Blocked Drain 313 - Pipe Gush and Tree Roots Explosion Spectacle: The Most Epic Drain Unblocking!

[@mcdeezrfc]

My drain is blocked !! Well there’s your problem love half your garden is stuck in the bloody thing 😂

[@chrismaverick9828]

Those drains didn't need a plumber, they needed a gardener. Good work in your efforts.

I love how excited you get when the roots start coming out, you made my day!!!

This was absolutely satisfying to watch, my goodness. Love it when tree roots get taken out, I swear it's the same luxury as getting ice out of pipes.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Once again an incredible job done. We so enjoy your daily adventures and inspecting of troubled pipes. Thanks as always we will keep on watching.

Hi Gavin Anything down the pipe would be sorry it was ever down there with you around. That was definitely satisfying to watch. Now if it rains over Christmas she wont have to worry about the water flooding. Hi to Mrs P and mini P, stay safe and see you next video.

Gav, I live almost 9,000 miles from you (Mississippi in the U.S), and I always look forward to your videos. Not sure why, but I think it’s because they’re not only entertaining - YOU are entertaining - but also because they’re interesting. I actually learn things from watching your work. I’m glad you post them. Happy Christmas to you, Mrs P, Lil P, and of course to Toad and the team.

That looks as though it's a lot of sa d, but mixed with cement. Maybe there was just enough water to stop it setting, but I reckon someone in the area has been doing some home building chores.

That was pretty cool. Had me thinking if you ever have seen the video in the big city sewers where the guys find the humongous glob of oil,hair, trash and other things. It actually looks like it's alive. It's mainly around the Asian restaurants because they pour there old oil down the drain. It's the creepiest thing I've ever seen.

2:25 reminds me of a neighbor, this was 20 years ago, who complained because water was seeping into her basement. I went to look and showed her the blocked drain channel and told her to have some sealant put along the drive against the house and that solved her problem: I was an accounting tech but knew more that she did about home maintenance apparently.

[@Green_House]

🐸 Perfectly normal. You always need a second trade to repair the damage caused by the first trade. Great job and nice specimens!

Just discovered your channel. How interesting to watch! Reminds me of when my parents retrieved Liquid Amber roots from a terracotta water pipe. The entire pipe was full of roots. Keep doing what you're doing, helping and educating. 😊

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Welcome

[@stevehaug3603]

If I had to take a guess, I'd say that the drain system and sump pits have had no maintenance or cleaning done on them since the day it was installed, and especially the sump closest to the pool.

[@jaamslt]

Many of the clients need to be on one of the cleanup shows. Gardens are full of debris and they wonder why their drains are clogged. 😵‍💫

They should have use smooth PVC SCH40 or heavier pipe only as I saw some really cheap thin corrugated pipe, you get what you pay for. Great job on getting it cleaned out, this really needs new drain pipe replacement or pay you to come out each year to clean the drains out.

[@thegrinch8161]

At least you’re not doing what I did for the time I was in OZ. I was in about 20 foot and between roots and other crapola I was getting severely pissed aff so I used 10 litres of a strong weed, killer and came back a fortnight later to find almost all of the a hole neighbours trees were dead, I was a wee bit worried until the customer said if it stops the roots from growing back then she and hubby were happy. As a bonus my team and I got a case of beer. PS, nice thorough job. 🙏👍

[@stevenlapham5254]

Love the can do attitude.

This is my new go to channel! This stuff is extremely interesting. The "Penetrator" (his real name escapes me at the moment) has an upbeat attitude while doing his work. If that were me on the end of that hose, I probably would have gotten kicked off the job site for using extremely foul language out of frustration. And I would most likely be throwing shit as well!
