Pipes are the backbone of your home’s plumbing system. Keeping them in good condition ensures your plumbing system can support your day-to-day needs.
When your pipes, sewer line, or drains back up, you’ll want help from a reputable plumber. Turn to F.H. Furr Plumbing, Heating, Air Conditioning & Electrical to resolve your plumbing issues. Our team will use an industry-leading method known as hydro jetting to ensure your pipes are kept clear and working well.
What Is Hydro Jetting?
Hydro jetting uses a special hose to push highly pressurized water through your drains to blast away an accumulation of scale, sand, dirt, grease, and other debris.
This method sends water through at 400 psi and will reach the entire diameter of your pipe, ensuring all blockages are wiped out completely.
Why Your Home Needs Hydro Jetting
Scale and other debris can build up on the sides of your pipes over years of use, resulting in clogs and sewer line backups. These blockages make it difficult for your plumbing system to function properly.
You may need hydro jetting services if you notice problems such as:
- Slow-draining pipes
- Gurgling, hissing, and other noises coming from your plumbing
- Frequent clogs
- Foul odors coming from your drains
- Fixtures backing up into other drains

Hydro Jetting FAQs for Richmond, VA Homes
Is hydro jetting worth it?
Yes—hydro jetting is one of the most effective ways to clear tough clogs, tree roots, grease, and buildup from your pipes. It not only restores proper flow but also helps prevent future blockages, making it a smart long-term investment for Richmond homeowners.
How often should hydro jetting be done?
For most homes, hydro jetting every 18–24 months is recommended to keep pipes clear and prevent major clogs. However, older plumbing systems or households with frequent drain issues may benefit from more regular service.
Can hydro jetting damage old pipes?
If pipes are severely corroded, cracked, or already weakened, high-pressure water could worsen the damage. That’s why a professional inspection is always performed before hydro jetting. Our Richmond plumbing team ensures your pipes are safe for the process.
