Hydro jetting removes all debris from the inside of the pipes and removes all clogs. It only uses the power of pressurized water to scrub the inside of the pipe walls with its nozzle. High quality is guaranteed with AAJDS’s free video inspection, after the hydro jetting job is completed. Snaking on the other hand breaks clogs apart and does not flush out sticky debris.

This will start the process of removing the clog. Now you can start getting the hydro jet ready. Always wear protective gear, gloves and googles. Follow the instructions from the hydro jet manufacturer. Please be also advised that harmful bacteria can spray back at you so wear the protective gear.
