Hydro Jetting in Englewood

Powerful Solutions for Stubborn Drain Problems

In the metropolitan area, slow drains and recurring clogs often signal a problem far deeper than a simple hair blockage; they point to years of accumulated grease, mineral scale, and stubborn tree roots in your main sewer line. When traditional snaking fails to provide a lasting fix, the risk of a sewage backup becomes imminent, threatening the health and structural integrity of your home. You need a powerful, professional method to scour the pipes clean.

At Blue Sky Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric, we apply four generations of plumbing expertise to modern solutions like Hydro Jetting. Serving the Denver Metro area for over 100 years, our certified plumbers are dedicated to quality work and honest dealing. We are a licensed and insured contractor, offering Same-Day Emergency Service because we know that a serious drain issue requires immediate attention.

Eliminate the root cause of your clogs for good. Contact our licensed plumbers for Hydro Jetting service in Englewood at (303) 625-6225 or schedule an appointment online.

Hydro Jetting vs. Traditional Snaking

While drain snaking is effective for punching a hole through minor, superficial clogs, it fails completely when facing the severe, calcified buildup common in Englewood sewer lines. Understanding the fundamental difference between these two methods is crucial for choosing a long-lasting solution.

Snaking uses a metal cable with a cutting head to break up a blockage, but it leaves behind the sticky grease, hard mineral scale, and soap scum adhering to the pipe walls. This residue quickly catches new debris, causing the clog to reform in weeks or months. Hydro Jetting, however, is a non-chemical method that uses highly pressurized water (often up to 4,000 PSI) delivered through a specialized nozzle. This force blasts away all debris, scale, grease, and even stubborn tree roots, scouring the interior walls of the pipe clean. This comprehensive deep cleaning restores your pipes to a near-original condition, providing the most reliable preventive maintenance available for your sewer system.

  • Snaking: Only creates a small hole through the blockage, leaving behind sticky residue on pipe walls where clogs quickly reform.
  • Hydro Jetting: Blasts the entire circumference of the pipe wall clean, removing years of accumulated grease, mineral scale, and root fragments.
  • Tree Roots: Hydro Jetting's powerful water stream is capable of cutting through dense root intrusions that a plumbing auger cannot effectively clear.
  • Long-Term Value: The deep cleaning action extends the life of your plumbing and significantly reduces the need for expensive, recurring service calls.

Our Safe and Effective Hydro Jetting Process

Because Hydro Jetting uses immense water pressure, Blue Sky Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric approaches every service with extreme caution and professional protocol to protect your Englewood property's plumbing integrity. Our process prioritizes diagnosis before we begin the high-pressure cleaning.

Before we start working in your home, we start by listening to you and your concerns. Our experienced technicians, who are vetted through comprehensive background checks and safety training, will first perform a sewer camera inspection. This step is vital to assess the condition of your pipes, identify any weak, corroded, or cracked sections, and confirm the exact nature of the blockage (e.g., grease, roots, offset pipe). If the pipe is deemed safe and structurally sound, we proceed with the Hydro Jetting, using precise water pressure tailored to your pipe material. The result is a fully cleared, clean line, backed by our "We Do It Right" standard and an exclusive one-year warranty on parts and labor.

  • We begin with a camera inspection to diagnose the precise problem and ensure your pipes are structurally sound enough to handle the high pressure.
  • Our licensed plumbers tailor the water pressure settings to the type of blockage and pipe material (PVC, cast iron) to ensure safety.
  • The jetting nozzle is guided through the line, using powerful reverse jets to scour and propel all debris out of your system.
  • Once the pipe is clear, we perform follow-up tests to confirm the blockage is completely removed and the flow is fully restored.

Why Pipe Inspection is Crucial Before Hydro Jetting

The power of Hydro Jetting is its greatest strength, but that strength demands the professionalism of an expert to wield safely. The biggest risk to Englewood homeowners is hiring an unvetted contractor who proceeds with high-pressure cleaning without first inspecting the pipe's internal condition.

Older pipes, especially those in the Denver Metro area that have endured over 100 years of use, often have pre-existing cracks, corrosion, or misaligned joints caused by shifting Colorado soil. Applying high-pressure water to a fragile pipe can easily turn a clog into a catastrophic sewer line collapse, leading to excavation and thousands of dollars in repairs that you might be held liable for if the contractor is uninsured. Our licensed plumbers and technicians are trained to avoid this risk. By performing a camera inspection first, we uphold our code of ethics, ensuring we provide an honest dealing that prioritizes the long-term protection of your home and budget.

