All our trucks carry the very latest drain diagnostic equipment taking the guesswork out of finding the problem quickly and economically.

Hydro-Jet Drain Scrubber

We designed and built these unique machines. After a drain is cleaned with a Hydro-Jet the pipes are left scrubbed clean without using mechanical cable machines preventing possible damage to your pipes.

The remote mini reel pictured to the right allows the plumber to operate equipment at the point of the blockage without going back to the truck to turn it on or off every time. The tiny whip hose can clear blockages from pipes as small as 25mm.

We now have a new root foam product that inhibites root regrowth without killing the tree. 

 

 WHAT IS VAPOROOTER?

VAPOROOTER is a combination of herbicides that are placed in sewer lines as a foam for the purpose of eliminating roots and preventing further destruction of sewer pipe caused by live tree roots. Only roots within the pipe and a very short distance outside the pipe are effected. Trees and shrubs immediately above ground are not harmed.

VAPOROOTER is composed of:

  • An herbicide which pentrates root cell walls, bursts them and causes the root to die and decay.
  • A root growth inhibitor which attaches to surface-active organic material to inhibit further root cell division or growth for approximately three years.
  • A surfactant blend which strips away grease and slime from the roots permitting penetration for the formulation into the root mass.
  • A foaming agent which provides a durable, fine-textured "vehicle" to carry Vaporooter into maximum contact with all roots and pipe surfaces.
