Professional Hydro Jetting Brookline

Drains That Actually Stay Clear
Your drains flow like new again. No more standing water in your shower or kitchen sink backing up during dinner prep. The high-pressure water scours every inch of your pipe walls, removing the grease, hair, soap scum, and mineral deposits that traditional snaking leaves behind. You get months of worry-free drainage instead of the same clog coming back in two weeks. Your older Brookline home’s plumbing system works the way it should, without the constant maintenance headaches that come with surface-level fixes.

Hydro Jetting Process Brookline

Here's Exactly What We Do
First, we inspect your drain with a camera to see exactly what we’re dealing with and make sure your pipes can handle the pressure. No guesswork, no surprises. Then we insert a specialized hose with a high-pressure nozzle into your drain line. Water blasts out at up to 3,500 PSI in multiple directions, scouring the entire diameter of your pipes. The debris gets flushed downstream and out of your system completely. The whole process typically takes 1-2 hours depending on the severity of buildup. You’ll see the difference immediately when we test your drains afterward.

Brookline Hydro Jetting Services

What You Get With Our Service
Every hydro jetting service includes upfront pricing before we start, so you know exactly what you’re paying. We provide a 7-day warranty on drain cleaning work and use only water—no harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes or contaminate Brookline’s water system. For Brookline homes, this service is especially valuable because many properties have plumbing systems installed in the 1950s-70s that accumulate decades of buildup. The Muddy River area and older neighborhoods near Coolidge Corner often have homes with cast iron or galvanized steel pipes that benefit significantly from thorough cleaning. We also offer a free main sewer line camera inspection for new customers, helping you understand your entire plumbing system’s condition.

How much does hydro jetting cost in Brookline, MA?

Hydro jetting in the Brookline area typically costs between $350-$600, depending on the severity of the blockage and length of pipe that needs cleaning. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know the exact cost. While this is more expensive than traditional drain snaking ($100-$200), hydro jetting lasts much longer because it removes all the buildup from your pipe walls instead of just poking a hole through the clog. Most customers find they need service much less frequently, making it more cost-effective over time.
Yes, when performed by professionals with proper equipment and training. We always start with a camera inspection to assess your pipe condition before using high-pressure water. Many Brookline homes have older cast iron or galvanized steel pipes that are actually good candidates for hydro jetting because these materials can typically handle the pressure. However, if we find pipes that are severely corroded or damaged, we’ll recommend alternative cleaning methods to avoid causing damage.
Most customers see 6 months to 2 years of clear drains after hydro jetting, compared to 2-6 weeks with traditional snaking. The exact duration depends on what goes down your drains and your home’s usage patterns. Homes with heavy grease use (frequent cooking) or lots of hair (large families) may need service more often. But because hydro jetting removes virtually all buildup from pipe walls, you get significantly longer-lasting results than other drain cleaning methods.
Yes, hydro jetting can cut through small to medium tree roots that have infiltrated your sewer lines. The high-pressure water (up to 3,500 PSI) can slice through roots and flush the debris downstream. However, if you have major root infiltration or damaged pipe sections, hydro jetting alone may not be sufficient. We’ll use our camera inspection to assess the extent of root damage and recommend the most appropriate solution, which might include root cutting followed by hydro jetting or pipe repair.
Chemical drain cleaners only dissolve some types of clogs and can actually damage your pipes over time, especially in older Brookline homes with metal pipes. They also introduce harsh chemicals into the local water system. Hydro jetting uses only water, making it environmentally safe and effective against all types of blockages—grease, hair, soap scum, mineral deposits, and even tree roots. It also cleans the entire pipe diameter, not just creates a small hole through the clog like chemicals do.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency plumbing services including hydro jetting when needed. If you have a severe backup or multiple drains clogged at once, we can often provide same-day service. Keep in mind that emergency services may have additional fees, but we always provide upfront pricing before starting work. For non-emergency situations, regular scheduling typically offers better rates and allows us to plan the most thorough service for your specific needs.
