Hydro Jetting Services

Whether it’s a stubborn clog, tree roots working their way into your main line, or slow drainage that keeps coming back, our plumbers use professional-grade jetter machines to clear pipes fast and safely, without damaging them. Unlike a drain auger, which bores a hole through a clog, hydro jetting blasts the entire interior wall of the pipe clean for results that last longer.

Signs You Need Hydro Jetting

Call us for emergency or routine service if you notice:

  • Standing water in sinks, tubs, or showers
  • Slow-draining toilets or sinks
  • Gurgling or bubbling sounds from pipes
  • Foul odors coming from drains
  • Recurring clogs or backed-up plumbing

Hydro Jetting vs. Other Drain Cleaning Methods

Not sure which method actually fits your situation? Here’s the quick breakdown:

  • Hydro Jetting — best for major or recurring clogs, root intrusion, or a full pipe cleaning
  • Drain Auger (Snake) — good for smaller, surface-level blockages
  • Rooter Service — targets deep clogs or tree roots using rotating cutting tools

Our licensed plumbers will assess your system and recommend the safest, most effective option rather than defaulting to the most aggressive one.

At the core of our business is a commitment to customer satisfaction. We prioritize exceptional service at every step, from initial consultations to follow-up support, ensuring that every client feels valued and heard. By focusing on quality workmanship, transparent communication, and attentive service, we aim to exceed expectations and build lasting relationships with our customers.

FAQs

What is hydro jetting?

Hydro jetting is a drain cleaning method that uses a high-pressure water jetting system to blast through buildup, grease, tree roots, and debris. Unlike a drain auger, which bores a hole through a clog, hydro jetting clears the entire interior of the pipe for longer-lasting results.

How much does hydro jetting cost?

Cost depends on a few factors:

  • Location and depth of the blockage
  • Whether camera inspection or rooter service is also needed
  • How accessible the affected pipe is
  • Whether it’s a main line issue or a smaller interior drain

We’ll inspect your system and give you an upfront quote with no surprises.

How long does hydro jetting take?

Most jobs are completed in one to two hours. More complex clogs, especially in sewer lines or heavily rooted pipes, generally take longer. We’ll give you a time estimate during your appointment. 

How often should I schedule hydro jetting?

Most homeowners benefit from hydro jetting once every 1–2 years, especially with older pipes, heavy grease use in the kitchen, or frequent clogs. Regular jetting helps prevent major backups, removes grease and mineral buildup, eliminates odors, and extends the life of your pipes.

What other drain cleaning services do you offer?

Beyond hydro jetting, we also provide camera and video drain inspections, rooter service and root removal, traditional drain clearing, and emergency drain service available 24/7.
