Rooter & Jetter to clear the Blockage

One of the most effective tools in cleaning drains are the water rooter and jetter. This is a combination of two tools that work in tandem to clear out drains of the toughest materials. The rooter uses sharp blades to cut into the material that is creating the blockage. The blades chew up the material which makes it loose and easy to push down the drain.

The jetter is the follow-up tool that uses a high-pressure water jet to force the material which has been loosened by the rooter down the drain. The combination is so potent that it works against tree roots which can be quite strong. It will work on other materials such as grease and hair while not damaging the drain pipe itself.

If tree roots are the cause of the blockage, then the drain may have to be repaired. The removal of the roots will only be temporary if either the source of the roots is not removed or the drain itself remains vulnerable. Sealing the drain may require digging it up, but in many cases the drain can be repaired using a flexible sleeve that is slipped inside the drain pipe once it has been cleared.

Whether you live in Noosa, Marcus Beach, or in the Sunshine Coast, having the services of a professional plumber is welcome when facing issues with your drains and plumbing. A block in the drain can be remedied with the appropriate equipment that is handled by a professional, such as a jetter that can blast away the material.
