Burst Pipe?? 2017 VLOGMAS DAY 8

[@kathrynalbers1309]

The garage was crying because it heard everyone talking shit about how messy it was

[@GoblinsAreAGirlsBestFriend]

I've seen so much worse in terms of mess but that is fucking hilarious LOL

[@johnoneil9188]

Sam is a bit grumpy because he forgot to tell everybody that Winter is coming. He feels really bad about it.

[@knux794]

Sam, the Honest. he will be remembered as a king that never lied to us.

[@HossMosh]

*chants* THE KING IN THE SHORTS

[@heychrisfox]

As a note, I can always appreciate vlogmas because it's very demystifying. It's nice to see you go through your regular life dumbness, because I'm sure the rest of us go through this dumbness all the time. It's just nice to see people you admire dealing with the same dumbness too.

"I'm wearing shorts underneath this" are the words of house Thorne.

[@joshferatu]

If you want to save the carpet that's in there, get a dehumidifier or two ASAP and dry the garage out for a couple days. I went through something like this earlier in the year and basically did everything wrong because I had no idea what to do, in the end, had to have the carpet and padding tore up and redone. They said things were fine after that, but I still stress over possible mold in the walls. Water damage sucks.

[@daniel.bernard]

joshferatu *dehumidifier

[@Ektalon]

What Daniel said. Humidifiers will not help, unless you're trying to grow a jungle outta that carpet.

[@joshferatu]

Yeah, huge oops on my part. Corrected.

[@13thforswarn]

As someone who has used similar types of machines for their job, be prepared to be absolutely horrified by how dirty the sucked up water will be if the carpet hasn't been cleaned in a while. You also have to be very thorough with the water suction/vacuum part, you don't want that soap to linger in the carpet. It will take a long time for the carpet to dry, but since its in the garage, you can probably open up the garage door to help ventilate the area and dry the carpet faster. Good luck!

[@robertmcelfresh1031]

Some advice: In the garage : never pile stuff on the floor. The water heater can leak, the hoses for the washing machine will leak. Always have rubber tubs to store things or have shelves. Go to a big hardware store and buy one of those $25 plastic pans for under the washing machine. My kitchen re modeler says he gets LOTS of work from kitchens ruined by leaking washing machine hoses or fittings. Also - open the garage door and use fans to dry the carpet.

[@robertmcelfresh1031]

My installer said it was the hoses. Then should be changed every few years but people often leave them for years and years. (I bought all new hoses last year).

[@Someone-xn6yh]

Tfw when Dodger's day of dealing with a soaked garage was way more interesting than my life will ever be.

[@bustedsim]

Remember when you said people were saying you should clean the garage, and you were like, 'we're gonna!' The garage musta been like "LET ME HELP MOTIVATE YOU! BLUUUUURG." XD

[@BuckyDK]

When you forget Senpais name is actually Brooke and not really Dooger

[@christopherharkins2736]

Oh the joys of plumbing. When the guy comes back to put up the sheet rock and do the mudding make sure you cover your stuff up especially the electronics there is going to be sheet rock dust everywhere

[@mishade]

Will Dooger ever forgive herself for getting annoyed at a good person? Will the king of the north ever get pants? will Dodger ever get out of friend jail? Will mold be the end of our heroine? Find out Next Time, on The Adventures of the Rug Doctor!

[@AlienToppedPancakes]

All hail King Sam, The Truthful. The only king of our land that's not afraid to tell the truth to his subject. How kind are thee

[@PerfectAlibi1]

With his queen Dooger ^^

[@Fmalover1212]

Every time I see Doogs petting her cats it makes me jealous that I can't pet them either. They look so soft and are so sweet!!

[@TheMrVengeance]

_"I'm going to get changed into adult clo-.. no! I'm just gonna keep wearing this."_ Ah yes, I think we all know those days. :') Chilling in mah sweatpants as well.

[@Volgrus]

You know it's funny, you wouldn't think watching someone else having problems that I myself have had would be entertaining, since it's basically just adulting, mundane stuff, but Dodger makes it entertaining, so kudos.

[@ravenstromdans]

I swear, half of these videos is just Doogs giving her cats love...which I am totally fine with, honestly. It's weirdly soothing.

[@DaBayleef]

Yo! We've had problems with soaked carpet when our dehumidifiers start to get old and don't work properly so one of the best things to do is suck up as much water as you can (like you did), get towels and attempt to dry more of it up, then leave fans on the wet area until it's completely dry! The water that gets under the carpet itself will get absorbed back up to the top over time so it's good to check back and deal with it every few hours! We've had to do this a lot and I know it's a pain, good luck with it!

[@JCrook1028]

I doubt there's pad under that thin commercial carpet in the garage.......

