Can I jet wash my drains?
Many home owners may be tempted to use a domestic jet washer to clear a blockage, however a domestic washer does not propel the appropriate level of force. In addition, if the pressure isn’t strong enough to clear the blockage, excess water will result in the drain filling up and flooding the surrounding area creating an environmental hazard.
Our drainage engineers are equipped with specialist, self contained jetting machines specifically designed for usage in drains.
The force of a pressurised water jet, if used incorrectly, can damage fragile pipework, so should only be carried out by trained professionals that have assessed the drainage system and determined the appropriate method of drain clearance.
