You’ve likely encountered drain issues such as slow-moving drainage or blocked drains that impact everyone in the home. With the latest data showing water damage currently accounts for almost half of all Canadian insurance claims, it’s time to consider a proactive approach to protecting your home plumbing. 

Hydro jetting is a proven solution to these common household plumbing problems. Hydro-jetting involves directing a powerful stream of water through home plumbing structures to remove debris and restore optimal water flow.

Let’s delve into hydro jetting and explain more about the unique benefits of the hydro jetting services for Victoria families.

Versatility

The hydro jetting process brings versatility to drain cleaning and is suitable for most plumbing materials and structures. Whether your home uses plastic, steel, or clay pipes, hydro jetting can remove debris and restore water flow throughout the property. The versatility of hydro jetting tools also means the service is ideal for residential and commercial buildings with unique drainage performance demands.

Removes Harmful Bacteria

Have you noticed an odour from your home pipes? This odour can impact the entire home and is a clear sign that you have bacterial build-up within the pipe structure. The bacterial growth stems from flushing black water from toilets and may cause water quality issues over time. Fortunately, hydro jetting services can remove bacteria from the pipe interior and help protect your home’s drinking water quality.

Lowers Drain Cleaning Costs

Hydro jetting is highly affordable compared with the cost of complex sewer cleaning, which often involves excavation work to target specific areas of the sewer structure. The power of the jets and the control the plumbers have in their targeting ensure they can reach deep into the sewer system and remove debris that may be causing clogs or water quality issues. Beyond reducing drain cleaning costs, this also decreases the time plumbers have to be on-site, thereby minimizing the total impact of the work on your family home.

Cleans the Entire Diameter of the Pipe

While other drain cleaning methods can remove debris from the pipe interior, only hydro jetting can clean the entire pipe interior and eliminate all blockages. The pressurized water stream can break rocks and tree roots, helping further protect the structural integrity of the plumbing system.

It’s Environmentally-Friendly

The latest data on environmentally-friendly choices by consumers shows that most homeowners consider the impact on the environment when making their product or service choices. Hydro jetting is one of the most eco-friendly ways to clean home drains, as it doesn’t require additional chemicals or additives. Plumbers will only use specialized machinery and high-pressure water jets, protecting your home’s drinking water and limiting the impact on local water resources. 

What are the Most Common Applications for Hydro Jetting?

Hydro jetting is suitable for most drain cleaning and drain repair requirements, but is particularly beneficial in the following applications:

Restaurants

With grease, oils, and fats making their way into the sewer system through sinks and pipe connections, restaurants face several plumbing issues, including total blockages and slow draining, which can interrupt business. Hydro jetting is the best technique to remove grease and fats with one comprehensive service.

Older Homes

If you own an older home or commercial building, there are likely decades of built-up debris on the sewer pipe walls. Building managers can restore water flow within their older properties by using hydro jetting services for a superior clean.

Removing Tree Roots in Residential Plumbing

When tree roots enter residential plumbing structures, they block water flow and can cause costly damage to home pipes. Hydro jetting is one of the most effective techniques for cutting through roots and eliminating the remaining fragments.
