Hydro Jetting Service in Wichita Falls, TX
When a cable clears the blockage but the problem keeps coming back, hydro jetting scours the full pipe wall at high pressure. We remove grease buildup, scale, sludge and light root intrusion to restore the pipe close to its original diameter.
- High-pressure jetting for drain and sewer lines
- Removes grease, scale, sludge and roots from pipe walls
- Camera inspection before and after to confirm results
Direct answer
What is hydro jetting and when is it needed?
Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure water jet fed through a specialized nozzle to scour the inside of drain and sewer pipes. Unlike cabling, which cuts through the centre of a blockage, jetting cleans the full pipe wall and flushes debris downstream. It is the right answer for grease-heavy kitchen lines, recurring blockages, root-invaded sewers and commercial drains that need scheduled maintenance. We always camera the line before jetting to confirm the pipe is sound enough to handle the pressure.
Same drain clogging every few months?
A cable punches through the blockage but leaves the buildup on the pipe wall. Hydro jetting strips the wall clean. Call (940) 905-8032 and we will camera the line, jet it, then camera it again so you see the difference.
Beyond the blockage
Jetting treats the pipe, not just the symptom
A drain cable creates a channel through the centre of a blockage. Flow resumes immediately, which feels like the job is done. But the grease layer, soap film, mineral scale and debris coating the pipe wall are still in place, and new material begins accumulating on that rough surface the same day.
Hydro jetting addresses the wall itself. The nozzle fires high-pressure water jets rearward at the pipe wall while advancing through the line, stripping the accumulated buildup down to the pipe surface. The result is a pipe that is close to its original diameter, with a smooth interior that resists new buildup far longer than a snaked pipe does.
That is why jetting is the correct answer for drains that keep clogging despite regular snaking. The cable treats the immediate blockage; the jet treats the condition that creates the blockage.
Camera first, always
Why we camera the line before jetting
Hydro jetting pressures range from 1,500 to 4,000 PSI depending on the line size, material and condition. Sound pipe handles this pressure without issue. But a pipe with a crack, a separated joint, active corrosion holes or severe thinning can be damaged further by jetting pressure.
That is why every jetting job starts with a camera inspection. The camera shows the pipe material, wall condition, joint integrity and the nature of the buildup. If the camera reveals a pipe that should not be jetted, we tell you before the jetting equipment comes off the truck. That camera run costs less than the repair bill from jetting a compromised pipe.
How the job runs
Our hydro jetting process
Every jetting job follows the same diagnostic-first approach.
- 01
Camera the line
A push camera runs the full length of the line to assess pipe material, wall condition, joint integrity and the nature of the buildup.
- 02
Assess suitability
We confirm the pipe can handle jetting pressure. Cracked, separated or severely thinned pipe is flagged for repair rather than jetting.
- 03
Select the nozzle
The jetting nozzle is chosen for the pipe size, material and the type of buildup: grease, scale, roots or mixed.
- 04
Jet the line
The nozzle is advanced through the line at controlled speed, scouring the pipe wall and flushing debris downstream.
- 05
Camera after jetting
The camera runs the line a second time so you can see the pipe wall condition after jetting compared to before.
- 06
Flush and test
The line is flushed with water and tested under full flow to confirm the diameter is restored and drainage is free.
Good candidates
When hydro jetting is the right answer
- Kitchen drain lines with grease buildup that clog repeatedly
- Main sewer laterals with root intrusion and scale
- Commercial kitchen lines that need scheduled maintenance
- Lines where cabling restores flow but the problem returns within months
- Old cast iron drains with heavy internal scale (confirmed sound by camera)
- Laundry lines that slow under heavy use
- Any line where the camera shows wall buildup narrowing the diameter
Not the right call
When jetting is not appropriate
- Pipe with visible cracks or joint separations on camera
- Severely corroded cast iron with thin walls
- Orangeburg or fibre pipe that cannot withstand pressure
- A single soft blockage that a cable can clear in minutes
- A line with a belly or back-pitch that traps debris regardless of wall condition
Why us
Why Wichita Falls homeowners and businesses choose us for jetting
Camera before and after
You see the pipe wall before jetting and after. The difference is obvious, and you know exactly what you paid for.
No jetting without camera
We do not jet blind. The camera confirms the pipe can handle the pressure and shows us what nozzle and pressure to use.
Equipment matched to the job
Different pipe sizes and materials need different pressures and nozzle types. We carry the range to handle residential and commercial lines.
Honest about limitations
If the camera shows a pipe that needs repair rather than cleaning, we tell you before we start rather than after.
Maintenance scheduling
For commercial kitchens and repeat-offender lines, we set a jetting schedule based on what the camera shows rather than a generic interval.
Jetting in Wichita Falls
Scale, grease and cast iron in the 940
Wichita Falls has a combination that makes hydro jetting particularly valuable: hard water that leaves mineral scale on pipe walls, and a large stock of older homes with cast iron drain lines that are rough and pitted from decades of use. Scale and grease grip rough cast iron far more aggressively than smooth PVC, which is why older homes here see recurring drain problems that newer construction does not.
Commercial kitchens in Wichita Falls are the other common jetting customer. Restaurant grease lines need scheduled jetting at intervals determined by volume, not a calendar. We camera the line after each jetting to set the next interval based on actual buildup rate rather than a guess.
Pricing
What does hydro jetting cost in Wichita Falls?
Hydro jetting costs more than a standard cable cleaning because the equipment and time involved are greater. The price depends on the line size, length and severity of the buildup. Commercial kitchen lines and main sewer laterals are the most common jetting jobs.
We quote the job after the camera inspection so the price is based on what we actually see. Call (940) 905-8032 for an estimate.
