Plumbing Kyle provides hydro jetting in Kyle, TX — high-pressure water cleaning that scours the inside of drain and sewer lines. When snaking clears a path but the buildup remains, jetting removes grease, sludge, scale, and roots from the pipe walls themselves for a longer-lasting result.
A specialized nozzle on a high-pressure hose is fed into the drain line. It fires water jets backward and forward at up to 4,000 PSI — the backward jets pull the nozzle through the pipe while scouring the walls, flushing everything downstream and out of the system.
A drain snake punches a hole through a clog; buildup stays on the pipe walls and the clog returns. Jetting is the right call for recurring grease clogs, heavy sludge, scale narrowing the pipe, and root intrusion that keeps coming back after snaking.
Jetting uses serious pressure, so the pipe's condition matters. Fragile, collapsed, or badly deteriorated lines need a camera inspection first — we'll tell you honestly if jetting isn't appropriate for your pipes.
Restaurant kitchen lines with years of grease, main sewer lines with root intrusion, and residential drains with chronic buildup all respond well to jetting when the pipe is sound.
Avoid chemical drain cleaners before our visit — they can linger in standing water and create hazards. Note which drains are affected and whether they've been snaked before; that history helps us choose the right nozzle and pressure for your pipes.

Practical answers to common service questions.
A hose with a specialized nozzle is inserted into the drain. High-pressure water jets (up to 4,000 PSI) fire in multiple directions — breaking up blockages ahead while scouring grease, sludge, and scale from the pipe walls behind. Everything flushes downstream and out of the system.
For sound pipes, yes — it's the industry-standard deep-cleaning method. That's why we camera-inspect first: if a line is fragile, collapsed, or severely deteriorated, we'll tell you jetting isn't the right approach and discuss alternatives.
Snaking punches through a clog but leaves buildup on the pipe walls, so clogs return. Jetting cleans the full diameter of the pipe — it's the difference between clearing a path and actually cleaning the line.
For problem lines — recurring grease clogs or root intrusion — many properties benefit from jetting every 1–2 years as preventive maintenance. We'll recommend a schedule based on what the camera shows in your lines.
