Golden Penny Sanitation Inc. provides professional hydro jetting in Honolulu and across Oʻahu, using high-pressure water to scour the inside walls of sewer and drain lines. Jetting clears grease, sludge, scale, and tree roots that a standard drain snake only pokes a hole through, restoring the pipe to near its full diameter so clogs stop coming back.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is hydro jetting?
Hydro jetting uses a specialized nozzle and high-pressure water to scour the inside of a pipe, flushing out grease, sludge, roots, and debris. Unlike snaking, it cleans the entire pipe wall rather than just punching a hole through the clog.
Do I need hydro jetting or drain snaking?
A snake is fine for a one-off clog. If the same line keeps backing up, or a camera shows heavy grease or root buildup, jetting is the better fix because it removes the cause instead of the symptom.
Is hydro jetting safe for older pipes?
For most pipes in reasonable condition, yes. We evaluate the line first — with a camera inspection when needed — and adjust the pressure to match the pipe’s material and condition.
How often should restaurants jet their grease lines?
Most commercial kitchens benefit from jetting every six to twelve months, paired with regular grease trap service. Heavy-volume kitchens may need it more often.
Does hydro jetting remove tree roots?
Yes. Jetting cuts and flushes roots out of the line. If roots keep returning, a camera inspection can show whether a cracked or offset section should be repaired to stop them for good.
