Frequently Asked Questions
My Chicago home's sewer is backing up. Is this a common issue, and how do you handle it?
Yes, sewer backups are a frequent problem in many Chicago neighborhoods due to aging clay sewer lines, tree root intrusion, and seasonal ground shifts. At Monarch Plumbing & Drain, we specialize in diagnosing and resolving these local issues. Our process begins with a thorough sewer camera inspection to pinpoint the exact cause and location of the blockage or damage. We then provide clear options, which may include high-pressure hydro-jetting to clear roots and debris or, if necessary, trenchless sewer repair methods to fix damaged pipes with minimal disruption to your yard and property. Our 24/7 emergency service means we can respond quickly to prevent further damage to your home.
What does a typical plumbing inspection cover, and why should I get one?
A comprehensive plumbing inspection from Monarch is a proactive way to protect your Chicago home. Our licensed plumbers conduct a detailed assessment of your entire system, including checking for leaks, testing water pressure, inspecting visible pipes for corrosion, examining fixtures, and often using a sewer camera to evaluate the main line's condition. This is especially valuable for older homes in the area. The inspection can identify minor issues—like a worn washer or a slow drain—before they become major emergencies or cause water damage. We provide a clear report of our findings and honest recommendations, helping you plan for maintenance or repairs on your schedule and budget.
Do you handle both plumbing and HVAC services, or should I call separate companies?
We handle both, which is a significant convenience for Chicago homeowners. Monarch Plumbing & Drain is a full-service provider for your home's essential systems. This means one call can address a wide range of needs, from installing a new water heater or repairing a garbage disposal to servicing your furnace before winter or replacing an entire HVAC system. Our technicians are cross-trained in plumbing and HVAC, allowing for efficient, coordinated service. For example, if we're repairing a leak near your furnace, we can also check the HVAC unit's safety and performance. It simplifies scheduling, ensures consistent quality, and often provides a more integrated solution for your home's comfort and efficiency.
