I've been using Flotek for a few years now! My only regret is I didn't find him sooner! Gabe is the most professional plumber or tradesman I've ever worked with in my 30 years in business! He shows up on time and is extremely knowledgeable. In the restaurant business if you don't have a professional plumber on your team you'll be flushing your money down the drain!

Our toilet would not drain properly. Upon arrival, Gabriel quickly confirmed the main line was clogged. Wrote up a proposal and explained in detail what was wrong and what needed to be done. No BS. No extraneous explanation. Yes, an expensive repair but the pricing was fair and the tech was HIGHLY professional and thorough. Plus, per our request, Flotek arrived within less than an hour after we called.

Professional Hydro Jetting Services

What Happens When Drains Actually Work

Your drains flow like they’re supposed to. No more standing water in the basement after heavy rains. No more calling a plumber every few months for the same clog.

The foul smell from your main line disappears. Your kitchen sink drains completely when you’re doing dishes. Your shower doesn’t turn into a bathtub halfway through.

Most importantly, you stop worrying about when the next backup will happen. Hydro jetting doesn’t just push problems down the line – it removes them entirely, giving you months or even years before you need to think about that drain again.

We Know Kane County Plumbing

We’ve been handling North Aurora’s toughest drain problems for years. We’ve seen what tree roots do to sewer lines in established neighborhoods, and we know how grease buildup affects older commercial properties.

When other methods fail, property owners in Kane County call us. We show up with the right equipment and the experience to get the job done right the first time.

Hydro Jetting in North Aurora: What We See Locally

According to Census data, the median North Aurora home was built in 2000, and 18% of North Aurora homes were built before 1970. In homes from that era, original cast iron drains and clay sewer laterals are common, and roots and scale are frequent causes of slow drains and sewer backups.

North Aurora’s Overhead Sewer Grant pays 75% of the cost, up to $6,000, to convert a home to an overhead sewer and stop sanitary backups. Sump discharge must connect to the public storm sewer where one is available. Hydro jetting scours buildup and roots from the full pipe wall instead of just punching a hole through the clog, and a camera inspection shows us the line’s condition first.

Hydro Jet Plumbing Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your drain with a camera to see exactly what we’re dealing with. Tree roots, grease buildup, mineral deposits – we need to know what’s blocking your line and where.

Next, we insert a specialized nozzle into your drain line. This nozzle shoots high-pressure water in multiple directions, scouring the pipe walls clean while flushing debris toward the main sewer line. The pressure is adjustable based on your pipe material and the type of blockage.

The entire process typically takes 1-3 hours depending on the severity of the blockage. We finish with another camera inspection to confirm the line is completely clear. You’ll see the before and after footage yourself – the difference is dramatic.

Hydro Jetting Drain Cleaning

What You Get With Our Service

Complete blockage removal, not just a temporary fix. Our hydro jetting service removes grease, soap buildup, mineral deposits, small tree roots, and decades of accumulated debris that traditional snaking can’t reach.

We handle residential and commercial properties throughout North Aurora. Kitchen drains, bathroom lines, main sewer connections, storm drains – if water flows through it, we can clean it. Our equipment works on pipes from 2 inches to 12 inches in diameter.

Every job includes before and after camera inspection, so you see exactly what was blocking your drain and confirm it’s completely gone. We also provide straightforward pricing upfront – no surprises when the job is done.

Hydro jetting typically costs more upfront than traditional snaking, but it saves money long-term because it lasts much longer. While snaking might clear a path through a blockage, hydro jetting removes the entire buildup from pipe walls. Most customers find they need service much less frequently after hydro jetting – sometimes going years between cleanings instead of months. The exact cost depends on the severity of the blockage and accessibility of your drain line, but we provide upfront pricing before starting any work.
Professional hydro jetting is safe for all pipe materials when done correctly. We adjust water pressure based on your specific pipe type and condition – older cast iron pipes get lower pressure than newer PVC. Before starting, we inspect your pipes with a camera to identify any existing damage or weak spots. If your pipes are too fragile for hydro jetting, we’ll recommend alternative solutions. Our technicians are trained to recognize when hydro jetting isn’t appropriate, and we’ll never risk damaging your plumbing system.
Results vary based on what caused the original blockage and your usage patterns, but most residential customers see 1-3 years of clear drainage after hydro jetting. Commercial kitchens or properties with heavy grease buildup might need service more frequently. Tree root intrusion depends on the type of trees and season, but hydro jetting typically provides 2-5 years of relief. The key difference from snaking is that hydro jetting removes buildup from the entire pipe diameter, not just creates a small opening, which is why results last so much longer.
Yes, hydro jetting effectively removes most tree roots from sewer lines. The high-pressure water cuts through smaller roots and flushes them out completely. For larger root masses, we might need to combine hydro jetting with mechanical cutting tools. However, hydro jetting won’t fix the underlying problem – if roots are entering through pipe joints or cracks, they’ll eventually grow back. We’ll identify these entry points during our camera inspection and discuss long-term solutions to prevent future root intrusion.
Yes. The Village of North Aurora’s Overhead Sewer Grant reimburses 75% of the cost, up to $6,000, to convert a home to an overhead sewer. It requires two contractor quotes and village plumbing inspections, and check valves on their own do not qualify. FloTek can provide a quote for the application.
