High Pressure Jetting from BlockedDrainPlumberMelbourne.au in Melbourne: a fast, non-invasive way to clear serious blockages and restore full flow. Call today for a camera inspection and free quote.

High Pressure Jetting is a type of drain cleaning that uses pressurised water to remove blockages and build-up inside pipes. High Pressure Jetting differs from manual snaking because it cleans pipe walls and removes grease and roots rather than just punching a hole. Melbourne homeowners and small businesses typically need High Pressure Jetting when slow drains, backups or persistent smells keep coming back after simple fixes.

Professional High Pressure Jetting Services in Melbourne

We work on blocked drains for houses, units and shops. You might notice slow sinks or toilets that bubble when the washing machine runs. Sound familiar? That often means there is a deep clog or grease layer. The result? Water won't drain right and smells can get worse.

High Pressure Jetting fixes those problems by blasting water at high speed inside the pipe. It cleans the pipe wall. It strips away roots, fat, soap scum and silt. So flow is restored and the same clog is less likely to come back.

Attempting this yourself can be messy and risky. A DIY jetter often lacks pressure control and camera checks. And you might push the blockage further into the system. Simple. Our team has the gear and training to do the job safely. We also check results with a video camera so you can see the pipe is clear.

Benefits of High Pressure Jetting

Deep Cleaning: High Pressure Jetting removes layers of grease and silt from pipe walls so water flows freely. It uses a powerful water stream that cleans more than a snake can reach.
Root Removal: The jet cuts and flushes roots away when they intrude into older pipes. That reduces repeat blockages caused by tree roots.
Non-invasive Work: The process usually avoids digging. We work from an access point like a drain or inspection opening, so your garden stays intact.

Fast Results: Most jobs clear in one visit because the jetting cleans the whole pipe run. That saves time and limits disruption to your day.
Better Inspections: Camera checks before and after the jet give a clear record of pipe condition. You get video that shows the problem and the outcome.
Longer Pipe Life: Cleaning the pipe interior prevents corrosion and repeated clogs, which helps your plumbing last longer.

What Our High Pressure Jetting Includes

Initial Camera Inspection

We start with a drain camera to find the exact blockage and measure pipe condition. The camera feed tells us where roots, grease or collapsed pipe exists so we can choose the right nozzle and pressure setting.

Controlled Jetting

We use truck-mounted or portable jetters with adjustable pressure. That means we can clear debris without damaging pipes. And we change nozzles to cut roots or lift grease, depending on the issue.

Waste Capture & Cleanup

Debris flushed from the pipe is captured or flushed to a safe discharge point. We clean the work area so you won't find mud or sludge left behind at the access point.

Post-Jet Camera Verification

After jetting we run the camera again and record the footage. That proves the pipe is clear and shows any damage that needs repair. We send the video if you want to keep it.

Signs You Need High Pressure Jetting in Melbourne

Not sure if you need High Pressure Jetting? Here are warning signs Melbourne homeowners and small businesses should watch for:

Slow drainage: Multiple fixtures drain slowly even after plunging. That often means build-up further down the pipe.
Gurgling drains: You hear gurgles when appliances run. That suggests trapped air from a clog.
Repeated blockages: The same drain blocks again soon after a snake. That means the pipe walls still hold grease or roots.

Bad odours: Persistent sewer smells in the yard or home point to trapped waste in the pipe.
Backflow or overflow: Water backing into sinks or toilets is a serious sign of a main line obstruction.
Visible roots or damage near access points: Exposed roots or collapsed sections need a full inspection and likely jetting.

If you notice any of these signs, contact BlockedDrainPlumberMelbourne.au for a professional assessment.

What Affects High Pressure Jetting Cost in Melbourne

The cost of High Pressure Jetting in Melbourne varies based on several factors:

Job complexity

Long blocked runs or multiple blockages need more time and water pressure adjustments. That raises labour and equipment usage for the job.

Access points

If we can reach the pipe from a nearby drain or inspection shaft the job is quicker. Hard-to-reach mains or narrow lanes can add time.

Type of blockage

Grease and silt clean faster than large root masses, which may need multiple passes. Root cutting can add to the time and nozzle wear.

Follow-up repairs

If camera footage shows cracked or collapsed pipe, repairs or relining may be needed. That changes the final cost and we report that clearly.

DIY Snake vs Professional High Pressure Jetting: What Melbourne Homes Should Know

Deciding between a DIY snake and professional High Pressure Jetting matters when clogs keep returning. A snake breaks up a plug but may not clean the walls, while jetting removes the full build-up so the clog is less likely to return.

DIY Snake

Best when:

Single, small blockages near the fixture
Minor hair or small debris clogs
Temporary quick fixes

Considerations: Snakes can push the clog deeper and don't remove grease or roots from pipe walls.

Professional High Pressure Jetting

Best when:

Recurring clogs after snaking
Grease build-up or root intrusion
Long runs or main-line blockages

Considerations: Jetting is more thorough and often avoids repeated visits, but it requires trained operators and camera checks.

Frequently Asked Questions About High Pressure Jetting in Melbourne

Costs vary by access, blockage length and job time. Typical jobs fall in a common price range depending on location and complexity. We provide a clear quote after a camera inspection so you know the final price before work starts.

Most residential jetting jobs finish in 1-3 hours including camera checks and cleanup. Larger mains or severe root problems can take longer and may need a follow-up visit for repairs. We'll estimate time during the inspection.

A DIY snake can work for small, near-fixture clogs but often fails for deep grease or roots. If clogs come back or several fixtures are affected, professional jetting is usually the better and longer-lasting choice. Safety and proper pressure control matter.

We include a pre-inspection with camera, the jetting work itself, debris capture or safe discharge, and a post-jet camera check. You get video evidence and a written quote that lists any further repair needs.

We guarantee workmanship for a limited period and we stand by our camera verification that pipes were cleared. If a related failure occurs soon after service we return and assess. Exact terms are on the service ticket and invoice.

Watch for multiple slow drains, gurgling, sewer smells or repeat clogs after snaking. Those signs usually mean a deep or extensive build-up and that High Pressure Jetting will likely solve the issue more fully than simple snaking.

We cover Melbourne, VIC and nearby suburbs including the CBD and inner north and south. If you're in one of the suburbs listed on our site we'll usually be able to reach you within the same business day for urgent blockages.

Call the number or use the contact link to request service and tell us the symptoms. We ask a few questions, estimate arrival, and confirm price after a camera check. For urgent jobs we aim to attend within a couple hours when possible.

Clear the access area and move vehicles if we need a truck. Turn off appliances if requested. Our team tells you exactly what to do when we confirm the booking so the job starts smoothly and finishes cleanly.
