When jetting makes sense
- Clogs keep coming back. The same drain backs up again weeks after it was cleared.
- Several drains are slow. Kitchen, tubs and toilets sluggish at the same time point to the main line.
- Grease or roots are the cause. Kitchen grease and tree roots cling to pipe walls where a cable can't scour.
- Sewage backing up? Stop using water until the line is cleared.
How hydro jetting works
A hose with a special nozzle goes into the line, usually through a cleanout. Jets on the nozzle spray forward to break up the blockage and backward to drive the hose along the pipe, washing the debris downstream. A camera inspection can show the condition of the line before and after.
Is it safe for my pipes?
Jetting is meant for sound drain and sewer lines. If a line is cracked, crushed or badly corroded, jetting isn't the fix, so we check the line first and recommend a repair instead when that's what it needs.
If the problem has already soaked floors, walls or cabinets, the same call covers extraction, drying and repairs.

Questions
Is hydro jetting better than snaking?
For one simple clog, a cable usually does the job. For grease, roots or clogs that keep coming back, jetting cleans the whole pipe wall, so the line stays clear longer.
Do you jet main sewer lines?
Yes, residential drain and sewer lines. If sewage has already backed up, we can clean that up too.
Do you charge to come out?
No. There's no dispatch fee. Once we're on site and have seen the problem, we give you an upfront estimate for the work needed.