  • Why is my drain clogged? I’m so careful!

    We believe you when you tell us that you are so careful about putting grease down your drains. Unfortunately, most people end up putting it down accidentally no matter how hard they try to do the opposite. When you rinse plates, bowls, pots, and pans in your sink, they often have a thin layer of grease on them. This gets rinsed down the drain with the rest of the debris from your plate. When this grease contacts a cold pipe downstream from the kitchen sink, it solidifies and attaches to the pipe wall. Over the years, even the smallest amounts of grease can build up and cause clogs. Don’t worry, though! Your Blue Sky plumber will get that clog out fast!

  • What kind of sink should I get?

    When it comes to getting a new sink, you have many options. These include:

    • Cast iron
    • Stainless steel
    • Corian
    • Fiberglass
    • Enameled steel
    • Acrylic
    • And more!

    When our experts help you install a sink, we’ll ask you what you plan to do with it. Will you wash dishes in it regularly? Is it likely you will drop dishes or silverware in it? Then, we’ll ask you about your preferences. Do you want a large sink or a small one? Do you want a sink that sits on top of the counter or below the counter level? Once we know the answers to these questions, we’ll work with you to find the perfect kind of sink for your home. In general, cast iron and stainless steel are more durable than some other types of sinks, but they may require special care.

  • What kind of water heater should I get?

    Most of the time, the type of water heater you get will be determined by the type of connections you already have. Unless you are highly motivated to change the type of water heater that you have, the best choice is usually to get the same kind that was installed before. If you are in a place to change the type of water heater that you have, gas is often the better option. It is cheaper and can heat larger quantities of water faster. However, gas water heaters are usually larger than electric ones and you cannot store flammable liquids nearby.

  • Does Blue Sky Offer Commercial Plumbing Services?

    Absolutely. No matter if you are a homeowner or a business owner, we’ve got your plumbing in Denver covered! We offer full commercial plumbing services for old or new buildings. Visit our Commercial Plumbing page to learn more about our plumbing services for businesses!

  • What is hydro jetting?

    Hydro jetting offers a way to clean your drains without digging up your yard or pulling your home apart to access clogged pipes. Instead, we use a tool that sprays highly-pressurized water into your pipes. We control the pressure of the water and where it sprays, so we can remove your clog and clean your entire pipe. A hydrojetting tool has one nozzle that sprays forward and 6-8 that sprays backward. On the first pass, the reverse-facing jets propel the nozzle forward while the front one breaks up clogs. When we pull the nozzle back through the pipe, the reverse jets scour the edges of the pipe until they look like new. If your plumber thinks that hydrojetting is a good option for you, we’ll let you know and get the job done fast.

  • What is the best kind of pipe for my home?

    Most of the time, we suggest plastic or PEX/PVC piping for your home. This material lasts for a long time because it doesn’t rust and is less likely to crack or break than some other types of pipe. Unless you are in a very specific situation, which our plumbers will discover, we highly recommend this type of piping for your home.

FAQs About Hydro Jetting in Englewood

Is Hydro Jetting safe for my old cast iron sewer pipes? 

Hydro Jetting is safe for structurally sound cast iron and PVC pipes, but the pressure can damage existing cracks or weak spots. Our licensed plumbers always perform a camera inspection before jetting to ensure the procedure is safe for your Englewood home's specific plumbing system.

Is Hydro Jetting more expensive than drain snaking? 

The initial cost of Hydro Jetting is often higher than snaking due to the specialized equipment. However, snaking only provides temporary relief, while Hydro Jetting provides a comprehensive, long-lasting deep clean that prevents costly, recurring clogs. This makes it a more cost-effective solution in the long run.

How long does the Hydro Jetting service take to complete? 

Because we are efficient and our trucks are fully stocked ("warehouse on wheels"), we are able to complete most repair jobs in one day. The actual jetting time depends on the pipe length and blockage severity, but our goal is always fast, same-day service.

What kind of guarantee comes with the service? 

We back up all of our work with our exclusive one-year warranty on parts and labor. Furthermore, our Blue Sky Satisfaction Guarantee means we will re-do the service at no additional cost if you are dissatisfied within the first year.
