Sewer Rodding & Hydro-Jetting

Professional Sewer Rodding Services for Lake Forest and Lake Bluff

Backed-up sewers are not just inconvenient—they can pose serious health risks to your family or business. Whether the problem stems from accumulated debris, invasive tree roots, or another obstruction, VJ Killian Plumbing & Sewer offers expert sewer rodding services to restore the functionality of your sewer system.

What is Sewer Rodding?

Sewer rodding is one of the most effective methods for clearing backed-up sewers and drains. Using advanced video inspections, our technicians identify the source of the blockage. Then, with specialized tools like flexible rods, blades, and high-pressure water, we slice and blast through obstructions to get your system flowing again.

From tree roots and garbage disposal waste to grease buildup and improperly flushed items, our Lake Forest and Lake Bluff sewer rodding experts remove blockages safely and efficiently—without damaging your property.

Our Sewer Rodding Process

Our sewer rodding process is designed to tackle even the toughest blockages:

  • Inspection: We use sewer cameras to locate and identify the source of the blockage.

  • Rodding: Flexible rods are guided into the pipe or drain to remove obstructions.

  • Comprehensive Cleaning: We rod from the house all the way to the city main to ensure the line is fully clear.

  • Root Control: Specialized cutters keep tree roots at bay to prevent future issues.

  • Condition Report: We provide a detailed report on the overall health of your sewer line.

Do You Need Sewer Rodding?

Common signs you may need sewer rodding include:

  • Water backing up in sinks, toilets, showers, or bathtubs.

  • Slow-draining pipes or standing water.

  • Dark water or sewage smells coming from drains.

  • Persistent clogs or gurgling sounds in your plumbing.

Tree roots growing into sewer lines are a frequent problem in Lake Forest and Lake Bluff, causing blockages that require professional attention. If you notice any of these issues, don’t wait—call us immediately to prevent further damage or health hazards.
