How Hydro Jetting Clears Stubborn Clogs
Hydro jetting is a professional-grade drain cleaning method that uses high-pressure water jets to clear out pipes. A specialized hose is inserted into your plumbing system to send pressurized water through the line to break apart grease, sludge, roots, and mineral buildup. Unlike traditional snaking or augering, hydro jetting scrubs the full diameter of the pipe, restoring it to near-original condition without the use of harsh chemicals. It’s tough on clogs, but safe for your plumbing when done by trained professionals.
Signs You Need Hydro Jetting
Minor clogs don’t require hydro jetting, but certain warning signs point to deeper, more serious buildup in your plumbing system. If you’re experiencing any of the signs below, you may benefit from this advanced drain cleaning method:
- Recurring clogs: If you keep having to clear the same drain over and over, the root cause may be deep in the line.
- Slow drainage: Water that drains slowly from sinks, tubs, or floor drains could signal a blockage in the main line.
- Gurgling sounds: Air bubbles caused by trapped debris can create strange noises in your drains.
- Multiple clogged drains: If more than one drain in your home is backing up, your main sewer line may be clogged.
- Foul drain odors: Lingering smells can be a sign of waste buildup or stagnant water inside your pipes.
Hydro Jetting vs. Other Drain Cleaning Methods
There are many drain cleaning methods. Hydro jetting is the most powerful one, but others might be more appropriate depending on your system and situation:
- Plungers can break up surface-level clogs in toilets and sinks, but they don’t address buildup deeper in the pipes.
- Drain snakes (or augers) use a rotating cable to dislodge obstructions and are useful for clearing small blockages.
- Motorized augers are stronger and can cut through more stubborn clogs, but they often leave residue behind.
Hydro jetting, by contrast, removes the entire buildup along the pipe walls, making it ideal for recurring clogs, heavy grease, or tree root intrusions. It’s often the most effective long-term solution.

Hydro Jetting FAQs
Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?
Hydro jetting is generally safe when performed by a licensed plumber who assesses your pipe condition beforehand. For older or fragile pipes, we’ll conduct a camera inspection first to ensure the system can handle the pressure safely.
How does hydro jetting prevent future clogs?
By thoroughly cleaning the interior walls of your pipes, hydro jetting removes the grime and residue that other methods leave behind. This not only clears the current blockage but also reduces the chances of new debris sticking and forming future clogs.
