Mountain sewer laterals face severe blockages from invasive tree roots, heavy grease congealment, and decomposed organic debris. Traditional mechanical drain snakes merely punch a small hole through obstructions, allowing rapid re-clogging. Our trailer-mounted hydro jetters blast 4,000 PSI water through specialized rotating nozzles, completely scouring interior pipe walls back to original diameter.
Our industrial jetting equipment pumps 18 gallons per minute at 4,000 PSI through flexible high-pressure hoses, emulsifying hardened kitchen fats, sanitary debris, and gravel sediment without scratching pipe walls.
Aggressive oak, maple, and willow roots penetrate pipe joints in search of water. We deploy precision rear-facing and forward-facing spinning nozzles with hardened carbide cutters that saw tree roots flush with pipe crowns.
Before jetting, we insert color sewer cameras to inspect pipe integrity and verify no structural collapse exists. After jetting, we re-scope the line to provide verified proof that 100% of roots and mineral scale have been eradicated.
Commercial kitchens in downtown Asheville and tourist destinations encounter strict FOG (fats, oils, grease) regulations. We provide scheduled preventive jetting keeping commercial lines compliant and free-flowing.
Prior to jetting, we always inspect the pipe with a sewer camera. If the line is structurally sound, jetting cleans it safely without damage; if the pipe is fractured or collapsed, we recommend trenchless repair.
Residential lines plagued by tree roots benefit from hydro jetting every 18 to 24 months, while commercial food service establishments require quarterly or semi-annual maintenance.
Hydro jetting completely shears off all roots inside the pipe; however, tree roots will eventually regrow through unsealed joints unless permanent pipe lining or spot repair is performed.
