Hydro Jetting Services for Drain and Sewer Lines

Hydro jetting is one of the most effective methods for cleaning drain and sewer lines. Unlike snaking or chemical cleaners, hydro jetting uses high pressure water to fully remove grease, sludge, roots, and buildup from the inside walls of the pipe. This restores full pipe diameter and improves long term drainage performance. We provide professional hydro jetting services for residential and commercial properties as a safe and effective solution for severe clogs and recurring drain problems.

What Is Hydro Jetting

Hydro jetting is a drain cleaning process that uses specialized equipment to deliver controlled high pressure water through a sewer or drain line. The water scours the interior of the pipe, removing years of buildup rather than just punching a hole through a blockage. This method cleans the pipe wall to wall, which helps prevent future clogs and backups.

Problems Hydro Jetting Can Solve

  • Grease and fat buildup in kitchen drain lines
  • Tree root intrusion in sewer pipes
  • Sludge and scale buildup
  • Recurring clogs that return after snaking
  • Slow draining fixtures throughout the home
  • Commercial drain blockages

Hydro Jetting vs Traditional Drain Snaking

Drain snaking is designed to break through a blockage, but it often leaves residue behind. That residue allows grease and debris to quickly build back up. Hydro jetting completely cleans the interior of the pipe, not just the immediate clog. This is why hydro jetting is recommended for recurring drain issues and main sewer line problems.

Hydro Jetting for Residential Homes

For residential properties, hydro jetting is commonly used on main sewer lines, kitchen drains, laundry lines, and branch drains with heavy buildup. It is especially effective in older homes with cast iron or clay piping where scale and residue reduce pipe capacity. Before hydro jetting, a sewer camera inspection is often performed to confirm pipe condition and ensure the line is suitable for high pressure cleaning.

Hydro Jetting for Commercial Properties

Commercial kitchens, restaurants, apartment buildings, and retail properties often require hydro jetting to manage grease, food waste, and high usage drain systems. Routine hydro jetting helps prevent emergency backups and costly downtime.

Is Hydro Jetting Safe for My Pipes

When performed correctly, hydro jetting is safe for most drain and sewer systems. Water pressure is adjusted based on pipe material, age, and condition. If pipes are severely deteriorated or collapsed, alternative repair options may be recommended. This is why proper inspection and professional operation are critical.

When Hydro Jetting Is Not Enough

If a sewer line is cracked, collapsed, or heavily offset, cleaning alone may not resolve the issue. In these cases, hydro jetting may be combined with sewer camera inspections, trenchless sewer lining, or drain repipe solutions. Our goal is to provide the right solution, not just a temporary fix.

Hydro Jetting Cost Considerations

The cost of hydro jetting depends on pipe length, diameter, severity of buildup, access points, and whether a camera inspection is required. While hydro jetting may cost more upfront than basic snaking, it often saves money by reducing repeat service calls and emergency backups.
