Services & Process

Shaka covers septic tank pumping and inspections, full plumbing repairs and installations, and hydro-jetting for stubborn drain blockages. Hydro-jetting is particularly effective when roots or grease have built up inside pipes, something that chemical drain cleaners simply can't resolve. On the septic side, they handle everything from routine maintenance to troubleshooting systems that aren't draining properly. The plumbing capabilities mean they can trace a septic issue back to its source, whether that's the tank itself, a broken pipe, or a problem deeper in the drain field.

Service Area

Shaka Plumbing, Drain & Septic serves Honolulu and surrounding Oahu communities. Their multi-service model makes them a practical choice for neighborhoods across the island, from the urban core near Downtown Honolulu to residential areas in the surrounding valleys where septic systems are more common.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydro-jetting and do I need it?
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of pipes, removing grease, mineral buildup, and root intrusions that regular snaking can't fully clear. It's recommended when you have recurring drain backups or slow drains that don't respond to standard clearing methods.
Can a plumbing issue cause my septic system to fail?
Yes. A leaking toilet that constantly runs water into the tank can flood your drain field over time. Broken or misaligned pipes inside the home can also send the wrong materials into the septic system, causing clogs and premature failure.
How do I know if my problem is a plumbing issue or a septic issue?
If only one fixture is backing up, it's usually a localized plumbing clog. If multiple drains in the home are slow or backing up at once, especially with odors, the problem is more likely in the septic system or the main drain line.
Does Shaka handle grease trap cleaning for restaurants in Honolulu?
Given their plumbing and septic capabilities, commercial grease trap service is within scope for a provider like Shaka. Contact them directly at (808) 491-6366 to confirm availability and scheduling for commercial properties.
How often should drain lines be hydro-jetted?
For most residential properties, hydro-jetting every 18 to 24 months is a reasonable preventive schedule. Commercial kitchens and properties with heavy use may need it more frequently, sometimes every few months, to stay ahead of grease accumulation.
Is Shaka Plumbing licensed in Hawaii?
Hawaii requires septic and plumbing contractors to hold state-issued licenses. You should always confirm a provider's licensing status before hiring, which you can verify through the Hawaii Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs.
