Hydro Jetting in Maplewood
A cable machine pokes a hole through a clog. Hydro jetting removes the clog’s home. That difference matters in Maplewood, where we meet the same lines backing up every few months because grease or roots were drilled through instead of washed away. Jetting sends water down the pipe at up to 4,000 PSI through a nozzle that scours the wall back to bare pipe.
Two Kinds of Pipe, Two Jobs
The parkway subdivisions give us long, shallow kitchen and laundry runs where grease settles in the flat sections year after year, and jetting strips that buildup out in one pass. The older streets near the town center are a different patient. Their clay and cast iron laterals carry root mats and decades of scale, so we run a sewer camera inspection first, because a pipe that is already cracked needs repair, not pressure.
Jetting also earns its keep after a rooter service cuts heavy roots, since a scoured wall slows regrowth, and it is the required prep before any sewer lining work. How the equipment works, and what it costs, is on our hydro jetting page. The rest of our local work is collected on the Maplewood page.
