Hydro Jetting in Huntington Beach, CA

Plumbing Tips

What Hydro Jetting Handles in Huntington Beach

• Scaled cast iron in 1960s and ’70s homes — the crust that turns a four-inch line into a two-inch one

• Sediment in sagging laterals — the low spots that sandy soil creates and that collect everything

• Restaurant grease lines — scheduled cleaning that stays ahead of the backup, and emergency clearing when it does not

• Root intrusion — cut out, then the joint checked on camera

Is jetting safe for the original pipe in my house?

When the pipe is sound, yes, and a camera inspection first tells us whether it is. Pressure is set for the pipe in front of us. If the camera shows a crack, a collapse or a joint that has separated in the soft ground, jetting is not the fix, and we will tell you what is instead of selling you a cleaning that cannot last.

My drain was snaked last month and it is slow again. Why?

Because the cable opened a channel through the buildup and left the buildup in place, so the channel closed. That pattern — clear for a few weeks, then slow — is the signature of a coated line, and it is exactly the case jetting exists for.
