What Happens When Drains Actually Work

You know that satisfying whoosh when water finally drains like it should? That’s what proper hydro jetting delivers – and it lasts.

No more standing water in your basement floor drain. No more kitchen sink that backs up every few weeks. No more bathroom that smells like something died in the pipes.

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water – up to 4,000 PSI – to scour your pipes completely clean. It removes grease buildup that’s been accumulating for years, cuts through tree roots that have invaded your sewer line, and clears debris that regular snaking just pushes around. When we’re done, your drains flow like they did when your house was new.

Hydro Jet Plumbing Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your drain with a camera to see what we’re dealing with. This shows us the type of blockage, where it’s located, and the condition of your pipes. No guesswork.

Next, we insert the hydro jetting nozzle into your drain line. The nozzle has forward-facing jets to break up blockages and rear-facing jets that pull debris back toward the access point. We start with lower pressure and increase as needed – typically between 1,500 and 4,000 PSI depending on your pipes and the blockage.

The high-pressure water cuts through grease, pulverizes tree roots, and scours the pipe walls clean. Everything gets flushed out through your main sewer line. After we’re finished, we run the camera through again so you can see the difference. Your pipes will look completely different.

What's Included in Every Service

Every hydro jetting service starts with a thorough camera inspection. We need to see the condition of your pipes before we start – hydro jetting can damage pipes that are already compromised, and we won’t take that risk with your property.

You get the actual cleaning with our professional hydro jetting equipment, not some underpowered substitute. We carry different nozzles for different situations – chain flail nozzles for heavy roots, penetrating nozzles for tough blockages, and finishing nozzles that leave your pipes spotless.

After the cleaning, we run the camera through again and show you the results. Most customers are shocked at the difference. We also provide recommendations if we spot potential problems that could cause issues down the road. You’ll know exactly what condition your drains are in when we leave.

Hydro jetting typically keeps drains clear for 2-4 years, sometimes longer depending on usage and what goes down your drains. Regular snaking might clear a blockage temporarily, but it often leaves buildup on the pipe walls that causes problems to return within months. Hydro jetting removes everything – grease, soap scum, mineral deposits, and debris – leaving your pipes as clean as possible. Most of our Bloomingdale customers who get hydro jetting done don’t need another drain cleaning for years, while those who stick with snaking often call us back within 6-12 months.
That’s exactly why we always start with a camera inspection. Many Bloomingdale homes have clay sewer lines or older cast iron pipes that might not handle full pressure. Our camera inspection shows us any cracks, breaks, or weak spots before we begin. If your pipes are in good condition, hydro jetting is completely safe and won’t cause damage. If we find compromised areas, we’ll adjust our approach or recommend repairs first. We’d rather be honest about your pipe condition upfront than cause expensive damage by rushing into high-pressure cleaning on pipes that can’t handle it.
Hydro jetting excels at removing buildup that snaking just can’t touch. Heavy grease accumulation in kitchen lines, mineral deposits from hard water, tree roots that have grown into joints, and years of soap scum buildup all respond better to high-pressure water than mechanical snaking. Snaking can poke a hole through a blockage, but it often leaves most of the buildup stuck to your pipe walls. Hydro jetting scours the entire pipe diameter clean, removing buildup that’s been accumulating for years. It’s particularly effective on main sewer lines where multiple drains contribute to the problem.
Hydro jetting typically costs more upfront than basic snaking, but it saves money long-term because you need it much less frequently. Basic drain snaking might cost $150-250 but often needs repeating every 6-12 months. Hydro jetting usually runs $400-700 depending on the complexity, but it can keep your drains clear for years. When you factor in the reduced frequency and the peace of mind of knowing your drains are completely clean, most customers find hydro jetting more cost-effective. Plus, you avoid the frustration and potential water damage from recurring backups.
We guarantee that hydro jetting will remove all removable blockages and buildup from your drain lines. However, some drain problems aren’t caused by blockages – they’re caused by broken pipes, improper slope, or structural issues. That’s why our camera inspection is so important. If hydro jetting is the right solution for your specific problem, it will work. If we discover during our inspection that your issue requires pipe repair or replacement instead, we’ll explain exactly what needs to be done and why. We don’t perform services that won’t solve your actual problem.
For most residential properties, hydro jetting every 3-5 years works well as preventive maintenance, but it depends on your household and usage patterns. Homes with garbage disposals, large families, or older plumbing might benefit from more frequent cleaning. Commercial properties or homes with heavy grease usage typically need it every 1-2 years. The best approach is to have your drains camera-inspected periodically – we can show you how much buildup is accumulating and recommend timing based on what we actually see in your pipes rather than guessing based on averages.
