Hydrojet Drain Cleaning in Melbourne
Powerful High-Pressure Drain Clearing
At Hydro-Jett, we use the latest hydrojet technology to clear blocked drains and keep your drains and plumbing systems running smoothly across Melbourne and surrounding suburbs. If you’re dealing with reoccurring drain blockages, slow drains, or tree root intrusions, our expert team is here to help.
🔧 What Is a Hydrojet?
A hydrojet is a powerful drain-cleaning tool that uses high-pressure water to blast through debris, grease, build up of tampons, sanitary items, sludge, and even tree roots. This method is highly effective for:
Clearing blocked drains
Removing built-up grease and grime
Cleaning stormwater and sewer lines
Maintaining commercial plumbing systems
Hydro jetting is safe, eco-friendly, and suitable for both residential and commercial properties in Melbourne. At Hydro-Jett Plumbing we have commercial grade equipment to meet the needs of all our client.
🌳 Blocked Drains from Tree Roots?
Melbourne’s mature trees can wreak havoc on underground pipes. If your drains are blocked by tree roots, our hydro jet system can:
Break up and flush out root intrusions
Restore normal water flow
Prevent further damage with ongoing maintenance
In severe cases where the root system has damaged the pipe, we’ll provide a comprehensive inspection and a no-obligation quote for pipe repair or replacement.
🚽 Why Is My Toilet Blocked?
Toilet not flushing properly? It could be caused by a blockage deeper in your drainage system. Common culprits include:
Tampons and sanitary pads
Wet wipes (even the ‘flushable’ kind)
Nappies, tissues, and foreign objects
These items may flush, but they don’t break down like toilet paper, leading to blocked toilets and blocked drains. We always advise our Melbourne clients to avoid flushing anything other than human waste and toilet paper.
🧸 What’s Blocking Your Drain?
Blocked drains can result from more than just waste or roots. Over the years, we’ve found all sorts of objects during our drain cleaning services across Melbourne — including:
Children’s toys (like a toy donkey!)
Shampoo bottles and balls
Hygiene products and household waste
Even if you're cautious, guests or young children or teenagers might unknowingly cause a blockage.
🛠️ Preventative Hydrojet Maintenance for Melbourne Properties
Prevent major issues before they arise with scheduled hydrojet maintenance. This is ideal for:
High-use residential homes
Commercial kitchens
Apartment blocks and body corporates
We recommend 6-monthly maintenance for high-demand systems. Keeping your drains clean prevents build-up, backups, and costly emergency repairs.
