Hydro Jetting Services

Powerful Pipe Cleaning, Done Right

Hydro jetting is one of the most effective ways to clear even the toughest clogs and buildup from your pipes, and it’s a service we perform every week for homes and businesses throughout La Crescenta, La Cañada Flintridge, Montrose, Glendale, and Burbank. Grease, scale, and root intrusion choke drains over time, and a standard snake often only punches a small hole through the blockage rather than clearing it. Our high-pressure water jetting restores your pipes to full flow without harsh chemicals or invasive digging.

Every technician we send is trained specifically on hydro jetting equipment, licensed, bonded and insured (California CSLB #1027398). We inspect the line first whenever possible so we can confirm hydro jetting is the right call for your pipe material and condition before we start — older or fragile pipes sometimes call for a gentler approach, and we’ll always tell you honestly which service fits your situation best.

Our Hydro Jetting Services Include:

  • High-Pressure Pipe Clearing: We use industrial-grade jetting equipment to blast away grease, sludge, mineral scale, and debris from the interior walls of your pipes, restoring them close to their original diameter.

  • Root Intrusion Removal: Hydro jetting cuts through and flushes out tree root intrusions that standard snaking can’t fully clear, helping prevent repeat backups in your sewer line.

  • Preventive Maintenance Jetting: For restaurants, older homes, and properties with recurring clogs, we offer scheduled jetting to keep pipes clear year-round and reduce the risk of emergency backups.

  • Pre- & Post-Jetting Camera Inspection: Where needed, we run a camera through the line before and after jetting so you can see the condition of your pipes and confirm the blockage is fully cleared.

  • Restaurant & Commercial Grease Line Service: Commercial kitchens rely on regular jetting to keep grease traps and drain lines compliant and free-flowing between inspections.

Hydro jetting isn’t the right fix for every pipe, which is why we never recommend it sight unseen. If you’re not sure whether your clog needs jetting, a snake, or something else, give us a call and we’ll walk you through it honestly. You can verify our license anytime through the California Contractors State License Board. Ready to get your pipes flowing like new? Call us at (818) 790-7270 or request service online.

Hydro Jetting for Drain and Sewer Lines

Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside wall of a drain or sewer line. Cabling cuts an opening through a blockage; jetting removes the material that caused it. That difference is why a line cleared by cable can back up again within weeks, while a properly jetted line often stays clear far longer.

When jetting is the right tool

  • Heavy grease accumulation, especially kitchen and restaurant lines
  • Sludge and soap build-up narrowing the pipe over years of use
  • Fine root hair working through joints in older clay and cast-iron laterals
  • Scale on the pipe wall reducing effective diameter
  • Lines that back up repeatedly after conventional clearing

Commercial, HOA and multifamily applications

This is where jetting earns its keep. A commercial kitchen puts more grease through its lines in a month than a household does in a year, and a shared stack serving a dozen units accumulates the same way. In apartment, condominium and HOA buildings a single blocked stack can back up into multiple units at once, so the goal is keeping the line genuinely clear rather than repeatedly reopening it. See HOA & property management plumbing and commercial plumbing.

Preventive scheduling

For properties with a known history of grease or root problems, jetting on a planned interval is usually cheaper and far less disruptive than emergency clearing. We set intervals from the building’s own service history rather than a default calendar — see preventive plumbing maintenance.

How we approach a job

Where the line’s condition is unknown we recommend a camera inspection first. Jetting is a powerful process and the pipe has to be sound enough to take it; a camera shows whether we are dealing with build-up on an intact line, or a cracked, collapsed or offset pipe that needs repair or replacement instead. After jetting we can re-inspect to confirm the result. If a line turns out to be structurally compromised, we will tell you rather than jetting it anyway.

FAQs

Will jetting damage my pipes? Not on a sound line. On a pipe already cracked or badly deteriorated it can worsen the damage, which is exactly why we inspect first when the condition is unknown.

Is jetting always better than cabling? No. A single-fixture stoppage is usually cleared faster and more cheaply by cable — see drain cleaning & rooter service. Jetting is for build-up and recurring problems.

Does it remove roots? It removes root material inside the pipe. It does not stop roots re-entering through a defective joint, which is a repair question.
