If you have internal pipes, like a waste pipe or a sink, that have become blocked, then jetting is a simple solution to the problem. As a drain unblocking method, jetting will not only clear the blockage but also clean the pipe. Likewise, jetting can be used on outdoor drains or manholes to help clear them of buildup or debris. Indoor or out, jetting can help solve any blockage.

What is Drain Jetting?
Drain jetting uses powerful, high-pressure water jets to clear blockages, remove debris, and tackle the buildup of fats, oils, and grease. This effective method helps clean and maintain a healthy and free-flowing drainage system.
How Does High-Pressure Drain Jetting Work?
High-pressure drain jetting involves inserting a specialised hose into the blocked drain. Water is pumped through the hose at high pressure, breaking down obstructions and flushing them through the system. This leaves your drains clean and reduces the risk of future issues.
At Metro Rod, we utilise advanced state-of-the-art drain jetting equipment, including Jet Vac Tankers, to tackle complex blockages like tree roots, grease, scale and silt. These powerful machines combine high-pressure jetting with vacuum suction, ideal for clearing pipes, sewers and drains. Our expert engineers ensure your drainage system is restored quickly and efficiently.
Signs You Need Drain Jetting Services
Blocked drains are often caused by a build-up of substances like fats, oils, grease, or non-flushable items such as wipes. Damaged pipes and external intrusions can also lead to blockages.
Key signs of a blocked drain include:
- Toilets filling up or draining slowly
- Sinks and showers draining sluggishly
- Bad odours coming from your drains
- Gurgling sounds from plugholes
- High water levels or flooding around manholes and gullies
If you suspect that your drains may be blocked or if you are experiencing any of the core signs mentioned above, it is important to contact your local Metro Rod team today.
If there is a stubborn clog or debris buildup in your plumbing system that cannot be cleared with traditional or domestic methods like snaking, then you will need more than a plumber.
Metro Rod is unique in that the engineers and equipment are capable enough to handle both domestic and commercial drain jetting needs. The best course of action is preventative maintenance to keep your drains clean and clear of blockages.
Maintaining Your Drains
High-pressure water jetting can also be used as a method of maintaining drains to ensure they remain free from obstruction. Regular jetting and pre-planned maintenance (PPM) can protect pipes and remove excess residue, preventing buildup and future blockages.
