High Pressure Water Jetting in Royton , Oldham

Older clay drains handle high-pressure water jetting perfectly well when the water pressure is controlled properly. Our van-mounted units let us adjust the PSI to scour away stubborn silt, fat, and wet wipes without cracking the pipe walls or blowing out old mortar joints. We assess the age and run of your pipework first so we blast the blockage, not your drain.

Our Drain Medics vans carry on-board water tanks with enough capacity to clear most domestic blockages without touching your supply. If we run into stubborn fatbergs or heavy silt that needs a prolonged flush, we may ask to top up from an outside tap or cold feed. We carry all our own hoses, standpipes, and fittings, so you do not need anything set up before we arrive.

Drain rods usually just punch a small hole through the middle of a blockage, leaving thick grease, soap scum, and baby wipes stuck to the pipe walls. High-pressure water jetting uses rear-facing propulsion jets to scrub the full internal circumference of the drain clean. That emulsifies the debris and flushes it straight through to the main sewer, stopping paper from snagging and backing up again.

Yes, but we swap out the standard washing nozzles for specialist spinning root-cutting heads driven by water pressure. The high-velocity water jets spin hardened blades that slice root masses flush to the pipe wall, flushing the shredded roots downstream. Once the pipe is open, we can run a camera down to see exactly which joint the roots entered through.

No, because our engineers always jet from an external manhole or access gully outside the house, working upstream against the blockage. The jetting nozzles point backward, pulling the hose into the pipe and forcing all the waste and pressure away from your home toward the sewer. We also check soil vents and gullies beforehand to make sure air pressure does not burp water out of internal U-bends.
