Rapid response, accurate camera diagnostics, and the right repair method are not optional in Shorewood — they are essential.

Here is what sets Scranton Sewer Authority apart from other sewer and drain companies in Shorewood.
Our hydro jetting equipment delivers up to 4,000 PSI of water pressure to scour pipe walls clean — removing roots, grease, scale, and years of buildup that snaking alone cannot clear.

We use high-definition sewer cameras to see inside your pipes in real time. Accurate diagnosis means the right repair the first time — no guesswork, no unnecessary excavation, no wasted money.
Our trenchless pipe lining and bursting methods fix damaged sewer lines without destroying your yard, driveway, or landscaping. Faster installation, less disruption, and results that last decades.
We include a complimentary sewer camera inspection with every major service call. You see exactly what is happening inside your pipes and make informed decisions based on real footage.
Have questions about sewer or drain service in Shorewood? We have answers.
Absolutely. Tree root intrusion is one of the most common causes of sewer line damage in Shorewood, 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.
Common warning signs for Shorewood homeowners include multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, sewage odors in the yard or basement, soggy patches in the lawn, and recurring drain backups. If you notice any of these, call us for a sewer camera inspection to diagnose the problem before it becomes a costly emergency.
Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Shorewood do not cover sewer line repair due to normal wear and aging. However, sudden damage from events like tree root intrusion or ground shifting may be partially covered. Some carriers offer sewer line endorsements. We help Shorewood homeowners understand their coverage and provide documentation for claims that do apply.
We recommend a sewer camera inspection every 2 to 3 years for Shorewood properties, or immediately if you notice warning signs like slow drains or sewage odors. Older homes in Shorewood with clay or cast iron pipes should be inspected more frequently. Regular inspection catches small problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Recurring clogs in Shorewood 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.
Most residential drain cleaning jobs in Shorewood, IL take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the severity of the clog and the number of drains affected. Main sewer line cleaning may take longer. Our crews arrive with professional-grade snaking equipment and hydro jetting capability to handle any blockage quickly.
Honest feedback from property owners who trusted Scranton Sewer Authority with their sewer and drain projects.
"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."
"Had multiple drains backing up at the same time. Turned out to be a collapsed section of our sewer line. They found it with the camera, gave us options including trenchless repair, and had it fixed within two days."
"Toilet was overflowing and nothing we tried would fix it. The technician discovered the problem was actually a clog in the main sewer line, not the toilet. He had it cleared in less than an hour. Knowledgeable crew."
