Drain pipe repair that addresses the root cause, not just the symptom. We camera-inspect, identify the failure point, and repair or replace the damaged section for lasting results.

Storm Drain Cleaning

Preventive storm drain cleaning that protects your property from water damage during heavy rainfall. We remove leaves, silt, and debris that block drainage and cause pooling and flooding.

24/7 emergency drain clearing and repair when you cannot wait until morning. Our crews carry everything needed to clear blockages, stop overflows, and restore drainage immediately.

Sewer Line Repair

Expert sewer pipe repair using proven techniques for every pipe material. We fix cracked, corroded, and root-damaged sewer lines with minimal property disruption and lasting results.

Hydro Jetting

High-pressure hydro jetting at up to 4,000 PSI scours pipe walls clean of grease, roots, scale, and mineral deposits. The most thorough pipe cleaning method available for residential and commercial lines.

Sewer Backup

Emergency sewer backup response to stop sewage overflow, clear the blockage, and clean up affected areas. We respond 24/7 to protect your property and your health.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Advanced trenchless pipe repair using cured-in-place lining or pipe bursting methods. We fix your sewer line in hours instead of days, with minimal disruption to your property.

Sewer Line Relining

Cured-in-place pipe lining creates a seamless new pipe inside your existing damaged sewer line. No excavation required — just a smooth, jointless liner that lasts 50+ years.

Drain Snake Service

Commercial drain snaking for residential and commercial properties. Our motorized cable machines clear roots, grease, and debris from drain lines up to 100 feet or more from the access point.

Sewer Camera Inspection

High-definition sewer camera inspection that shows you exactly what is happening inside your pipes. We locate cracks, roots, offsets, bellies, and blockages without any digging.

Grease Trap Cleaning

Scheduled grease trap cleaning and emergency service for restaurants and food service operations. We pump, clean, and inspect your grease trap to prevent backups and maintain code compliance.

Commercial Drain Cleaning

Professional drain maintenance for commercial properties of all sizes. From restaurant grease lines to warehouse floor drains, we keep your business draining properly with scheduled and emergency service.

Clogged Drain Repair

Professional clog removal using drain snakes, augers, and hydro jetting. We clear tough blockages that store-bought cleaners and home remedies cannot touch, then verify clear flow with camera inspection.

Sewer Cleanout

We install and service sewer cleanouts to provide direct access to your main drain line. Essential for properties without existing cleanout access, older homes, and properties with recurring issues.

Sewer Line Replacement

Full sewer lateral replacement using traditional excavation or trenchless pipe bursting. We remove old clay, cast iron, or Orangeburg pipe and install modern materials designed to last 50+ years.

Drain Cleaning

Expert drain clearing for every type of clog. Our technicians diagnose the blockage location and severity, then use the most effective cleaning method to restore full drainage flow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most frequently asked sewer and drain questions from Palos Heights property owners.

How much does sewer line repair cost in Palos Heights, IL?

Sewer line repair costs in Palos Heights typically range from $1,500 to $5,000 for standard residential repairs and $5,000 to $15,000 or more for full replacements. Factors include pipe material, depth, length of damaged section, and whether trenchless methods can be used. We provide free camera inspections with detailed, written estimates before any work begins.

What is hydro jetting and when is it needed in Palos Heights?

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water — up to 4,000 PSI — to scour pipe walls clean, removing grease, scale, tree roots, and mineral deposits. It is recommended for Palos Heights properties with recurring clogs, heavy grease buildup, or sewer lines blocked by roots. It is the most effective way to restore full flow to your pipes.

Does homeowners insurance cover sewer line repair in Palos Heights, IL?

Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Palos Heights do not cover sewer line repair due to normal wear and aging. However, sudden damage from events like tree root intrusion or ground shifting may be partially covered. Some carriers offer sewer line endorsements. We help Palos Heights homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.

Do you offer preventive sewer maintenance in Palos Heights, IL?

Yes. Scranton Sewer Authority offers preventive sewer and drain maintenance programs for Palos Heights property owners including scheduled line cleaning, annual camera inspections, and grease trap service for commercial kitchens. Preventive maintenance catches developing problems early and extends the life of your sewer system significantly.

How do you diagnose sewer problems in Palos Heights without digging?

We use a specialized waterproof camera that is inserted into your sewer line through a cleanout. The camera transmits real-time video that shows us the exact location and nature of any blockage, crack, offset joint, or root intrusion. This lets us recommend the most cost-effective repair for your Palos Heights property without any excavation.

How long does a drain cleaning take in Palos Heights?

Most residential drain cleaning jobs in Palos Heights, IL take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the severity of the clog and the number of drains affected. Main sewer line cleaning may take longer. Our crews arrive with professional-grade snaking equipment and hydro jetting capability to handle any blockage quickly.
