If you feel like you’re calling a plumber every six months for the same backed-up drain, you don’t have a “clog problem”—you have a “pipe problem.” In many Murrieta neighborhoods, mature trees look beautiful in the yard, but their roots are wreaking havoc on the sewer lines underground.

When these roots find a microscopic crack in your pipe, they move in and never leave. This creates what we call the “Forever Clog.”

Why Snaking is Just a Temporary Band-Aid

Most homeowners reach for a traditional drain snake first. While a snake is great for punching a hole through a mass of hair or grease to get water moving again, it doesn’t actually clean the pipe. It’s like poking a hole in a wall of wet paper—eventually, the hole closes back up.

The Power of Hydro Jetting

Hydro jetting is the “heavy artillery” of drain cleaning. Instead of a metal cable, we use a specialized nozzle that blasts water at nearly 4,000 PSI.

• Root Removal: It doesn’t just poke holes in roots; it shears them off completely, flush with the pipe wall.

• Scouring Power: It scrubs away years of “sludge” and grease buildup that a snake can’t touch.

• Full Restoration: It returns your pipe to nearly its original interior diameter.

Is Your Home a Candidate?

Before we blast away, Davis Plumbing and Heating always performs a video camera inspection. This ensures your pipes are structurally sound enough to handle the pressure. If you have older orangeburg or clay pipes that are heavily collapsed, we’ll see it on the screen first so we can discuss the best long-term fix.
