High-pressure hydro jetting blasts away years of buildup, tree roots, and stubborn blockages that snaking can’t touch.
Hear From Our Customers
You know that frustrating cycle. Snake the drain, it works for a few weeks, then you’re back to slow drainage and backups. That’s because snaking only pokes a hole through the clog—it doesn’t clean your pipes.
Hydro jetting is different. High-pressure water at up to 3,000 PSI blasts through your pipes, scrubbing away grease, mineral deposits, soap scum, and tree roots from every surface. Your pipes come out clean, not just temporarily unclogged.
The result? Months or even years before you need service again, instead of calling us back in a few weeks. That’s real value for your money.
Go-Rooter has been Chicago’s trusted emergency plumbing company for over two decades. We’re licensed, bonded, and insured—a family-owned business that treats your home like our own.
Barrington’s extremely hard water creates unique challenges. At 23 grains per gallon, your water is tougher on pipes than most of Chicagoland. Add in mature trees with aggressive root systems, and you’ve got a recipe for serious plumbing problems.
These local challenges don’t surprise us because we’ve been solving them for thousands of Barrington families. When other methods fail, our hydro jetting services get the job done right the first time.
First, we inspect your pipes with a camera to see exactly what we’re dealing with. No guesswork, no surprises about what’s causing your drain problems.
Next, we position our hydro jetting equipment and insert the high-pressure hose into your drain or cleanout. The specialized nozzle sprays water in multiple directions as it moves through your pipes, scrubbing every surface clean.
The powerful water stream—up to 3,000 PSI—cuts through tree roots, dissolves grease buildup, and flushes away years of accumulated debris. We finish with another camera inspection to confirm your pipes are completely clear and flowing properly. Most hydro jet services take 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the extent of buildup.

Barrington’s water challenges make hydro jetting especially effective for local homes. Your extremely hard water leaves mineral deposits that regular snaking can’t remove. Over time, these deposits narrow your pipes and create perfect spots for new clogs to form.
Tree roots are another major issue here. Mature oaks, maples, and other large trees send roots up to 100 yards from their base, seeking the moisture in your sewer lines. Once roots find a small crack, they grow rapidly inside the pipe, creating massive blockages that can cause sewage backups.
Our professional hydro jetting handles both problems completely. The high-pressure water strips away mineral buildup and slices through even thick tree roots. For Barrington homes with older clay or cast iron pipes, it’s often the only method that truly clears the line without damaging the pipe itself.
