What is Drain and Sewer Hydro Jetting?

Professional plumbers carry out hydro jetting to clean clogged drains and sewer lines. The hydro jetting machine uses 35,000 psi to blow away the blockage and loosen the buildup from the pipe’s interior.

How Does Hydro Jetting Work?

Most hydro jetting services will first perform a video inspection to figure out the cause of the pipe’s blockage. A video inspection also helps ensure that sewage does not inadvertently back up into other areas of the home such as the tub, shower, or sinks. If they see that tree roots have infiltrated the plumbing, then the hydro jetting draining cleaning process should prove successful to cut through the roots. However, if the roots are heavy or thick then the plumber might need to break through the root mass with a snake before hydro jetting to solve the problem.

Hydro jetting is not a complete solution for all problems. If you have a broken pipe, then the process will not work. Also, the sheer force of the jetting water can even weaken an aging pipe and cause a break.

The Process of Hydro Jetting

You should only have experienced plumbers, such as Conejo Valley Home Services Plumbing & Rooter, perform hydro jetting on your drain pipes. You want to have your pipes assessed by a professional before having them jetted to ensure they are structurally sound and can withstand the force of the water.

With hydro jetting, a nozzle is pushed through the drain down into the pipe. It is propelled through the pipe by the water’s pressure. Nozzle size does vary depending on the size of the drain, the application, and what is causing the clog. When the nozzle runs into the obstruction, whether it’s food, grease, paper, fabric, or some other clog, then high-pressure jets of water tear through the material so it starts to dissolve.

The PSI force of the hydro jets does vary depending on the system being used but typically it is upwards of 4,000 PSI with a flow rate of 18 GPM. The force of the water can clean out pipes that measure from 1.5 to 18 inches in diameter and a length of 700 feet long.

What Can be Removed with Hydro Jetting?

Hydro jetting will remove scale build-up from hard water, sand, silt, grease, food particles, scale, sludge, and slime. The water also has the force needed to cut through roots or paper clogs.

What Does Hydro Jetting Cost?

Depending on where you live, hydro jetting can cost from $900 to $2,500 depending on application (Note: A access cleanout is required for this service). However, if you have a sewer drain clog then it can easily cost $1,000 or more to effectively clear out the drain of the obstruction.

When Do You Need Hydro Jetting?

Hydro jetting is the preferred method of cleaning a drain if the drain is structurally sound. It can effectively clear out a clog quicker and with greater efficiency than old-fashioned snaking.

The tech that came, felt he wasn't 100 percent sure on resetting the controller. He called for assistance and he supervisor told him how reset the controller. 15 minutes all done. Clean work. And the heater has been acting good. I trust these guys because they're willing to go the extra mile.

Our tech was clean and communicated everything about our electrical issue. First thing he did when we opened our front door was slip on some little paper boot covers for use inside the house. Thank you Conejo Services!

Kevin was really great! He tried to fix my existing garbage disposal, but unfortunately it was too far gone. The prices that were quoted were more than I cared to spend. However, he was very understanding, professional, and courteous. Had the prices been reasonably close I wouldn’t have hesitated to have him do the work. He well represented your company.

The whole process from requesting service to getting a quote to actually having the services scheduled and done was super easy and quick. Customer service was great.

James came out to look at everything and was able to provide an itemized quote for the services we needed. We went with everything but one item on the list (make sure to communicate with them if you don't go for all of the items on the quote, there was a little bit of confusion about that between a couple of the different customer service reps we spoke to, but it was cleared up quickly).

Service was scheduled, James came back out with all the parts and equipment and installed everything really fast. He was super nice and informative (he kindly answered a couple additional and follow up questions that I had) and the service was professional and efficient.

We'll definitely be calling back for our other plumbing or HVAC needs. We felt that they were giving us reasonable and honest information and pricing. When compared to another service company that we've worked with before, the pricing was comparable but I don't think we could beat the kindness, care, and efficiency of Conejo's team.

My mom’s furnace was on the fritz this past Saturday after 1 session it died (RIP furnace 1/24/26). Juan Garay from Conejo Svcs was our tech who diagnosed that our furnace was installed back in 1983. It had a good run, 43 yrs!

The only gripe I have was that this wasn’t a free consultation, it was $87 for the visit and now we have a “Comfort Advisor” from their company this coming Tuesday. So this job is ongoing.

