Hydrojet Plumbers, Salt Lake City, UT
We are your premier Salt Lake City, UT Hydrojet Plumbers and service technicians, specializing in hydro jetting sewer drain lines and clearing blockage.
What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting is the process of clearing clogs and debris buildup on pipe walls throughout the plumbing system, by sending high-pressured water jets through the pipes. This intense cleaning helps prevent the likelihood of future clogs and backups as the water scours the pipe walls to remove grease, food particles, mineral scale, debris, and, in some cases, tree roots.
How Does Hydro Jetting Work?
First, your Drain Detective Plumber will inspect your system to find the ideal spot to insert a hose and begin pumping the water. This high water pressure will force the material blocking the pipes to flow down the sewer system and out of your home or businesses pipes.
But Hydro jetting isn’t as simple as sticking the hose down the drain and firing up the Hydro jetting machine. If you get hydro jetting wrong, you can break your pipes and seriously damage your plumbing system, resulting in a hefty repair bill. For that reason, it’s best to leave this project to a Drain Detective professional plumber who has the right tools and experience to complete this job safely.
Hydro jetting cleans pipes and removes clogs more comprehensively than drain snaking by aggressively flushing the system. It also doesn’t include the use of chemicals, only water.
Snaking is very different then Hydro jetting, snaking punctures clogs and breaks them apart, but it doesn’t reach the pipe walls to grab super stubborn debris. However, snaking is often the chosen method for older homes or businesses with weakened pipes because it’s less intense and doesn’t apply pressure to the pipes as hydro jetting does.
If you’re in any doubt about whether you need a hydro jetting service, it’s worth calling Drain Detective and asking for a camera inspection. The cost of a sewer line camera inspection is insignificant compared with the cost of replacing your sewer line.

Our Salt Lake City Residential and Business Drain Cleaning Services Offers Highly-Effective, Proven Methods for Cleaning Your Drains
- Roto-Rooting: This method uses a series of blades or drills to travel down your pipes to the clog and cut away any roots or debris. Cutting away large chunks of debris creates a wide opening for your sewage and restores normal flow quickly.
- Hydro-Jetting: Hydro-jetting is a treatment that uses high-pressure hoses to completely clean the inside of your drains and sewer lines. It clears away what roto-rooters don’t cut away, and it washes away the debris so your drains enjoy full efficiency for years to come.
Let our trained and certified drain cleaning plumbers handle the problem for you. We’ve been keeping our Salt Lake City clients worry-free for over two decades.
I've been using Drain Detectives for many years. They're always reliable, do good work, and their prices are very reasonable. I've referred a lot of my family to them, and everyone has said the same of them. I'll continue to call them first for all my plumbing needs.

I’ve used drain detectives for a few years for myself and my Real Estate clients. Every time they do the job right, they are very fair in their pricing, responsible and honest. I highly recommend their services.
Elizabeth Cordero
called Matt to come have a look at my toilet that I would usually have to flush twice to get everything down and he was very prompt on his time and actually called and arrived early! He did an acid flush on the toilet and in all the years of living here this toilet has never worked as great as it is working now and its an old toilet! So highly recommend Matt Ostler!
Raymond Leary
matt was excellent. he was a hard worker, knowledgeable, honest and priced reasonably. matt replaced a 50 year old leaking toilet that other plumbers could not or would not fix saying it would be too expensive to fix and replacing it with a new toilet would probable require expensive replacement of wall the tank was attached to and under toilet floor replacement. matt said he did think there would be any damage. he told me he would replace the toilet for the price of fixing the old toilet. he replaced the toilet for the price he quoted and there was no damage to the wall or floor.

I had a issue with a faucet that was more simple than I previously thought. When Drain Detectives came out they pointed out a simple fix that I could make myself then didn't charge me a dime. I'm going to use them for now on.
Josh Wood
We had a pipe burst in our basement. They were very very affordable, professional, timely, and friendly. Many other places quoted me double what they did. I would definately recommend them to anyone. I kept their magnet on my fridge in case i ever have another plumbing need.

Small family business that charges half the price than other plumbers and have twice the quality. They are flexible with their appointments and great work ethic. I highly recommend these guys for their outstanding work!
Max Jacobson
Drain Detectives are FANTASTIC! I appreciate when I am not treated like an idiot with deep pockets. My washer is now draining wonderfully after having these guys jet the drain pipe. I'm so happy I didn't just give $900 to the high profile plumbing company who recommended I replace a pipe that didn't need replacing in addition to the jetting. Reasonable rates, good work, GOOD PEOPLE!
Memorie Morrison
My drains backed up last night and flooded my basement. I spent hours cleaning up the water. I thought that I could get a snake and fix it myself. I was wrong. I looked online for plumbers in my area and found Drain Detectives. I honestly called them because I liked their name and logo. I was quoted a reasonable price and was promised that they would be to my home within an hour. They pulled up maybe 20 minutes after the initial call. They were polite and finished the job quickly. They also cleaned up the area where they were working! I have never had that happen before. They also helped me get the snake I had rented into my car! That was above and beyond what I could expect. They didn't try to tell me that the problem was worse than it was. The price I paid was the price I was quoted!! I will never use another company for my plumbing issues. I highly recommend them!

Matt with Drain Detectives is one of the main plumbers we use for our Home Owners Associations. Drain Detectives is always prompt with timing even on after hour emergencies. We have been very stratified with his work; anywhere from sewer backups, water leaks and also complete sewer and water line replacements. Their pricing is always on point and we never receive a bill with unexpected high costs.
