Hydro Jetting in Bakersfield, CA: The Last Drain Cleaning You'll Ever Need
You’ve paid for a snake job before. It worked for a few weeks. Then the same drain backed up again — and you paid again.
That’s not bad luck. That’s the wrong tool for the job. A drain snake pokes a hole through a clog and calls it done. Hydro jetting blasts grease, sludge, and roots off the pipe walls, the exact buildup that keeps growing back and clogging you again in a few months.
Rescue Hero Plumbing has been clearing Bakersfield’s toughest drains since 1991.
Every technician on the truck is a licensed, insured family member — not a subcontractor you’ve never met. We run a video camera through your line before we start and after we finish, so you can see the results yourself instead of taking our word for it. And every job is backed by our workmanship warranty — if it’s not fixed right, we come back and make it right.
One call. Same-day service, 24/7. No more paying every few months to fix the same problem.
What Our Neighbors Are Saying About Their Plumbing Heroes
What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting is a professional drain-cleaning method that uses a specialized nozzle to blast water at very high pressure through your pipes — strong enough to cut through grease, scale, sludge, and even tree roots that have worked their way into a sewer line.
Unlike a standard drain snake, which typically just pokes a path through a clog, hydro jetting scours the entire interior wall of the pipe clean. That means fewer repeat clogs, better flow, and a longer lifespan for your plumbing system.
We often pair hydro jetting with our sewer line video camera inspection, so we can see exactly what’s causing the blockage before we start — and confirm the line is fully clear once we’re done.
When Do You Need Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting isn’t always the first step for a simple clog, but it’s usually the right call when:
- You have recurring clogs.
- Multiple drains are slow or backing up at once
- You’re dealing with grease buildup, especially in kitchen lines or older homes where years of cooking grease have coated the pipe walls.
- Tree roots have intruded on your sewer line
- You’re doing preventative maintenance on a home with older pipes to clear out buildup before it turns into a backup.
If you’re not sure whether hydro jetting is the right fix, that’s exactly what our video camera inspection is for — we can show you what’s actually happening inside the line before recommending a solution.

FAQ's
Is hydro jetting safe for my pipes?
Yes, when performed by a trained professional. We adjust water pressure based on your pipe material and condition — older or fragile piping is treated with a gentler approach than modern PVC.
How is hydro jetting different from snaking?
Snaking punches a path through a clog. Hydro jetting cleans the entire interior wall of the pipe, removing buildup rather than just clearing an opening — which means fewer repeat clogs.
How much does hydro jetting cost?
It depends on the length of the line, the severity of the buildup, and access to the cleanout. Use our instant online calculator for a starting price range, or call us for a same-day quote.
Smart plumbing maintenance not only prevents costly damage but also helps conserve water. The EPA’s WaterSense program provides valuable tips on saving water and improving efficiency in every home.
