Hydro jetting in Detroit — 4,000 PSI water, wall-to-wall scour
Cabling cuts a hole through the clog. Hydro jetting scrubs the entire pipe wall — grease, mineral scale, biofilm, soft roots — until the line looks new on the camera. For chronic kitchen lines, commercial grease, and pre-trenchless prep, jetting is the only tool that actually clears the pipe instead of just punching through it.
The wall doesn't just open — it scours back to original diameter
Cabling punches a hole through the clog and leaves the buildup ring. Jetting scrubs the pipe wall in a 360° pattern, restoring the full inside diameter the manufacturer designed. The difference shows up on camera within seconds.
Cable cleared a path through the center. The buildup ring around the wall stays. Reclog within 6-8 months.
Wall scrubbed clean wall-to-wall. Pipe is at design diameter. Holds clean for 18-24 months.
The Detroit pipe conditions hydro jetting was built for
Jetting isn't for every clog. It's overkill on a fresh hair mat or paper jam (cable handles those). It's perfect for grease, scale, biofilm, and pre-lining prep.
Recurring kitchen line
Cabled it last year, slow again now? The grease ring rebuilt. Jet once, clear for 18-24 months.
Cast iron scale
Pre-1960 Detroit cast iron sewer narrows 20-40% from internal scale. Jet descales without damaging pipe wall.
Commercial grease trap line
Restaurants, cafes, multi-family. Cabling won't keep up. Jet on a quarterly schedule keeps you compliant.
Soft root taps
Fine fibrous roots through joint seams. Jet shears them off, foaming herbicide stops regrowth.
Pre-lining prep
Trenchless CIPP lining requires a clean pipe wall to bond properly. Jet first, then line.
