FAQs
What is high-pressure drain jetting and how does it work?
High-pressure drain jetting uses a powerful water pump to force a jet of water through a flexible hose inserted into the drain, dislodging and flushing away blockages, grease, scale, and debris. The water pressure used in commercial jetting – typically between 2,000 and 4,000 PSI – is capable of removing heavy grease accumulation, root ingress, and compacted sediment that rodding alone cannot clear. Call 0203 439 9474.
When is drain jetting necessary rather than rodding?
Drain jetting is typically more effective than rodding for grease and fat accumulation in commercial kitchen drains, root ingress, scale and sediment build-up over a long pipe run, and general preventative maintenance jetting of drains at risk of blockage. Rodding is often sufficient for simple physical blockages close to the access point. Our engineers assess the appropriate method on attendance. Call 0203 439 9474.
Is drain jetting safe for all types of drainage pipe?
High-pressure jetting is suitable for most modern drainage pipe materials including PVC, clay, and cast iron, when carried out at appropriate pressures by experienced engineers. Very old or damaged pipework may not be suitable for high-pressure jetting – we check the condition of the drain before jetting and adjust our approach accordingly. Call 0203 439 9474.
Do you carry out drain jetting for commercial kitchens and restaurants?
Yes. Commercial kitchen drains are one of the most common applications for drain jetting – grease accumulation is a constant challenge in busy kitchens and can cause severe blockages in a short time. We recommend planned jetting on a scheduled basis for commercial kitchens, rather than waiting for a blockage to occur. Call 0203 439 9474 to discuss a jetting maintenance programme.
How long does a drain jetting visit take?
A straightforward jetting visit for a standard domestic or small commercial drain typically takes between one and two hours. Larger commercial drain networks with multiple access points and long pipe runs may take longer. We confirm the likely duration when you book. Call 0203 439 9474.
