4000 psi Drain Jetting in Lancaster
4000+ psi industrial jetting clears fat, scale, silt and wet wipes — the fastest way to restore full bore flow.
A 4000 psi jetter does in twenty minutes what rods can't do in two hours. Heritage city centre with a strong Georgian and Victorian core, large student HMO base, university expansion, and rural villages along the Lune valley. The pipework under most Lancaster streets is a mix of salt-glazed clay and early PVC — both clean well, but only when nozzle, pressure and approach direction match. That's the bit we get right.
