Pipeline & Structure Cleaning
Services Offered
- 01
Hydro-Jetting & Vac Truck Services
High-pressure water cleaning and vacuum recovery that clears and prepares lines for inspection or lining.
- 02

Definition
What It Is
Pipe and structure cleaning is the controlled removal of debris, grease, roots, scale, and sediment from sewer and stormwater systems so they flow as designed and can be accurately inspected. Cleaning is both a maintenance service and a prerequisite: a line full of buildup hides defects and produces an unreliable assessment. We clean sanitary sewer, stormwater, lift stations, and structures using the method matched to the blockage and the pipe, then verify the result, so the system performs and the condition data that follows is trustworthy.
Method
How We Do It
- Step 01
Assess The Need
We determine what the need is for the asset and the type of debris needing to be removed before we select a method.
- Step 02
Match The Method
Hydro-jetting, mechanical cutting, vacuum removal, or descaling, chosen for the asset and the needs of each client.
- Step 03
Clean & Restore
We remove the debris, sediment, and build-up, protecting the asset and the surrounding system to restore regular usage.
- Step 04
Verify The Result
We confirm the asset has been properly cleaned, so cleaning is documented rather than assumed, getting it done right.
- Step 05
Recommend Next Steps
If cleaning reveals a defect, we flag it for assessment or repair and provide suggested next steps.

Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Debris, grease, roots, and scale hide defects and distort the camera's view, producing an inaccurate assessment. A clean line is what makes condition data trustworthy.
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to cut through grease, debris, and light root intrusion and flush it from the line, restoring flow without harsh mechanical contact in most pipe types.
Descaling removes hardened scale and tuberculation, common in aged cast iron, that narrows the pipe and traps debris. It is often a necessary step before lining or to restore capacity.
It can if the wrong method or pressure is used. We assess the pipe first and match the method to its condition, which is why we lead with assessment rather than maximum pressure.
Yes. We clean lift stations, wet wells, catch basins, culverts, and other structures, in addition to gravity and pressure pipe.
We flag it. If cleaning exposes a defect, we document it and recommend assessment or repair rather than leaving a known issue unaddressed.
