Our Precision Hydro-Jetting Service Process

Our hydro-jetting service is a specialized, multi-step process that ensures the safety of your plumbing system while delivering the most thorough clean possible.

Step 1: Pre-Service Camera Inspection

Before any water is introduced, our technician performs a Plumbing Inspection using a high-resolution camera. This critical step confirms the exact location and nature of the blockage (e.g., grease, roots, foreign objects) and, more importantly, verifies the structural integrity of the pipe. Hydro-jetting is only performed on pipes that are structurally sound to prevent damage.

Step 2: System Preparation and Safety Protocol

We access the drain line via a cleanout point and set up the hydro-jetting equipment. All necessary safety measures are put in place, including securing the access point and managing water flow, to ensure a controlled and safe operation.

Step 3: High-Pressure Water Jetting

The specialized nozzle is carefully inserted into the pipe. The technician then activates the high-pressure water stream, which is directed in a 360-degree pattern. This powerful force breaks down and flushes all debris, scale, and buildup out of the pipe and into the sewer system, effectively restoring the pipe to a like-new condition.

Step 4: Post-Service Camera Verification and Report

Once the jetting is complete, a second camera inspection is performed. This step verifies that the pipe is completely clear and clean, providing visual confirmation of the service’s success. We then provide a detailed report, including video footage, and recommend a maintenance schedule to prevent future issues. If the inspection reveals irreparable damage, we will discuss options such as Trenchless Pipe Repair or Sewer Line Replacement.

  • What is the difference between hydro-jetting and snaking?

    Snaking (or cabling) is a mechanical process that uses a rotating cable to bore a hole through a clog, but it often leaves residual buildup on the pipe walls. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to completely scour the entire pipe interior, removing all buildup and restoring the pipe to its original diameter.

  • Is hydro-jetting safe for all types of pipes?

    Hydro-jetting is safe for most modern, structurally sound pipes, including PVC and cast iron. However, it is not safe for severely damaged, brittle, or older clay pipes. This is why the pre-service camera inspection is a mandatory safety step to assess pipe condition.

  • How long does a hydro-jetting service take?

    The duration of the service depends on the severity and location of the clog, but a typical residential hydro-jetting service usually takes between one to three hours to complete, including the pre- and post-service camera inspections.

  • Can hydro-jetting remove tree roots?

    Yes, hydro-jetting is highly effective at removing tree roots that have infiltrated the sewer line. The powerful water stream cuts through the roots and flushes them out of the system, providing a much more thorough and long-lasting solution than snaking.

  • How often should I schedule hydro-jetting for preventative maintenance?

    For most residential properties, scheduling hydro-jetting every one to two years is sufficient for preventative maintenance, especially in areas prone to grease buildup (kitchen lines) or tree root intrusion (main sewer line).
