Professional Hydro Jetting & High-Pressure Drain Cleaning
Hydro jetting is a powerful drain cleaning method that uses highly pressurized water to break apart blockages and wash accumulated debris from the interior walls of pipes.
Unlike traditional drain snaking, which primarily breaks through obstructions, hydro jetting can also remove buildup along the inside of the pipe.
Rooter-Man provides high-pressure water jetting for residential and commercial drain and sewer systems.
Depending on your drainage problem, hydro jetting may help with:
Grease & Sludge Removal
High-pressure water helps break apart accumulated grease, soap residue, sludge, and other materials that restrict wastewater flow.
Main Sewer Line Cleaning
Hydro jetting can remove stubborn buildup and debris from main sewer lines, helping restore proper drainage throughout your property.
Commercial Drain Cleaning
Restaurants, businesses, and commercial properties can experience heavy grease and debris accumulation. Hydro jetting helps clean drain lines affected by recurring buildup.
Recurring Drain Blockages
When clogs repeatedly return, hydro jetting may help remove accumulated residue that traditional drain cleaning methods leave behind.
Preventative Drain Maintenance
Scheduled high-pressure drain cleaning can help reduce buildup and lower the risk of unexpected blockages and sewer backups.
Not every pipe is suitable for hydro jetting. Our technicians can evaluate your drainage system and recommend an appropriate cleaning method based on the condition of your pipes.
Signs You May Need Hydro Jetting Services
Some drain problems require more than basic clog removal. When buildup accumulates inside pipes, drainage issues may continue returning even after the initial blockage is cleared.
Common signs that hydro jetting may be beneficial include:
- Drains that repeatedly become clogged
- Slow-draining sinks, tubs, and floor drains
- Grease buildup in kitchen drain lines
- Multiple drains experiencing drainage problems
- Recurring sewer line backups
- Unpleasant odors coming from drains
- Gurgling sounds from plumbing fixtures
- Standing water around floor drains
- Commercial drains requiring frequent cleaning
- Heavy sludge or debris accumulation inside pipes
If you're experiencing recurring drainage problems, professional drain cleaning can help identify whether hydro jetting is the right solution.
Common Causes of Drain & Sewer Line Buildup
Over time, drain and sewer pipes can accumulate materials that restrict wastewater flow and increase the likelihood of blockages.
Common causes include:
- Cooking grease and fats
- Soap residue and detergent buildup
- Food particles and organic waste
- Sludge and sediment accumulation
- Hair and other debris
- Mineral deposits and scale
- Commercial kitchen grease buildup
- Paper products and foreign materials
- Years of accumulated residue
- Debris collecting inside sewer lines
While traditional drain cleaning methods can remove many blockages, hydro jetting provides a more thorough cleaning option for certain types of buildup.
For recurring problems, a video camera inspection may help determine whether the issue is caused by accumulated debris, pipe damage, root intrusion, or another condition.
Preventative Hydro Jetting & Drain Maintenance
Help Prevent Recurring Drain & Sewer Backups

- Remove accumulated grease and debris
- Improve wastewater flow
- Reduce recurring drain blockages
- Help prevent unexpected sewer backups
- Maintain commercial drainage systems

Hydro Jetting FAQs

Traditional drain snaking is commonly used to break through localized blockages, while hydro jetting can remove accumulated buildup along the interior walls of pipes. The best method depends on the type of blockage and condition of the drainage system.
