FAQs
What is hydro-jetting and how does it differ from traditional drain snaking?
Hydro-jetting (often called “jetting” or “water jetting”) is a professional plumbing method that uses a high-pressure water stream—from 2,000 to 4,000 PSI—to scour the full interior diameter of your pipe. While a standard cable snake only bores a hole through the clog, hydro-jetting peels away grease, scale, soap scum, roots, and debris along the entire pipe wall, restoring it to near-original flow capacity. This makes jetting the preferred option for heavy, recurring, or commercial-grade blockages.
When should I consider hydro-jetting for my drains in Ocoee?
Choose hydro-jetting when you experience any of the following: (1) recurring backups in the same line, which indicates a thick buildup instead of a single obstruction; (2) slow or gurgling drains throughout the property, suggesting main-line restriction; (3) grease or sludge accumulation from restaurants or home kitchens; (4) tree-root intrusion in clay or cast-iron sewer laterals; or (5) before a camera inspection or lining project, because clean pipe walls provide clearer video and better liner adhesion.
Is hydro-jetting safe for older PVC, cast-iron, or clay sewer lines?
Yes—when performed by trained technicians who select the proper PSI, nozzle type, and cleaning technique. Our Ocoee plumbers first inspect the line with a sewer camera to confirm structural integrity. For fragile clay or aging cast-iron, we dial down the pressure, use a wide-angle flushing nozzle instead of a penetrating tip, and keep the jet stream moving to prevent concentrated force on one spot. This controlled approach safely removes roots and scale without cracking or pitting the pipe.
How much does hydro-jetting cost in Ocoee and what factors influence the price?
Residential jetting typically ranges from $275 to $550 per line; commercial jobs or long sewer mains can run higher. The main cost variables are: pipe length and diameter, severity of buildup, accessibility (clean-out vs. roof vent), the need for pre- or post-camera inspection, and whether root-cutting nozzles are required. We provide upfront, flat-rate quotes after an on-site evaluation so you know the exact investment before work begins.
Will hydro-jetting permanently fix my clogged drain?
Hydro-jetting offers the most thorough cleaning available and often keeps lines clear for several years. However, no mechanical method can guarantee a permanent solution if underlying issues—such as bellied pipe sections, offset joints, or ongoing grease disposal—aren’t addressed. After jetting, we perform a camera inspection and provide a condition report. If structural defects or habitual grease loading exist, we’ll recommend targeted repairs or a preventive maintenance schedule to prevent future problems.
