Sewer Drain Jetting
Anyone who has ever had to deal with a sewer or even residential septic tank knows all about clogs and back-ups. Soap scum residue, grease, hair, food, mineral deposits and more can all cause a drain to back up. As much as people try to be careful with what they send down the tube, it is almost inevitable that these things will at some time pass through eventually causing clogs. Even as careful as you are with grease- you may not directly dump it down the drain- but the remaining grease on pots, pans and plates can cause a film that over the years can build up and solidify. Sometimes a simple unclogging could do but after masses of build-up and too frequent blockages, perhaps a good sewer jetting would be a more effective method that will also last plenty longer.

If you are a pressure washer contractor, if you haven't already, you may want to consider adding this type of work as a speciality and advertise it well. Many municipalities have sewer lines, storm water lines, catch basins and conduits that when clogged, angry and frustrated residents unite. Knowing there is a solution to keeping these waterways clog-free is sure to keep your phone ringing! In addition, many industrial parks and complexes also have their own lines that may need a professional sewer drain jetting. Property owners and managers of apartment and housing complexes may also be good places to target as these places may also have their own sewers or septic tanks.
It's not just a plumber anymore that can come to the rescue of a clogged drain. Using a sewer jetter can do the job as well.