In hindsight, I should’ve gone with a company for a free consultation. However, I will be shopping around for best value for a complete replacement for my mom’s HVAC unit. I went with the most reputable company, however, that cost was $87 as I mentioned before.

Do your due diligence and shop around, don’t settle with 1 company!

We had a great experience. The team was friendly and wonderful to work with. They were able to get the job done quickly and without issue.

I would recommend them to anyone in their service area.

After recent rains, the lighting in our back yard stopped working. The GFCI would not reset. Omar did a great job. He gathered all the information he could and discussed the procedure he would use to trouble shoot and fix the issue and we discussed options and recommendations. He then followed the plan we agreed upon. He also recommended a whole house surge suppressor to bring the main panel up to current code. He did not use a high pressure sell on the suppressor and was fine with not installing one. We did decide to go ahead and get one installed. He was knowledgeable and friendly and was willing to discuss and explain what ever we asked about.

I have had both HVAC and Electricians to our home to give estimates. All were professional with great communication skills and knowledge.

Dan came to fix our heating filament and install an iWave. Like everyone I have interacted with he was informative and easy to work with.
I am Very satisfied with the responsiveness and prefissionalism.

I can't say enough good things about Conejo Services. We called them to get a second opinion on a major plumbing issue. Jimmy came out and put a camera though the various lines involved and gave us his opinion, taking the time to explain the issues and the pros and cons of the options we had. He was professional, courteous, and a straight shooter. It's so hard to know what questions to ask when you are trying to care for your home, and Jimmy really made me feel like he wanted to help us make the best choice. While the repair was not cheap, I feel that it was fairly priced. At the end of the day, I am certain he saved us money and a great deal of stress: he put my mind at ease. And when you are trying to make the best decision about your biggest asset, that is truly priceless. After we came up with a game plan, he gave us a detailed quote that clearly stated the scope of work and didn't blink at guaranteeing it for 25 YEARS. Christa at the office called and scheduled our work and was super friendly. The crew was beyond courteous and conscientious and worked their butts off. The actual plumbing work was top notch. In addition, they had to dig up a portion of the yard where there were plants, and they did a very careful job of making sure the plants weren't harmed and put them back perfectly. We are so happy with the whole experience and highly recommend them. Will use them again in a heartbeat!

Great technicians! Though IMO overpriced. I joined the Platinum Level Preferred Maintenance Club, to save on dispatching on routine items and get great deals on maintenance routines on HVAC, tankless water heater, water and plumbing. Needed a 30 year old wall shower faucet replaced when I signed up, the job was well done, but the cost was exoberant, imo, and I did not recieve a discount on the repair as I missed the fine print and was not told that when I signed, I needed to be a club member for a consectutive 5 months to obtain those repair discounts. I did ask at least twice to get a call to manager, was told the message was forwarded to the office, no response. Now 5 months later had a Heater Maintenance and Dryer Vent cleaning, Eric was the specialist. Excellent service by Eric. However, I received an invoice that day for $200 for the vent cleaning even though that service is listed as part of the PMC at Platinum level. I called CSHPE customer service and was told they would handle it and to ignore the invoice. Three days later, I got the same invoice, again I called, same advice. Got another invoice yesterday. I have not received one today, but it is still early AM. 🤨 Bottom line, good technical work but undermined by pricing perception, membership benefit confusion/misapplication, and unresolved billing/communication problems.

George was awesome! He called and let us know he could come sooner but, made sure that was okay with our schedule. He went above and beyond explaining the issue and made sure all was okay to make sure that issue did occur again. He asked if we were okay with the explanation and if we had any other questions or issues to reach out. Excellent service!

Owen was my electric tech,
and from the conversation over a couple of electrical issues here, I understood quickly that Owen knows the line of work very well: educated, smart, polite, with down the the earth professional demineur... He checked the wiring, and explained the possibilities why my appliance keeps tripping the breaker..
Thank you Owen.
The company has a right set up. They would also remind you about the appointment, and would convinietly call you a few minutes ahead.

They have the right codes... they won't walk in their shoes on your floors either...
I strongly recommend the Conejo company for your electrical issues...

When our 31 year-old furnace suddenly stopped working, they were out within 24 hours of my call. It was a quick and easy replacement part, but something we wouldn’t dare do ourselves. It’s good to know we’ve found a reliable repair service!

Benefits of Hydro Jetting

Hydro jetting plumbing has revolutionized drain cleaning.

