I binge watch the hell out of these videos! I love his positive vibe throughout the entire job.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Awesome 👍

[@patbeckwith7502]

This has got to be my favourite. I love it when you get a good catch.All the best kiddo.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thanks 👍

[@nathannoble9741]

Good work.. your videos are good to fall asleep too. 😴 I think your videos could qualify to have labeled as ASMR. 😊

[@msruby68]

I haven't been watching as long as some, but so far, this is one of my favorites, if not my favorite.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Welcome

[@karenhall4371]

That was unbelievable! Your videos are fab, just going back through them all and never disappointed!😊

[@andrewthomson3165]

Big old roots

[@Green_House]

🐸 Great supervision by Toad. You obviously got to the root of the problem. It was a 'Branch Line'! 🤔

[@vids2002]

I thought the thumbnail was being extra but nope, legit that much and super thick. Also, I love how you are smart in every move you make. From constantly checking to make sure your on target in the pipes to making sure to be on the correct side of the hose when feeding it. Great video

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊 I’m honest and straight up mate. No click bait or what ever they call it from me lol

[@pcms7411]

Came for how to unglog me crapper and stayed for the battle of man v root! On ya mate!!!

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊 Glad you enjoyed it

[@brendadodson674]

I’m surprised there was a tree planted so close to the house. Here in Tx you need to plant a tree as least 30 feet from the house.

[@pattishoemaker4767]

Loved this video - BIG roots!

[@Gerrit-Max]

Good old storm water drain, it's really never disappointing is it ;)

[@rayoscroft3775]

Another good job gavin 😅

[@cliffjohnson2273]

those roots look like art work.

[@cherylwilliams2787]

Great job there!

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@martinmarsola6477]

An amazing method of tackling these roots. They are thick and huge. Hopefully they get this problem solved with the new pipe. Cheers mate! 🇳🇿👍😊🇺🇸

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊👍

[@zwz.zdenek]

The problem will never really be solved with trees around a weak plastic pipe. More videos for us, I suppose.

[@rachelbest7963]

Love watching your videos , nothing like that in UK, Rachel north Yorkshire UK

[@retired0307]

Reminded of "Tim The Toolman" show with the neighbor chatting over the fence but all you saw was the top of his hat.

[@francisremillard2010]

You could make the roots into an art display.. Very interesting shapes... All look super clean without the bark etc...

[@rickthelian2215]

That was enormous roots, hope we get a follow up😊 Sorry about the metal in the tyre, hatethe shit they leave on the road.🙄

[@kamoonrathewolfgod9189]

Really neet looking roots you removed from that storm drain.

[@roxanneabbott8424]

Fascinating video, thank you!!! Love your Toad!

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊🐸

[@the2060ish]

Good job ..👍 .

[@shonaghroberts4805]

Love your work, another Aussie boss

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊

[@Grimmarox]

Who isore excited about this episode because he said ROOTS!!! Cannot wait for the follow-up

[@williamkennison8920]

Gavin, I still have wrench envy. Those adjustable spanners are way better and more reliable than what we have with our short jaws here.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

They are great 👍 you need to get yourself some

[@williamkennison8920]

I probably will if I can find someone that will send them to the states or that sells them here. Do you have the brand name

[@rickwright7267]

congratulations good job your video are so amazing to watch one thing is that you dont quit until the job is done how long it take to do it

[@rickwright7267]

thank you so much

Greetings from Rio de Janeiro - Brazil

[@robertkreiling1746]

Well you sure know how to get to the root of the problem !

[@theultimatereductionist7592]

Was watching a movie on Netflix (some dumb sci-fi crap) for about 5 minutes. Got bored. Distracted. Came over to this video: watched all 31 minutes of this video straight through. Could not look away.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍 Be sure to check some of my other epic drain clearing vids 😊

[@TattooTaffy1]

You earned your keep on this one

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

You bet I did!

[@snikkerr1949]

What kind of tree is that? I wonder if this happens much here in the US. Seems to be a big problem in Australia.! 😊

[@treddy85au]

when I saw the thumbnail I thought they were worms till I read the title lol

[@michaelkimberling7307]

It’s almost like the Jetter stripped the bark off

[@Firemission-qw3lj]

Hey just a suggestion. Before you use any nozzle, blast it a few seconds so we can see what it's gonna do after you put it to work.

[@kelenafahie6452]

That's not roots...that's tree branches!😮😏😉

[@StaitlyNatters]

The size of those roots, should advertise for aquarium aquascaping.

[@stevo68]

Thick roots can be a good thing.

[@stevefrederick8215]

Great video as always.a follow up video would be nice. Is the patch glued on or just slid into place otherwise how else do the tree roots get in.🇳🇿👍👍

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊 I think the owner was going to do the repair himself in the end.

[@tracymcdougal6381]

Insane roots

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

They were sooo thick!

[@larryehrlich57]

How are roots getting into plastic pipe? It makes no sense unless the installers are not glueing the pipe joints together??? That's the only way I can think of. Please respond. Thanks and blue skys.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Yeah correct. Normally joins that are no longer any good

[@catherinebrady2640]

That was definitely a difficult one.

[@southcarolinagrizfan1594]

Looks like you pulled an octopus out of there.

[@paulmonk7820]

Wondering about the pipe material...is it pvc for the full length? Is it easily broken through? Are the joints sealed?

