What is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jet drain cleaning uses highly pressurized water to remove buildup from inside drain lines. Unlike methods that primarily create an opening through a blockage, hydro jetting can clean material from the interior walls of an appropriate pipe.
​
Depending on the condition of the plumbing, hydro jetting may be effective for grease, sludge, scale, debris, and certain root intrusions that contribute to recurring drain problems.
​
Because high-pressure water isn't appropriate for every pipe, the condition of the plumbing should be considered before hydro jetting is performed.
​
ATP Plumbing and Drain offers professional hydro jetting services throughout New Orleans, Metairie, Kenner, Slidell, Covington, Mandeville, and surrounding communities.
​
Whether you're dealing with recurring drain clogs, slow-moving drains, grease buildup, or sewer line issues, hydro jetting is one of the most effective drain cleaning methods available.
Hydro Jetting for Sewer Lines
Hydro jetting can also be used to clean certain main drain and sewer lines affected by substantial buildup.
​
Recurring backups, multiple slow drains, gurgling fixtures, or repeated sewer line clogs may indicate a problem farther down the plumbing system. When buildup is contributing to the problem and the pipe is suitable for high-pressure cleaning, sewer line hydro jetting can provide a more thorough cleaning than simply opening the immediate blockage.
​
Many sewer line problems are caused by buildup that develops over time. Hydro jetting can effectively remove:
​
-
Tree roots
-
Grease deposits
-
Soap scum
-
Mineral buildup
-
Food waste
-
Paper products
-
Organic debris
Before performing hydro jetting, our plumbers may recommend a sewer camera inspection to evaluate the condition of your pipes and identify the source of the blockage.
​
ATP can evaluate the problem and determine whether hydro jetting, traditional drain cleaning, sewer repair, or another solution is appropriate.

Hydro Jetting vs. Traditional Drain Cleaning
Not every clogged drain needs hydro jetting.
​
Traditional drain cleaning is appropriate for many common and localized clogs. Hydro jetting may be recommended when grease, sludge, roots, or other buildup has accumulated along the inside of a drain or sewer line, particularly when problems keep returning.
​
ATP Plumbing & Drain can evaluate the blockage and recommend the appropriate cleaning method based on what's actually happening inside the plumbing system.

Benefits of Hydro Jetting
Hydro jetting offers several advantages over traditional drain cleaning methods:
​
Thorough Pipe Cleaning
Hydro jetting removes buildup from the entire interior surface of the pipe rather than simply creating a hole through the blockage.
Long-Lasting Results
Because the pipe walls are cleaned more completely, hydro jetting helps reduce the likelihood of future clogs.
Environmentally Friendly
Hydro jetting relies on water pressure instead of harsh chemicals to clean drains and sewer lines.
Effective for Residential & Commercial Properties
Hydro jetting is ideal for homes, restaurants, apartment complexes, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities.
Removes Tough Blockages
Grease, sludge, mineral deposits, roots, and years of accumulated debris can often be cleared with hydro jetting.​​

Hydro Jetting FAQs
What is hydro jetting?
Hydro jetting is a professional drain and sewer cleaning method that uses highly pressurized water to remove grease, sludge, roots, and debris from inside pipes. It is one of the most effective ways to thoroughly clean plumbing and sewer lines.
​
Is hydro jetting safe for my pipes?
In most cases, yes. Before performing hydro jetting, ATP Plumbing and Drain evaluates the condition of your plumbing system. Older or damaged pipes may require inspection first to ensure hydro jetting is appropriate.
​
How is hydro jetting different from drain snaking?
Drain snaking typically creates a path through a blockage, while hydro jetting cleans the entire interior of the pipe. This results in a more thorough cleaning and helps prevent future clogs.
​
Can hydro jetting remove tree roots?
Yes. Hydro jetting can often cut through and remove small to moderate tree root intrusions inside sewer lines. In some cases, additional repairs may be recommended if roots have caused pipe damage.
​
How often should hydro jetting be performed?
For most residential properties, hydro jetting is only needed when significant buildup or recurring clogs occur. Commercial properties, especially restaurants, may benefit from scheduled hydro jetting maintenance.
​
Do I need a camera inspection before hydro jetting?
Not always, but a sewer camera inspection is often recommended for recurring sewer problems. It helps identify the cause of the blockage and ensures the pipe is suitable for hydro jetting.
