West Loop

The West Loop has undergone one of the most dramatic transformations of any Chicago neighborhood in recent memory — from meatpacking district and produce warehouses to the city’s hottest restaurant corridor and a tech hub that includes Google’s Chicago headquarters. Randolph Street and the Fulton Market District are now among the most concentrated collections of serious restaurants in the country, and the residential population has grown to match with luxury condos and renovated loft buildings filling in around the commercial core.


For West Loop’s restaurants — and there are a great many of them — commercial drain cleaning and grease trap service is a non-negotiable ongoing requirement. These are high-volume kitchens with demanding grease loads, and the consequences of a blocked floor drain on a Friday night are not minor. The Scottish Plumber handles commercial plumbing service throughout the Fulton Market corridor, alongside residential work for loft buildings and condos: sewer camera inspection, sewer repair, water heater service, and fixture work throughout the neighborhood.


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.
