Stubborn clogs, root intrusion, and aging pipes often require more than a standard snaking. Fred A. Cook Jr., Inc. operates a dedicated TV Division and Sewer & Drain Division equipped for high-pressure jetting, electric snaking, and full pipeline video inspection throughout the Montrose area and Hudson Valley.
Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure water stream — typically 3,000 to 4,000 PSI or higher — to blast away grease buildup, sediment, scale, and debris from inside sewer and drain lines. It is more thorough than electric snaking, which punches through a clog but leaves buildup on the pipe walls. Hydro jetting is the right choice when:

Fred A. Cook Jr., Inc. provides hi-pressure jetting for residential, commercial, and municipal lines throughout the Montrose area. Our Sewer & Drain Division handles everything from a single-family home’s main line to large commercial systems.
Hydro jetting combined with a root-cutting attachment can clear most root intrusions effectively. Roots enter pipes through joints or cracks and, if left untreated, will eventually cause a complete blockage or pipe collapse. After clearing, a camera inspection is strongly recommended to assess how much structural damage the roots have caused and whether any sections of pipe need repair or replacement.
Yes. Our technicians can assess the situation on-site and provide a clear explanation of what is needed before any work begins. Contact us through our contact page to schedule a visit or discuss the problem before we arrive.
A pipeline camera inspection involves inserting a waterproof, flexible camera into a sewer or drain line to visually inspect its interior condition. The camera transmits real-time footage that our technicians review on-site. It is the most reliable way to identify blockages, root intrusion, pipe cracks, misaligned joints, collapsed sections, and other defects without excavation.
Our TV Division provides full pipeline video inspections including data collection and written reporting. We also offer pipeline camera inspections for residential and commercial clients. Digital reporting is particularly useful for real estate transactions, insurance claims, and municipality-required documentation.
Yes. We conduct camera inspections for single-family homes, multi-family buildings, commercial properties, and municipal infrastructure. For large-scale municipal work, our TV Division also provides infiltration studies, flow monitoring, and smoke testing. See our pipeline video inspection page for details.
In most cases, we recommend jetting first to clear the line, then following with a camera inspection. A clean pipe provides a clear view of the line’s structural condition — any remaining defects like cracks, root damage, or pipe separation become much easier to identify after debris is removed. If you are scheduling both services, we can coordinate them in one visit.
