Hydro jetting is the single most effective method for cleaning a sewer line and restoring it to a "like-new" condition. At Principle Plumbing, we use this advanced process with specialized equipment to provide the ultimate drain cleaning solution.
How Hydro Jetting Works: This process uses a specialized hose with a multi-directional nozzle that blasts water at extremely high pressures (up to 4,000 PSI) inside your pipes. The high-pressure jets don't just break up clogs; they scour the entire inner surface of the pipe, pulverizing grease, dissolving sludge, obliterating tree roots, and removing mineral scale buildup.
The Result: The water propels the hose forward and flushes all debris safely out of your system, leaving your pipes clean and flowing like new. Unlike traditional rodding that just pokes a hole through the clog, hydro jetting provides a long-lasting solution.
Safe & Environmentally Friendly: Hydro jetting uses only water—no harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes or harm the environment. It's the safest, most eco-friendly way to thoroughly clean your sewer and drain lines while extending their lifespan.
Best For: Hydro jetting is the ideal solution for:
Recurring Clogs: Especially in kitchen lines due to grease and sludge buildup.
Heavy Tree Root Intrusion: After roots are cut, hydro jetting removes all remaining debris and prevents regrowth.
Preventative Maintenance: For old homes with cast iron pipes prone to buildup and corrosion.
Commercial Properties: Especially restaurants with heavy grease trap usage that require thorough cleaning.
Long-Term Solution: When you want to fix the problem once and avoid repeated service calls.
5 Signs You Might Need Repiping Services

Traditional Sewer Rodding vs. Hydro Jetting: Which is Right for You?
Are you tired of slow drains, gurgling toilets, and messy sewer backups that keep coming back? A simple clog is one thing, but a recurring problem means there's a deeper issue in your main sewer line.
At Principle Plumbing, we don't just clear your drain for today—we provide advanced cleaning solutions that last. We are serving the DuPage County community's experts in both traditional sewer rodding and high-power hydro jetting, offering the right tool for every job to get your plumbing flowing freely and reliably.
Traditional Sewer Rodding (Snaking): The Standard Fix
For most common clogs, traditional power rodding (also known as "snaking") is a highly effective solution. This process uses a powerful, flexible cable with a specialized cutting head (or auger) that is fed into your pipe.
How it Works: The cable spins as it moves through the pipe, breaking apart solid obstructions, cutting through small tree roots, or retrieving foreign objects.
Best For: Simple, isolated clogs (e.g., a toilet backup), clearing a clog caused by a solid object, or breaking up and retrieving minor tree roots.
The Limitation: Rodding is like poking a hole in a clog. It clears a path for water to flow but does not clean the pipe walls. This leaves behind the grease, sludge, and scale that caused the clog in the first place, making it very likely to return.
Hydro Jetting: The Ultimate Solution
Hydro jetting is the single most effective method for cleaning a sewer line and restoring it to a "like-new" condition. This process uses a specialized hose with a multi-directional nozzle that blasts water at extremely high pressures (up to 4,000 PSI) inside your pipes.
How it Works: The high-pressure jets don't just break up clogs; they scour the entire inner surface of the pipe, pulverizing grease, dissolving sludge, obliterating tree roots, and removing mineral scale buildup. The water propels the hose forward and flushes all debris safely out of your system.
Best For: Recurring clogs (especially in kitchen lines due to grease and sludge), heavy tree root intrusion (after roots are cut), preventative maintenance for old homes with cast iron pipes, and commercial properties, especially restaurants with heavy grease trap usage.
The Result: A long-lasting solution that leaves your pipes like new, saving you money on multiple future service calls.
Rodding vs. Hydro Jetting: The Key Difference
Rodding is a fix, while hydro jetting is a solution. Rodding pokes a hole through the blockage to create a temporary path for water. Hydro jetting cleans the entire inner pipe wall, removing all buildup and providing a long-lasting result.
We will never hydro jet a pipe blind. A sewer line that is old, cracked, or has separated joints could be damaged by high-pressure water. That's why we always recommend a camera inspection first to confirm the structural integrity of your pipe and determine the best service for your specific situation.
Trust Principle Plumbing for quick and effective drain cleaning solutions. We're committed to ensuring your plumbing flows freely and reliably.
