What Happens When Your Drains Actually Work

Your drains flow like they’re supposed to. Water disappears down the sink without that slow gurgle you’ve gotten used to. Your basement stays dry during heavy rains because your sewer line can handle the load.

You stop calling plumbers every few months for the same recurring clogs. The smell from your floor drain disappears. Your garbage disposal drains completely instead of leaving standing water.

Hydro jetting doesn’t just push the problem down the line like snaking does. It strips away years of grease, soap buildup, and debris that’s been coating your pipes. Tree roots that have been growing into your sewer line get cut away completely. You get your plumbing system back to working condition.

Hydro Jetting Process Geneva

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your drain with a camera to see exactly what we’re dealing with. This shows us the type of blockage, the condition of your pipes, and the best approach for clearing everything out.

Next, we insert the hydro jetting nozzle into your drain line. This specialized nozzle shoots high-pressure water in multiple directions – forward to break through blockages and backward to flush everything toward the main line. The pressure is adjustable based on your pipe material and the severity of the blockage.

The water pressure does the work. It cuts through grease, dissolves soap buildup, breaks apart debris, and slices through tree roots. Everything gets flushed completely out of your system. After we’re done, we run the camera again so you can see the difference. Your pipes look like new inside.

What's Included in Every Service

Every hydro jetting service includes a complete camera inspection before we start. You’ll see exactly what’s causing your drainage problems. We explain what we find in plain terms – no technical jargon or unnecessary upselling.

The actual hydro jetting process is thorough. We don’t rush through it or declare victory after the first breakthrough. We make multiple passes to ensure every section of your drain line is completely clear. Different nozzles handle different types of blockages.

You get a follow-up camera inspection when we’re finished. This isn’t just to show off our work – it’s to make sure we didn’t miss anything and that your pipes are in good condition. If we spot potential issues developing, we’ll point them out so you can address them before they become expensive problems.

Hydro jetting typically costs between $300-600 for most residential drain lines in Geneva, depending on the severity of the blockage and the length of pipe that needs cleaning. Main sewer line hydro jetting usually runs $400-800. The exact price depends on what our camera inspection reveals about your specific situation. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. Most customers find hydro jetting costs less than repeated service calls for the same recurring problem, and it lasts much longer than traditional drain cleaning methods.
Professional hydro jetting is safe for pipes in good structural condition, including older cast iron and clay pipes common in Geneva’s established neighborhoods. We always start with a camera inspection to assess your pipe condition before using any high-pressure water. Our equipment has adjustable pressure settings – we use lower pressure for older pipes and higher pressure for newer, more durable materials. If your pipes are severely deteriorated or have major cracks, we’ll identify that during the inspection and recommend appropriate alternatives. The camera inspection protects both your pipes and our reputation.
Most residential customers see results lasting 1-3 years, depending on usage patterns and what was causing the original blockage. Kitchen drains that handle a lot of grease might need attention sooner, while bathroom drains typically stay clear longer. Sewer lines cleared of tree roots usually stay flowing well for 2-4 years before roots regrow enough to cause problems. The key difference is that hydro jetting removes buildup completely rather than just poking a hole through it like snaking does. We can give you a more specific timeline based on what we find during your service and your household’s usage patterns.
Yes, hydro jetting is highly effective at cutting through tree roots that have grown into sewer lines. The high-pressure water cuts roots flush with the pipe wall and flushes all the debris out of your system. This is much more thorough than mechanical cutting, which often leaves root stubs that regrow quickly. However, hydro jetting doesn’t prevent roots from growing back – it just removes what’s currently there. For properties with persistent root problems, we often recommend scheduling preventative hydro jetting every 2-3 years to keep roots from building up to problem levels again.
Hydro jetting is significantly more effective than snaking for stubborn or recurring clogs. Snaking typically pokes a hole through the blockage, allowing water to flow temporarily, but leaves most of the buildup coating your pipes. Hydro jetting strips the pipe walls clean, removing grease, soap scum, mineral deposits, and debris that snaking can’t touch. This is why snaked drains often clog again within weeks or months, while hydro jetted drains typically stay clear for years. For simple, isolated clogs, snaking might be sufficient and less expensive. For recurring problems or severe blockages, hydro jetting provides a real solution rather than a temporary fix.
Yes, we provide emergency hydro jetting services throughout Geneva and surrounding areas when you’re dealing with severe backups or overflowing drains. Emergency service is available evenings, weekends, and holidays, though emergency rates apply for after-hours calls. Keep in mind that some situations requiring immediate attention might need basic drain clearing first to stop the immediate backup, followed by thorough hydro jetting once the emergency is controlled. We carry hydro jetting equipment on our service trucks, so we can often provide same-visit service if your pipes are suitable for the process and the situation allows for proper inspection and setup.