The benefits of hydro jetting include:

Safe: Having a home re-plumbed is an expensive process so you want to ensure that whatever drain cleaning method you use does not harm your pipes. Hydro jetting clears away the debris and does not typically damage modern plumbing systems. The process can actually help ensure that your drains continue draining. In addition, hydro drain cleaning can increase the lifespan of your pipes and ensure that your home’s plumbing system functions more efficiently.
Eco-friendly (no harsh chemicals): Store-bought drain cleaners might clear away paper or hair clogs in your drains, but the chemicals are caustic and can eventually eat away at your pipes. With continued use, people can sustain damage from the chemicals. Luckily, hydro jetting is 100 percent chemical-free.
Quick: A plumber can typically clear a clog in less than an hour using hydro jetting. You will not have to cope with any downtime.
Long-lasting Results: Helps prevent future clogs by removing debris buildup.
Effective: Hydro jetting is far more effective than snaking and renders long-term results, so you do not have to worry about having a plumber return to your home to unclog the drain in the near future.

Hydro Jetting vs. Snaking: Which Draining Cleaning Process is Best?

Snaking a drain is a drain cleaning process that has been used for centuries to remove obstructions from plumbing. However, snaking does not always remove the complete obstruction which will lead to further problems at a later date. Snaking might seem initially cheaper but if the problem is not solved then the plumber will have to return at a later date, and you will incur additional fees to again unclog the pipe.

Risks of Hydro Jetting

In some cases, older plumbing cannot withstand the force of hydro jetting, so snaking is your only option. However, if your home has modern pipes then there should be no problem with using hydro to effectively clean the pipes instead of snaking.

History of Hydro Jetting

Many people mistakenly believe that hydro jetting is a new invention, but it has actually been around since the 1930s. In the mid-1800s, engineers started to use high-pressure water for mining erosion projects which spurred the development of harnessing narrow jets of water in the 1930s which were then used effectively for cutting.

A Wisconsin paper company developed a machine that had the capability of diagonally moving low-pressure water jets to cut through sheets of paper. When the 1950s arrived, a Luxembourg engineer developed a high-pressure water jet that could cut plastic. Aviation engineers took things a step further by developing a 100,000-psi pump. Throughout the 1960s and 1950s, refinements would take place which would lead to a nozzle head to direct the water jet even more precisely.

Throughout the 1960s and 70s, other individuals would make additional refinements, most of which involved the nozzle head which was further customized to work with the waterjet. Newer machines were able to cut through a variety of materials including stone, glass and wood and do so with increasing precision. Nowadays, the water jet has been honed to perfection and can safely be used to clean out pipes by skilled plumbers.

FAQs: Hydro Jetting

Below are a few frequently asked questions concerning hydro jetting.

Is Hydro Jetting Worth It?

Hydro jetting is extremely beneficial to homeowners and for commercial plumbing. You will avoid needing to have your drain regularly snaked which ultimately saves you money. The hydro removes drain debris and can improve the function of older plumbing. When used correctly, hydro jetting has the ability to improve the function of old plumbing lines by removing silt and sand that chemical cleaners and augers fail at flushing.

How Exactly Does Hydro Jetting Work?

The hydro jet is inserted into the sewer line via the cleanout. The plumber then uses the hydro jet to spray a powerful stream of water that relies on gravity to push the debris or clog in a downstream motion to clear the drain’s pathway.

When is the Best Time to Use a Hydro Jet?

When your jet is clogged, your first line of defense is to call a professional plumber who you can trust. Some plumbers might use a snake first and then try hydro jetting, but others will use hydro as their go-to solution. However, if the plumber suspects roots are the culprit, then they might opt for the hydro jet to effectively cut through the clog. Most professional plumbers consider hydro jetting the most effective option for cleaning out a clogged drain.

Can You Use Hydro Jetting for Maintenance?

Yes, hydro jetting is an effective solution to cleaning out drains and maintaining them by effectively removing build-up and scale, especially in areas with hard water.

Will Hydro Jetting Damage My Drains?

Hydro jetting is typically considered safe, especially for homes that have plastic drains that are sturdy and can withstand the pressure of the water’s blast. Cast iron pipes often develop a significant amount of corrosion and hydro jetting can actually cause more problems with such pipes. However, modern pipes can easily handle hydro jetting and even benefit from it as a regular maintenance option to clear away debris.

Many homeowners worry that the water will cut through plastic pipes, but the jetted water will not cut through the pimples and will instead cleanse them effectively.
