How Much Does Hydro Jetting Cost in British Columbia?

Typical cost in British Columbia

$650

$350 low · $2,500 high

Per jetting visit: crew, jetter time on one line & flushing the debris out · Updated July 2026

Hydro jetting a drain line in British Columbia costs $350 to $2,500 installed, and most homeowners pay around $650 for one residential line in a standard house. Same tank, same code — but a different bill depending on where the truck parks. Labour rates swing roughly 15% end to end across the province: a job that averages $600 in Prince George runs about $750 in West Vancouver.

One thing that doesn't change anywhere in the province: gas work needs a licensed gasfitter, full stop. Permits mostly run through Technical Safety BC, though several cities — Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Kelowna, North Vancouver, Maple Ridge — run their own gas permit programs; each city guide names who issues the permit there.
