When your drains back up repeatedly, you need more than another temporary fix. Sewer jetting blasts away grease, debris, and tree roots at pressures over 3,000 PSI, scrubbing your pipes clean from the inside out.
Unlike snaking that just pokes holes through clogs, hydro jetting removes the buildup clinging to your pipe walls. That means fewer emergency calls, no more slow drains, and actual peace of mind knowing your system can handle whatever you put through it.
You get back to your routine without wondering when the next backup will hit. Your property stays protected, and you avoid the mess and expense of sewage emergencies that always seem to happen at the worst possible time.
AAA Dependable Cesspool has been solving Middle Island’s toughest sewer problems since 1998. Three generations of family ownership means we understand Long Island soil conditions and local regulations better than companies that show up from three towns over.
Over 325 five-star reviews don’t happen by accident. We earn trust by showing up when promised, explaining what’s actually wrong, and fixing it right the first time. No surprise charges, no overselling services you don’t need.
Our Suffolk County license, full insurance, and Home Advisor Elite status back up what neighbors already know: when your sewer system fails, we’re the people who get it working again.
First, we inspect your system with video cameras to locate the problem and check pipe condition. This isn’t just good practice – it ensures hydro jetting won’t damage older pipes that might need gentler treatment.
Next comes the actual jetting. A specialized nozzle connected to high-pressure equipment sends water through your pipes at up to 4,000 PSI. The forward-facing jets blast through clogs while backward-facing jets propel the equipment through your system, scrubbing every inch clean.
After cleaning, we run a final inspection to confirm everything flows properly. You see the results immediately – water drains fast, odors disappear, and your system works like it should have all along.

Sewer jetting handles what traditional methods can’t touch. Grease buildup from kitchen drains, tree roots that have invaded your lines, mineral deposits, and years of accumulated debris all get blasted away completely.
Middle Island properties face specific challenges – sandy soil that shifts, mature trees whose roots seek out sewer lines, and older systems that need careful handling. Local experience matters when high-pressure water is involved, especially with the soil conditions you deal with here.
Our service includes pre-inspection, complete line cleaning, and post-service testing. You get documentation of what was found and removed, plus practical recommendations for preventing future problems. Regular maintenance keeps your system running smoothly and saves money on emergency repairs.
Sewer jetting typically costs between $300 and $600 for residential properties, depending on the severity of the clog and accessibility of your lines. Yes, it’s more expensive than simple snaking, but it provides much longer-lasting results.
The investment pays off because hydro jetting removes all the buildup that causes recurring clogs. Instead of calling for service every few months, most homeowners can go years between cleanings. Emergency calls and property damage from backups cost far more than preventive maintenance.
We provide upfront pricing with no surprise charges. We’ll inspect your system first and explain exactly what needs to be done before starting any work.
Hydro jetting is significantly more effective than snaking for thorough pipe cleaning. While snaking just pokes holes through clogs or pulls them out, hydro jetting scrubs the entire pipe diameter clean, removing grease, scale, and debris that snaking leaves behind.
Think of snaking as temporary relief and hydro jetting as a complete solution. If you’re dealing with recurring clogs, slow drains, or haven’t had your lines cleaned in years, hydro jetting addresses the root cause instead of just the symptoms.
However, very old or damaged pipes might need gentler treatment. That’s why professional inspection comes first – to determine which method is safest and most effective for your specific situation.
Most residential properties benefit from hydro jetting every 1-2 years as preventive maintenance. If you have large trees near your sewer lines, a garbage disposal, or frequently experience slow drains, annual service makes sense.
Commercial properties, especially restaurants, need more frequent cleaning – typically every 3-6 months due to grease and food waste buildup. The frequency depends on usage patterns and what goes down your drains.
Regular maintenance costs less than emergency repairs and prevents the inconvenience of backups. We can assess your specific situation and recommend the right schedule based on your property’s needs and usage patterns.
When performed by experienced professionals, hydro jetting is safe for most pipe materials including PVC, cast iron, and clay. The key is proper pressure settings and pre-inspection to identify any existing damage or weak spots.
Very old pipes, those with existing cracks, or certain fragile materials might require gentler cleaning methods. That’s why we always inspect with video cameras before hydro jetting – to ensure your pipes can handle the pressure safely.
Professional equipment allows precise pressure control based on your pipe material and condition. DIY hydro jetting equipment lacks these safety features and can cause serious damage, which is why this service should always be left to licensed professionals.
Multiple drains backing up simultaneously is the clearest sign of main sewer line problems that need professional attention. Other warning signs include gurgling sounds from drains, sewage odors, or water backing up in basement floor drains.
If you’ve had your lines snaked repeatedly but clogs keep returning, that indicates buildup on pipe walls that only hydro jetting can remove. Slow-draining sinks, tubs, or toilets throughout your home also suggest main line restrictions.
Don’t wait for a complete backup – these problems only get worse. Early intervention with hydro jetting prevents emergency situations, property damage, and the much higher costs that come with sewage cleanup and restoration.
Yes, we provide 24-hour emergency sewer jetting services throughout Middle Island and Suffolk County. Sewage backups don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we.
Our emergency response includes rapid diagnosis, immediate action to stop the backup, and complete system cleaning to prevent recurrence. We arrive equipped with all necessary equipment, including video inspection cameras and high-pressure jetting equipment.
Emergency service costs more than scheduled maintenance, but we provide upfront pricing even in urgent situations. Our goal is getting your system working again quickly while explaining what caused the problem and how to prevent it from happening again.
