How it works
What Hydro Jetting Does to Your Pipes
Hydro jetting uses a stream of high-pressure water to scour the inside of your sewer line. A special nozzle is fed through the pipe, blasting away grease, soap scale, sludge, and even small roots from the pipe walls. It is the deepest clean a sewer line can get without digging it up.
Snaking punches a hole through a clog. Jetting cleans the entire diameter of the pipe. That matters because buildup left on pipe walls catches waste and starts the next clog. After jetting, the line is closer to its original capacity, so drains stay clear longer.
Not every line is a good candidate for jetting. Very old or fragile pipes can be damaged by high pressure. That is why we usually start with a camera inspection. If the pipe is sound, jetting is safe and highly effective. If it is not, we will tell you and suggest another approach.
- ✓ Full-diameter cleaning, not just a hole through the clog
- ✓ Removes grease, scale, sludge, and small roots
- ✓ Camera inspection first to confirm the pipe can handle it
- ✓ Leaves the line closer to original flow capacity
