Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full diameter of the pipe, removing grease, sludge, scale and fine roots that cabling alone can leave behind. It is an effective way to restore lines that block repeatedly.
- Thorough cleaning of the entire pipe wall
- Longer intervals between service calls
- Chemical-free cleaning method
Overview
Hydro-jetting cleans a pipe with a high-pressure stream of water delivered through a specialised nozzle. Rear-facing jets pull the hose forward while scouring the full circumference of the pipe wall.
Unlike a cable, which punches a hole through a blockage, jetting removes grease, sludge, scale and fine roots along the whole line — which is why it's the go-to for lines that keep clogging.
No clear, no clearing charge
On eligible standard blockages.
Spot Problems Early
Problems build up gradually. Watch for these warning signs before a small issue becomes a backup.
Repeat clogs after snaking
The cable opened a path, but the build-up is still there.
Greasy kitchen lines
Restaurants and busy home kitchens build up fat fast.
Sludge or scale
Older pipes narrowed by sediment and minerals.
Slow main line
The whole house drains sluggishly even when nothing's fully blocked.
Pre-inspection cleaning
A clean pipe gives a much clearer camera picture.
Odours from drains
Decomposing build-up inside the line.
Root Causes
Understanding the cause is how we stop a problem from coming back — not just clear it for today.
01Fats, oils & grease
The number-one cause of kitchen and restaurant line problems.
02Soap & detergent residue
Builds a sticky film that traps debris.
03Mineral scale
Hard water leaves deposits that shrink pipe diameter.
04Fine root growth
Small root hairs that cabling alone leaves behind.

Our Process
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full diameter of the pipe, removing grease, sludge, scale and fine roots that cabling alone can leave behind. It is an effective way to restore lines that block repeatedly.
Inspect
We confirm pipe condition first so jetting is used where it is appropriate.
Jet

When it's matched to the pipe material and condition, yes. That's why we often inspect first — so pressure and nozzles suit the line.
A snake punches a path through a blockage. Jetting scours the full diameter of the pipe, removing grease and scale that cause repeat clogs.
It depends on volume and menu. We recommend an interval after the first cleaning based on how much build-up we find.
