Hydro jetting in Roswell

Hydro jetting in Roswell and North Metro Atlanta. When grease, scale or sludge coats the inside of a drain line, a cable punches a hole through it and the clog is back in a month. Jetting scours the pipe wall clean. Tell us what keeps clogging. We'll check the line, confirm jetting is the right tool, and give you the scope and price before we start. Call 770-597-4141.

What hydro jetting does

A jetter pushes water through the line at high pressure from a nozzle that cleans forward and pulls itself back. It strips grease, soap scale and silt from the pipe wall and flushes it out, so the line is back to its full diameter, not just open. It is not a tool for every pipe, which is why we look first.

Signs you need hydro jetting

  • A kitchen or restaurant line that clogs again weeks after cabling.
  • Standing water that drains, then slows, then stops.
  • A main line with years of buildup and no camera history.
  • Grease traps and commercial lines on a maintenance schedule.

How we diagnose it

  1. 1We ask what has been doneA line cabled three times this year is a jetting candidate. A line that has never been looked at gets a camera first.
  2. 2We check the pipeAge, material and condition. Thin-walled cast iron or an Orangeburg line is not jetted; we tell you what is instead.
  3. 3We jet and verifyAfter jetting, a camera pass confirms the pipe wall is clean and shows anything the buildup was hiding.

Your likely options

  1. Method

    Hydro jetting

    What it does

    Full-wall cleaning of a sound line, flushing grease, scale and silt out instead of pushing a hole through it.

    When it applies
    • heavy buildup or recurring clogs in a pipe that is intact.
  2. Method

    Cabling

    What it does

    Opens a localized blockage with a cable or auger, without the pressure of a jetter.

    When it applies
    • a single obstruction, or a pipe too fragile to jet.
  3. Method

    Camera inspection first

    What it does

    A recorded camera pass shows the condition of the pipe wall before any pressure goes into it.

    When it applies
    • older pipe, unknown condition, or a backup that keeps returning after cleaning.

What it costs

A visit to look at the problem. We tell you on the phone, before we schedule, whether that visit has a charge and what it is.

  • Length and diameter of the line.
  • Access: cleanout, roof vent or an opened section.
  • Whether a camera pass before and after is included.

A written scope and price for the repair, before we start. No work beyond that scope without your OK.

Hydro jetting questions

Can jetting damage my pipes?

On a sound pipe, no. On a thin or broken one, yes, which is why we look at the condition before we jet and tell you if cabling is the safer choice.

Jetting or snaking?

Snaking opens a hole; jetting cleans the wall. For a one-off clog, snake. For a line that keeps clogging, jet.

How often should a restaurant line be jetted?

It depends on the volume and the grease trap. We set a schedule after the first cleaning and camera pass.

Do you charge to come out and look?

We tell you on the phone, before we schedule, whether the visit has a charge and what it is.

How soon can you come?

Call and we tell you straight; it depends on the day. For an active leak or backup, call rather than sending the form.
