Clogged Drain #40

[@sharonking6782]

Great unblock, despite it being so stubborn. I’ve been following you for a while but I am just going back and looking at old films. It was good to see a customer who actually got things ready for you, such a change.

[@NYDRAINS]

It does make life easier, enjoy watching 😉thanks 👍🙏

[@grahampickering1560]

A massive root specimen and corn for Ratty! Double whammy 🙂

[@peter15871]

Oh boy are you getting tougher job's lately, you could clearly see your hand pushing, trying to get your revolving claw through the blockage ,and on pulling back you could feel the tension on the cable as each piece rubbed on the wood.But as always you got that sucker cleared . Plus the guy was very pleasant , and he dug it out for you what a good customer.Good video stay safe...

[@danachappell3861]

Hey, Sweetie!!! You made my day with the offering for Ratty. lol!!! What a nasty mess this one was. One cover, one way to go, and you still managed to get the squirrels nest out of the pipes.. hahahahaha!!! j/k I know they're roots. Most likely a deceased sewer nope rope (snake). lol

[@NYDRAINS]

Glad you enjoyed! 👍

[@mykec187]

Damn that was a really stubborn one, but I knew you got it 👍👍also nice of the customer for the prep work on accessing the clean out. I love your videos thank you for sharing!!

[@NYDRAINS]

Thank you!

[@bubblesmckenzie4125]

I'm a thumbs up type of person, I love hard working people and their videos. 🙄👍

[@nancyhiler7389]

That was a good video. Roots and wipes. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@lizzard2023]

Ratty says “thank you “ and “all good” lol 😆

Nice to see someone showing Respect for another KZbinr with a mention.

Nice! I can get down with a fan of Ollie and Rati!

Corn and roots great work really

[@vincentshaw5914]

Nice job. Clean and smooth!

[@kimberlymccreary]

Wow it looked like a big spider when you unravelling your metal snake...totally cool!! 🗽🍎✌👍😎 That corn will make Ratty really happy 🐀🌽

[@kimberlymccreary]

Thank you so much for the ❤ it means a lot .

[@BEV0323]

That was good..."Where's Waldo"? 😂 I caught that, you're a comedian!!! 🤣😁

[@NYDRAINS]

Lol 😉

[@chadmcmillan1907]

Wow, that clog must have been a long way down!! Also, why does the pit only have one cap?

[@NYDRAINS]

Some older traps only have one clean out, but I'm sure there was another at this job, but the homeowner only dug and exposed one.

[@rhondamc3642]

Another great one!!!!!

Thanks Rhonda 👍

[@RODALCO2007]

Deep manhole, lots of roots again and more corn for Ratty.

[@NYDRAINS]

🌽🐀👍

[@Grimmarox]

Excellent! What can homeowners and tenants do to help reduce the growth of roots? And should it only be done if roots have been detected?

[@NYDRAINS]

Roots or not, the sewers should be maintained on a regular basis.

[@lorennicholls5901]

Corn and roots 😋 ratty is going to love that! Stay safe

[@NYDRAINS]

😷 thanks 👍

Good job Aloha 🤙🏽🌺

[@patrickwilson9833]

This was a tough one you could hear and see the tension on the cables..you got it done

[@iangrassby]

Them roots would make a nice coat for ratty... lol

[@PlumbsmartPaul]

Corn for Ratty. Haha!

[@talondavid9408]

you and UK crew making a reference "corn for ratty".. hahahahaha

[@Fireship1]

I knew it was roots when I heard the Spartan working hard!

[@throttlebottle5906]

always assume roots, then you can be surprised on the "very rare occasion" that it's not

[@kimberlywagner1638]

Great job. And customer was amazed..

[@alfredvalrie5541]

Do you keep extra drain caps in your truck if they break?

[@NYDRAINS]

Yes, I’ll try to show it more often.

[@throttlebottle5906]

I'd guess they own stock in the cap manufacturing and buy them by the truck load LOL

[@bubblesmckenzie4125]

That is such a deep hole to work in. Is it possible to do pipe extension to bring it up too level or have you ever done that?

[@NYDRAINS]

It's been done, but actually makes it harder.

[@pheurbelvls3710]

That was an excellent specimen, was that a u-drain and we only saw one side? 💚💚

[@NYDRAINS]

Yes it was, the homeowner dug out the pit beforehand and the other side most likely hiding under the dirt

[@bubblesmckenzie4125]

Tell me how root killer works and how often you should use it

[@NYDRAINS]

It foams up the entire pipe and lasts 6 months to a year.

[@andrewready1137]

Damn corn. That stuff never digests properly. 🤣🤣🤣

[@NYDRAINS]

Lol

[@zalmaflash]

Nice job, and I like your new jacket.

[@NYDRAINS]

Thank you!👍

[@The2Coolest2]

How did the roots get in there?

[@NYDRAINS]

Something the the joints where the pipe connect or a break or separation in the pipes.

[@Norebx]

That was cool...keep the videos coming

[@janedoe3880]

Does he need to have his pipes replaced since they have been infiltrated by roots ?

[@NYDRAINS]

Not necessarily

[@leexgx]

Only where the tree got in as there will be a brake or collapsed pipes under or near the tree where the roots got in (trees look nice until you plant it above your utilities)

[@fnafplayer6447]

I wanna ask why you don't have a camera, roots could also mean a break or offset in the pipes

[@NYDRAINS]

Same story as the water jet, customers aren't as eager to spend unless they really have to, there are some more willing then others. Check out clogged drain #39

[@KG-yn9qi]

Did you make a second trip in past to make sure got it all?

[@leexgx]

If it drains its clear $49.95 (for now) not his job to fix the problem he doesn't get paid enough for that

[@dennisng1443]

How come there are no two holes?

[@NYDRAINS]

There are two but the customer dug out the pit before hand and only exposed one hole.

[@sergeantsewer856]

Are your building/ house traps clay or cast iron ?

[@NYDRAINS]

Cast iron

[@jimrichter9549]

Nice work as always, sir what type of cable machine do you recommend

[@NYDRAINS]

I use the Spartan 300

[@jimrichter9549]

Thank you very much keep up the good work

[@NYDRAINS]

Greetings, you definitely were! 🙌👏

[@bubblesmckenzie4125]

Wow that was great it took awhile though.

[@ajkleipass]

Lots of weird drain locations, but I think this is the first video I've seen that required an excavation and only uncovered a single port. Would it really kill us to have easily accessible plumbing? Imagine sticking the fuse / breaker box in these locations. Nobody would stand for it for long!

[@NYDRAINS]

The homeowner actually dug that up before I got there.

[@dock_yard1149]

No U trap here? So that's not NY code?

[@NYDRAINS]

Yes there was but just covered/or buried under dirt

[@shawnkauffman5537]

He got to the Root of the problem

[@GalaxyRangerNiko]

I am an instacart shopper at the moment and I have a customer who EVERY WEEK wants those wipes and multi packs of paper towels. I know she has a toddler but what is she doing with all the towels? How can you go through six or eight rolls of towels in a week? I hope she's not flushing all that! :p

[@NYDRAINS]

Sounds like it! Maybe hoarding for the pandemic 🤔

[@throttlebottle5906]

using them for everything(bathroom/kitchen hand drying/cleaning) and no ***cloth*** hand towels at all.
