Our Drain Cleaning Process
We don't just clear the clog - we ensure your drains are flowing freely and help prevent future problems.
Inspection
We start with a thorough inspection, often using video camera technology to identify the exact location and nature of the clog.
Clearing
Using professional-grade equipment like drain snakes, augers, or hydro jetting, we clear the blockage completely.
Prevention
We clean the drain thoroughly and provide recommendations to prevent future clogs, keeping your drains flowing freely.
Hydro Jetting in Chula Vista — The Most Thorough Drain Cleaning Available
Standard drain snaking breaks up clogs and restores flow — but hydro jetting completely cleans the inside of your pipes. Using water pressure up to 4,000 PSI, our hydro jetting equipment blasts away grease, mineral scale, tree roots, and years of buildup from the pipe walls themselves. For Chula Vista homes with recurring clogs or older cast iron drain lines, hydro jetting is often the only permanent solution. We always perform a video camera inspection before hydro jetting to ensure the pipes can handle the pressure safely.

What is hydro jetting and do I need it?
+
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water (up to 4,000 PSI) to completely clean the inside of your pipes rather than just breaking up a clog. You likely need hydro jetting if your drains clog repeatedly despite regular snaking, if you have older cast iron pipes with heavy buildup, or if a video inspection shows significant grease or scale on pipe walls. It is the most thorough drain cleaning method available.
Why do my drains keep clogging even after cleaning?
+
Recurring clogs usually indicate one of three things: the initial cleaning didn't fully clear the line, there is a structural issue like a broken pipe or bellied section causing debris to collect, or tree roots are actively growing into your sewer line. A video camera inspection is the fastest way to diagnose the real cause. Hydro Hero Plumbing offers camera inspection as part of our drain cleaning service.
