High Pressure Water Jetting in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire

You might have tried the old-school drain rods yourself, or seen someone else use them. They're alright for a quick fix, but they often just punch a small hole through a blockage rather than clearing it properly. Think of our high-pressure jetting as a deep clean for your plumbing. This isn't just a fancy garden hose; our professional van-pack units deliver water at up to 4,000 PSI. That's enough power to strip away years of uric scale, limescale, and hardened grease. It cleans the full diameter of the pipe, meaning you're far less likely to see that blockage return a few weeks later. It's the difference between a quick dust and a full spring clean.

If you're running a busy restaurant near the Grand Arcade or a cafe on Mill Road, you'll know all about FOG—Fat, Oils, and Grease. Over time, these substances build up in your pipes, creating solid masses that can shut down a commercial kitchen in hours. Our commercial drainage team specializes in tackling these 'fatbergs' before they cause a disaster. We don't just do emergency call-outs either; we offer pre-planned maintenance (PPM) to keep your grease traps and lateral drains free-flowing. It’s much cheaper to have a scheduled jetting session than it is to close your doors to customers because of a backup.

Cambridge is famous for its beautiful, leafy streets, but those trees have roots that are experts at finding tiny cracks in old clay pipes. Once they're in, they grow quickly, catching debris and causing recurring blockages that no amount of chemicals will fix. Our high-pressure equipment is powerful enough to cut through these root masses without the need for messy excavations. Often, we'll follow up a jetting session with a CCTV drain survey to see exactly what's going on down there. If the roots have caused damage, we can even carry out no-dig repairs or drain relining to seal the pipe back up, saving you the hassle of digging up your driveway.
