What Can A Jetter Clear?

An eel pokes a hole through a choke. A jetter washes the whole pipe wall. That difference shows up with:

Kitchen fat coated around the inside of a waste pipe, which an eel pushes past but never removes
Silt and sand lying along a flat run, lifted up and carried out by the water
Root growth in the joints, chopped out by a nozzle matched to the pipe size
Flushed right through to the sewer instead of shoved further along

To see the fault on film before anything is cleared, start with a CCTV drain inspection.

How Do You Know Jetting Fits?

The recording decides. We film first, and the recording reveals whether the pipe holds soft build-up that water can move, or a broken or sunken section that no amount of water pressure will fix.

Signs that point to a jetter:

Water going down, but slowly, in more than one fixture at a time
A pipe that was cleared before and has choked again
The toilet gurgling while the washing machine empties
A grate outside overflowing in rain, which points to the stormwater drains side of things

How We Jet A Line

01
The camera goes in first and shows the choke, its cause and its distance along the line.
02
We pick a nozzle to suit the pipe size and material and feed the hose in from the nearest opening.
03
The pump drives water along the walls while the hose moves forward, cutting roots and pushing silt out toward the sewer.
04
The camera goes back in so you can see the clean pipe for yourself.

What Moves The Price

We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.

The number depends on:

Distance With a choke deep along the line keeping the pump running longer than one near the opening
Getting in Since a covered or missing inspection opening has to be found before any hose goes down
What is in the pipe With loose silt shifting quicker than a thick mat of roots
The filming Before and after, which is built into the job, not added on

Flat Ground, Fine Sand And Slow Lines

The soil does half the damage here

The foreshore soil is sandy, and grains of it wash into tired drains and settle out as silt that a gentle flow will never move. Most houses here are brick-veneer homes from the late 1980s and 1990s, so their drains have had decades for the joints to loosen and let that sand through.

Flat runs make it worse

Down on the lakeside flats, the high water table leaves buried pipes with little fall, so water creeps along even in dry weather.

That is why the jetter suits these blocks

Pressure moves what gravity cannot, and the closing camera run shows a line near the Dilkera Avenue foreshore flowing freely before the next heavy rain arrives.

What A Jetting Customer Said

We talked through the options of our blocked kitchen sink drain (not just an s bend problem) and came to the perfect long term solution at a reasonable price.

When We're Not The Right Call

A broken public sewer is Hunter Water's to repair

If the camera finds the problem past your connection, the job is theirs, and you get the footage to pass on.

A cracked pipe needs more than water

Where roots keep getting back in through the same joint, a reline seals it, and heavy root growth is covered under root cutting. Every other kind of blockage is on the blocked drains hub.

Jetting Questions Before You Book

Does drain jetting use chemicals?

No. A jetter is a pump and a hose pushing ordinary water hard enough to strip the pipe clean. Nothing caustic goes into your drain or leaks into the soil around it, which matters on sandy lakeside ground where anything poured down a pipe ends up heading for the water.

Will the jetter cut through tree roots in my sewer line?

Yes. A root-cutting nozzle on the end of the hose chops the growth away and the water carries the pieces off. Roots come back through the joint they used, so once the filming shows that joint we can price closing it, instead of you booking another clear next year.

Can jetting fix a stormwater pit that floods in a storm?

It clears the pipe the pit drains into. On the flat, low blocks near the shore, groundwater lies shallow and those pipes carry silt and run slowly even in dry weather. Jetting takes the silt out, though a very heavy storm can still beat a pipe with so little fall.

Do I need to be home while the jetter runs?

An adult needs to be there to agree the fixed price before we start and to see the pipe flowing at the end. The hose works from an opening outside or under the floor, so the water and the noise stay with the drain and away from the living areas.
