Our drain line cleaning services in Lancaster, Pa provide you peace of mind, knowing your restaurant or business is well taken care of - and staying on top things is key to preventing a backup.


Regular grease trap and drain line cleaning is part of managing a smooth running, profitable business. No one likes to deal with plumbing emergencies when customers are waiting to be served, and grease tank problems can lead to a variety of other issues - like sink, dishwasher and floor drain backups, as well as main sewer line clogs. A high pressure water jet can easily break up debris to keep water flowing freely, and addressing your water and sewer lines before a backup occurs can save you both time and money. Keep reading to learn more about the benefits of high pressure jetting or give us a call today. We provide sewer and grease trap maintenance in Lancaster, Pa and the surrounding Central Pennsylvania area.


WHAT IS HIGH PRESSURE JETTING?

Whether your grease tank needs a thorough cleaning or you're experiencing a blockage in the drain line, we can break up solids with high pressure jetting equipment and get your pipes flowing again. High pressure sewer line cleaning, also known as "jetting" service, involves snaking a hose through your drain or sewer line, and using water at high pressure to blast away grease and debris that's built up over time. In cases of a severe clog, we can complete a camera inspection to determine exactly what is causing your backup – roots in the drain line, a broken pipe, grease buildup etc. We have a camera line that we snake down your drain or sewer line just like the jetting hose, and with modern camera technology, our crew can determine what the issue is 20-40 feet after the flush!

JETTING SERVICE & MAINTENANCE FOR RESTAURANTS:

It's a general rule of thumb that a trap should be emptied after it's one-fourth of the way full of FOGS (fats, oils, grease and solids). That may seem often, but after the trap has filled to that point it is no longer able to do its job effectively - meaning that the grease and oils you’re supposed to keep out of the pipes can start to escape. When your grease trap stops doing its job, your chances of a blockage or back-up begin to increase which can be major trouble for your restaurant.


Once you figure out how quickly your grease trap reaches "full" (one-fourth of the way full of FOGS) you can set up a regular maintenance plan with us. Most restaurants need to be serviced every one to three months. If you find your restaurant is filling up your grease trap faster than once a month, it’s probably time to look at getting a bigger grease trap to meet your business' needs.


4 BENEFITS OF HIGH PRESSURE WATER JET SERVICE:


  1. High pressure jetting removes debris from the pipes running to your grease trap and main sewer line to keep your system running properly. This can be especially helpful in older homes, restaurants and commercial spaces.
  2. Jetting can clear sewer lines of hardened grease buildup which can lead to backups and clogs. Also extremely helpful for restaurants and bars.
  3. Routine high pressure water jet service can reduce food odors and fruit flies in your kitchen.
  4. Our technicians perform a 13 point maintenance check each and every time a grease trap is serviced so you know your business is in good hands. We make sure your system is functioning properly so you can avoid future plumbing issues and expensive repair bills.
