Why St. Louis homeowners call for hydro jetting
Jetting uses water pressure matched to pipe material. It is not a DIY pressure washer in a clean-out.
Jetting is only appropriate in lines that can take the pressure. Brick bungalows and two-flats with galvanized and cast iron near the core; later slab ranches south. Nearby towns: University City, Maplewood, Clayton, Affton.
Recurring buildup usually tracks local conditions. Freeze-thaw bursts exposed lines; expansive clay and heavy rain load laterals and basement drains. Common dispatch ZIPs in St. Louis include 63101, 63108, 63110, 63116. Nearby codes are covered — call with yours.
A camera after the jet confirms the line is actually clear. Local contractors know which laterals in your city can take jetting.
