When a drain backs up for the third time in a year or a restaurant sink slows during the dinner rush, snaking only buys a few weeks. Since 1995, Herndon McFarland Plumbing’s hydro jetting solutions in DFW have kept residential and commercial drain lines clear and flowing smoothly.

A hydro jetter sends water through the line at high pressure, scouring the pipe wall clean rather than punching a narrow hole through the blockage. This separates jetting from snaking and explains why the results last. Here is how we put hydro jetting to work across DFW.
We scope the line first to confirm the cause and rule out a collapse that the jetter cannot fix. After jetting, we scope it again so you can see the pipe wall is actually clean, not just temporarily clear.
Fats, oils, and grease coat a pipe wall and harden into a layer no cable can scrape off. Our hydro jet cuts away that buildup and flushes it out, so kitchens and high-use homes see the difference immediately.
Fine roots work into pipe joints and trap everything that flows past. The hydro jetter shears the root mass from the pipe wall and clears it, restoring full flow without digging.
If you snake the same drain repeatedly, the line is not actually clean between visits. We jet it back to full diameter so the clog stops returning.
Commercial kitchens generate grease faster than any home, and a slow line during service costs money. We schedule jetting around your hours and keep drains moving so clogs never shut down the kitchen. See our light commercial plumbing services.
For homes and businesses with a history of buildup, periodic jetting keeps the line ahead of the problem. We set a schedule that fits your usage so you are not waiting for the next backup.
Not every clog needs a hydro jet. When a lighter blockage calls for a cable, our drain cleaning team handles it and will tell you which approach your line needs.
The single biggest reason DFW drains clog repeatedly is fats, oils, and grease (FOG). Poured down a drain as a warm liquid, FOG cools and congeals on the pipe wall, narrowing the line with every meal until flow chokes off. The U.S. EPA documents FOG as a leading cause of sewer blockages and overflows.
A snake punches a hole through the center of a grease layer or root mass, restoring flow for a few weeks, but the coating remains on the pipe wall, narrowing the line and catching the next round of debris. The clog returns because the pipe was never truly cleaned.
Hydro jetting attacks the problem differently. High-pressure water scours the full circumference of the pipe wall, stripping hardened grease and shearing root intrusion back to the pipe, then flushing debris downstream. The line returns to its full inside diameter, which is why a properly jetted drain stays clear far longer than a snaked one.
That is why our drain and sewer specialist scopes before jetting. We confirm whether the trouble is grease, roots, or a structural fault, match pressure to the pipe, and verify the result on camera so you know the line is clean. Jetting is the heavy-duty answer when standard drain cleaning falls short.
A clogged drain is rarely an emergency until it is. What stood out to Larry was not a single professional visit but the consistent ability to clear drain lines quickly every time.
He noted:
“Plumbers came, were polite and clean, cleared my clogged drain in minutes, and left a satisfied customer behind. None of this was a surprise since I’ve received the same great service over the years.”
Clearing a drain quickly and leaving the home clean is the baseline we hold on every call, whether a quick cable job or full hydro jetting. Read Larry’s full Google review.
Kathleen had dealt with plenty of plumbing companies before she found us, enough to have a clear standard for comparison. What earned her praise was not just the work in the field but the whole experience, from the crew on site to the staff coordinating from the office.
She wrote:
“I can’t speak highly enough about this company. They are the best that I have ever dealt with. Very dedicated plumbers. Office staff could not have been better. Sean in the office was outstanding as well. Thank you for the superb job.”
That coordination between a dedicated field crew and a responsive office keeps a jetting job, residential or commercial, running on schedule and done right. Read Kathleen’s full Google review.

If you clear the same drain repeatedly, multiple fixtures back up at once, or have grease-heavy or root-prone lines, jetting is usually the answer. A cable clears a single soft clog, but only a hydro jet removes the buildup coating the pipe wall. We scope the line first to tell you which one you need.
We start with a camera inspection to confirm the cause and rule out a collapsed pipe. Then we feed a jetting hose into the line and clean the full pipe wall with high-pressure water. Afterward, we scope the line again so you can see it is clear. The whole process is done through an existing cleanout with no digging.
For pipes in sound condition, yes. That is why we inspect first. If the camera shows a cracked or collapsed section, jetting is not the right tool, and we will tell you so. When the line is structurally sound, matching pressure to the pipe makes jetting both safe and thorough.
If snaking gets you a few weeks before the clog returns, you are paying repeatedly to manage a problem rather than solve it. Jetting removes buildup completely and restores full flow, so the line stays clear far longer. We will give you an honest read on which option offers better value for your situation.
Fats, oils, and grease poured down a drain cool and harden on the pipe wall. The EPA identifies this FOG buildup as a leading cause of sewer blockages. It accumulates with every meal until the flow chokes off, and because it coats the wall, a cable cannot remove it. A hydro jet can.
You can request jetting online anytime, and we will schedule a visit. We offer same-day appointments when a line cannot wait, round-the-clock service for backups, and flexible scheduling for commercial kitchens across DFW.
From slab leaks under the foundation to sewer line repipes, every job is diagnosed, documented, and done right. A look at recent work across North Dallas.
Excellent customer service, very friendly staff from the person taking the call to the staff fixing the repairs. Very trustworthy company. Shaun explained the step-by-step process and provided very fair prices.
Their positive, upbeat, anxious-to-please attitude made the whole process the very best it could be! All of the employees were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Herndon McFarland.
Trent and Reggie were the most professional associates entering our home. They treated our home with respect as if it were theirs. We will use this company again because of them and our experience.
