Hydro Jetting · Des Moines, Iowa

Hydro Jetting in Des Moines, Iowa

We run jetting on restaurant grease lines, root-filled main sewers and old scaled cast iron across Des Moines. The nozzle pulls itself upstream while the rear jets flush the debris back toward the cleanout, so the line finishes genuinely clear. We camera before and after so you can see the difference rather than take our word for it.

Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

When to call us in Des Moines

  • The same line clogs again every few months
  • A commercial kitchen line that backs up during service
  • Grease visible when the cleanout is opened
  • Roots that keep returning after cabling
  • Old cast iron that has scaled down to a narrow channel
  • A camera pass showing build-up along the whole run

What the visit covers

  • Camera pass first to confirm jetting is safe for the pipe
  • Nozzle matched to grease, roots or scale
  • Pressure set to the pipe material, not cranked to maximum
  • Debris flushed out rather than pushed downstream
  • Second camera pass to verify the finished line
  • Maintenance interval recommended for commercial lines

Older sewer lines here are clay or cast iron

Plenty of Des Moines homes still run their waste out to the street through clay tile with a joint every few feet, and roots find every one of them. Cast iron scales shut from the inside instead. Either way, a main line that backs up twice in a year is telling you something a camera can confirm in twenty minutes.

Des Moines customers on our hydro jetting work

★★★★★

Our water heater quit on a Saturday with a house full of family. They came out the same afternoon, found a failed element rather than telling us we needed a new tank, and we had hot water back by dinner.

Marcus T. · Des Moines, IA

★★★★★

They installed a new 50 gallon heater and hauled the old one away same visit. Took about three hours start to finish and the expansion tank was included, which the other quote had left off.

Cora Z. · West Des Moines, IA

★★★★★

Woke up to water coming through the kitchen ceiling at about 4am. Somebody answered on the second ring, talked me through shutting the main off, and a truck was here inside the hour. Split pipe in the bathroom wall. Fixed and tested before I left for work.

Hydro Jetting in Des Moines: common questions

Is hydro jetting safe for old pipes?

Not always, which is why we camera first. A sound clay or cast iron line handles jetting fine at the right pressure. A line that is already cracked or badly deteriorated should be repaired, not jetted, and we will tell you that.

How is jetting different from snaking?

A cable bores a channel through the clog and the line reopens at reduced diameter. Jetting strips the build-up off the pipe wall so you get the full bore back. Snaking is faster and cheaper; jetting lasts far longer.

How often should a restaurant jet its grease line in Des Moines?

Most Des Moines kitchens do well on a six month interval, busier ones on quarterly. We set the schedule off what the camera shows in your line rather than a generic number.

Will jetting cut tree roots?

Yes, a root nozzle cuts roots back to the pipe wall. It does not fix the crack or joint that let them in, so we usually pair it with a camera inspection and a conversation about lining.
