Hydro Jetting

When the same drain keeps clogging, stop renting a fix. Hydro jetting deep-cleans the entire pipe with high-pressure water — and we prove it's clean with an in-pipe camera.

Deep clean, not a quick poke

The most thorough drain cleaning available

A snake punches a hole through the clog and calls it a day. Hydro jetting is different: a high-pressure water jet scours the full inside wall of your drain or sewer line, stripping away years of grease, soap scum, scale, and invading roots — then flushes it all out of the line for good.

  • Up to 4,000 PSI of precisely controlled water pressure
  • Grease, scale & roots stripped off the pipe walls — not just pierced
  • Camera inspection before and after, so you see the proof
  • Just water — no harsh chemicals in your pipes or your yard

When hydro jetting is the right call

Jetting shines exactly where snakes and store-bought chemicals keep failing. If any of these sound familiar, it's time:

  • The same drain clogs again every few months
  • Grease-heavy kitchen lines, at home or in a restaurant
  • Tree roots that keep finding their way back in
  • Older clay or cast-iron lines coated in sludge and scale

We also set up scheduled maintenance jetting for restaurants, property managers, and commercial kitchens across Greater Cincinnati — see our commercial plumbing services.

FAQ

Questions about hydro jetting

What is hydro jetting?

Hydro jetting sends a high-pressure water jet — up to 4,000 PSI — through your drain or sewer line on a specialized nozzle. It scours grease, scale, sludge, and tree roots off the inside walls of the pipe and flushes the debris out, restoring the line to near its original diameter.

How is hydro jetting different from snaking?

A snake bores a hole through the clog, but the buildup on the pipe walls stays behind — which is why the same drain often clogs again within months. Hydro jetting cleans the entire pipe wall, so the results last far longer. For recurring clogs, it's usually the smarter money.

Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?

That's exactly why we run a camera inspection first. If a line is cracked, collapsed, or too fragile for jetting, we'll show you the footage and recommend the right fix instead. When we do jet, the pressure is matched to your pipe's material and condition.

How much does hydro jetting cost?

It depends on the length and condition of the line and how we access it. As with all our work, you'll get a flat-rate, upfront quote after the camera inspection — and nothing happens until you approve it.
