About This Service

Hydro jetting uses a rotating nozzle delivering 3,000 to 4,000 PSI to strip everything from pipe walls: grease, mineral scale, soap buildup, and root intrusions. Where snaking punches through, jetting scours wall-to-wall. Northern Plumber of Marquette provides jetting for residential and commercial properties across Marquette and Marquette County.

Signs to Watch For

Clogs returning within weeks of snaking. Slow drainage despite recent cable service. Camera showing thick scale, grease coating, or root mass. Commercial kitchen grease accumulation. Persistent drain odors.

How It Gets Done

Camera inspection confirms pipe integrity first. Jetting nozzle fed through the line. Follow-up camera verifies results. Maintenance schedule recommended when appropriate.

Pricing

Priced by pipe length and access. More than a single snake call but provides significantly longer-lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hydro Jetting Questions and Answers

Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?
If structurally sound, yes. The mandatory camera inspection confirms condition before any pressure is applied. Many Marquette homes have older plumbing, so this pre-inspection is never skipped.
How long do jetting results last?
Significantly longer than cable cleaning. Residential main lines typically stay clear one to three years. Commercial kitchens may benefit from annual jetting.
Can jetting remove tree roots?
Yes. High-pressure water cuts through root intrusions effectively. For severe masses, jetting is sometimes combined with mechanical cutting. Periodic re-jetting prevents regrowth.
What is the difference between jetting and snaking?
Snaking punches through the clog but leaves residue on walls. Jetting cleans the entire interior wall-to-wall. Jetting prevents rapid re-clogging because the buildup that attracted the blockage is removed.
How long does a jetting appointment take?
Most residential jobs including camera inspection take one to two hours. Commercial lines or severely impacted pipes may take longer.
Does jetting damage PVC pipes?
When performed at the appropriate pressure, no. PVC is one of the most jetting-friendly materials. Pressure is adjusted based on pipe material and condition.
Can jetting fix a sewer line?
Jetting cleans the pipe but does not repair structural damage. If the camera reveals cracks or collapses, a repair recommendation is made in addition to the cleaning.
Is jetting noisy?
The equipment generates noise similar to a pressure washer. Noticeable but not excessive. Work is typically completed within one to two hours.
