Our Toronto & GTA hydro jetting services
From residential kitchens to large commercial properties, we tailor every job based on your plumbing system, pipe material, and drainage issue. When you book hydro jetting with us, here’s exactly what we provide:
Pre-Jetting Camera Inspection
We begin every hydro jetting service with a high-definition camera inspection to identify the exact blockage and assess the condition of your drain pipes and plumbing system.
Custom Nozzle Selection
Our team selects specialized nozzles based on what we’re dealing with: grease, tree roots, mineral buildup, or compacted debris, to ensure an efficient clean tailored to your drainage system.
Pressure-Calibrated Hydro Jetting Process
We use high-pressure water jets, calibrated up to 4,000 PSI, carefully adjusted for residential and commercial properties to ensure safe and effective cleaning without damaging your pipes.
Full-Pipe Wall Cleaning
Unlike basic snaking, hydro jetting scrubs the entire pipe wall clean, removing not just the clog, but also the residue that causes recurring drain issues and future backups.
Backed-Up Toilets or Basement Flooding
After your line is cleared, we conduct a second camera inspection to confirm complete clearance and present the results to you. You can view the results yourself.
What our customers have to say
Hydro jetting vs. snaking:
what’s the difference?
Still wondering if you need drain snaking or hydro jetting? Let’s break it down:
Snaking
Best for: Soft clogs near the fixture
What it does: Clears a path but leaves grease and scale behind
Limitations: Doesn’t clean pipe walls or address recurring issues
Hydro jetting
Best for: Grease, roots, sludge, and slow drainage
What it does: Uses high-pressure water jets to clean entire pipes
Advantages: More effective for preventing future blockages
Our process: how hydro jetting works
We don’t start immediately with extreme pressure. Most jobs are completed within 1 to 2 hours, leaving your lines flowing like new. Every hydro jetting plumber on our team follows a tested process:
Inspect the drain with a high-resolution camera
Match the nozzle and high-pressure hose to the blockage type
Perform drain jetting using commercial-grade water jetting equipment
Re-scope the line to confirm full clearance

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does hydro jetting cost?
Most residential jobs range from $300 to $600, depending on access, length of pipe, and the severity of the blockage. We’ll provide a clear estimate after inspecting the line.
How long does the process take?
On average, 1 to 2 hours, including pre-inspection and post-cleaning camera verification. Larger commercial systems may take longer, but we’ll give you a timeline upfront.
How often should I schedule hydro jetting?
For residential homes, once every 1–2 years is typically enough, especially if you’ve had clogs before. Commercial kitchens often benefit from quarterly or bi-annual service to stay compliant and avoid downtime.
Do you use a camera before and after jetting?
Yes. We scope the line before starting and again after we’re done, so both you and our techs can see the results.
Can hydro jetting remove tree roots?
Absolutely. We use specialized jetting nozzles that cut through tree roots, then flush them out. For aggressive root growth, we may recommend routine maintenance to prevent regrowth.
Will I need to vacate my property during service?
Not at all. The process is clean, contained, and safe. You can stay home, and many clients don’t even notice we’re working.
Is hydro jetting safe for old pipes?
Yes, if the pipe is structurally sound. We inspect first to ensure there’s no risk. If jetting isn’t appropriate, we’ll recommend an alternative like snaking or repair.
Can you provide hydro jetting for businesses after hours?
Yes. We regularly schedule jetting after hours or early morning to avoid disrupting your operations. We’re also available 24/7 for emergencies.
How much pressure is used in hydro jetting?
Our equipment ranges from 1,500 to 4,000 PSI, depending on the job. We adjust the pressure based on pipe size, material, and blockage type, never more than what’s safe.
Can hydro jetting fix slow drains permanently?
In many cases, yes, especially when the issue is caused by grease buildup, scale, or debris. If there’s pipe damage or root intrusion, we’ll recommend a long-term repair.
