At Plomberie 5 Étoiles, we use professional-grade hydro jetting equipment for homes, restaurants, condos, and commercial buildings across Montreal, Laval, the North Shore, and the South Shore. Every job begins with an assessment — often a drain camera inspection — so we target the right problem with the right pressure and nozzle before we jet.
When your drains are severely clogged or your main sewer line is backing up, basic methods like plunging or snaking aren’t always enough. At Plomberie 5 Étoiles, we specialize in drain cleaning, camera inspection and in high-pressure drain cleaning, also known as hydro jetting. This advanced technique uses powerful water pressure to clear grease, roots, and debris, restoring your pipes and preventing future blockages.

Well done guys, they've earned their 5 stars My kitchen sink wasn't flushing despite the underneath pipes being clean. My basement toilet was out of order. I called them at 9:30am, the man clearly explained the fees wit…

High-pressure drain cleaning is a professional process that relies on a specialized machine to send a stream of water at extremely high pressure through your pipes. Unlike a mechanical auger or drain snake, which only punches a hole through the obstruction, hydro jetting cleans the entire inside diameter of the pipe. The result is a system that flows freely, as if it were new.
This method is not only effective but also safe for your plumbing system when performed by trained professionals. It avoids harsh chemicals, making it an eco-friendly solution for both homes and businesses.

Choosing high-pressure drain cleaning brings several advantages over traditional methods:
High-pressure drain cleaning is not just for emergencies, it’s also an excellent preventative service. You may need it if:
By scheduling hydro jetting before a major blockage occurs, you can avoid costly water damage, emergency repairs, and unpleasant backups.
Grease, fats, and cooking oils are among the most common causes of drain blockages in both residential kitchens and commercial food-service operations. Over time, these substances cool and solidify on pipe walls, narrowing the passage until water can barely flow through. A standard drain snake cannot remove this coating — it simply punches a temporary hole through it.
Hydro jetting eliminates grease buildup completely. The rotating nozzle sends high-pressure jets forward to blast through the accumulation while rear-facing jets propel the nozzle through the pipe, scouring the walls clean in a single pass.
The rotating nozzle uses forward penetration jets to blast through grease deposits while backward jetting propulsion self-drives the hose through the pipe — cleaning every inch of the pipe wall simultaneously.
Hose Feed from the Jetter Unit A high-pressure hose connected to a professional jetter machine enters the drain through a cleanout access point. Water is pressurized to several thousand PSI depending on pipe size and blockage severity.
Backward Jetting Propulsion Rear-facing jets act like a rocket engine, pulling the nozzle deeper into the pipe automatically. This ensures the nozzle reaches the full length of the line with no manual pushing required.
Nozzle Rotation + Forward Penetration Jets As the nozzle spins, its forward-facing jets cut through the grease layer at high pressure. The 360° rotation ensures no residue is left on the pipe walls — unlike snaking which only creates a passage.
Tree and shrub roots are attracted to the moisture and nutrients inside sewer lines. Over years, they infiltrate through pipe joints, cracks, or corrosion points — starting as thin tendrils and growing into dense masses that block the entire drain. Root intrusion is especially common in older Montreal neighbourhoods where mature trees line the streets and sidewalks.
High-pressure hydro jetting cuts through root masses and flushes them out, restoring flow without excavation in most cases. For severe structural root damage, we combine jetting with a camera inspection and may recommend targeted root removal or pipe repair.
Our high-pressure drain cleaning service is ideal for both homeowners and business owners across Montreal, Laval, the South Shore, and the North Shore.

Yes — when performed by trained professionals using the right nozzles and pressure settings. Before jetting, we assess pipe condition (often with a camera) to tailor the approach and avoid stress on fragile sections.
Snaking usually opens a passage through a clog; hydro jetting cleans the pipe wall all the way around. This removes grease, scale, and residue that would otherwise cause clogs to return.
It can cut and flush out many root intrusions in the main sewer. If camera inspection shows severe structural damage or heavy root mass, we'll recommend targeted repairs or additional root control measures.
We strongly recommend it. A camera helps identify the exact cause (grease, scale, roots, sagging) and confirms that the line is cleared properly after jetting, reducing repeat issues.
For typical homes, only when symptoms appear or after major renovations. For restaurants, condos, or high-use systems, preventative jetting every 6 to 12 months can dramatically reduce emergencies.
Clear access to cleanouts, utility rooms, or mechanical spaces. Let us know about previous issues, renovations, or any strong odors or gurgling noises you've noticed. We'll handle the rest.
