After seeing that Drain Scope video, if I were the structure Owner, I'd look at what the Building Plans (Always on file with the city if I didn't have a copy of my own) to see what the Drains are Supposed to be connected to and if the Plans show they're NOT supposed to end in the ground under the slab, I'd arrange for someone to run a tree root cutter through the drain and see if that opens the drain up. If the Drain actually does just end in earth and it isn't supposed to, then I'd call a Lawyer and Sue the Builder and the Owner of the Builder's Company (assuming they're not the same person) for Breach of Contract, Negligence AND ALL the costs incurred with redoing the Drains so they connect with what the Building Plans say they're supposed to... I'd also Sue the City Building Inspector that OKed the Drain installation and Closed the associated Building Permits because his/her Incompetence just cost me major money!

[@MaverickandStuff]

@@steve57912 Also if the inspector signs off on it, you will not win in court because that would be the city admitting to the negligence.

Agree with Op. Suppose you want to sell the property some day. If it's not up to code then you would have to pay to get everything fixed up. In the US you also have environmental groups that think you are poisoning the planet with drains that just go into the earth to dump the waste.

[@timnash6870]

TIM from Canada here is a suggestion for you when you were cleaning out your areas you should always put plastic tarp down next to your area it is easier to clean it up for tarp and dump it back in to the sewer and it is to wash up cement and have it all over the place just a suggestion do not know if you have dollar stores where you are or you can go to your nearest building supply store and get a cheap tarp to put down a plastic curb should not cost you too much.

[@sarah.268]

Wouldn't it make sense to first remove all dirt/mud and/or anything that you can immediately see from the area then use the the pressure washer?

[@RobThompsontheITguy]

The little stormwater drain that couldn't. They'll be happy to have that 10 gallons of buffer capacity back. I can't tell if during Covid was a good opportunity for them to run that line somewhere. Happy Boxing Day 2020.

[@Srulio]

Thank you for informative and often very entertaining videos. Perhaps you could benefit from metre markers on your pressure hose and also from a flat nozzle for final clean up at end of job. Perhaps you patent the access plug you cut into the porcelain S bend.

[@Adam-hy6hm]

So the pipe doesn’t actually connect to the storm water or anything just the ground? Surely that is illegal when building apartments?

[@alex-marquette]

Well assuming that it doesn't carry any human waste in it, then this would be allowed. Since the idea behind a storm drain is to release the water back into nature this setup seems fine although they probably should've extended the pipe network to run off to a better area.

[@Thoooooms]

Ya call that a glove? THIS...is a glove.

[@proverbs3561000]

A soak away drain is fine, but which numb nut built it under the foundation? At least run the pipe to the outside and put the soakaway somewhere that can be dug up when it eventually clogs with sediment.

[@jaywest4102]

Ever completely deep clean the long glove or just rinse it off? I can’t imagine the staggering amounts of filth, disease and bacteria that is caked on your equipment and in your vehicle.

[@GGigabiteM]

Why would you take a drain that big and feed it to a few feet of pipe under a thick slab...lol

[@alex-marquette]

disperse pooling water after a rain shower likely. Only probably is that when the soil has maximum water in it, there really is no where to go.

[@GGigabiteM]

@@alex-marquette It's really a bad idea to drain water under a foundation. You'll erode the soil and cause the foundation to eventually start failing from the soil shifting and loss. It won't happen overnight, but the effects can be seen in as short as a few years depending on the amount of water going under the foundation. It should have been connected to the sewer or a stormwater drain (also often connected to the sewer.)

[@MrMartinSchou]

When it comes to drains that are completely filled with stuff like that (be it soil, dirt, fat etc.) are there really no better ways of getting it out than a shovel and bucked? Like some kind of water pressure driven excavator or something.

There is, but it usually takes its own truck/lorry or trailer. Look up suction excavator.

Using a clam type post hole digger works well for cleaning out the silt in the bottom of these wells.

[@hankbridges5055]

Don't tell him, cause he don't know shit!

[@e.c.listening326]

You mean the ku-klux-clam ?

[@rupe53]

nomebear ... what he cleans out is too soupy for a post hole / clam digger. There is a "basin shovel" made that is more like a scoop or gravy ladle that works well here, although most have a LONG handle for doing storm drains in the street. That is how they cleaned them years before that had vacuum trucks

[@jiminycricket2230]

I guess the maintennance crew never got the memo to shovel out the sump catch basins once in a while.

[@prinzeugenvansovoyen732]

you shuld get two wood boards in a slight angle - when you clean up after a job this could lead the whater into the drain instead of besides/above it makeing cleanup quicker and easier

[@carlovinas9536]

Wow idol

[@firedad7341]

Ok is it only me or should that shop initiate a program where every so often someone cleans out the dirt in their sewer catch basin.

[@gorillaau]

Why? It's the property owner's responsibility to ensure the drainage does what it's supposed to.
