What Is Hydro Jetting?

A sewer backup can be one of the most expensive and damaging problems a homeowner may face. A sewer backup can damage basement floors and walls, carpeting, drywall, hot water tanks, and furnaces. Costs to repair these items can be tens of thousands of dollars. Sewer backups can also be hazardous to your health, sewage carries bacteria and pathogens, and water in your basement can also lead to mold growth, which is difficult to remove, and has detrimental health effects that can linger for years. Worst of all, all this damage is not usually covered by insurance. Luckily there are ways to avoid sewer backups.

By keeping your sewer free of sediment , roots, and obstructions, you can prevent sewer backups. Some homeowners uses chemicals that break down organic materials and kills roots. These chemicals are not very effective and can damage pipes. Another way of cleaning sewer pipes is with a mechanical sewer cleaner, what is often referred to as a sewer snake. Sewer snakes can damage pipes and do not clean out sediment. The best way to clean a sewer is with our hydro jetting service.

What is hydro jetting? Hydro jetting, also known as hydro scrubbing, is similar to pressure washing. Ultra high pressure water, pressurized to over 3,000 psi, is used to remove dirt, debris, roots and other obstructions from your sewer. Hydro jetting uses spinning streams of high pressure water to remove more build-up and sediment than a traditional sewer snake can. Pressure can be adjusted to avoid damage to pipes, and the result is clean sewer that will not backup.

Sewer backups can cause extensive damage to your home, and are extremely costly to repair. A well maintained and clean sewer line can prevent backups. The hydro jetting process is the most effective way to maintain a clean, backup free sewer line. Trust our experienced sewer cleaning experts to keep your sewer clean with the hydro jetting process.
