Blast away tough clogs with high-pressure water. Hydro jetting clears grease, sludge, tree roots and buildup that snaking can leave behind — no harsh chemicals.
What is a hydro jet drain cleaning service? Hydro jet drain cleaning is a professional drain maintenance method that uses high-pressure water streams (typically 3,500 to 4,000+ PSI) to completely scour the interior walls of drain and sewer pipes, flushing out grease, heavy sludge, mineral scale, and tree roots without damaging the lines or using toxic chemicals.

When to consider hydro jetting
Advanced hydro jet drain cleaning
Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure water stream — often exceeding 4,000 PSI — to blast away obstructions and scour the inside of your pipes.
Unlike snaking, which typically punches a hole through a clog, hydro jetting flushes out debris, grease, mineral deposits and even tree roots. It’s safe for most plumbing systems and an eco-friendly alternative to chemical drain cleaners.
When tree roots penetrate sewer pipe joints, standard mechanical snakes or augers only cut a small path through the core of the root mass. Hydro jetting utilizes specialized forward-facing and rear-facing water jet nozzles that act like rotary blades, pulverizing fine root hairs and thick root masses while washing the remaining organic material completely out of the main sewer line. Combined with precision camera inspections, high-pressure jetting restores full hydraulic flow capacity to severe pipe obstructions.
Hydro jet drain cleaning cost factors
The cost of a hydro jet drain cleaning service depends on several key variables, including pipe diameter, the length of the run, the accessibility of cleanouts, and the severity of the blockage. Standard residential drain or sewer jetting typically ranges from $350 to $750, while commercial main line jetting or severe tree root clearing may cost more depending on labor and setup requirements. We provide upfront, transparent quotes before any work begins so there are never surprises on your bill.

Hydro jetting FAQ
What is hydro jetting and when is it recommended?
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of your pipes, removing buildup, grease, scale and even tree roots. We recommend it for severe or recurring clogs and as preventative maintenance, especially for main sewer lines and commercial properties.
How does hydro jetting compare to drain snaking?
Drain snaking uses a flexible cable to punch a hole through a blockage to restore temporary drainage, but leaves grease, scale, and root fragments stuck to the pipe walls. Hydro jetting thoroughly scours 360 degrees of the pipe interior with high-pressure water, washing away all residual debris and returning pipes to near-original flow capacity.
Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?
Hydro jetting is safe for most piping materials, including PVC, cast iron, and clay. However, extremely old, cracked, or structurally collapsed pipes can be damaged by high-pressure water. This is why we always perform a video camera inspection before jetting to ensure your lines are structurally sound.
Do you charge a trip charge?
We quote you a price over the phone, and if you accept, we don’t charge for the trip to your home — even if the estimate changes before we start. A trip charge may apply only if the location is more than 15 miles from our office.
How often should drains be professionally cleaned?
For most homes, every one to two years. High-use commercial properties may need it annually or semi-annually.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency?
We’re available 24/7 and aim to respond as quickly as possible — often within the hour — to prevent further damage.