[@chrishelms1967]

You need to mount that root up on the shop wall.....

[@SaveOurWater]

Makes me think of a den of snakes. Probably would make me jump a few times, making sure they are roots.

[@mariannerasmussen4142]

😮😮😮😮woooowwww

[@1975original]

is that a damn tree stump growing right next to it?

[@raymondrasco3388]

Your on the wrong side of the road. LOL

[@gunlover1955]

New Plastic pipe time!

[@Jayelsea]

What an amazing video!!! Great tenacity going after those roots! What kind of wood IS that that the roots are that strong?

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you 😊

[@StaitlyNatters]

I wonder how many intros have been left on the ‘cutting room floor’ after you arrive and find the usual ‘bog standard’ job?

[@robsmith6281]

One of the labours of Hercules this felt like.

[@Clearanceman2]

I think it would take me a long time to get used to driving on the left side of the road.

[@EarleneBriggs]

[@freddie488]

Stupid question but where do you get the water you use?

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

From the nearest hose tap

[@freddie488]

@@penetratorblockeddrains thank you, I wasn't sure if you took your own :)

[@CassT85]

Will there be a part 2?

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

I feel from the conversation the owners was going to get his son to do the repair and give me a call if they had problems.

[@mariagdaws6083]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@wild-and-crazy4936]

what size line you use

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

1/4 inch mini reel

Chocolate syrup.

A bolt was the culprit in the end 😂

@@penetratorblockeddrains I bet he likes corn

[@mftripz8445]

If only I could get my cannabis roots looking like that, shit. That plant must have been living the highlife from all that poowater

[@Boodieman72]

That's not a root, that's a cable :D

[@gregjones923]

Why don't you mark your hose with a sharpie every foot so you know the distance?

[@CenPapi]

I'll never understand why people plant shrubs and trees directly next to/on top of their drain pipes.

[@fnafplayer6447]

I think the best solution is replace the pipes so this doesn't happen again

[@zwz.zdenek]

It's hard to find tough enough pipes for a shallow run with trees.

[@ScaniaK124EB]

Looks like chocolate milk but it isn't

[@lisalfrank]

Am I the only one that saw the snake skin 2:45

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

I’m not sure it was a snake skin. I think I looked at it on the day and initially thought the same..

Whys he sound like Ollie from drain addict

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

When I first watched one of his videos I thought this bloke sounds like me lol..

[@gmamose9152]

What's the weird little brown thing on top of the black toolbox by the curb drain? Is he copying ratty? from drain addict? I had to stop watching that, it was just so gross with the drain addicts obsession with corn and ratty. Ick. Glad you're not like that. Well, at least as far as the little brown rubber thing goes, it IS like the drain addict's channel. I like it when the penetrator pulls out the hunks of roots. That's cool

[@jna466]

Maybe you could call up a legend and get ole double barrel a job back on camera

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Double barrel would get stuck in the that pipe.

[@ufo5278]

Олли и ратти напоминает сильно. Выбрось эту жабу. Лишняя

[@ParArdua]

Hard labour or what. Don't know how you even quote for a job like this with its unknowns.

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

It’s not quoted work.

[@davidcorbett6694]

Why feel the need to copy ollie, the drain addict... Should have kept it original

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@srichmond15]

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!

[@ex-trucker1674]

no good images, therefore a thumbs down !!!! don't be an amateur!!!!!!

[@guytero8812]

This guy has clearly just started his business as you can see everything is new. And he's copying the other Ozzi guy that's been around for years. Don't copy others. Create your own unique channel. Stop with the little frog. A big thumbs down from me. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

[@penetratorblockeddrains]

Thank you for watching the video 👍👍👍 The 🐸 is staying 👍👍👍 Just because I have new equipment doesn’t mean I’ve just stated on my own. Your way off the mark 😂 Have a good day 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@majadebij]

@@penetratorblockeddrains He is right though that you are copying the Format of Drainaddict.. including talking to the small toy pet and starting your engine at beginning of video. There is nothing wrong with a nice new penetrator channel, your videoquality is ok, your equipment is ok, the challenges you face are real. But part of the creativity is 'borrowed/not your own' . While you have enough potential to make this 'your own' thing instead of using anothers guys concept (who is just as you making a living) So i agree there with Guy, but i wish you the best for this channel. But don't copy. It looks bad.

[@andreasalt8938]

Don't change a thing Gavin, it's perfect just the way it is. I wonder if the trolls, who wrongly assume things, ever managed to create anything themselves. I was married to an electrician who started his own business, relentless to get started, long hours, expensive, customers that didn't pay, phone ringing day and night. I used to sit at the kitchen table at 2am, breastfeeding my daughter and typing invoices and estimates with the other arm. Bloody hard work I know through experience. Also, as the author of books, my son is screenwriter, that there is one overriding ARC, that needs to be adhered to that makes a successful creator and you got it nailed. Be it a plumber, writer or whatever, the same rules apply for all. Watching you from Suffolk on Gt Britain and totally addicted to your content. ❤ 👌

[@garethmccarthy2990]

Come on your totally ripping off Drain Addict 🤮🤮 Try some originality, get rid of the frog.

[@above.average.gaming.natio3026]

no

[@Gynotai]

That’s what I thought. Swinging arms, plastic animal, you even sound like him (but I’m sure that can’t be helped). You don’t want to be know as the Drain Addict ripoff.
