Is Hydro Jetting Safe for Older Pipes?

It depends on the condition and material of your plumbing. Our team always performs a camera inspection first to ensure the pipes can handle the pressure safely. If your pipes are fragile or corroded, we’ll recommend a gentler alternative.

How Often Should Hydro Jetting Be Done?

For most homes, hydro jetting once every year or two is sufficient, especially if you deal with frequent clogs. Commercial kitchens or high-use systems may need it more frequently. We can help you develop a schedule based on your plumbing’s usage and layout.

Will Hydro Jetting Solve All My Drain Problems?

Hydro jetting is highly effective for cleaning and unclogging pipes, but it won’t fix structural issues like broken lines or sagging pipes. We may recommend additional repairs if we find damage during inspection. It’s a great solution for buildup, but not a fix-all for deeper plumbing issues.

How Long Does a Hydro Jetting Service Take?

Most hydro jetting appointments take between one and two hours, depending on the severity and location of the clog. Simple residential jobs may be completed quickly, while commercial or large-scale blockages can take longer. Olympic Plumbing Technology ensures every job is thorough and never rushed, so your lines stay clean longer.

What Is Hydro Jetting And When Do You Need It?

Hydro jetting is a highly effective method used by Olympic Plumbing Technology to clear out clogged or dirty drain and sewer lines using powerful streams of water. It’s especially useful when buildup or blockages go beyond what snaking can fix. Here are the most common signs it may be time to schedule this service:

Recurring drain clogs: If you’ve had the same drain issue more than once, there’s likely a deeper blockage inside the line.
Slow-moving sinks or tubs: Sluggish drainage across multiple fixtures may indicate grease or debris buildup that only hydro jetting can clear.
Gurgling or noisy drains: These sounds often point to trapped air caused by an obstruction in your pipes.
Foul odors from drains: Lingering sewer smells could mean waste buildup that needs to be thoroughly flushed out.
Backed-up sewer lines: If multiple drains clog at once or sewage reappears, your main line may need immediate attention.

I recently had a leaking outside water spigot that I couldn’t fix on my own so I decided to shop around and find a reliable plumbing company to assist me. Olympia Plumbing Technology in Olympia Wa. Answered the call. The technician I worked with was named Morgan who was absolutely professional and knowledgeable about the job! Morgan explained in great detail the job he would perform to fix my leaky spigot which lead to cutting into drywall to repair a poorly installed pipe during the home construction. As Morgan worked he explained the why’s on what he was doing and made sure I completely understood the issue and how he was going to fix it! After the job was over Morgan left the work area like his company was never there. Because of his hard work and professionalism I am recommending Olympia Plumbing Technology to all my family and friends! I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for an outstanding plumbing service! Joe

Rafael was incredibly professional, very patient and left our washroom plumbing looking immaculate and functioning better than ever. We got same day assessment and fix, which was awesome. My experience was that this professional plumber was notably courteous and worked efficiently to take some 100 year old plumbing and make it modern functioning. What a blessing. Thank you Rafael. He a joy to work with.
