Local plumbing expertise
Hydro jetting uses controlled high-pressure water to scour a drain or sewer line back to its full diameter, clearing out grease, sludge, scale, and roots. It's the deep-clean option Elite Rooter's licensed plumbers in Colorado Springs, CO recommend when a line keeps clogging or a camera shows heavy buildup, and it's safe for pipes when done by a pro who inspects first.
Phone lines are answered 24/7. Service is scheduled Monday through Friday, 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Saturday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Know the signals
One symptom can be minor. Several together usually point to a larger issue.
Clogs that return weeks after snaking
Grease-heavy kitchen lines that slow down again and again
Root intrusion found on a camera inspection
Years of buildup in an older main line
Local conditions
Colorado Springs plumbing lives an outdoor life at 6,000 feet. The building code here assumes a 30-inch frost depth and winter design temperatures around zero, so a supply line run shallow or an uninsulated hose bib is a burst waiting for the right cold snap.
The ground moves too: the Colorado Geological Survey has mapped expansive, steeply dipping bedrock under parts of the city, the kind of soil movement that opens joints in buried sewer lines. Once a joint leaks, roots find it; the city's own forestry department notes that roots in a sewer line usually mean the line was already failing.
One thing you can stop worrying about is hard water: the utility's published numbers put the snowmelt supply around 2 grains per gallon, genuinely soft, so scale is rarely the villain here. And with almost 4 in 10 local homes built before 1980, a lot of this plumbing is working on its second or third owner.
Jetting earns its keep on root-prone lines here: cutting heads clear the mat, and a maintenance schedule keeps regrowth from ever reaching backup stage.
Right tool, right diagnosis
We match the repair to what is actually happening inside the system.

We inspect the line before jetting to confirm the pipe can take it and pick the right nozzle and pressure. This step is not optional with us: jetting a pipe that is already cracked or paper-thin can turn a maintenance job into a repair job.
Jetting cleans the entire pipe wall instead of punching a hole through the clog. Snaking drills a hole through the clog; jetting scours the pipe back to bare wall, which is why the results last so much longer.
The only reliable fix for grease-bound kitchen and restaurant lines. Restaurant lines and kitchen drains that get monthly snakings usually stop needing service at all once they have been properly jetted.
Jetter root-cutting heads clear intrusions snakes can't.
Straight answers
Jetting is priced by the job in front of us: the length and size of the line, what is stuck to its walls, and how we get in.
A kitchen branch line and a 100-foot main are different setups, different nozzles, and different amounts of time.
Soft grease rinses out fast. Years of hardened scale or a root mat takes multiple passes with cutting heads.
The inspection that confirms the pipe can take the pressure, and the pass afterward that proves the wall is clean, are part of doing this right.
A ground-level cleanout makes this quick. Roof vent or pulled-toilet access adds setup time.

Steven and his team are fantastic. They are very patient in answering questions I had about my water heater issue and found the best solution for my home and family. Highly recommend this team for any plumbing needs you have!
I had elite rooter come out and look at my tankless water heater that was leaking and was working off and on. They responded within the hour... Kivahn and Steve were very polite and professional... They answered all my questions and were very knowledgeable and thorough. I would recommend them to anyone with a plumbing problem.
I called Elite to fix my water heater that decided to stop working. They were able to send someone out in less than an hour and fix the issue before I had to go to work.

Not when the line is inspected first. We camera the pipe, confirm its condition, and match the pressure to the pipe material. That is why jetting is a job for a licensed plumber rather than a rental machine.
Because it cleans the full pipe wall instead of punching a hole through the clog, results typically last years rather than months, especially with a maintenance flush for grease-prone lines.
A snake pokes a hole through the clog so water can pass. A jetter washes the whole pipe wall clean. Snaking is cheaper today; jetting usually costs less over the life of a problem line because you stop paying for repeat visits.