[@esaedvik]

wait...they're not bringing in driers for the water damage? If that's happened before, that house is gonna be filled with mold unless also dried for days and ozone-treated. :(

[@aenorist2431]

That. Get a drier, pull down the humidity in there to (max) 60% relative for days straight.

[@Killer_Turnip]

If that rug doesn't dry too quick I would consider getting a portable fan in there to help dry. Hope you're all doing well! :3

[@APUGuru]

I'm not a fan of vlogs but I fucking love vlogmas.

[@DTHOMASBOUCHIER]

lights "which one is safe." the daily fear

[@PressHeartToContinue]

hahaha the spot with the most water was right next to a light so we figured out which one was safe to use but I forgot in the moment

[@DTHOMASBOUCHIER]

that early in the morning my brain and body don't like each other so I congratulate you able to figure all of that out.

[@igxx95]

Thanks you soo much for another vlog! I have had a tough time the past years, and recently been diagnosed with social anxiety and this really makes my morning. Seeing people i appreciate doing there normal day stuff, which at the time i can't really do, so thanks alot, for doing Vlogmas:)

[@David_C_83]

The adventures of having a house! Hahaha, yeah... your rug doctor adventure is just a great conclusion to all this... But like other people say, I would just remove the carpet, the whole place needs to properly dry out but if the rug doctor does the trick then cool, makes for a cheaper fix! And never get tired of seeing your cats

[@sirunknown2142]

Sam always looks majestical with that amazing beard.

[@Thedaadss]

Rug doctors are great! We rent one every once in a while to deep clean our carpets. You can also get an upholstery cleaner attachment to clean your 7up soaked seats too :D

[@soulsurvivor5348]

the definition of a KZbin career: only professional from the torso up

[@o0Avalon0o]

I've always had to buy box fans to help dry things after the rug doctor. I'm not an expert but maybe that would help y'all too! Sorry you're dealing with these issues!

[@Johan-di6md]

It sounded like you were ready to cry at the beginning.

[@brightlittlething]

"Is that a Sherlock? StealinghissmistersfOOD?" at 10:12 lol

[@renadachu]

when I was 16 I was home alone for the weekend and a hose leading to the hot water heater got a hole so pressurized hot water shot through two walls in to the kitchen...it's scared the crap out of me...I cried

[@optimus2200]

your videos end with cuddling the cats are always ALWAYS the sweetest thing ever in the world

[@gozolve]

I cant get over how nice these make me feel to watch.

[@TorgmanRDP]

in this episode: doogs says "rug doctor" a lot.

[@Dimbledude]

The King of the Shorts!

[@GregorifElfeNoir]

With the title I was a bit expecting Sam to break out a giant bagpipe and play a sick solo on it. Juuuust a bit expecting. Oh well maybe next time :o

[@LocoChico17]

that ps4 background music though. XD

[@KineticFetus]

It made me look at my TV for sec

[@LasAventurasdePerle]

Damn, it is really dark at 5:30pm! 😲

[@jackoghost]

you could throw some dry rice on the carpet, rice attracts and absorbs water / moisture, do throw away the wet rice afterwards

[@ryomitsui000]

It's either a bear hide, or he's wearing the bathmat from the bathroom. lol

[@jeffstehman6984]

Sam was looking very kingly...for about three seconds! Poor Sam.

[@Zyga21]

I never really watch vlogs on youtube.... but I got bored and started watching these and I think I'm only entertained because you both are so cute together and it's just nice to watch and laugh at the king. idk, I like it though.

[@patu8010]

Putting down pots and pans to catch water dripping from the ceiling. I thought that only happened in cartoons.

[@Zeldur]

patu8010 The only other thing you can use that would be close by is a trash can.

[@espinaca27]

Dodger, like some people have said, it's not that easy to deal with water in the carpet when it's that much and it's been standing there for a considerable amount of time, because of humidity. Maybe you should consider asking in a carpet store or something.

[@Rudia1408]

Sam is so Beautiful I cry You're such a sweetheart I cry Your cats are so cute and precious I cry What a beautiful family 😭😭😭

[@vizzixi7355]

Sherlock stealing food was the funniest thing. He chose the moment you seemed distracted lmao

[@souledgar]

Hail King Sam, The Pantsless. Long live the King!

[@pedrosilveira5764]

Why there's a carpet on the garage? I'm not a fan of carpets but the garage seems to be one of the last places you should put one...

[@patu8010]

The way she explained it is the owners of the house originally put a carpet there to make it a play area for their kids

[@Toga_SV]

You're an absolute trooper, doogs. Thank you for still making a video despite everything that's going on ♥

[@ericcox2161]

Dodger is there matting under your carpet if so get some fans on the wet spots it helps dry it out need to make sure the matting is dry or mold may set in good luck.

