How much does hydro jetting cost in Austin?

Residential hydro jetting typically runs $350–$800 depending on line length and access. Commercial or severely clogged lines may cost more. Camera inspection is usually included.

Is hydro jetting safe for old pipes?

It depends on the pipe condition. We always run a camera first. If the pipe is fragile, cracked, or deteriorating, we'll recommend an alternative. Jetting is safe for sound PVC, cast iron, and clay pipes.

How often should sewer lines be jetted?

Most residential lines don't need routine jetting. If you have recurring root intrusion or heavy grease buildup, annual or biannual jetting can prevent emergencies. Commercial kitchen lines often need quarterly service.

What's the difference between snaking and hydro jetting?

Snaking pokes through a blockage. Jetting removes the blockage and cleans the pipe walls. Snaking is cheaper for simple clogs; jetting is better for buildup, grease, roots, and recurring problems.

Had three other plumbers tell me I needed to dig up my yard for a sewer line issue. Ironclad did a camera inspection and fixed it with trenchless repair. Saved me thousands.

Called them for a leak under our kitchen sink. They showed up same day, found the problem fast, and fixed it in under an hour. Price was exactly what they quoted.

Our water heater died on a Sunday night. They answered the phone and had someone out Monday first thing. These guys are the real deal.

Drain Cleaning FAQ

How much does drain cleaning cost in Austin?

Most drain cleaning runs between $175 and $350, depending on the drain, the access point, and how stubborn the clog is. You get the exact price before any work starts, and you approve it first.

Do you offer same-day drain cleaning?

In most cases, yes. Same-day availability depends on demand, but we prioritize getting to you fast. For an active backup, call and we will find the soonest window.

Is this a drain clog or a main line problem?

One slow drain is usually a local clog. Multiple slow drains, gurgling toilets, or water backing into tubs and showers point to a main line issue. Your plumber will confirm which.

What if my drain keeps clogging?

Recurring clogs usually mean something deeper. We check for buildup, roots, pipe damage, or a sewer line issue, and recommend a camera inspection when it is warranted.

Do you clean main sewer lines?

Yes. We handle main line clogs and can run a camera inspection when a deeper issue may be the cause, so you know what is going on before you spend on repairs.

What can I try before calling?

For one minor clog, try a plunger or clear visible debris near the opening. Skip the harsh chemical drain cleaners, they can damage pipes. If it keeps returning, hits multiple drains, or causes a backup, call a plumber.
