Big Blockage! - It Was A Nightmare!

[@peteb3365]

big sigh of relief when they have their own cleaners!

[@Keep_itflowing]

I know it saves a lot of work 🤣

Great video, well done. Never saw the rope trick until now. In addition to the warthog, I'd suggest to the client locating and providing access to the "buried" chambers. I know it is possible as I worked in a cinema where we had an access point that was covered by the lobby carpet. We found it when the line clogged and we had sewage bubbling up from under the carpet. It got a nice access cover installed after the line was cleared. 😮

That's the second time I've seen you do the rope trick, you must have the patience of a Saint

Excellent job as always and I bet you were glad you didn't have to do the cleanup! Thank you for persevering with the editing. Technology eh!

Persistence pays off Nathan! Was just thinking I hadn't seen the rope trick recently and here you pop up with it!

[@Keep_itflowing]

[@ABuller2]

Great job getting through that mess of a blockage, and the messed up video editing. 😊

[@Keep_itflowing]

the editing was more stressful than the job 😂

Great job clearing out the blockage mate, but it begs as to why there’s an internal stack pipe with no ready access though, cheers 🍻 😊

[@Keep_itflowing]

Thanks, i know it would make a lot more sense if there was access to

Hello

[@geraldd2109]

Great work! I'm curious, after you finish clearing the blockage do you have a specific cleanup/sanitizing procedure for your gear before it goes back into the truck? If yes it would be great to see a video of it.

[@Keep_itflowing]

Thank you , nothing in particular tbh I always try to keep my tools as clean as I can so if they are covered sewage I will wash them off with water, if they are particularly bad I will splash some disinfectant on them. I use gloves for any tools that touch sewage so it's not really an issue.

[@BEV323]

Ohhhh wowww, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn't be able to stomach this without throwing up! 🤢🤮 You must have a strong stomach for that not to bother you, lol 👍🏻

[@Keep_itflowing]

After u do this job for about 3 months its just normal

[@rosegionomo1426]

Another great video, kinda sh...y but great job lol 😆 just joking 😂😂

[@Keep_itflowing]

Thank you 😂

[@williamprice3700]

A misery to endure!💩🛠

[@Jim1971a]

Did you ever find out what was wrong with the radiator?

[@Keep_itflowing]

I have no idea the radiator had to be replaced then it blew a hose building up pressure it went to the garage they stripped it apart a bit found nothing wrong and put it back together. It’s been fine ever since 🤷‍♂️

[@lilianavidela7121]

😅😅😅

[@Keep_itflowing]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ShayBoogie679]

Question, why didn’t you jet from the inside of the restroom out to clear the blockage? Btw as always great job 😊

[@22Purplemist]

Likely because it would have made even more of a mess

[@ShayBoogie679]

Yea you have a point there 😉

[@Keep_itflowing]

when you jet the jetter mainly pulls water back towards you so you have to be very careful doing that, if the drain is blocked there is nowhere for the water to go so it would very quickly flood out. Thank you

[@ShayBoogie679]

@@Keep_itflowing gotcha 😉

[@Keep_itflowing]

[@joanmanship9595]

Why do ppl insist using a toilet that is obviously Not working correctly..it would certainly lead me to think What the IQ of the ppl this company has hired..

[@nonotthatoneguy]

When ya gotta go, ya gotta go! Sometimes, people think theirs will be the magic flush that will push everything through.

[@Keep_itflowing]

😂

[@DerGriefer]

With these new water saving toilets is no space for errors, wrong fall, wrong dimension and it will always block... i think these manholes are too a big point of failure, with the blind ends.

[@Keep_itflowing]

spot on there just isn't enough water to keep things moving so yes one little snag can cause a block very quickly

[@DerGriefer]

@@Keep_itflowing I did build much sewer piping (east europe) and never a issue occured with the new 4,5 / 6 Liter flush, max. fall 1.5% and 110mm pipe, using drops at height difference

[@Keep_itflowing]

@ as long as everything is built correctly there shouldn’t be any problems really as long as people aren’t flushing things they shouldn’t

[@katherinefranklin2586]

Got a change the toilet for the disabled is actually a disabled toilet 🚽 😂

[@Keep_itflowing]

🤣

[@colinkochanski5102]

Another fine job! It must be a nightmare at times without another pair of hands helping 🫡

[@Keep_itflowing]

it can be but im so use to working on my own and tbh sometimes it is actually easier 😂
