Evanston's Older Homes Need an Experienced Plumber
Evanston is home to some of the most beautiful historic housing in the Chicago metro — Victorian-era homes near the lakefront, 1920s bungalows, and mid-century apartment buildings near Northwestern University. This architectural richness comes with plumbing infrastructure that, in many cases, has not been updated in decades.
Original clay sewer laterals, cast iron drain stacks, and galvanized water supply lines are common throughout Evanston's older neighborhoods. Root intrusion from mature street trees is a particularly common cause of sewer backups in Evanston. Our technicians know these systems and respond quickly — most Evanston calls see arrival in 40–55 minutes.

What Evanston Residents Say
"We have a 1905 Victorian in Evanston and our sewer had been causing problems for years. Aqua Tech ran the camera and we immediately saw heavy root intrusion. They lined the pipe trenchlessly — it was done in a day, no yard damage. House has been flawless since."
"I manage 8 rental units near Northwestern. Aqua Tech is my exclusive plumber — they respond fast, work clean in occupied units, and charge fairly. I've tried others. Nobody comes close to their professionalism."
"Basement backed up during a heavy rain at 2am. I couldn't believe Aqua Tech answered immediately. Tech was at my Evanston home by 3am and had the drain clear before sunrise. Professionalism at 3am — absolutely exceptional."
