Jetting checklists

Print this log or copy it into a notebook. A few weeks of notes about which drains act up, and when, tell a plumber more than a single phone description.

A simple hand-drawn map of where your sewer line runs, with cleanouts, trees and problem spots marked, makes every future jetting or repair visit faster and clearer.

A little preparation before a jetting visit saves time on site and makes the inspection more useful. Print this list and work through it the day before.

Use this worksheet while you watch a sewer inspection, or afterward with the recording. It turns video into notes you can compare later or share for a second opinion.

Two jetting quotes are only comparable when they cover the same work. Fill in this sheet for each contractor so you compare scope first and price second.

A few small habits through the year keep drains moving and catch sewer problems early. Use this calendar as a starting point and adjust it to your house.

Not every slow drain is an emergency, but some situations should not wait. Work through this guide to decide what to do next.

Every jetting visit produces useful information. This log keeps it in one place so it is there for the next plumber, an insurance question or the sale of the house.
