What hydro jetting involves

Hydro jetting uses a stream of high-pressure water to scour the inside of a drain or sewer pipe clean. Where a cable machine punches a hole through a clog, jetting strips grease, mineral scale, sludge and roots off the pipe walls, which is why it works on clogs that keep coming back.

It is the right choice for kitchen lines packed with grease, main lines with root intrusion, restaurants and other commercial kitchens, and any line that has been snaked more than once without lasting results.

Hydro jetting takes training. The wrong pressure can damage an older or cracked pipe, so Mesquite Plumbing runs a camera inspection first to check the condition of the line and set the pressure. After jetting, we can run the camera again so you can see the clean pipe.

Commercial kitchens often put jetting on a schedule so grease never builds up to the point of a Friday-night backup. Homes usually need it only when a line has a history of repeat clogs.

How it works

Our process

  1. 1

    Locate the clog

    We test the fixtures to see whether one drain or the whole line is affected.

  2. 2

    Look inside if needed

    A camera inspection shows roots, breaks or buildup and the right pressure for jetting.

  3. 3

    Clear the line

    Cable machine or hydro jetting, matched to the pipe and the clog.

  4. 4

    Flow test

    We run water through every affected fixture before we leave.

Questions

Hydro Jetting FAQs

When is hydro jetting better than snaking?

Snaking punches a hole through a clog. Hydro jetting scours grease, scale and roots off the pipe walls, which helps when clogs keep coming back.

Can you install drains for a remodel?

Yes. We install new drain lines sized and sloped to code for kitchens, baths and laundry rooms.
