Manhattan Water Main Repair

While adhering to a DEP 3 Day notice, we encountered a heavy leak in the tap hole that was flooding out the roadway. Watch to see how the water is pumped out while excavating so the tap connection could be turned off.

I love plumbing. Watching this shows me a different aspect. I have a buddy who actually said when he used to live in manhattan and did plumbing, it was always Harris Water Main and Sewer

[@danielbrinkman8069]

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

Ha- That is very funny. He is actually a good guy!

[@AldoDiedricks-uz2rq]

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

@@AldoDiedricks-uz2rq We have heard that before!

[@user-ws2ud6sd5c]

Awsome stuff.......a concrete cutting saw and a mini rubber track hoe would be helpfull.....just a suggestion...

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

Thank you! Appreciate the support !!

[@OmegaBlue-gb5bu]

Thanks for showing real water main repair, there are so many exaggerated videos where you see one guy working on the repairs with water spewing everywhere because they purposely didn't have the water turned off so they could look cooler and go viral.

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

Our pleasure! This is the real world! Thank you for the support!

[@edswider9309]

Are you kidding that shit happens

[@edswider9309]

It happened to me years ago

[@REXXSEVEN_II]

8:09 I call that machine a "Dig 'Em". Because that's what it does!

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

I think we have a new name for our backhoes Harris Water! 😆

[@Keith_Mikell]

Great video. The foreman wanted to get it done. He’s not a teacher. He’s a doer. You guys are gonna have to soften him up some for the camera. Send him to some classes.

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

He started acting class last week 😬😬😬

Guy said, pump is ancient!!!.......you can still see wipe joint lead to brass joints in Pompeii,from the time of the ancient Roman empire!!!!!

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

👍👍👍👍

[@REXXSEVEN_II]

Just curious. How were you able to make sure the water did not become electrified during this work?

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

Thanks for the question! Thankfully we did not encounter any electric. What made you think we may have been exposed?

[@REXXSEVEN_II]

@@HarrisWaterandSewerMy mistake, I thought that some of the water that was leaking was going under the electrical manhole cover.

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

@@REXXSEVEN_II That would have been a problem lol

[@BWIL2515]

Suggestion show the repair I just watched a hole being dug

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

We agree with you! We will be showing more of the repairs over the coming weeks

[@BWIL2515]

Oops found the next video my old ass

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

@@BWIL2515 LOL! Glad you found it!

[@mattlowry8256]

Is there any chance I could get a tee shirt size large!!!!! Love the content and for some reason love the company and I don’t even work there, but if I did what a career to have in the city!!!!! Let me know where to send my info lol!!!!! If I do not get a shirt I will still continue to watch.

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

Thank you for the love! It is much appreciated! Funny enough, people ask for our hoodies and tee shirts all the time because the "look cool". We can certainly send you a tee in size large and a hoodie if you want. Please send an email [e-mail] including your delivery info

[@geop3309]

Not really a water main leak would call that a service leak.

I think most of the crews are from Trinidad

[@HarrisWaterandSewer]

We have many employees from Trinidad! Not quite all, but a lot!
