24/7 Emergency Pluming Services
If your drains keep backing up or draining slowly, there’s a good chance you’ve got years of buildup sitting inside the pipe. Grease, sludge, mineral deposits, tree roots, and years of accumulation can collect inside your pipes and make it harder for wastewater to move properly.
Local Guys Plumbing provides professional hydro jetting services for homeowners and businesses in the greater Spokane area. Hydro jetting uses specialized high-pressure water equipment to break through debris and clean the inside walls of your plumbing lines.
We’ll take a look and tell you straight whether jetting is what you need, or if a cheaper fix will do the job. On lines that can handle it, jetting blasts out grease, sludge, and mineral scale that a snake just pushes past.

Drain problems rarely go away on their own, and deep blockages require more than a temporary fix. If your home's main lines are backed up, gurgling, or constantly clogging, heavy accumulation is choking your system. Watch for these serious warning signs before a stubborn blockage turns into an expensive property emergency.
A drain that keeps backing up every few weeks or months even after plunging or using a standard rooter snake has a thick layer of grease or roots deep in the line that requires high-pressure water to flush out completely.
When water takes forever to drop across several sinks, tubs, and showers at the exact same time, it means the restriction isn't local. The blockage sits deep inside your shared primary drainage system.
Bad sewer smells coming from your drains or basement floor areas often indicate that heavy organic waste, thick sludge, or grease has caked the inside of your pipes, blocking normal ventilation.
Bubbling or gurgling sounds from your plumbing fixtures when you run water or flush a toilet indicate that a deep main line blockage is trapping air inside the pipes, forcing it to bubble backward.
Water pooling or spilling out of your outdoor main sewer cleanout pipe is a definitive sign that wastewater cannot escape out to the city main, requiring immediate high-pressure jetting to clear the path.
When grease and cooking oils build up inside commercial or residential lines, they constrict the pipe's diameter over time until wastewater has almost zero room to flow freely.
Local Guys Plumbing provides several drain cleaning solutions depending on the type and location of the problem.
Professional drain cleaning removes clogs, debris, and accumulation that can interfere with normal water flow and cause recurring drainage problems.
Kitchen drains are almost always a grease problem. We clear it out before it turns into a full blockage under your sink.
Main drain cleaning addresses blockages and buildup in the larger drainage lines that carry wastewater away from multiple plumbing fixtures.
Slow shower drain? Nine times out of ten it's hair and soap scum built up in the trap quick fix.
When a plunger isn't cutting it, we've got the tools to clear whatever's actually stuck down there.
Drain lines collect different materials as wastewater moves through your plumbing system. Over time, these materials can stick to the inside of pipes and gradually reduce the space available for water to flow freely.
Grease and Cooking Oil: Grease coats the pipe wall, cools, and hardens then everything else that goes down the drain sticks to it. That’s how a 4-inch pipe turns into a 1-inch pipe over a few years.
Sludge and Organic Debris: Waste and organic material can accumulate inside drain lines, especially when the plumbing receives heavy use.
Mineral Deposits: Minerals found in water can collect along the inside of pipes. Over time, these deposits can make the passageway smaller and contribute to reduced water flow.
Tree Roots: Roots find their way into old clay or cracked pipe joints looking for water, and once they’re in, they keep growing that’s usually why the same sewer line backs up over and over.
Older Plumbing: Older plumbing systems may have years of buildup inside the pipes. Corrosion, damaged sections, and other conditions can also contribute to drainage problems.
When you contact Local Guys Plumbing for hydro jetting, we first evaluate the drainage problem to determine whether high-pressure water cleaning is appropriate for the plumbing system.
We begin by discussing the symptoms you are experiencing, such as recurring clogs or slow drainage, to help us understand where the issue may be located.
We check what the pipe is made of and how old it is. First, jetting an aging clay line without checking it first is how you turn a clog into a much bigger repair.
Different plumbing lines and buildup conditions require different approaches. Our plumbers select the appropriate equipment and cleaning method for the affected line.
High-pressure water is directed through the plumbing line to break apart and remove accumulated grease, sludge, and other debris.
We run water through the line afterward so you can see it draining clear before we leave.
If the plumbing has conditions that may contribute to future buildup, we can provide practical recommendations to help reduce recurring drainage problems.
Heavy buildup inside your home’s plumbing can affect drainage and contribute to recurring clogs. When grease, sludge, or mineral deposits collect inside the pipes, normal water flow can become restricted.

Professional cleaning can help remove buildup that continues to collect inside the drain line and may help improve the overall flow of wastewater.

Good question, and the honest answer is: it depends on the pipe. Jetting a solid old cast-iron line is fine. Jetting a cracked or already-failing one can make things worse. Before performing any hydro jetting service, our team assesses the condition, material, and age of your plumbing system. If a pipe is fragile, cracked, or structurally compromised, high-pressure water may not be appropriate. In those cases, we will explain the condition of your lines and recommend alternative, safer drain cleaning solutions to resolve the issue.

Recurring clogs, heavy buildup, persistent slow drainage, and repeated drain problems may be signs that a more thorough cleaning is needed.

Hydro jetting can help remove certain root-related buildup from suitable plumbing lines. The condition of the pipe should be assessed before using high-pressure water.
No chemicals at all just water at high pressure. That’s actually one reason it’s easier on your pipes long-term than repeated chemical treatments.
Not necessarily. The condition, material, and age of the plumbing should be considered before hydro jetting is performed. A professional assessment can determine whether it is appropriate.
