Removes silt, leaves, mud and debris from storm drains and catch basins so runoff clears fast and flooding is prevented.
Sediment and yard debris build up in storm lines, causing pooling and flooding during California's wet season.

Floor Drain Hydro Jet Cleaning Penetrating flushing nozzle
Jets out grease, sludge and grit from basement, garage, warehouse and commercial floor drains to stop odors and overflow.
Neglected floor drains collect debris and dry out, leading to slow drainage, foul smells and backups.

Tree Root Removal with Hydro Jetting Rotary root-cutting (warthog) nozzle
Rotary root-cutting jets slice through invasive roots inside the pipe and flush them out, reopening the full line.

Sewer Pipe Descaling Descaling chain + jetting
Mechanical descaling and jetting strips rust, scale and mineral buildup from cast-iron and metal pipe back to bare wall.
Corrosion and scale flake off inside old cast-iron pipe, snagging debris and shrinking the usable diameter.

Hydro Jetting Solutions for Mentone Homes and Businesses
A backed-up sewer line rarely gives much warning beyond a gurgle in the bathtub or a slow kitchen sink, and by the time water is pooling, the problem is already inside the pipe.
Hydro jetting sends water at 3,000 to 4,000 PSI through a flexible hose fitted with a specialized nozzle, scouring the full interior wall of the pipe rather than punching a narrow hole through the blockage like a snake does. Rotary root-cutting heads slice through intruding roots, penetrating nozzles break apart sludge and scale, and grease-cutting tips liquefy fat buildup so it flushes away completely. Our technicians typically run a camera inspection first to confirm the cause and pipe condition, then follow up with a post-jet CCTV pass to verify the line is clear.
Mentone's mix of older residential streets and citrus-belt-era construction means a fair number of properties still run on clay or aging cast-iron sewer lines, both of which are vulnerable to root intrusion and interior scale buildup over the decades. The area's mature trees are a natural fit for the neighborhood but their root systems are drawn straight to the moisture inside sewer pipes, which is one of the most common service calls we get in and around town. Seasonal rains also test storm drains and yard lines that have gone unmaintained, making periodic jetting a practical way to stay ahead of backups.
We handle main sewer line jetting for whole-house backups, residential service for kitchen, bath and laundry lines, and commercial jetting for Mentone restaurants and retail spaces that need dependable uptime. Specialized work includes kitchen drain jetting to strip hardened grease, bathroom line clearing for hair and soap scum, tree root removal with rotary cutting jets, floor drain cleaning for garages and warehouses, and sewer pipe descaling that strips rust and mineral buildup back to bare pipe wall. Storm drain jetting is also available to keep runoff moving during heavier rain.
Our sewer specialists carry the equipment and experience to diagnose a drain problem accurately and fix it at the source rather than offering a temporary fix. Every job is backed by our licensed and insured crew, from the initial camera inspection through the final flow test.

Hydro jetting, explained
Know exactly what you're paying for
No jargon, no pressure. Here's how professional hydro jetting works and when it's the right call for your Mentone property.
How does hydro jetting actually work?
A hose fitted with a specialized nozzle is fed into the drain or sewer line. Pressurized water — usually 3,000 to 4,000 PSI — fires backward-angled jets that pull the hose upstream while scouring the entire inner wall of the pipe. Grease, sludge, scale and roots are cut loose and flushed downstream, restoring the pipe to its full diameter. Because it cleans the whole circumference rather than boring a hole through the middle, jetted lines stay clear far longer than snaked ones.
Hydro jetting vs. drain snaking (augering) — which do I need?
A snake (auger) is a flexible cable that punches through or hooks a clog to reopen flow fast — great for a single stoppage or as an emergency first step. Hydro jetting cleans: it removes the buildup coating the pipe wall so the problem does not come straight back. For recurring clogs, grease, scale or roots we recommend jetting; for a one-off blockage or fragile pipe, snaking may be the safer call. We carry both and pick based on what the camera shows.
Is it safe for older or cast-iron pipes?
Yes, when the pressure and nozzle are matched to the pipe. We inspect first. Sound pipe handles full pressure; older cast-iron or clay lines get lower pressure or a descaling head, and truly fragile pipe is snaked instead of jetted. The camera inspection is what keeps jetting safe — we never blast blind.
What does hydro jetting cost, and how often is it needed?
Cost depends on line length, access and how severe the blockage is — we give a firm quote after a quick look, often after a camera inspection. Most homes benefit from jetting every 18–24 months; restaurants and heavy-grease kitchens often schedule every 3–6 months. Regular jetting is far cheaper than an emergency backup or a pipe replacement.
Will it get rid of tree roots for good?
Rotary root-cutting nozzles slice roots back to the pipe wall and flush them out, fully reopening the line. Roots regrow, so for lines with repeat intrusion we pair jetting with a maintenance schedule (and can recommend a lasting fix if the joint is failing). It is the most thorough clearing short of replacing the pipe.
What is sewer pipe descaling?
In old metal pipe, rust and mineral scale flake off the wall, snag debris and shrink the usable diameter. Descaling uses a chain-flail or specialty head plus jetting to strip that buildup back to bare pipe, so water flows like the line is new — often extending the life of cast-iron systems by years.

(800) 771-8303How much does hydro jetting typically cost for a Mentone home?
Pricing depends on pipe length, clog severity and whether a camera inspection is included, but most residential jetting jobs are more cost-effective long term than repeated snaking because they clear the full pipe diameter. We provide a free quote after assessing your specific line. Commercial jobs are priced separately based on scope and access.
Is hydro jetting safe for the older clay and cast-iron pipes common in Mentone?
Yes, when performed by trained technicians who adjust pressure and nozzle type to the pipe material and condition. We inspect the line with a camera first to check for existing cracks or severe deterioration before jetting, since jetting is not recommended for pipes that are already structurally compromised. In those cases we recommend repair options instead.
What's the difference between jetting and snaking for a clogged drain?
Snaking uses a cable to punch or grind a hole through a clog, which restores some flow but leaves buildup on the pipe walls. Hydro jetting uses pressurized water to scour the entire interior surface, removing grease, scale and debris for a true full-diameter clean. We often recommend jetting for recurring clogs that keep coming back after snaking.
Can hydro jetting remove tree roots from my sewer line?
Yes, we use rotary root-cutting nozzles that slice through roots growing inside the pipe and flush the fragments out with high-pressure water. This is one of our most requested services given how many mature trees are planted near older sewer lines locally. A follow-up camera check confirms the roots are fully cleared and shows how much of a root barrier or repair might be needed down the road.
How often should a Mentone restaurant or commercial kitchen schedule drain jetting?
Most commercial kitchens benefit from jetting every three to six months to keep grease and food waste from building up in the lines, though high-volume operations may need more frequent service. We offer scheduled maintenance plans as well as emergency jetting when a line backs up unexpectedly. Regular service helps avoid costly shutdowns and health code issues.
