When cabling is not enough, high-pressure water scours your pipes back to bare walls — grease, scale, roots, and sludge, all gone.
Hydro jetting uses a specialized nozzle to send water through your pipes at very high pressure, cutting through grease, sludge, mineral scale, and root intrusion and flushing it all away. It cleans the full diameter of the pipe, not just a hole through the middle like a cable can leave.
A drain cable is great for breaking through a clog. But for lines caked with years of grease, packed with roots, or serving a busy commercial kitchen, jetting is what actually restores them to near-original flow. Bruce matches the pressure and nozzle to your pipe so it cleans hard without harming sound plumbing.
Bruce often runs a camera before and after so you can see the difference for yourself. That is the honest way to do it — you know exactly what was in there and exactly how clean the line is when he is finished.
Here is what makes jetting the heavy hitter for tough lines:
Water scours the entire pipe wall, removing buildup a cable just bores through — so flow is fully restored.
High pressure slices through fine root intrusion and flushes it out, buying you real time before roots return.
Commercial kitchens and grease-heavy lines are exactly what jetting is built for. It clears what cabling leaves behind.
A pipe scoured back to bare walls takes far longer to clog again than one with a hole poked through the sludge.
If your drains clog again a few weeks after every cabling, the pipe walls are almost certainly still coated. Jetting removes that coating so clogs stop coming back on a schedule.
Grease is jetting's specialty. In homes and especially in restaurants and commercial kitchens, hardened grease builds a thick lining that a cable simply slips through. High-pressure water shears it off the wall and flushes it downstream.
Jetting also clears roots, sand, scale, and general sludge from sewer and drain lines. Bruce will camera the line first — if the pipe is sound, jetting restores it. If the pipe is broken or collapsed, he tells you honestly that a repair is the right move instead.
A hydro jetting service from Bruce Bunch Plumbing includes:
For pipes in sound condition, yes. Bruce checks the line with a camera first and matches the water pressure to your plumbing. If a pipe is already cracked or badly deteriorated, he will tell you honestly and recommend a repair rather than jetting a failing line.
A cable or snake breaks through a clog and pulls or pushes it, often leaving the pipe walls still coated. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the entire inside of the pipe, removing the buildup itself. For grease and recurring clogs, jetting lasts much longer.
It cuts through and flushes out fine root intrusion very effectively. If roots are entering through a broken joint or cracked pipe, jetting buys you time, but Bruce may recommend a repair or replacement so the roots stop coming back for good.
Very much so. Grease-heavy commercial lines are exactly what jetting is built for. Regular jetting keeps kitchen drains flowing and helps you avoid a backup during service, which is far more costly than the cleaning.
Yes. Bruce runs a camera first so he knows what is in the line and whether the pipe can handle jetting. It is the honest way to do the job — no guessing, and you can see the before and after for yourself.
