Wrigleyville is defined by one building above all others — Wrigley Field, the ivy-covered, 1914-vintage ballpark at Clark and Addison that has given the neighborhood its name, its character, and its reputation as one of Chicago’s liveliest destinations on game days. The residential streets around the park are lined with older apartment buildings and two-flats from the 1920s and ’30s, and the Clark Street commercial corridor is dense with bars, restaurants, and businesses that do a brisk trade whenever the Cubs are in town — and honestly, when they’re not.
For Wrigleyville’s commercial establishments, commercial drain cleaning and grease trap service is a practical necessity — high-volume operations put real demands on floor drains and main lines. For the residential buildings, older cast iron drain stacks and clay sewer laterals beneath the neighborhood’s trees are typical findings in a sewer camera inspection. The Scottish Plumber handles both: commercial plumbing service for the Clark Street corridor, and full residential service — trenchless repair, repiping, water heaters — for the homes behind the action.
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.
