Plumbing Company Shawano WI | Call Lucas Schoenike Sewer & Drain

Yes, absolutely. Hydro-jetting is highly effective for ice-related blockages common in our area. It uses a high-pressure stream of hot water to safely melt the ice and scour the pipe walls clean of any contributing debris, restoring full flow without damaging your pipes—a much safer and more thorough solution than chemical melters.

A professional inspection by Lucas Schoenike includes checking your sump pump system. We test the pump operation, inspect the discharge line for clogs or freezing risks, verify the check valve is working, and ensure the pit is clear of debris. This proactive check-up in Shawano can identify wear, minor issues, or improper installation before the next big storm, giving you peace of mind.

While snaking creates a hole through a clog, hydro-jetting cleans the entire pipe circumference. For Shawano homes with older pipes or properties with lots of trees, roots and grease buildup are common. Hydro-jetting blasts these away completely, providing a longer-lasting solution and helping to prevent the frequent backups that simple snaking often can't resolve.