[@Trusteft]

Heh, your "garage" is larger than my whole apartment. Water issues is the worst. Everything feels so dirty.

[@luluchans]

That mug! Go Ducks! Love these vlogs. Didn't realize how much I missed them since last year's vlogmas.

[@ScribbleKith]

"I'm wearing shorts underneath this." That's how you know he's a king. Hold up tho, if there's a rug in the garage, can you even park your car in there? Seems strange man.

[@andymion]

I'm going to the grocery store to rent a doctor for my rug. America is weird man. ;)

[@wschmrdr]

Was going to say welcome to the joys of being a homeowner... I guess it's something for me to look forward to if it ever happens.

[@dungeonmaster16]

7:00 imo best to head to ace hardware when you need to rent carpet cleaning machines. same with my parents when i was a kid. never liked renting at safeway but when later they learn ace has it and better costumer service they go there instead on stuff like this.

[@cyrussoxlegion]

Just got my Dodger Coffee Co. shirt today! Can't wait to show it off to the whole world! I'm sorry about the problem with the big mess Dodger, I really hope everything works out okay.

[@guatyful]

Is it common to have a carpeted garage? I've never seen one with carpet

[@EmeraldJunkie]

I think it's probably because they don't use it as a garage and use it as a laundry room/storage/gym.

[@C_Bat]

For some reason, hearing Doogs say "rug doctor" made me imagine a rug person saying "I'm a doctor!", like towlie? But less high and more doctory?

[@maluse227]

anyone else really like sleepy just had a nap sam, he so outwardly cheerful its wonderful.

[@chased9726]

Hey Dodger - You don't need to worry about how dry the carpet is when you shampoo it. You don't want it sopping wet like it was because the shampoo won't really do its job then, but you can go over it when it's still pretty damp. Also, make sure you go through and do a very thorough rinse. At work (I'm a part-time janitor) we just went to electrified water and used it exclusively on the carpets this year and the water was still soapy because of how much residue is left in the carpet.

[@echostrauss8304]

thank goodness everything went smoothly and it got fixed quickly.

[@robertmcelfresh1031]

Get some box fans and put them in the garage to blow over the wet carpet. You may need to move the washer & dryer. You can also rent rug-dryers from a local equipment rental store.

[@Caladas]

Cat sniffing at the end, best ending there could ever be ^^

[@strawberrysherbet4847]

I woke up sick this morning and really appreciated a Dooger video to comfort me! Loving these so far!

[@insolubletoaster8133]

aw, feel better, dude.

[@Stillcage]

Crap day 8?!?! I need to go back and binge the rest of the episodes

[@witchymagics]

we've had pipes burst in our home the same way and found our dehumidifiers to be a godsent. but hopefully the rug doctor works out for you! nothings worse than soggy carpet

[@daveclapson6]

Great to see u bk on KZbin again other than the podcast

[@KennieFitz]

Oh no! I'd be all sorts of worried about the carpet and stuff underneath all the workout equipment and the washer/drier. I'm getting anxious and overplanny just thinking about it. I'm so sorry that happened to you guys! I hope you get some good sleeps tonight!

[@Maleficently]

I have missed your vlogging, and it has been nice to see your (& Sam & Sherlock & Watson) face this month.

[@indeimaus]

what the heck is a rug doctor

[@teemuhaapala7623]

she explained it didnt she.

[@noahkarnes1489]

Indiemaus cool you whatch this too.

[@sirunknown2142]

My grandmother always gave me 7UP too! I wasn't sure if that was just my crazy grandmother but good to know I'm not alone!

[@opssham]

Day 8: I'm glad your burst pipe problem is over , sam may be the king of the north but jesse is the king of the south all hail king jesse cox

[@zuzusuperfly8363]

Noticing a trend of the vlogs ending with the PS4 menu theme. It always trips me out when I hear it, because I've conditioned myself to expect a certain environment when that's playing.

[@The1Goby]

Glad I wasn't the only one that noticed that this video.

[@travisdk84]

Our majesty is so modest

[@HazardousMoose]

Sam has joined the 60fps revolution. NICE!

[@arn_ice]

"Is that a Sherlock?!" -"Err, erm... NeOw?" චᆽච

[@Segnor1]

Sam looks so majestic. That's my new life goal now: look like a king.

[@aMilling]

Oh yeah, a lot of construction in LA is Wood, so bursting those bobbles could have helped, since the organic material is not a fan of moisture at all. So glad we can use masonry and concrete without worrying about earthquakes here in Denmark, statics can be hard enough without having to worry about earthquakes. I wonder what the floor slab construction is.

