Drain Jetting in Exeter
High-pressure drain jetting is the most effective way to clear stubborn blockages. It also cleans Exeter's often ageing pipe systems. Because of that, our specialist equipment cuts through grease, scale, and debris. Even so, it stays gentle on pipe walls.
How drain jetting works in Exeter
1
Initial Assessment
Your engineer checks your Exeter pipes to work out the type, width, and condition. Since this differs by property, it sets the right jetting pressure and nozzle.
2
CCTV Pre-Check
Where it helps, a quick camera check shows what's built up and where. That way, the jetting goes exactly where it's needed.
3
High-Pressure Cleaning
The jetting unit uses a spinning nozzle to scrub the pipe walls clean, pushing debris towards the sewer. Your engineer changes the pressure to suit your pipe type.
4
Post-Jetting Verification
A final camera check confirms the pipe runs clear. We compare before-and-after footage, since that's the clearest way to show the fix, and suggest how often to repeat it.
Our approach in Exeter
Your engineer carefully inserts the jetting equipment and adjusts the water pressure to suit your pipe type. From there, the rotating nozzle scours the pipe walls clean while flushing debris towards the sewer. Local tip: Exeter's hard water supply from South West Water contributes to scale buildup in pipes. Because of that, regular jetting every 12-18 months keeps your system flowing freely.

Drain Jetting in Exeter — FAQs
Is drain jetting safe for older pipes in Exeter?
Yes, when a trained engineer does the work. Since older clay pipes common in Exeter need lower pressure than modern plastic ones, a quick camera check first confirms the pipe can be jetted safely.
How much does drain jetting cost in Exeter?
The cost in Exeter depends on the pipe length and how much has built up. Request a fast, fixed-price quote online, since regular jetting is usually cheaper in the long run.
How often should drains be jetted in Exeter?
For most Exeter homes, jetting every 12 to 18 months keeps drains flowing well. Since big trees nearby and kitchen grease both speed up build-up, those homes may need it every 6 to 12 months instead.
