Professional Hydro Jetting Brentwood

What Your Pipes Look Like After
Your drains flow like they’re supposed to. No more slow drainage, gurgling sounds, or that sinking feeling when you flush the toilet. Sewer jetting doesn’t just clear the immediate problem—it scrubs your pipes clean from the inside out. We’re talking about removing years of grease buildup, sand infiltration that’s common here on Long Island, and those stubborn tree roots that snake their way into even the smallest cracks. The difference is simple: snaking pokes a hole through the blockage. Hydro jetting removes it completely. That’s why our customers see results that last up to 90% longer than traditional drain cleaning methods.

Hydro Jetting Process Brentwood

Here's Exactly What We Do
First, we run a camera inspection through your sewer line. This isn’t optional—we need to see what we’re dealing with and make sure your pipes can handle the pressure. Some older cast iron or clay pipes need a gentler approach. Once we know your system can handle it, we insert our specialized jetting hose through a cleanout or access point. The high-pressure water—anywhere from 1,500 to 4,000 PSI depending on your specific situation—blasts through the blockage while simultaneously scrubbing the pipe walls clean. The water pressure is strong enough to cut through tree roots but controlled enough to protect your pipes. Everything gets flushed downstream and out of your system. We finish with another camera inspection to confirm the line is completely clear and show you the results.

Sewer Jetting Services Brentwood

What's Included in Our Service
Every sewer jetting job includes before-and-after camera inspections so you can see exactly what we found and how we fixed it. No surprises, no upselling—just transparent service. We handle everything from residential kitchen drains clogged with grease to main sewer lines invaded by tree roots. Our equipment works on pipes from 1 inch to 24 inches in diameter, and we carry multiple nozzle types for different blockage situations. Here in Brentwood, we see a lot of sand infiltration issues that other companies miss. That sandy Long Island soil works its way into sewer lines through the same cracks that let tree roots in. Over time, it creates a cement-like sludge that regular snaking can’t touch. Our hydro jetting completely removes this buildup, restoring your pipes to their full diameter.

How much does sewer jetting cost compared to snaking?

Sewer jetting typically costs between $350-600, while snaking might only cost $50-150. Here’s why the investment makes sense: snaking just pokes a hole through the blockage, leaving most of the buildup stuck to your pipe walls. Jetting removes everything—grease, roots, sand, years of accumulated debris. Our customers typically go 2-3 times longer between service calls compared to snaking alone. When you factor in fewer emergency calls and the reduced risk of major pipe damage, jetting often costs less in the long run. Plus, we include camera inspections with every jetting service so you can see exactly what we accomplished. Most snaking services don’t offer that level of transparency.
That’s exactly why we start every job with a camera inspection. We need to assess your pipe condition before we turn on any high-pressure equipment. Most modern pipes—PVC, newer cast iron, properly installed clay—handle hydro jetting just fine. If we find pipes that are already cracked, collapsed, or severely deteriorated, we’ll recommend alternative solutions or repairs first. The reality is, if hydro jetting damages a pipe, that pipe was already at the end of its lifespan. We’d rather identify those problems during a planned service call than have you discover them during a sewage backup emergency. Our experience with Suffolk County’s older infrastructure means we know what to look for.
For most Brentwood homes, every 2-3 years works well as preventive maintenance. But your specific situation depends on several factors we see regularly here on Long Island. If you have mature trees near your sewer line, you might need annual jetting. Those roots are aggressive, especially during late summer when they’re storing up water and nutrients for winter. Homes with garbage disposals or frequent cooking with oils and grease might need more frequent service too. Commercial properties, especially restaurants, typically need quarterly or semi-annual jetting due to the volume of grease and food waste going down their drains. We can set up a maintenance schedule that fits your specific usage patterns and helps you avoid emergency situations.
Usually, yes—but we might need to do some preliminary work first. If your line is 100% blocked, we sometimes need to use a snake to create an initial opening before we can get the jetting hose through. The key is having access to your sewer line through a cleanout or other entry point. If your blockage is so severe that we can’t get equipment into the line, we might need to create temporary access or address structural problems first. Complete blockages often indicate serious issues like collapsed pipes, major root infiltration, or significant sand/sludge buildup. That’s why the camera inspection is so important—it shows us exactly what we’re dealing with and helps us develop the right strategy for your specific situation.
Absolutely. Hydro jetting uses only high-pressure water—no chemicals, no harsh drain cleaners, no toxic additives. Everything we flush out of your pipes is organic waste that would eventually make its way through the system anyway. This is especially important here on Long Island where we’re all concerned about protecting our groundwater and local water sources. Chemical drain cleaners can harm the beneficial bacteria in septic systems and cesspools, but water jetting actually helps these systems function better. The process also eliminates the bacteria and organic buildup that creates foul odors, so you get cleaner pipes without introducing anything harmful into the environment. It’s one of the most eco-friendly drain cleaning methods available.
Experience with Long Island’s specific challenges makes a huge difference. We know how sandy soil infiltration combines with tree roots to create blockages that mainland companies rarely see. Our equipment and techniques are specifically chosen for these conditions. We also include comprehensive camera inspections with every jetting service—before and after. Many companies charge extra for this or skip it entirely. You get to see exactly what was blocking your line and confirm that it’s completely cleared. Our family-owned approach means the same experienced technicians handle your service calls. We’re not sending different crews who don’t know your property’s history. When you call us back for maintenance, we already know your system and can spot developing problems before they become emergencies.
