High Pressure Water Jet Drain Cleaning in Brisbane
Blocked drains can cause significant disruptions, leading to unpleasant odors, slow drainage, and potential damage to your plumbing system. At Refresh Plumbing & Gas, we offer high-pressure water jet drain cleaning in Brisbane, providing an effective and eco-friendly solution to remove stubborn blockages and restore proper water flow.
What is High-Pressure Water Jet Drain Cleaning?
High-pressure water jet drain cleaning, also known as hydro jetting, uses a powerful stream of water to clear blockages, debris, and build-up from pipes. A specialized nozzle is inserted into the drain, and pressurized water (up to 5000 PSI) is blasted through, effectively breaking down and flushing out obstructions without causing damage to the plumbing system.
Hydro jetting removes even the toughest blockages, including grease, tree roots, and mineral deposits. Unlike chemical cleaners that can corrode pipes, hydro jetting is a non-invasive and safe method for cleaning drains. Only water is used—no harmful chemicals—making it environmentally friendly and safe for households. Thorough cleaning reduces the likelihood of recurring clogs, ensuring long-term drain health. By addressing blockages effectively, hydro jetting prevents costly repairs and emergency plumbing callouts.

Signs You Need High-Pressure Water Jet Cleaning
If you notice any of the following signs, your drains may require hydro jetting:
- Slow Draining Sinks & Showers – Water takes longer than usual to drain.
- Recurring Blockages – If you frequently experience clogged drains, traditional methods may not be solving the underlying issue.
- Foul Odors – Bad smells from your drains indicate a buildup of grease, waste, or stagnant water.
- Gurgling Noises – Strange sounds from pipes could signal trapped air due to blockages.
- Water Backups – Overflowing toilets, sinks, or floor drains can indicate a severe obstruction.
- Tree Root Intrusions – Roots infiltrate underground pipes, causing damage and persistent blockages.
Before hydro jetting, we assess the condition of your drains using CCTV drain cameras to locate the blockage and evaluate the pipe’s integrity. A specialized hose with a powerful nozzle is inserted into the drain, releasing pressurized water to break up blockages and flush out debris. After clearing the drain, we conduct another inspection to ensure the blockage is fully removed and that your plumbing is in top condition. Our plumbers provide guidance on maintaining clean drains and preventing future blockages.
