Overview
What hydro jetting actually means
Hydro jetting uses controlled high-pressure water through a nozzle matched to pipe diameter and blockage type to scour the interior of a drain or sewer line. Done correctly, it removes grease, soft scale, root mass, and debris beyond a single punch-through path.
We use jetting to clear active backups, prep cast iron and lateral lines for CIPP, and as a maintenance tool for restaurants, apartment buildings, and commercial kitchens that load their lines with grease and food solids.
Every jetting job ends with a camera pass so you can see what was actually cleared. If the underlying line is broken, scaled beyond cleaning, or root-bound, you will know.
What's included
- Nozzle and pressure matched to the pipe diameter and blockage type
- Effective on grease, soft scale, root intrusion, and debris
- Scheduled maintenance available for commercial and multifamily clients
- Camera verification after every jetting session
- Safe for properly installed cast iron, ABS, PVC, and clay lines
How the work goes
Pre-jet camera (when needed)
If we have not seen the line before, we run a quick camera pass to choose the right nozzle and pressure.
Jet the line
Using the appropriate jetter and nozzle, we clear the blockage and scour the pipe wall on the way back.
Post-jet camera
A final camera pass shows you the cleared line and any underlying structural issues that jetting cannot fix.
Maintenance plan (optional)
For commercial and multifamily clients, we set a recurring jetting cadence so chronic lines stay ahead of backups.
Ideal for
- Restaurants and commercial kitchens with grease-loaded drains
- Apartment buildings with recurring mainline backups
- Property managers maintaining multi-unit drain systems
- Homeowners with chronic root intrusion in the lateral
