Pipe and Drain Water Jetting Services in Louisville

“Junk” in your sewer and drain lines is the main cause of drain line blockages. Blockages in a plumbing system or sewer lines can lead to clogged drains and, worse, a contaminated water supply. Hydrojetting is one possible solution. If you’re noticing recurring clogs in your home’s plumbing system, it’s time to call an experienced Louisville sewer and drain plumber to the scene. In many cases, clogged drains and problems with water pressure indicate more serious problems inside the plumbing pipes. An expert plumber should know the best course of action to take and when to implement hydrojetting as a solution. A regular sewer maintenance program that includes water jetting can help avoid any unexpected sewer backups.

When done correctly, hydrojetting is a proven and effective method of restoring your pipes to their original condition. Not only does hydrojetting blow out clogs, but it effectively cuts through roots and exposes root penetration. Wastewater will drain and flow correctly, preventing new debris buildup and more clogging. Clean pipes will expose any leaking pipes, which will allow your plumber to take corrective action to repair them. In the long run, this entire process will keep your drains running correctly for a long time. Call Jarboe’s today to schedule a water jetting service.

Hydrojetting is the process of using a high-pressure flow of water to scour the interior surfaces of the plumbing pipes, removing scale, grease, and other debris that’s built up inside the pipe walls over time. As opposed to rodding, where a plumber uses a tool to power a hole through the buildup, hydrojetting achieves a comprehensive cleaning of the pipes.

As you know, water under pressure is extremely powerful, so powerful that under the right conditions, a water jet can cut through steel and aluminum. Using a state-of-the-art pressure unit, we can pressurize ordinary water, controlling and propelling it under high pressure into your drain or sewer line.

Since we use ordinary water under pressure, hydrojetting is environmentally safe and economical. Because we can use different nozzles and attachments, we not only control the cleaning process, but we can also direct the powerful streams of water to cut through the toughest blockages. By varying the water pressure and the volume of water we’re using, we’re able to clean your sewer or drain line to “like new” condition.

In most cases, hydrojetting is a safe way to remove blockages that cause clogging. However, it is possible to cause further problems if a novice plumber employs hydrojetting in the sewer lines when tree-root penetration is significant. Always work with a plumber who will visually inspect the indoor plumbing system and the sewer lines using video camera equipment to assess the root of the problem before implementing any solution. If tree root infiltration has led to pipe damage or compromised the pipe’s waterproof coating, hydrojetting will not solve the problem and can even lead to more problems, such as causing infiltration of rocks and soil through perforated septic lines. The plumber should also use video inspection after cleaning out plumbing pipes to assess the effectiveness of the hydrojetting and the general condition of the pipes.
