What Is Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning?
Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure water jet to blast through blockages and flush debris from the inside of your drain pipes. Unlike a standard drain snake, which simply pokes a hole through a blockage, hydro jetting clears the entire pipe wall, removing grease, scale, sludge, tree roots and other build-up that accumulates over time.
The result is a thoroughly cleaned pipe that flows freely and is far less likely to block again in the near future.


When Do You Need Hydro Jet Cleaning?
Hydro jetting is suitable for a wide range of drainage problems, including:
- Recurring blocked drains that keep coming back
- Slow-draining sinks, showers or floor wastes
- Grease and fat build-up in kitchen drain lines
- Tree root intrusion in sewer or stormwater pipes
- Blocked stormwater drains after heavy rain
- Pre-relining preparation to clean the pipe before a liner is inserted
We service residential, commercial, industrial and strata properties throughout Sydney, Wollongong and Sutherland Shire.

Frequently Asked Questions
Hydro jet drain cleaning uses a high-pressure water jet to clear blockages and flush debris from inside your drain pipes. A specialised nozzle blasts water forward to break up the blockage and sprays backwards to flush the debris out, leaving the entire pipe wall clean rather than just poking a hole through the obstruction.
A drain snake pushes through a blockage to restore basic flow but leaves behind residue, grease and scale on the pipe walls. Hydro jetting clears the full diameter of the pipe, removing build-up from wall to wall. This means blockages are less likely to return quickly after the job is done.
Hydro jetting is effective against a wide range of blockages including grease and fat build-up, sludge, scale, tree roots, dirt and debris. It is suitable for blocked sewer pipes, stormwater drains, kitchen drain lines, floor wastes and more.
In most cases, yes. Before we begin any hydro jetting job, we conduct a CCTV pipe inspection to assess the condition of your pipes. This allows us to select the appropriate water pressure for the job and avoid any risk of damage to older or more fragile pipes.
Yes, always. We use a CCTV drain camera to inspect the pipe before we start. This tells us exactly where the blockage is, what is causing it, and what equipment and pressure settings are needed. It also helps us identify any underlying pipe damage that may need to be addressed separately.
Most hydro jetting jobs are completed within one to two hours, depending on the severity and location of the blockage. Larger or more complex jobs, such as clearing extensive root intrusion or cleaning long drain runs, may take longer. We will give you an honest time estimate before we begin.
Hydro jetting significantly reduces the likelihood of a recurring blockage by cleaning the pipe wall thoroughly rather than just clearing the immediate obstruction. However, if your pipes have structural issues such as cracks, root entry points or pipe offset, the blockage may return over time. In these cases, pipe relining may be recommended as a long-term solution.
