Most of us look forward to becoming homeowners—without necessarily relishing the maintenance work and costs that go into keeping the property to its highest standard. Water damage and septic tank issues are two problems that can come up unexpectedly—with potentially long-term consequences. Fortunately, hydro jetting is an environmentally friendly, effective method of pipe cleaning performed by a plumber that’s used to improve the overall function of your plumbing lines.

What Is Hydro Jetting?

Hydro jetting is a fast, effective method of clearing pipes with a high-pressured water stream. It is more effective than using drain or sewer snakes as it is capable of reaching difficult areas that are far from the affected drain. Professional plumbers can perform this service to remove blockages and buildup within your pipes. 

Signs You Need Hydro Jetting

Pipes that are clogged may eventually burst, which may manifest itself as yard or sewer leaks. Rather than letting it get to that point, pay attention to what your plumbing is trying to tell you.

Request hydro-jetting service if your kitchen or bathroom sinks are producing unappetizing smells, you have experienced slow drainage, the water bill has sharply increased for no reason, or if your pipes are making unexpected grinding or hissing noises.

How Does It Work?

First, a video inspection is performed to identify the location and cause of the blockage. If there are large tree roots creating an obstruction, they will need to be chopped to then be removed. A nozzle is fed into the drainpipe to deliver the pressurized water to the right area. Large roots, grease clogs, mineral and scale buildup, and other debris can be removed easily with the 3,500 psi water stream.
