Hydro jetting vs snaking: both clear a clogged line, but they work differently. Here is how we decide which one a drain needs.

โ Drain Cleaning
โ Sewer Line Repair
โ Hydro Jetting Services

Snaking and hydro jetting are the two main ways to clear a drain or sewer line. We use both every week. Neither is better in every case. The right one depends on what is in the pipe and what the pipe is made of.
A snake is a steel cable with a cutting or retrieving head that spins through the pipe. It breaks through a clog or pulls it back out. It sets up quickly, works in almost any pipe, and is gentle on older lines. Its limit is that it opens a path without cleaning the pipe wall.
A jetter sends water at high pressure through a nozzle that scours the full inside of the pipe. It strips grease, scale, sludge and fine roots and flushes them away. Its limit is that the pipe must be sound enough to take the pressure.
A first-time clog. A single fixture. A toy, wipe or other object in the line. Older or fragile pipe such as Orangeburg. A line where we have not yet seen the inside. See drain snaking and rooter service.
Clogs that return after snaking. Kitchen lines coated in grease. Cast iron with heavy scale. Roots that keep regrowing. Commercial lines. We usually run a camera first. See hydro jetting.

It cleans more thoroughly, but it is not always needed. For a one-off clog, snaking is often enough.
+
Jetting usually lasts longer because it removes the buildup instead of leaving it on the pipe wall.
+
It can damage pipe that is already cracked or badly deteriorated, which is why we inspect questionable lines first.
+
Yes. We often snake first to restore flow, then jet to clean the pipe wall.
+
A cutting head on a cable removes the main root mass, and jetting clears the fine roots left behind. Many root jobs use both.
