Prospect Heights

Prospect Heights is a northwest Cook County suburb between Wheeling and Mount Prospect with a mix of residential neighborhoods and commercial development that has grown steadily over the past several decades. The housing stock spans from older established sections with mid-century homes to newer subdivisions that are now old enough to see their mechanical systems require attention. Across both eras, the most common service calls involve water heaters past their design life, sump systems running on optimism, and sewer laterals in older sections that have accumulated root intrusion without anyone checking in on them for years.


The Scottish Plumber covers Prospect Heights’ residential plumbing without complication. We conduct sewer camera inspections when recurring drainage issues point to something structural, carry out drain cleaning and sewer repair based on what we actually find, and replace aging galvanized supply lines and water heaters. We also install sump systems with battery backup that keep northwest suburban basements dry when Cook County’s weather has other ideas.


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.
