Professional Hydro Jetting Services in Gurnee, IL
Recurring drain clogs often indicate that more than a simple blockage is restricting your plumbing system. Grease, soap residue, mineral deposits, sludge, and other debris can build up along the inside of pipes over time, reducing water flow and increasing the likelihood of future backups. C.A.B. Backflow provides professional hydrojetting in Gurnee, IL, using high-pressure water to thoroughly clean drain and sewer lines and restore proper flow.
With more than 30 years of plumbing experience, our licensed, bonded, and Illinois EPA certified plumbers use hydrojetting to remove stubborn buildup from residential and commercial plumbing systems.
What Is Hydrojetting?
Hydrojetting is a drain and sewer cleaning method that uses highly pressurized water to remove buildup from the inside of plumbing pipes. Unlike methods that simply create a small opening through a clog, hydrojetting cleans the interior pipe walls, helping restore the pipe's full carrying capacity.
This service is commonly used to remove:
- Grease buildup
- Soap residue
- Mineral deposits
- Scale buildup
- Sludge
- Food waste
- Organic debris
- Light root intrusion
- Hair accumulation

Hydrojetting vs. Snaking: What Is the Difference?
Both hydrojetting and drain snaking are effective plumbing solutions, but they are designed for different situations.
01
Drain Snaking
Drain snaking uses a flexible cable with a cutting or boring attachment to break through a blockage and restore water flow. It is often an effective solution for isolated clogs caused by paper, hair, or small obstructions.
02
Hydrojetting
Hydrojetting, on the other hand, uses high-pressure water to clean the entire inside surface of the pipe. Instead of creating a narrow opening through the blockage, it removes grease, sludge, mineral buildup, and other debris that coats the pipe walls.
Our plumbers inspect your plumbing system before recommending either service. The best option depends on the condition of the pipes, the type of blockage, and the underlying cause of the drainage problem.

Signs Hydrojetting May Be the Right Solution
Hydrojetting is often recommended when recurring drain problems indicate that buildup extends throughout the plumbing system rather than being limited to one isolated clog.
You may benefit from hydrojetting if you experience:
- Frequent drain clogs
- Slow-draining sinks or floor drains
- Multiple drains backing up
- Recurring sewer line blockages
- Grease buildup in kitchen drain lines
- Persistent sewer odors
- Commercial kitchen drain issues
- Gurgling sounds from plumbing fixtures
- Water backing up into lower-level drains
After evaluating your plumbing system, our team determines whether hydrojetting is appropriate or whether another repair method would better address the problem.

Hydrojetting vs. Snaking: What Is the Difference?
Both hydrojetting and drain snaking are effective plumbing solutions, but they are designed for different situations.
Initial Inspection
We begin by evaluating your plumbing system and discussing the drainage issues you have experienced.
Camera Inspection
When appropriate, a sewer camera inspection is performed to examine the condition of the drain or sewer line. This helps identify cracked pipes, collapsed sections, heavy root intrusion, or other conditions that may affect the cleaning process.
Hydrojetting Service
Once the line has been evaluated, specialized equipment delivers high-pressure water through the pipe, removing buildup from the interior walls and flushing debris through the system.
Final Verification
After cleaning is complete, we verify that the drain or sewer line is flowing properly and review the results with you. If additional repairs are recommended, we explain the reasons and answer your questions.

What can we do for you?
Is hydrojetting safe for older pipes?
Hydrojetting can be safe for many plumbing systems, but the condition of the pipes should always be evaluated first. We inspect the sewer or drain line before recommending hydrojetting to ensure the pipes are suitable for this cleaning method.
How is hydrojetting different from snaking?
Drain snaking breaks through a blockage to restore flow, while hydrojetting uses high-pressure water to clean buildup from the inside of the entire pipe. Hydrojetting is often recommended for recurring clogs caused by grease, sludge, or mineral buildup
How often should hydrojetting be done as maintenance?
The recommended schedule depends on the condition of your plumbing system and how the drains are used. Some commercial properties benefit from routine hydrojetting, while many residential properties only require the service when significant buildup develops.
Can hydrojetting remove tree roots from a sewer line?
Hydrojetting can help remove light root intrusion and flush debris from sewer lines. If large roots or damaged pipes are present, additional sewer repair or replacement may also be necessary.
Does hydrojetting use any chemicals?
No. Hydrojetting relies solely on highly pressurized water to clean the inside of drain and sewer pipes. It does not require chemical drain cleaners, making it an effective cleaning method for many plumbing systems.
