Common questions about sewer and drain services in Markham, IL.
Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Markham, 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.
Yes. Scranton Sewer Authority offers preventive sewer and drain maintenance programs for Markham 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.
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 Markham property without any excavation.
Sewer line repair costs in Markham 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.
Recurring clogs in Markham homes are usually caused by grease buildup inside drain lines, tree root intrusion into sewer pipes, pipe bellies or offsets that trap debris, or undersized plumbing. A sewer camera inspection identifies the root cause so we can fix the real problem, not just clear the symptom temporarily.

Our reputation is built on results. Here is what our customers say.
"Good experience overall. They cleared a stubborn clog in our shower drain that two other companies could not fix. Turned out to be a buildup of calcium and soap scum deep in the pipe. Hydro jetting solved it."
"Our kitchen drain had been slow for weeks. The technician used a camera to find a grease buildup about 30 feet down the line, then hydro jetted the whole thing. Drains faster than it has in years. Great service."
"This company has been maintaining our apartment building drains for over two years. They clean every unit drain and the main lines on a quarterly schedule. Tenant complaints have dropped to nearly zero since we hired them."
