High Pressure Drain Cleaning for Homes, Strata and Businesses
Blocked drains don’t fix themselves, and a plunger only goes so far. Whether it’s a kitchen drain backing up with grease, a sewer line choked with tree roots, or a stormwater system that’s given up during heavy rain, hydro jet drain cleaning cuts through the cause, not just the symptom.
At Coffison Plumbing and Gas, we use professional-grade hydro jetting equipment to restore full flow to pipes that chemical treatments and manual snaking simply can’t touch. We service homes, strata complexes, and commercial sites across Redcliffe, Moreton Bay, and North Brisbane, with same-day availability and no hidden call-out fees.
Our team is fully licensed and insured, and every job comes with a 12-month workmanship guarantee. You’ll know exactly what we’re dealing with before any work begins.
What Our Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning Service Can Include
Every pipe relining job begins with understanding what’s actually happening underground. Coffison’s process is diagnostic first, solution second — so you only pay for work that’s genuinely needed.
Grease and Organic Build-Up Removal
Kitchen drains — in homes and especially commercial kitchens — collect fats, oils, and food residue that gradually coat pipe walls and reduce flow. High pressure drain cleaning blasts this accumulation away completely, leaving the pipe interior clean rather than just partially cleared.
Tree Root Intrusion
Roots follow moisture, and older clay or PVC pipes can crack just enough to let them in. A hydro jet cuts through root masses that have taken hold inside the line. Depending on the extent of damage, we may recommend a CCTV drain inspection afterwards to check pipe condition.
Stormwater and Sewer Line Blockages
Stormwater drains can fill with sediment, leaves, and debris over time — often going unnoticed until heavy rain reveals the problem. We clear these lines for residential properties, strata buildings, and businesses across the Redcliffe area so water moves where it's supposed to.
Maintenance Jetting for Strata and Commercial Sites
For body corporates and businesses managing shared drainage infrastructure, scheduled hydro jet drain cleaning keeps lines clear before problems develop. This is a cost-effective approach compared to emergency callouts, and we can set up a maintenance plan to suit your site.
Pre-Sale or Post-Blockage Clearance
If you're preparing a property for sale, or have just dealt with a recurring blockage, a hydro jet clean gives you a clear starting point. Combined with a CCTV inspection, it's one of the most thorough ways to assess and restore a drainage system.
How Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning Works
The Equipment
A hydro jet unit pumps water through a flexible hose at pressures typically ranging from 1,500 to 5,000 PSI, depending on the pipe size and type of blockage. The nozzle at the end is designed to blast forward and simultaneously sweep backwards, which means it clears the obstruction ahead while scouring the pipe walls behind it. That combination is what separates hydro jetting from a drain snake — the pipe doesn't just get unblocked, it gets cleaned.
What Happens Before We Jet
For most straightforward blockages, we'll assess the drain, confirm the pipe material and condition, and get started. Where there's a recurring problem or visible damage, we'll recommend a CCTV camera inspection first. Running a camera through the line takes the guesswork out of it — we can see exactly what we're dealing with, whether that's a fat build-up, root intrusion, a collapsed section, or something else entirely.
During the Job
We insert the jetting hose into the drain access point and work through the line systematically. The water pressure does the heavy lifting, and the debris is flushed through and out. Jobs typically take between 30 minutes and a couple of hours depending on the pipe length and condition. We'll keep you informed as we go, particularly if we find anything unexpected.
After the Clean
Once the line is clear, we can do a quick flush test to confirm flow has been fully restored. If a CCTV inspection is needed post-jetting — to verify the pipe is structurally sound or to locate a suspected crack — we carry the camera equipment with us and can do that on the same visit. You won't need to book a second appointment.
Signs You May Need Hydro Jet Drain Cleaning
Not every slow drain needs a hydro jet, but some situations make it the most practical option. These are the common indicators:
- Recurring blockages — if the same drain has blocked twice or more within 12 months, the underlying build-up hasn’t been fully cleared
- Multiple drains running slow at once — this often points to a partial blockage further down the main line rather than individual fixtures
- Gurgling sounds after using sinks or toilets — air being pushed back through the system is a sign of reduced flow somewhere in the line
- Strong odour from drains — grease and organic matter trapped in pipes breaks down over time and produces a persistent smell that doesn’t go away with cleaning products
- Water pooling in the yard after rain — a blocked stormwater drain is often the culprit, and high pressure drain cleaning is one of the most effective ways to clear sediment and debris from longer outdoor runs
- A property that’s been vacant — drains in unoccupied homes or investment properties can accumulate debris more quickly without regular water flow to keep things moving
If you’re noticing any of these across a rental, strata building, or commercial property in the Redcliffe region, it’s worth getting the line inspected rather than waiting for a full blockage.
