After jetting, your pipes are clean — keep them that way with a few habits.
For kitchen drains: the most impactful thing you can do is stop sending grease, fat, and oil down the drain. Cool and solidify cooking grease before throwing it in the trash. Run hot water down the drain after washing dishes. Use a drain strainer to catch food particles.
For bathroom drains: hair catches in drain openings and accumulates soap scum over time. A simple drain strainer or hair catcher (available cheaply at any hardware store) reduces how much reaches the pipe. Running hot water after showers helps keep soap moving.
For main sewer lines: if root intrusion was the issue, the roots will try to come back. The entry point (the crack or joint the roots found) is still there. Talk to us about maintenance frequency — how often to jet before buildup becomes a problem again.
The honest answer: jetting clears your pipes back to near-original condition. What you do after determines how fast they will need attention again.
