel in those updated through the mid-20th century, cast iron drain stacks serving multiple stories, and clay sewer laterals that Morgan Park’s extraordinary tree canopy has been infiltrating for decades. The Scottish Plumber handles historic homes with care: a thorough sewer camera inspection first, then the appropriate fix — drain cleaning, a trenchless liner, 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.
