Homeowners · Landlords · Renters (with owner approval)
Commercial Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning High-flow penetrating nozzle
Scheduled and emergency jetting for restaurants, retail and commercial buildings to keep high-volume drain lines flowing.
Heavy daily use packs grease, sludge and debris into commercial lines, risking shutdowns and code issues.

Bathroom Drain Hydro Jetting Multi-jet flushing nozzle
Clears hair, soap scum and mineral buildup from shower, tub, sink and toilet branch lines for reliable drainage.
Hair and soap bind together into dense clogs that snaking only punches a hole through instead of removing.
Homeowners · Hotels · Property managers
Storm Drain Hydro Jet Cleaning Heavy-debris flushing nozzle
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.
HOAs · Municipalities · Property owners
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.
Roots seek moisture at pipe joints, spreading into a mesh that traps waste and cracks older sewer pipe.

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 Onyx Homes and Land
Out here in the Kern River Valley, a sluggish drain or a backed-up line can mean a long drive before help arrives — our technicians bring the equipment to fix it right the first time.
Hydro jetting sends water at 3,000 to 4,000 PSI through a flexible hose fitted with specialized nozzles that scour the entire interior wall of the pipe. Rotary root-cutting heads slice through invasive roots, while penetrating and grease-cutting nozzles break apart sludge, scale and fat deposits. We run a CCTV camera through the line before and after service to confirm the full pipe diameter is restored.
Many properties around Onyx rely on older piping, private septic connections and long runs of sewer or drain line stretching across rural lots, which gives tree roots and sediment plenty of opportunity to intrude. Seasonal desert rains can also send silt and debris into exposed drain and culvert lines. Our specialists are equipped to handle both compact home systems and longer rural runs without tearing up your property.
We provide main sewer line hydro jet cleaning, residential drain jetting for kitchen, bath and laundry lines, and tree root removal using rotary-cutting jets for properties with mature trees near the pipe. Commercial operations in the area can also schedule floor drain and grease line jetting to keep equipment and plumbing running smoothly. Sewer pipe descaling is available for homes with aging cast-iron or galvanized pipe.
Our licensed and insured team treats every Onyx property with the same care we'd want for our own home, using camera inspection to diagnose the real problem before recommending any work. We stand behind chemical-free, full-diameter results that last. Reach out today to schedule a hydro jetting service or ask our specialists a question about your line.
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 Onyx 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.

Frequently asked
questions · Onyx
Still unsure? A two-minute call usually answers everything.
(800) 771-8303How do you hydro jet a sewer line on a rural Onyx property with a long line to the septic tank?
We first run a CCTV camera through the line to map its length, material and any problem areas, since rural runs in Onyx can be considerably longer than typical city lines. Our technicians then select the right nozzle and pressure, typically 3,000 to 4,000 PSI, to clear the full run without damaging the septic connection. This approach clears blockages along the entire path rather than just the accessible section.
Are tree roots a common problem for Onyx properties near mature trees?
Yes, roots seek out the moisture inside sewer and drain lines and can intrude through small cracks or joints, especially on older pipe. Our rotary root-cutting jet nozzles slice through the roots and flush the debris out, reopening the full pipe diameter. This is more thorough than a simple auger, which often just punches a hole through the root mass rather than clearing it.
Is hydro jetting safe for the older pipe common in Onyx homes?
Hydro jetting is safe for most pipe materials, including PVC, cast iron and clay, when our technicians match the pressure and nozzle to the pipe's condition. We always inspect with a camera first to check for existing damage or thin walls before jetting. For pipe that shows significant deterioration, we can adjust pressure or recommend descaling instead of full-force jetting.
How often should a property in Onyx get its sewer line jetted?
It depends on the property, but homes with a history of root intrusion or older pipe often benefit from jetting every one to two years as preventive maintenance. Properties without recurring issues may only need service when a problem arises, such as slow drains or gurgling fixtures. Our specialists can recommend a schedule after reviewing your camera inspection footage.
What should I do if a drain backs up on a weekend or after hours in Onyx?
Call our team as soon as you notice the backup, since standing wastewater can cause damage the longer it sits. We prioritize urgent situations and dispatch technicians equipped with hydro jetting units and camera equipment to diagnose and clear the line. Acting quickly also reduces the chance of the blockage spreading further into the system.
