Hydro jetting and mechanical drain cleaning are both effective but serve different purposes. Mechanical drain cleaning uses specialized tools like augers and rotating chains to break up clogs close to the drain. Hydro jetting, on the other hand, uses high-pressure water to clear out stubborn debris throughout the entire pipe system. For deep, heavy buildup or recurring issues, hydro jetting offers a more thorough clean, while mechanical cleaning is perfect for less severe or localized clogs.

At Bonfe Underground, we don’t typically recommend routine drain cleaning unless you’re experiencing consistent issues. Instead, we advise cleaning your drains as needed—like when you notice slow drains, recurring backups, or unusual odors. For persistent problems, such as tree root intrusion, we offer more permanent solutions like sewer liners, which come with a lifetime warranty and help prevent future clogs.

Hydro jetting effectively removes grease, sludge, tree roots, and mineral buildup using a powerful stream of high-pressure water. It’s ideal for deeper clogs and thorough cleaning. Intensive mechanical cleaning using a rotating chain tool, is better for breaking up solid obstructions closer to the surface. By combining both methods as needed, we ensure a comprehensive approach tailored to your plumbing problem.

You should consider calling Bonfe Underground when you notice signs like slow-draining sinks, gurgling noises, persistent foul odors, or multiple backed-up drains in your home. If you’ve tried basic DIY fixes without success, it’s time for professional help to prevent a minor clog from becoming a major issue.

For recurring clogs caused by tree roots or other persistent issues, Bonfe Underground offers a more permanent solution—sewer liners. Our trenchless sewer liners are designed to reinforce your pipes and prevent future root intrusion, giving you peace of mind with a lifetime warranty.

Our process starts with a thorough camera inspection to pinpoint the cause and location of the clog.

This customized approach ensures we effectively resolve your specific plumbing issue without causing damage.

Yes, targeted, as-needed drain cleaning can save you money and stress by addressing blockages before they escalate into bigger problems like sewer backups or pipe damage. While it’s tempting to try DIY solutions, they often only provide temporary relief.
