Frequently asked questions
Who owns the sewer lateral?
In most DuPage towns the homeowner is responsible for the lateral from the house to the public main. Check your village's rules.
Is a camera inspection worth it?
Yes for recurring problems or home purchases — it shows exactly what and where the problem is before you pay for a repair.
What's trenchless lining?
A resin-soaked liner is pulled into the old pipe and cured, creating a new pipe inside the old one without a long trench.
Does Illinois require a licensed plumber?
Yes. Plumbing work in Illinois must be done by a plumber licensed by the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Why did my floor drain back up during a storm?
It may be the public system surcharging, not your line. Backflow valves or overhead sewers address that.
Is your referral service free?
Yes. There's no cost and no obligation.
