Not every clog is under the floor.

In this commercial building, a 3-inch copper drain line runs horizontally through the ceiling. Our tech set up the machine, went up the ladder, opened the access panel and rodded the line out from above. No cutting into the ceiling, no shutting the building down, and the line is flowing again.

Property managers and business owners: slow drains on upper floors, gurgling or backups in multiple fixtures are signs a horizontal line is clogging up. Rescue Plumbing handles commercial drain cleaning and rodding 24/7 across Chicago and the North Shore, including the West Loop, River North, Gold Coast and Glencoe.

When the yard floods or water backs up after a heavy rain, a clogged catch basin is often the reason.

Leaves, dirt and sludge settle in the basin over time and block the outlet pipe until the water has nowhere to go. On this job our tech opened the basin, rodded out the line and cleaned it out so it drains the way it should before the next storm.

Fall is the best time to get it done, before the leaves pile up and the ground freezes. Rescue Plumbing handles catch basin cleaning, rodding and repair 24/7 across Chicago and the North Shore, including Uptown, West Ridge, Sauganash and Winnetka.

Ever wonder how we know exactly where to dig?

When a sewer line is broken or collapsed, our camera finds the problem from inside the pipe. Then a locator picks up the camera's signal from above ground, and we put a flag right on the spot. That means a smaller hole, less damage to your lawn, and a faster repair.

Sewer smell, slow drains all over the house, or water backing up in the basement? Those are signs your main sewer line needs attention. Rescue Plumbing handles sewer line repair and excavation 24/7 across Chicago and the North Shore, including Avondale, Portage Park, Humboldt Park and Highland Park.

If your bathroom sink takes forever to drain, there's a good chance it looks like this inside.

Hair and soap scum collect in the drain over months until the water barely moves. Drain cleaner usually can't break through a clog like this, and it's rough on your pipes. Our tech took the drain apart, pulled the whole thing out, and the sink drains like new.

Slow sink, tub or shower? Rescue Plumbing is available 24/7 for drain cleaning across Chicago, including Andersonville, Irving Park, Albany Park and Rogers Park.

Still think “flushable” wipes are flushable? 🤢

Our plumber pulled the toilet on this Chicago job and ran a drain cable straight down the line. This is what came out: wad after wad of wipes that never broke down and turned into a full sewer line clog.

🚽 Only flush the 3 P’s: p*e, p**p and (toilet) paper.

This is what "flushable" wipes really do 😬 Our plumber pulled this rope of wipes out of a clogged toilet drain with a drain cable. Wipes don't break down like toilet paper; they twist together and block your sewer line. Only flush toilet paper!

What's under an old Chicago basement floor? 🧱

We took this basement down to the brick, cut a trench along the foundation wall and broke out the slab to reach the underground drain line. That's how you see what shape the old pipes are really in before the new plumbing goes in.
