A clogged drain is one of those problems that no one wants to deal with - but almost everyone runs into. Whether it’s in your kitchen sink, bathroom shower, or main sewer line, a blockage can slow things down fast. And if you don’t handle it the right way, it could lead to much bigger issues like leaks, bursts, or even wastewater backing up into your home.
There are plenty of ways people try to handle clogs. Some reach for the plunger or drain snake and give it a go themselves. Others pour in store-bought chemical cleaners or try baking soda and vinegar. While these quick fixes may seem to work at first, they usually don’t clear the whole problem. That’s where hydro jetting comes in.
At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, we offer powerful and safe hydro jetting service in Deerfield Beach to wash your drains clean from the inside out. Not familiar with hydro jetting? Here’s what you need to know about blockages, why some methods fall short, and how our approach can give you long-lasting relief.
Clogs can form from all kinds of everyday things. Over time, your pipes collect grease, food scraps, soap, hair, and countless other debris. These materials stick to the inside of the pipe and build up - layer by layer. Sometimes, tree roots even grow into underground lines.
When the opening in your drain line narrows, it doesn’t take much time for water to stop flowing like it should. At first, you might notice your sink draining slower than usual. If the clog keeps building, then it can lead to full blockages, leaks, or pressure that bursts the pipe.
For homeowners, the damage can lead to mold, odors, and plumbing emergencies. For businesses - especially those with kitchens or high water use - these issues can disrupt operations, create expensive repairs, and even expose you to legal liability and fines.
It’s tempting to go for the fast fix when a drain starts acting up. Drain snakes and plungers can help punch a hole through the clog and give water a way out, but that doesn’t mean the problem is solved. The residue left on the pipe walls can still trap new debris and form another clog.
Chemical drain cleaners are another popular option, but they come with risks. Many of these products are harsh on your plumbing. Over time, the chemicals can eat away at your pipes. They’re also dangerous to handle and harmful to the environment. DIY fixes like vinegar and baking soda are gentler, but they’re not strong enough to break through thick grease, roots, or years of buildup.
Our hydro jetting in Deerfield Beach is a smarter and more complete way to clean your drains. Instead of using chemicals or brute force, it employs high-pressure water to scour away gunk from the entire pipe. So, how's it work?
One of our skilled plumbers will inspect your drains - with a small camera if necessary - to make sure hydro jetting is the right fit. Then, we'll insert a special nozzle into the drain line to blast through the blockage at pressures up to 4,000 PSI. This stream scrubs away grease, roots, scale, debris, and even tree roots from the inside of the pipe.
We adjust the pressure based on your pipe material and condition, so everything is done safely and correctly. Once we’re done, we test the system to make sure everything is flowing the way it should.
Hydro jetting is a cutting-edge approach to tackling the time-old problem of clogged drains, and many people are still unfamiliar with the method. If you have questions or concerns, or if you'd like to schedule an appointment, then call or message Mr. Rooter Plumbing to speak with or hire a trained plumber today.
