Hydrojetting for Minneapolis–St. Paul Homes
If you’re tired of dealing with the same drain clog again and again, it’s time for a deeper solution. Northern Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® provides professional hydrojetting services for Minneapolis–St. Paul homeowners dealing with recurring clogs, slow drains throughout the home, or buildup that keeps coming back.
Hydrojetting is typically recommended when drains have reached the point where opening a blockage isn’t enough. Instead of a temporary fix, this service is used to restore proper flow by fully clearing the inside of the pipe so problems don’t immediately return.
When Hydrojetting Is the Right Choice
Homeowners usually consider hydrojetting after dealing with the same issue more than once. It’s often the right solution when:
- Your drains back up often, even after snaking.
- Tree roots or heavy grease buildup have been identified
- Multiple fixtures are draining slowly at the same time
- Backups worsen during rain or snowmelt
- You’re looking for a longer-term fix instead of repeated service calls
Our local plumbers will check your pipes first — if a basic clearing works, we’ll tell you. We don’t upsell you on jetting you don’t need. But when hydrojetting is the right fix, it’s the smartest long-term choice for clean, clear pipes.
Get rid of stubborn clogs once and for all.

Why Homeowners Choose Northern Benjamin Franklin for Hydro Jetting
✔ A reputation built on doing the right work — not the most work.
Hydro jetting is a powerful service, and it isn’t always the first or only solution. Northern Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is trusted across Minneapolis, St. Paul, and surrounding communities because we take the time to determine whether hydro jetting is truly the right fit for your drain system before recommending it.

You’ll know what to expect before work begins. We explain what we’re seeing inside the line, why hydro jetting is recommended (or not), and what results you can realistically expect. No pressure, no surprises, and no unnecessary services.

Is Hydrojetting Safe for My Home?
This is one of the most common concerns we hear — especially from homeowners in older Minneapolis and St. Paul neighborhoods.
Before hydrojetting is performed, our plumbers evaluate the condition of the pipe to make sure the system can safely handle the service. When used appropriately, hydrojetting is a controlled, non-chemical method designed to clean pipes without causing damage.
If the line isn’t a good candidate, we’ll explain why and discuss other options. Our goal is the right solution, not the most aggressive one.
How Hydrojetting Prevents Repeat Clogs.
Hydrojetting is often chosen because it delivers results that last longer than standard drain clearing. By removing buildup along the entire pipe wall — not just punching through a clog — it reduces the conditions that allow debris and roots to reattach.
This is especially helpful in Twin Cities homes where long drain runs, older piping, and seasonal water volume can cause recurring issues when buildup is left behind.

What to Expect from Our Hydrojetting Service
Hydro jetting is designed to be efficient, thorough, and minimally disruptive. Here’s how the process typically works when Northern Benjamin Franklin Plumbing performs the service.
1 – Initial evaluation of the drain or sewer line.
Before hydrojetting begins, we assess the condition of the line to confirm that hydrojetting is the right solution. This step helps ensure the pipe can safely handle the process and that hydrojetting will actually address the underlying issue causing repeat clogs or backups.
2 – Clear explanation and upfront pricing.
Once we understand what’s happening inside the pipe, we walk you through our findings and explain why hydrojetting is recommended. You’ll receive straightforward pricing before work begins, along with an honest explanation of what the service will accomplish.
3 – High-pressure cleaning performed entirely inside the pipe.
Hydrojetting uses controlled, high-pressure water to clear grease, sludge, scale, and debris from the pipe walls. The work happens inside the line — no digging, no harsh chemicals, and no disruption to your home or yard.
4 – Full restoration of pipe flow.
Unlike basic drain clearing, hydrojetting cleans the full diameter of the pipe. This restores proper flow and helps reduce the likelihood of recurring clogs caused by buildup left behind after temporary fixes.
5 – Verification that the line is flowing properly.
After hydrojetting is complete, we confirm that the line is draining correctly and that water is moving freely through the system. This step ensures the service delivered the intended results before we wrap up.
6 – Guidance for preventing future issues.
Before we leave, we review what contributed to the problem and share practical recommendations to help maintain clear drains moving forward. If we see signs that additional service may be needed down the road, we explain why — without pressure.
Most hydrojetting services are completed in a single visit and typically take one to two hours, depending on pipe length and condition. The goal is a thorough, effective cleaning with minimal disruption and results that last longer than standard drain clearing.
Common Homeowner Questions About Hydro Jetting
Is hydro jetting stronger than regular drain clearing?
Yes. Hydro jetting cleans the entire interior of the pipe, not just a path through a clog. That’s why it’s often recommended when drains keep backing up after traditional clearing.
Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?
It can be, but only after evaluation. We assess pipe condition first to make sure hydro jetting is appropriate for the system before proceeding.
Will hydro jetting remove grease buildup completely?
Hydro jetting is especially effective at removing grease, sludge, and buildup that coats pipe walls — a common issue in kitchen drain lines.
Can hydro jetting help with recurring backups during rain or snowmelt?
Yes. By removing restrictions inside the pipe, hydro jetting helps drains handle increased water volume more effectively during seasonal conditions.
How long do hydro jetting results usually last?
Because the pipe is thoroughly cleaned, results typically last much longer than basic drain clearing, especially when buildup was the root cause of the issue.
Is hydro jetting a one-time service or ongoing maintenance?
Most homeowners use hydro jetting as a corrective service, not routine maintenance. We only recommend repeat service if it genuinely helps prevent recurring problems.
