When you get a clog in your plumbing drain pipes, you may be torn on whether to use a plumbing snake or hire a professional plumber to hydrojet your lines. Snakes are designed to twist into clogs and pull them out. When it works, the drain is clear. When the method fails, the clog could end up much worse and/or get pushed farther down the drain line. By contrast, hydrojets break apart and push clogs down the drain line and into the municipal sewer system, which cleans your residential building drain line better than a snake without compromising the structural integrity of your pipes.
