When traditional drain cleaning isn’t enough, hydro jetting provides a deeper, more thorough solution for removing grease, scale, and buildup from drain and sewer lines.
When traditional drain cleaning isn’t enough, hydro jetting provides a deeper, more thorough solution. At The Drain Smith, we offer professional hydro jetting services for residential and commercial properties throughout Cincinnati, OH and surrounding communities.
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to remove grease, scale, sludge, and debris from inside drain and sewer lines, restoring full pipe diameter and helping prevent future clogs.
Hydro jetting is an advanced drain and sewer cleaning method that uses specialized equipment to deliver high-pressure water through pipes. This powerful stream scrubs the interior walls of the pipe, breaking down and flushing away stubborn buildup.
Unlike basic snaking methods, hydro jetting cleans the entire pipe — not just the immediate blockage — making it an effective solution for recurring or severe drain issues.
Hydro jetting is often recommended when drain problems are frequent, severe, or caused by heavy buildup inside the pipes.
Recurring drain clogs that return after cleaning
Grease buildup in kitchen or commercial drains
Scale and mineral buildup inside older pipes
Sludge or debris restricting water flow
Multiple drains backing up at once!
A camera inspection helps determine whether hydro jetting is the right solution for your system.
Not all drain problems require the same approach. Understanding the difference between hydro jetting and traditional drain cleaning helps ensure the correct method is used.

Hydro jetting is designed for heavy buildup and recurring issues. It thoroughly cleans the pipe walls, making it ideal for grease, scale, and long-term performance.
Hydro jetting can be used safely and effectively in both residential and commercial settings when performed by trained professionals.
