Welcome to The Main Line
By: Felix Delgadillo, Owner & Founder
Welcome to The Main Line, the official blog of Drain Guys Chicago, a locally owned sewer, drain cleaning, and plumbing company serving the Chicagoland area.
I’m Felix, the founder and owner of Drain Guys Chicago. After years working in the field, I saw firsthand how often homeowners were confused, overcharged, or pressured into unnecessary repairs when dealing with clogged drains and sewer/plumbing problems. That’s exactly why I started this company—and why this blog exists.
Why We Started This Plumbing & Drain Cleaning Blog
Plumbing problems don’t happen on a schedule. When a drain backs up or a sewer line fails, people are stressed and looking for answers NOW. Unfortunately, that’s also when misinformation spreads the most.
The Main Line is here to change that.
In our blogs, we’ll share:
Practical drain cleaning tips from licensed professionals
Common causes of clogged drains and sewer backups
When you need a professional plumber—and when you don’t
What to expect from services like hydro jetting, camera inspections, and trenchless sewer repair
Honest advice from technicians who work in Chicagoland homes every day
No scare tactics. No upselling. Just clear, accurate information.
What “The Main Line” Means in Plumbing
In plumbing, the main line connects everything. When it’s clear, your sinks, toilets, and drains work properly. When it’s clogged or damaged, problems show up fast.
This blog works the same way. It’s the main line for information—helping homeowners understand what’s happening in their plumbing systems and how to make smart decisions before small problems turn into expensive repairs.
