Clear the Cause, Not Just the Symptom
Recurring blocked drains often indicate more than a simple obstruction. High pressure drain jetting removes grease, sludge, silt and debris from the inside of pipes, helping restore proper flow. At Call The Plumber Now we use professional hydro jetting equipment across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Logan, Ipswich and Redlands to provide effective long-term drain cleaning solutions.
At Call The Plumber Now, we do not simply force an opening through a blocked drain and leave. We work to remove the material causing the blockage and, where required, investigate why the drain became blocked in the first place.
What Is High Pressure Drain Jetting?
Hydro jetting uses specialised equipment that delivers water through a purpose-designed nozzle at high pressure. The nozzle travels through the drain, cleaning the internal walls of the pipe while flushing debris from the system.
When Is Hydro Jetting the Best Option?
Hydro jetting is ideal for recurring blocked drains, grease-filled commercial drains, stormwater systems affected by silt and leaves, preventative maintenance and preparing pipes for CCTV inspections or pipe relining.
What Can Hydro Jetting Remove?
Grease, fats, soap residue, hair, food waste, mud, silt, sand, leaves, organic matter, light root intrusion where appropriate, scale deposits and other loose debris can often be removed using hydro jetting.
When Another Repair May Be Better
If CCTV inspections reveal a collapsed pipe, major root intrusion or severe structural damage, repairing or replacing the pipe may be more appropriate than repeated cleaning.

How We Diagnose the Problem
We assess the symptoms and, where appropriate, recommend CCTV drain camera inspections before or after jetting. This helps identify whether the blockage is simply debris or part of a larger structural drainage issue.
At Call The Plumber Now, we do not simply force an opening through a blocked drain and leave. We work to remove the material causing the blockage and, where required, investigate why the drain became blocked in the first place.
Queensland Conditions
Heavy summer storms, mature gum and fig trees, commercial grease build-up, reactive clay soils and older underground pipework all contribute to blocked drains across South East Queensland. Hydro jetting is often one of the most effective ways to restore these systems when used appropriately.
What an Experienced Plumber Wants You to Know
If your drains keep blocking every few months, don’t assume another clean is all that’s needed. Recurring blockages are frequently caused by tree roots, cracked pipes or pipe movement. Hydro jetting restores flow, but finding the underlying cause is the best way to avoid repeated emergencies.
Why Choose Call The Plumber Now
We combine experienced plumbers, professional hydro jetting equipment and modern diagnostic technology to provide practical long-term solutions rather than temporary fixes.
