PLUMBING & DRAIN SERVICES IN BARRIE
It’s not always just something blocking your drain that causes a clog.
Drains and sewer lines can accumulate grease and sludge on the walls over time.
You may have had your drain cleaned and been able to use it, but find that the clog returns.
Hydro-jetting can be useful in these cases.
We provide hydro-jetting services in Barrie to homes and businesses. By using high-pressure water, we are able to jet out material from your drains and sewer lines when needed.

Hydro-jetting allows us to blast high-pressure water through your drain or sewer line.
Hydro-jetting can remove some materials from the inside of your pipe where other methods of drain cleaning may not.
Some examples of what can be removed:
Allowing water to travel through your pipes more easily is what we want to achieve when we jet a drain or sewer line.
Sureflow uses professional-grade water-jetting equipment to clean your drain or sewer line. We will use different equipment depending on what we need to do.
There are many reasons why you would need hydro-jetting on your drain.
Not all clogs require hydro-jetting.
If you have a small clog near a fixture, you can probably use traditional drain-cleaning methods to get the blockage out.
Some reasons you may want to look into hydro-jetting are:
We also want to make sure your line is in good shape before deciding if hydro-jetting is right for you.
Hydro-jetting is when we use our high-pressure pump and hook it up to a hose and special nozzle.
We feed the hose into your line.
Then we shoot water through the nozzle.
The water travels through the line and allows us to cut through certain debris that may be stuck inside.
While travelling through your line, the water helps clear debris.
At Sureflow, we have hydro-jetting equipment that ranges from about 1,000 PSI to 5,000 PSI.
This doesn’t mean we jet every line at its highest PSI.
Your plumber will have to take into account what size line you have and the condition of your line to see what equipment we can use.



One reason why drains will continue to clog is grease.
After pouring grease down your drain, it can be in a liquid state.
Once it cools down, it can stick to your pipe.
Allowing more grease and food to build up on your pipe.
Your pipe can become more restricted as grease builds up.
Causing your drain to slow down.
And eventually, it may become clogged.
Having your drains cleaned will allow a path for water to travel through, but it can leave grease on the side of your pipe.
This may be removed by using hydro-jetting on your line if applicable.
Your main drain and sewer line carry waste away from many different fixtures.
If one of these lines becomes clogged, you may experience many of these issues:
If your drain is clogging due to built-up debris, we may recommend hydro-jetting.
We would need to see what is clogging your line and if the line is suitable for hydro-jetting.
Snaking your drain and hydro-jetting can both unclog your drain.
Snaking your drain uses a cable with an attachment that can go through your line.
It can either break through the clog or cut/remove the clog.
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to unclog your drain.
Not only can it make a path through your clog, but it can also help remove debris that may be on the walls of your pipe.
Depending on what is in your line, you may only need to snake your drain.
Or you may need to hydro-jet your line.



If you continue to have your drain clogged, there could be something else going on.
Grease or other material may be stuck on the sides of your drain.
Something may be building up in that particular spot.
Tree roots could be invading your sewer line.
Your drain could have another issue.
That is why we don’t always hydro-jet a drain when it becomes clogged.
We may want to check what is going on with the line if it keeps becoming clogged.
We may need to camera your sewer line before we decide to hydro-jet.
A sewer camera will allow us to see what’s going on inside your accessible drain or sewer line.
We can see:
By knowing what is in your line, we can decide if we want to hydro-jet or not.
This may also come into play if your sewer line is old and you’re unsure of its condition.
It all depends on your pipe.
Just because your sewer line is old doesn’t mean we can’t hydro-jet it.
However, if your line is in very poor condition, we may have to use different methods.
Which is why we want to know the condition of your line.
If there is anything that leads us to believe your line is damaged, we may camera your line before deciding how we want to clear it.
Tree roots can grow into your sewer line through a crack or defect in your pipe.
They can cause problems when they begin to grow through your sewer line, catching material and causing repeat clogs.
There are cases where we may use hydro-jetting on lines with root intrusion, but it’s not always the answer.
It all depends on how much the roots have grown and the condition of your sewer line.
A camera can be run to check for any signs of tree roots if needed.
If you have a broken sewer line, clearing the line will not fix the issue. You may need the line repaired or replaced.
Over time, kitchen lines can build up with many things such as:
And so much more.
If a line has been getting clogged for a while, there is likely to be a lot of material inside of it.
We can clean out the line, but if basic drain cleaning isn’t doing the job, we can look into hydro-jetting.
Just remember that the line needs to be checked to see if this is necessary. Not all kitchen lines need to be hydro-jetted.
Many commercial buildings put more strain on their drains than an average residential property would.
Restaurants are one example. Restaurants can put large amounts of grease, food and other material into their drainage systems.
There are many properties that could benefit from hydro-jetting their drains. Floor drains, washrooms, kitchen lines, main drains and sewer lines.
If you are experiencing issues with your drains not flowing properly, it could be causing your business to suffer.
Sureflow can help with your commercial hydro-jetting needs here in Barrie.
Restaurants can get heavy buildup in their drains.
There is usually a large amount of grease and food that ends up in the drain lines of a restaurant kitchen.
If your line becomes obstructed, your sink and/or floor drain may start to run slowly or back up.
Which can lead to even more issues when trying to operate your kitchen.
There are some instances where hydro-jetting can be helpful for restaurant drains.
Maintaining your drains can also help avoid blockages when you are open.
Hydro-jetting can be helpful for residential drains as well if needed.
Such as:
If you have had a drain issue and continue to have problems after it’s been cleared out, we may want to look into hydro-jetting.
We will want to figure out what’s causing the issue first.
There are many commercial properties where we can use hydro-jetting.
Some examples are:
It all depends on your drain line and what is blocking it.
No drain-cleaning technique will ensure that your lines will never clog.
Once there is a large amount of debris in your line, it can contribute to future clogs.
It all depends on how fast your lines get dirty.
This can be determined by:
You may have to maintain your lines more often if you have a high-traffic area.
While hydro-jetting is great for cleaning certain drains, there are times when it may not be the right option.
It all depends on what your problem is.
For example:
All of these may call for different types of equipment.
We always want to see what is going on with your line before we use any type of equipment.
If you call us about a drain that keeps getting clogged, we will want to know more information.
Once we know all of this, we can determine if we need to inspect or clean your line before hydro-jetting.
Then we can decide how to best service your drain.
After we have cleaned your line, we want to make sure your water is draining.
Sometimes we will inspect your line after we have hydro-jetted it.
To see if there is anything in your line that may cause another issue.
If your line has any damage or roots in it, we can let you know what you may need to do.
