Professional sewer lateral installation with proper slope, bedding, and municipal tie-in. We handle permits, excavation, pipe laying, inspection, and site restoration from start to finish.

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.

Trenchless Sewer Repair

Trenchless sewer repair fixes damaged pipes without excavation. We use CIPP lining or pipe bursting to rehabilitate your sewer line while preserving your yard, driveway, and landscaping.

Storm Drain Cleaning

Storm drain cleaning and maintenance to prevent flooding, standing water, and property damage during heavy rain. We clear debris, silt, and buildup from storm drain systems of all sizes.

Hydro Jetting

Professional hydro jetting that removes everything from your pipe walls — tree roots, hardened grease, calcium buildup, and years of accumulated debris. Restores full pipe capacity in a single visit.

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.

Sewer Line Relining

Professional CIPP relining to rehabilitate cracked, root-damaged, and leaking sewer lines from the inside. The epoxy-saturated liner cures in place and restores structural integrity without digging.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Can tree roots damage my sewer line in Palatine?

Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Palatine, IL. Roots seek out moisture and can penetrate tiny cracks or joints in sewer pipes, eventually causing blockages and pipe collapse. Our crews remove roots with hydro jetting and can reline pipes to prevent future intrusion.

Does homeowners insurance cover sewer line repair in Palatine, IL?

Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Palatine 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 Palatine homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.

Do you handle both residential and commercial drain cleaning in Palatine?

Yes. Our Palatine, IL teams are equipped for drain cleaning at any scale — from residential kitchen and bathroom drains to commercial restaurant grease lines, multi-unit buildings, and industrial facilities. We carry equipment rated for pipes from 1.5 inches to 12 inches in diameter.

What is trenchless sewer repair and is it available in Palatine?

Trenchless sewer repair uses pipe lining or pipe bursting technology to fix damaged sewer lines without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. It is faster, less disruptive, and often costs less than traditional excavation. Our Palatine crews perform trenchless repairs when site conditions allow — saving you time, money, and landscaping restoration costs.

How long does a drain cleaning take in Palatine?

Most residential drain cleaning jobs in Palatine, 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.

How much does sewer line repair cost in Palatine, IL?

Sewer line repair costs in Palatine 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.
