Question 1

What is hydro jetting?

Accepted Answer

Hydro-jetting is a plumbing method that uses high-pressure water jets to clean sewer lines and remove stubborn blockages like tree roots and mineral deposits. It cleans the entire circumference of the pipe, offering a more thorough cleaning than traditional methods.

Question 2

When should I consider a sewer camera inspection?

Accepted Answer

You should consider a sewer camera inspection if you experience repeated drainage problems, are buying a new home, or if your home is older and hasn't had an inspection in many years. It helps identify blockages, cracks, root intrusion, or other damages without invasive digging.

Question 3

How often should sewer lines be cleaned?

Accepted Answer

The frequency of sewer line cleaning depends on factors like pipe age, wastewater volume, and proximity to trees. Generally, cleaning every 18 to 22 months is recommended, but more frequent cleanings may be needed if you experience frequent clogs, bad odors, or slow drainage.

Question 4

Can I clean my sewer line myself?

Accepted Answer

While minor clogs can sometimes be resolved with household tools, professional sewer line cleaning is advisable for thorough cleaning. Professionals have specialized equipment like hydro jetters and sewer line cameras, and DIY attempts can risk damaging pipes or inadequately resolving the issue.
