Hydro Jetting Near Brea, California
Hydro Jetting Near Brea, California
Deep-clean your drains and sewer — not just poke a hole through the clog.
While a cable (snake) can open flow, hydro jetting uses high-pressure water and specialized nozzles to scrub pipe walls clean. That removes the grease, scale, and debris that cause repeat blockages, restoring the line’s internal diameter and improving long-term flow.
When Hydro Jetting Is the Right Choice
- Kitchen line full of grease that re-clogs quickly after snaking
- Main sewer line with heavy sludge, scale, or root intrusion
- Recurring backups across multiple fixtures
- Preparing a line for camera inspection or trenchless repair
- After construction/remodel debris gets into the line
If the camera shows cracked, collapsed, or offset pipe, we’ll discuss repair options — jetting can’t fix structural damage.
Common Problems Hydro Jetting Solves
- Grease and food buildup in kitchen drains
- Soap scum, hair, and mineral scale in bathroom lines
- Sludge and paper accumulation in main lines
- Tree roots (when paired with cutting and follow-up jetting)
- Foul sewer odors caused by buildup and standing waste
Signs You Need Hydro Jetting (Not Just Snaking)
- Multiple fixtures gurgle or back up together
- Slow drains return within days/weeks after a basic clear
- Sewer smell at a cleanout or outdoors
- Heavy use homes (big families, frequent cooking) with periodic backups
- Older piping (cast iron/clay) with scale or rough interiors

Hydro Jetting vs. Snaking — What’s the Difference?
- Snaking (rooter): Cuts a path through the clog to restore flow. Fast and cost-effective for many blockages.
- Hydro jetting: Cleans pipe walls and removes residue that snaking leaves behind. Best for heavy grease, scale, or repeat clogs.
We’ll recommend the least-cost option that actually solves the problem.
Add-Ons That Pair Well
- Sewer camera inspection (before/after)
- Root cutting followed by jetting for root-heavy lines
- Cleanout installation for better future access
- Preventive maintenance schedule for grease-prone lines
Prevent Future Clogs
- Keep grease and oils out of kitchen drains; wipe pans before washing
- Use hair screens in showers and bathroom sinks
- Only flush toilet paper — no wipes or hygiene products
- Schedule periodic cleaning if you have trees or older piping

Hydro Jetting FAQs
Is hydro jetting safe for my pipes?
When done by pros with the correct pressure/nozzle for your pipe material and size, yes. If your pipe is fragile/damaged, we’ll recommend alternatives.
Do I need a cleanout?
A cleanout makes jetting faster and cleaner. If you don’t have one, we can often access another way or install a proper cleanout.
Will hydro jetting stop roots permanently?
It removes roots that made it into the pipe, but if the pipe is cracked or joints are open, roots can return. We may recommend repair or lining for a long-term fix.
How long does hydro jetting take?
Most residential jetting jobs take 60–120 minutes, depending on access, pipe length, and severity.
Should I jet before a camera inspection?
Often yes — jetting cleans the view so the camera can accurately assess pipe condition.
