Hydro Jetting in San Pedro, CA

Hydro jetting uses a 4,000 PSI water stream through a rotating-nozzle head to scour the inside of a drain or sewer line back to bare pipe wall. Where a cable auger punches a hole through a clog, hydro jetting strips the entire interior — grease, biofilm, scale, food solids, paper, and roots — so the line returns to its original flow capacity instead of just functioning until the next reformation. We run hydro jetting through any 2-inch-or-larger line, residential or commercial, and follow it with a camera pass to verify the line is clean and find the underlying cause if it's repeat-clogging.

Hydro jetting in San Pedro sees two distinct call patterns. First, restaurants and commercial kitchens — San Pedro's commercial corridor has the usual mix of food-service operators dealing with chronic grease accumulation that sectional augers can't actually clear, just punch through. Second, older residential mains in the city's pre-1970 neighborhoods where decades of paper, hair, and scale have narrowed the pipe to less than half its original diameter. Pre-1940 housing stock dominates many older blocks — original cast iron and clay tile common at end-of-life, which is exactly the failure mode hydro jetting is built for. We run the jetter on a fully-stocked truck, so we can usually convert from a diagnostic call to an actual jetting service in a single visit.
