What we do for Meridian homeowners
- Camera-inspect the line first to see exactly what's built up and confirm jetting is the right call
- Jet the full diameter of the pipe at up to 4,000 PSI, stripping grease, scale, and root hair off the pipe wall
- Run the camera again afterward to confirm the line is clear end to end, not just where the water took the path of least resistance
- Recommend a repair or gentler method instead if the pipe's condition calls for it
- Guarantee the workmanship on every completed job
Why Meridian lines need more than a standard cleaning
- Hard water across the Treasure Valley narrows older pipe with mineral scale that a cable auger passes right over
- Mature trees and irrigation-fed soil keep root hair working back into a line that was "cleared" with a snake
- A clog that keeps coming back after repeated snaking is a sign the pipe itself needs the full-diameter clean jetting provides
- Grease buildup from kitchen drains compounds over time into a blockage a cable can't fully clear
What it costs and how long it takes

Frequently asked questions
How much does hydro jetting cost in Meridian?
We confirm the scope with a camera inspection first, then give you a flat-rate written quote before any work starts. Most residential jobs in Meridian run $450 to $1,200 depending on line length and how much buildup we find — you'll always know the number up front.
How fast can you get to a clogged main line in Meridian?
We offer same-day scheduling across Meridian when our schedule allows. Call and we'll tell you exactly what's available for your day.
Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes in Meridian?
We run a camera inspection before jetting to check the pipe's actual condition — sound clay or cast iron, even decades old, handles jetting fine, but severely deteriorated pipe gets a gentler method or a repair recommendation instead.
What's the difference between jetting and a standard drain cleaning in Meridian?
A standard cable auger bores a hole through a clog; hydro jetting scours the full diameter of the pipe with high-pressure water, stripping grease, scale, and root hair off the pipe wall instead of just clearing a channel through the middle.
