FAQs
What is hydro-jetting and how does it fix main line issues?
Hydro-jetting is a plumbing method that blasts highly pressurized water—usually 3,500–4,000 PSI—through a specialized hose and rotating nozzle to scour the inside of your main sewer line. The water stream pulverizes grease, sludge, scale, tree-root hairs, and other obstructions, flushing the debris to the city main. Unlike cable snaking, which simply bores a hole through the clog, hydro-jetting cleans the entire pipe wall, restoring full flow capacity and helping prevent future blockages.
When should I consider hydro-jetting my Harriman home’s main sewer line?
Call for hydro-jetting when you notice recurring backups, multiple slow drains in the house, gurgling toilets, or foul odors near floor drains. It’s also recommended before a home sale, after major root intrusions, or as preventative maintenance every 18–24 months if your property is surrounded by mature trees. Our Harriman technicians perform a camera inspection first to confirm that the line is structurally sound and that jetting is the most effective solution.
Is hydro-jetting safe for older or clay pipes?
Yes—provided the pipe is structurally intact. Before we jet, we run a video camera through the line to check for cracks, missing sections, or collapsed areas. If your clay, cast-iron, or aging PVC pipe shows only minor wear, hydro-jetting is generally safe; we simply dial back the pressure and use a nozzle designed for fragile lines. If severe damage is present, we’ll recommend spot repairs or trenchless relining instead of jetting to avoid making the problem worse.
How does hydro-jetting compare with traditional snaking or chemical drain cleaners?
• Effectiveness: Snaking breaks through soft blockages but leaves residue that quickly re-forms clogs. Chemicals can corrode pipes and harm the environment. Hydro-jetting removes almost 100 % of buildup and is chemical-free. • Longevity: Because jetting fully scours the pipe wall, your main line stays clear much longer than after snaking. • Versatility: Jetting tackles grease, scale, and roots—materials that cables and chemicals struggle with. • Safety: Performed by licensed professionals, hydro-jetting is safe for most residential and commercial lines and avoids the toxic fumes of drain cleaners.
