Hydro Jetting in Las Vegas
When a snake only pokes a hole through the clog, hydro jetting scrubs the pipe wall clean — clearing years of grease, scale, sludge, and even tree roots so your drains flow like new.
What is hydro jetting?
Hydro jetting is a professional drain-cleaning method that uses water pressurized up to 4,000 PSI, delivered through a specialized nozzle, to blast the inside of your pipes completely clean.
A traditional drain snake works by punching through a clog — it breaks a hole in the blockage so water can trickle past, but it leaves the buildup coating the pipe walls behind. That's why snaked drains so often clog again within weeks. Hydro jetting is different: the high-pressure stream scours the entire inner diameter of the pipe, flushing grease, soap scum, mineral scale, and debris all the way out to the main line. You're not just clearing the clog — you're restoring the pipe to nearly its original capacity.
Signs you may need hydro jetting
- Drains that clog again and again, even after snaking
- Multiple fixtures backing up at the same time
- Gurgling toilets or slow drains throughout the house
- Foul sewer odors from drains or the yard
- Grease-heavy kitchen lines in a home or restaurant
- Recurring tree-root intrusion in older sewer lines
Why hydro jetting matters in Las Vegas
Las Vegas sits on some of the hardest water in the country, and those dissolved minerals build up as scale inside your drain and sewer lines, narrowing the pipe and giving grease something to cling to. Combine that with decades-old cast-iron and clay sewer lines in many valley neighborhoods, plus thirsty tree roots hunting for moisture in our desert soil, and you have the perfect recipe for stubborn, recurring blockages. Hydro jetting cuts through mineral scale and root masses that a cable machine simply can't touch.
Our hydro jetting process
- Camera inspection first. We find the blockage, confirm the pipe is sound enough to jet, and rule out a collapse or break.
- Match pressure to the pipe. We dial in the right PSI and nozzle — a kitchen branch and a commercial main need very different settings.
- Jet the line clean. The nozzle pulls itself through the pipe, cutting the clog and power-washing the walls from the far end back.
- Verify with a second camera pass. We show you the before-and-after so you know the pipe is actually clear.

Hydro Jetting FAQ
How much does hydro jetting cost in Las Vegas?
It depends on the size and length of the line and how severe the buildup is. Because we camera-inspect first, we give you a clear, upfront price before any work begins. Call 725-212-7505 for a free estimate.
How often should I have my lines jetted?
For a typical home, once every 18–24 months keeps you ahead of buildup. Restaurants and commercial kitchens with heavy grease often benefit from jetting every 3–6 months.
Will hydro jetting damage older pipes?
Not when it's done right. We inspect the line on camera first and adjust pressure to the pipe's condition. If a line is too fragile to jet safely, we'll recommend a repair instead.
Can hydro jetting really remove tree roots?
Yes. A root-cutting nozzle shears roots off at the pipe wall and flushes them out, and we camera-inspect to find where they're getting in so you can plan a permanent fix.
