Can drain jetting remove tree roots?

Yes, our high-pressure jetting equipment is powerful enough to break through small tree roots that have intruded into the drain. However, if the root intrusion is severe, we may recommend root cutting or drain relining for a long-term solution.

How often should drain jetting be carried out?

For residential properties, we recommend drain jetting at least once a year to prevent build-ups. Businesses, especially those in the food or hospitality industry, may benefit from more frequent jetting due to higher waste and grease accumulation.

Is drain jetting safe for my pipes?

Yes! Unlike chemical cleaners which can corrode pipes over time, drain jetting is a safe and non-invasive solution. Our experts carefully adjust the pressure to suit your pipework, ensuring no damage is caused while effectively removing blockages.

When should I consider drain jetting?

You should consider drain jetting if you’re experiencing slow drainage, gurgling sounds, unpleasant odours or frequent blockages. It’s also beneficial as part of a preventative maintenance plan to keep your drains flowing smoothly and avoid costly repairs.

What is drain jetting and how does it work?
