Hydro Jetting in Des Moines: what is different here

Mid-century homes in Des Moines, especially around Woodmont and the hillside above the Marina District, often have older lines with heavy buildup. Before jetting, we camera the pipe, since steep or aging runs need a careful look. It is about 35 minutes from our base up I-5 north, Monday to Saturday.

How the job runs

  1. Camera check first

    We look inside the line to find the buildup and make sure the pipe is sound enough for high pressure.
  2. Flat price and plan

    You see what we found and get a flat price before we start. If jetting is the wrong fit, we tell you.
  3. Jet the line

    A hose with a special nozzle sprays water forward and back, scouring the walls and flushing debris down the line.
  4. Flow test and clean up

    We run water to confirm flow, can show you a camera view after, and clean up the work area.

Hydro Jetting questions in Des Moines

Expect a camera look first, then jetting if the pipe is sound. Many Des Moines homes are mid-century, so we check for cracks before using high pressure. After jetting, we run water through the fixtures to confirm the line flows. You know the flat price before work begins.

Here is what is typical once we are on site. Kitchen or branch line: 1 to 2 hours. Main sewer line jetting: 2 to 4 hours. Des Moines is about 35 minutes from our base via I-5 north. We confirm timing with you when you book.

Hydro jetting sends water at very high pressure through a hose and nozzle into your drain or sewer line. The spray scours grease, scale, sludge and roots off the pipe walls and flushes them away. It cleans the full inside of the pipe, not just a small path.
