How We Handle Drain Repair in Mundelein, IL
Every Mundelein drain job our McHenry plumber crews take on starts with a camera, not a guess. We watch the footage with you and mark the exact depth and distance of the problem. Around Mundelein, the usual suspects are predictable. Homes built from the 1950s through the 1970s often still have cast iron under the slab and clay tile laterals out to the street. Cast iron rusts from the inside until the bottom of the pipe flakes away. Clay joints pull apart as heavy Lake County soil shifts through each freeze and thaw, and tree roots find those gaps fast. Newer homes have a different issue: PVC lines that settle into a belly.
You get a written, flat-rate price for every option before any work starts. If the damage is localized, a single cracked section is usually a one-day fix. For longer, broken runs, trenchless pipe lining seals the old line from the inside without tearing up your lawn or finished basement.
When Drain Replacement Is the Smarter Call
Sometimes a temporary patch only buys you a few months. If a camera inspection shows cast iron pipe scaled thin end to end, or root intrusion at every clay joint, full drain replacement costs less over time than constant repeat repairs. We install new PVC drain lines, run a water test to verify proper flow, and put the camera back down the line so you can inspect the finished work yourself.
