Hydro jetting in The Hills, Texas
If a drain in The Hills keeps blocking after being cabled, the pipe is still lined with whatever caused it. Jetting removes that material instead of boring a hole through it.
Why drain lines fail in The Hills
Drain lines around The Hills contend with soil that shifts, bedrock that forces shallow or awkward runs, and the sheer pace of construction in this part of Texas. Newer subdivisions are not immune: a line laid with a slight fall in the wrong place will collect solids from the day it is commissioned.
Camera inspection is what separates those cases. A line that holds water because of a belly behaves very differently from one that is simply full of roots, and only one of them is fixed by cleaning.
The Hills sits close to Austin Zoo, about 6.89 miles out, and we cover the whole area around it. Residential, commercial and food service, on the same number.

Signs your line needs cleaning
Most people call us after the second or third of these. Calling after the first is cheaper, because a restricted line is easier to deal with than a blocked one.
- More than one fixture backing up at the same time
- Gurgling from a toilet or tub when the washing machine drains
- Sewage appearing at the lowest drain in the building
- A drain that was cleared recently and is already slowing
- Sewer smell near a cleanout, basement or floor drain
- Standing water at a floor sink or dish pit
- Toilets that need a second flush to clear
- Ponding in a yard or car park long after the rain stops
How a The Hills job runs
The same sequence whether it is a blocked house main at midnight or a scheduled kitchen service before prep.
-
You call and we diagnose over the phone
What is backing up, how many fixtures, and whether there is an accessible cleanout. That tells us what to bring and tells you what to do meanwhile.
-
We inspect before cleaning
A camera pass establishes whether it is roots, grease, scale, a belly holding water or a structural failure. Only some of those are fixed by cleaning.
-
Pressure matched to your pipe
Clay, PVC, cast iron and Orangeburg all need different handling. Old, thin or heavily scaled pipe gets pressure dialled back deliberately.
-
Jet the full run and flush it out
We work the nozzle through the whole length rather than stopping at the blockage, and flush the loosened material out of the system.
-
Re-camera and show you
The second pass is the only honest proof the line is clear. If it shows something cleaning will not fix, you get that straight along with the footage.
Why The Hills customers call us
No upselling off the back of a callout. If the line needs cleaning we clean it, and if the inspection shows the pipe is fine we say that too.
We flush the debris out of the system instead of pushing it downstream. Moving a blockage ten feet along the line is not clearing it; it just relocates the problem somewhere less convenient.
Commercial and kitchen work is scheduled around your hours, normally overnight or before prep, and you get documentation of what was found and done for your maintenance records.
We jet the full run rather than stopping at the blockage. Clearing just past the obstruction is what produces a repeat call a few weeks later, because everything that caused it is still lining the pipe.

The Hills questions
How quickly can you get to The Hills?
It depends on the time and what else is running, which is why we would rather tell you on the phone than publish a number we cannot keep. Backups where waste is entering the building are treated as emergencies and take priority.
Do you serve the area around Austin as well?
Yes. Austin is about 14.2 miles west of The Hills and we cover both, along with the towns in between.
Will jetting fix a broken pipe?
No. Jetting cleans pipe; it cannot repair a collapsed section, a badly offset joint or a line that has fallen and holds water. If the camera shows one of those, we will tell you, even though cleaning is what we sell.
What should I do while I wait?
Stop running water anywhere in the building — no toilets, taps, laundry or dishwasher. Every litre you add has to come out somewhere, and if the main is blocked that somewhere is your floor.
Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?
It is when the pressure is matched to the pipe. Thin, heavily scaled cast iron, old Orangeburg and already-cracked clay need a conservative approach or a different method entirely. That is precisely why we camera the line before jetting rather than after.
Blocked drain in The Hills?
If waste is backing up right now, stop running water anywhere in the building and call. Everything you add has to come out somewhere.
