Descaling & Jetting in Shepherd, MT

A descaled, jetted line drains like new -- and keeping it that way is inexpensive. Periodic maintenance jetting for commercial kitchens, and descaling every several years for aging cast iron, prevents the emergency backups that always seem to happen at the worst time. Ask us about a preventive maintenance schedule for your home or business.

Over years of use, cast iron and older sewer pipes develop scale -- mineral deposits and corrosion that build up on pipe walls, gradually narrowing the line and snagging debris. The result is chronic slow drains and backups that keep returning no matter how many times the line is snaked. Descaling and hydro jetting solve the problem at its source by restoring the pipe to its original interior diameter.

TLC Patriot brings commercial-grade descaling and jetting technology to homes and businesses throughout the Billings area, clearing lines that conventional drain cleaning can't fix.

We use the RIDGID K9-204 FlexShaft machine -- a commercial-grade pipe cleaning system that spins a chain-knocker head at high speed inside the pipe, mechanically removing hardened scale, corrosion, and buildup from the pipe walls without damaging the pipe itself. Because the FlexShaft works while a camera monitors progress, we can verify the pipe is truly clean rather than guessing.

Descaling is especially valuable for the cast iron sewer lines common in older Billings neighborhoods, where decades of corrosion have roughened and narrowed the pipe. Removing that scale prevents the gradual narrowing that leads to slow drains, recurring clogs, and eventual backups.
