Yonkers housing stock ranges from 1920s row homes in Getty Square to mid-century capes in 10710, all sharing narrow laterals that collect grease and roots. Crews based in New York City use I-87 and NY-9 to reach any neighborhood inside an hour.
Cold winters freeze shallow lines while summer storms overwhelm older combined sewers near the waterfront, creating the same backup patterns year after year. Service stays available around the clock so residents in 10701 through 10705 never wait for a weekday crew.
Everything that follows applies right here in Yonkers (10701): the offerings, the process, and the pricing approach we use statewide.
New York City restaurants face constant grease trap issues because of high-volume cooking and the city’s aging cast-iron and clay pipe networks. Many buildings in Manhattan and Brooklyn date to the early 1900s, where narrow basement access and long horizontal runs let fats cool and solidify quickly. Hydro jetting at 4,000–5,000 psi breaks these hardened deposits without chemicals that could violate DEP FOG rules.
Seasonal temperature swings matter. Winter cold in Queens and the Bronx accelerates grease congealing inside exterior laterals, while summer humidity keeps lines warmer but increases bacterial load. Technicians often start with a camera inspection to locate the trap outlet and any offsets created by building settlement. Jetting then proceeds from the cleanout toward the main, using forward and reverse jets to scour walls and flush debris to the truck.