[@DodiTov]

Slab construction in the US is reinforced concrete. Even modern basement construction reinforced poured concrete. The mid 20th was block and cement, but it posed leakage problems, so the current standard is the poured concrete.The earthquake proofing is in the joints, with teflon floaters to avoid wracking and collapse.

[@aMilling]

Okay, that's pretty much the same for the slab, do the US have insane U-value demands as well? For basement the most common practice in Denmark is just in insitu casted concrete walls, with some polystyrene for insulation and moisture proofing.

[@DodiTov]

I am unaware of most building codes. I know these few facts because of remodeling shows. You do have to consider the differences in climate. I live in the Southern US...think Italy's climate. Much of the coding for Denmark is because of the temperature variants. None of the US, except Maine, is anywhere near the extremes that you face. The Canadians would face your climates and building challenges. For instance, my "freeze line" is only about 18cm., where my Canadian friend has a freeze line of 2 meters. But then again, my "winter" lasts about 6 weeks, not several months. It's almost Christmas, and I am still wearing summer clothes.

[@aMilling]

Dodi Tov yeah plus the fact that our government is very focused on being green. The minimum of insulation for an exterior wall is around 250mm.

[@willmccoy]

Those fuzzy blankets looked so warm and comfy.

[@itsjanie6023]

So idk but I've fallen in love with your garage. I saw the tv in there and was like wow I love this garage haha

[@GoblinsAreAGirlsBestFriend]

I mean my question is who can NOT be in love with Sleepy Sam?

[@poldiri]

Open the garage door, let the moisture out!

[@atramp100]

The reason Sam looked like a king is that Leaders are always tired from not getting enough sleep

[@kimbrolyy]

It must have been so stressful when that pipe burst :( I'm happy they fixed it so soon tho

[@Hppjohg]

I love your last of us hoodie 😍!!!

[@ViciousSeacow]

Question: WHY the hell is there carpet in your garage?

[@Zeldur]

ViciousSeacow There's a trend of people turning their garages into rooms then keeping the cars outside.

[@ViciousSeacow]

Zelda's Fox hmm well i kinda get that, but as a guy how lives where there is snow and a lot of rain must of the year, having your car outside all the time tends to deteriorate the paint and the car much faster, so I prefer having it sheltered from the elements rather then having a ekstra room.

[@acousticnoisemachine]

Right? In over 30 years on this planet, I've never seen a carpeted garage. It seems extremely alien to me.

[@GoldenMechaTiger]

I don't think they get a lot of rain in california

[@ViciousSeacow]

TheHermago i know and that's why the idea Is so strange to me

[@TheNZJester]

They rent Rug Doctors at places here in New Zealand as well. My mother rented one a couple of months back.

[@TheCreepypro]

props to you for still streaming that day cause most people would be like yeah I'm taking the day off to deal with this but you persevered great job

[@Kimmyfuzzygogglepage]

TheCreepypro but there isn't much to do , if it's sweeped up

[@trueheart78]

"They need to know the truth..." ❤️

[@ItsAnotherDanny]

4:54 this is SO me... I don't know whether to happy or sad. LMAO

[@jon-deonpetrowski2479]

What's happened to the twitch vods? keep up the warm snuggles:D

[@sleepybadtzmaru]

yo, using the Rug Doctor can be addictive. i did my apartment when i moved out. the entire 2 bed room, hall, living room, and i wanted to do more!

[@PressHeartToContinue]

yeah! Tiri uses one fairly often because she's gotten so used to having nice clean carpets haha. I think I'd really love to use it on the couch if possible since we have the cats

[@sleepybadtzmaru]

i love using the rug doctor, don't use it on the couch. You'll regret it, it'll put too much water into that soft cushion and it will not dry quickly/smell.

[@templar684]

Use it on the cats.

[@darkeststorm]

It just hit me.... why does the garage have carpet? ._.

[@writershard5065]

I mean, I don't think I've seen anyone actually park their cars in their garage anymore. Everyone just parks 'em outside and use their garage for storage and DIY workstations.

[@amythistxue1]

I hope I'm not the only one that things those blakets on their couch, like the one Sam was covered with when he was napping, look super comfy/snuggly

[@ShinySilvery]

Bless you Dodger, so tearful at the beginning. Good idea to only use the water suction and not add to the problem.... While you had the PS4 PlayStation music theme over that bit, wondering what you had on gamewise or on the entertainment hub?

[@Javierm0n0]

How ironic that only a few days later do we see the garage being cleaned after u mentioned what other people were saying aboot it

[@evilsoupkitchen3709]

All I wanted was to see the rug doctor :/
