Commercial Drain Jetting

Snaking bores a channel through the blockage. A jet rinses the whole inside wall of the line. Over a long plaza or kitchen run, that is what keeps the drain open for months instead of days.

When jetting beats a cable machine

Long horizontal branches under a plaza slab with several fixtures on them.
Kitchen lines coated in hardened grease from end to end.
Stacks in multi-unit buildings narrowed by decades of scale.
Storm and roof drains packed with sand, leaves and grit.
Lines that clog again within weeks of being snaked.

The job, step by step

Camera first where possible, to confirm the pipe material and spot any breaks a jetter could make worse.
Choose the nozzle: a forward-firing nozzle to bore through a plug, a spinning head to strip grease, or a cutter where roots have entered old joints.
Enter at the right cleanout, usually the downstream end, and work back toward the fixtures.
Control the water so it leaves by the drain, not out of a floor drain in the next unit.
Camera again to show the clean pipe and record its condition.
Flow test every fixture on the branch.

Pipe we meet in Newmarket commercial buildings

Older Main Street storefronts often still drain through cast iron and clay. Plazas built through the 1980s and 1990s are mostly ABS or PVC under the slab, with cast iron stacks in some multi-storey offices. Old brittle iron wants softer pressure than fresh plastic, so the scope always goes down ahead of the jet hose.

Asked on site

Can jetting damage old pipe?

High pressure can worsen a cracked or badly corroded pipe, which is why we camera first and adjust pressure and nozzle to the material.

How long does a commercial jetting job take?

A single kitchen branch is often a couple of hours. A building stack or long plaza line takes longer; we estimate after the camera look.
