If your drains are slow, clogged, or smelly, you may be past the point of plungers and chemicals. You need high-pressure hydro jetting, a powerful and professional solution that only qualified experts should handle.
At John Padilla Plumbing, we’re proud to be San Diego’s drain professionals, trusted by homeowners and businesses alike to clear even the toughest blockages with precision and care.
What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting is an advanced plumbing technique that uses high-pressure water streams to scour the inside of pipes. Unlike traditional methods, it doesn’t just punch a hole through the clog; it completely clears out debris, grease, sludge, and even tree roots from your drain lines.
This method relies on specialized drain jetting machines and custom nozzles that blast water at pressures ranging from 1,500 to 4,000 PSI.
The result? Spotless pipes, fully restored flow, and fewer plumbing problems in the future.
Hydro Jetting vs. Snaking
Snaking uses mechanical tools to dislodge a clog. It’s effective for minor blockages in the kitchen or bathroom drains. But when the issue is deeper, bigger, or recurring, hydro jetting is the superior option.
Why choose hydro jetting?
- Clears years of buildup in one visit
- Removes tree root intrusions
- Restores full pipe diameter
- Provides longer-lasting results
- Cleans and disinfects the pipe walls
Hydro jetting is more than just clog removal; it’s complete pipe restoration.
Signs You Need a Hydro Jet Service
You may not always see the clog, but the symptoms are obvious. If you’re dealing with:
- Slow drains or standing water
- Frequent clogs despite DIY fixes
- Foul odors coming from your sink or shower drains
- Backups in multiple drains at once
…it’s time to call John Padilla Plumbing for a sewer jetter service.
How Often Should You Hydro Jet?
We recommend hydro jetting your main line every 6–12 months as part of your plumbing maintenance plan.
For high-usage households, businesses, or homes with older pipes, regular hydro jetting services can save thousands in emergency repairs by preventing major blockages before they form.
