Hydro Jetting Services
High-pressure water jetting to clear stubborn clogs, grease buildup, and scale from commercial drain lines. Powerful, thorough, and chemical-free — the professional solution for tough blockages.
The Basics
The Professional Solution for Tough Drain Problems
When a snake or auger is not enough, hydro jetting delivers the cleaning power commercial drain lines need. Our high-pressure water jetting systems blast through years of accumulated grease, sludge, scale, and debris — scouring pipe walls clean and restoring full flow capacity. Unlike mechanical snaking, which only pokes a hole through the clog, hydro jetting cleans the entire pipe interior diameter. This means longer-lasting results and fewer callbacks. Southwaste uses commercial-grade jetting equipment capable of pressures up to 4,000 PSI, with specialized nozzles for different pipe sizes and blockage types. We handle everything from kitchen drain lines and grease trap laterals to main sewer lines and storm drains.

Got Questions?
Hydro Jetting FAQ
Common questions about commercial hydro jetting services.
What Is Hydro-Jetting?
High-pressure water blasting was invented in the 1950s. It’s a motorized device that keeps a water supply under high pressure, and then sends it out a hose with a nozzle on the end of it. The high-pressure blasts of water scour the inside of the pipe, removing debris.
Whats the difference between hydro jetting and snaking?
You can learn more in our article on comparing Hydro-Jetting vs Traditional Methods.
Is hydro jetting safe for my pipes?
Yes, when performed by trained professionals. We inspect the line first (when accessible) to ensure the pipe is in suitable condition for hydro jetting. Our operators adjust pressure and nozzle selection based on pipe material, age, and condition. For very old, fragile, or damaged pipes, we may recommend alternative approaches.
How often should commercial drain lines be hydro jetted?
Can hydro jetting clear tree roots from sewer lines
Do you offer emergency hydro jetting?
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency hydro jetting for urgent drain line backups. Call (866) 413-9494 for immediate dispatch. Our nearest hub sends a truck with full hydro jetting capability for same-day response.
Will hydro jetting solve recurring drain backups?
In most cases, yes. Recurring backups usually indicate that previous snaking only cleared a temporary path through accumulated buildup. Hydro jetting removes that buildup entirely, addressing the root cause. We also identify any structural issues during inspection that may require additional repair.
