[@jerryfitzpatrick3667]

Penetrator would be proud of you for getting that massive Roooooooooooooooot out in one piece. Great Job!!

[@margreetanceaux3906]

Jem pulling that 3rd one out with the cork screw was a masterpiece!

[@Invisibleman7]

Nice to hear Joe out on job. Jem loves root jobs. Have a great weekend all

[@pauldurkee4764]

It's nice to see joe in the videos again. I think there's a good case for bagging up the wipes for the customer to dispose of, and charge them for the time it takes to retrieve them. That root you pulled out joe, that was gruesome.👍

[@jeana1245]

these are throwback video's joe doesn't do unblock as much now since he's running jem's other company which consists of cctv work which can't be filmed for obvious reasons, joes still with mersey rod, we just won't see him as much now,

[@paulabodine5317]

This is why, Jem is the “leader of the pack”. 😉

[@The1born2fly]

I hope people are now seeing what all of these “flushable wipes” are really doing to the sewer lines. 95 percent of that always seems to be the issue. Stop using soooooo many wipes for the Love of a Pete! Those sewer systems are just not designed to move those lumpy things through.

[@Sandra-dm8rd]

But most clients say “ we don’t use wipes”🙄🙄

[@Rommel_209]

Switch to bidet.

[@susanwahl6322]

I feel like they are using them instead of paper. Now that’s stupid.

[@Newbie-is2xr]

Some people are just too stupid.. and ignorant. Until they get landed with the bill... zero sympathy for idiots..

[@berrieds]

It may be worth noting, the dark crust on the outer layer of the sewage is a sign of oxidation. The more oxidised, the longer it has been there, and the darker it will be! Can help to age the blockage.

[@tomvarley4344]

The very definition of root cause!

[@jeana1245]

Love the fact you're starting to compile old video's into one, love it leo, keep it up, also for any viewer that is new, this video is a throwback to the unblocks the team did, these aren't recent ones, also we don't see joe as much since he runs jems other company doing cctv work which can't be filmed for obvious reasons but he's still with mersey rod, overall love the throwbacks leo 👍

[@robinharrison3907]

Fantastic Teamwork ❤️👍❤️Amazing how many wipes people try to get down the toilet 😂😂

[@jenwanner4911]

Holy cow, it's a good thing the "Root Destroyer" was on the job!! Way to go Jem, you worked your butt off on that one. Cheers👍👍👍

[@ABuller2]

Nice compilation of older videos. Sure do miss Joe. Joe had a time with all the wipes! Jem the root destroyer. 😊

[@rmc24]

I remembered those gates as soon as I saw them. What's wrong with me...?

[@kevinbowden1155]

Great to see jetter 3 back on the scene. 👍

[@steveb1972]

Should let the customer see that pile of wipes!

[@katebarker5612]

Did Jem leavening phone on the wall? Great revisit of some old favourites.

[@bartsargant2635]

Jem sir. That root clean out is perfect for Justin, Joe or Andy. You need to put the juniors to work. I am 65 and do the same thing. l handle the rough stuff and the kids on the job won't learn or cope when the job gets rough.

[@JessicaS40]

Well done Jen man who takes pride in his work

[@traceywoodall6937]

Well what a great compilation. 1st one Jem showed me what it feels like to do a summasault lol that camera wizzing round sent me dizzy lol. 2nd one poor Joe was always haunted by wipes no wonder he does a different job now lol. It looked like he had a wash load in there I wonder if Persil would help lol. 3rd Jem such a hard worker and that’s why he has a great team behind him. Thanks for all of these again. Love ya all 🥰

[@mickwein3359]

Spring rooting season, gotta love it!!!

[@carolkuper-pyle7595]

Thank you from the cats Jem!!!! 🐈🐈‍⬛

[@williamprice3700]

Good job on the roots! 😀

[@MikeAbbott3]

I must say, for Jem almost being a pensioner he sure does have a magnificent head of hair.

[@SuperRocketdog1]

It could be the wafting of his day job does it!😂😂😂

[@terrihowell3584]

Poor Jack. He always gets all the wipes!!❤❤❤

[@michaelcanada757]

Look at Jem, sounding like a proper New Yorker.😊 Good morning gents, looking forward to the shoutouts.😊

[@randyvac01]

The last manhole I would suggest full replacement. The bricks are falling apart, and roots will fill it back up again.

[@Sandra-dm8rd]

Excellent!!!

[@martinmarsola6477]

A incredible derooting this day. Jem is a 😊perfectionist at this. An incredible video to watch. See you on the next! 🇬🇧🙂👍🇺🇸

[@4ofSeven]

Best birthday present ever. Thanks guys.❤ 🇨🇦

[@jeanwalker8276]

Love love you guys❤❤❤

[@WayneB-vz1mi]

Wipe soup anyone ......... Nice job Joe

[@tomsandyelliott5170]

Jen and Joe! Always a great video!

[@mighty22380]

Most alleyways I see on here need a good clean and a good pressure wash and my word some people really need to clean their patios

[@rickthelian2215]

I remember this place😊

[@mackmilly6715]

A quick question for you lads, my soil stack keeps blocking for our toilet upstairs, the sink and bath drain via another smaller pipe to our drains. I'm going to cut out a circle in the soil pipe. I don't know what the things are called that go in the hole once I've cleared the soil pipe? Watching your videos is giving me inspiration to do it myself and I hope I don't get splashed by doo doo because I would vom 😅

[@melaniegorgos8071]

Ich liebe jedes Euer Videos !Ihr seid sowas von Mega fleißig, und arbeitet gewissenhaft! Top Arbeiter seid ihr !😎👍👏💩

[@clare999]

I know never to ask to borrow your screwdriver! 😂😂

[@shaunepegrum]

That was a great length for the video 👍🏼. Nice job Andy on that editing. See ya next time 🤙😎🇦🇺

[@billmonery9244]

Always a great day when jetter 3 Joe makes an appearance

[@chrisgregory2261]

If I remember correctly jem and Justin did this one

[@ryanchristopherson7479]

Jem’s a stud.

[@sforza209]

20:57 one those trash picker upper things would do a fanatic job at getting all those roots in that deep manhole! Wouldn’t ya think?

[@SuperRocketdog1]

Nice to hear the birdsong. So it’s wipes again!! Why oh why are people still using them!😡💩 you lads always do a grand job.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰💕❤️😍🇬🇧🇬🇧🐶🐶

[@virginia_estherginger41785]

G'day guys, hope all are well

[@samuelfellows6923]

1:39; 😄 ~ the commentary to the squeak

[@jaycee1980]

The amount of wipes in that second video is astounding. I still think it's about time drainage companies were obliged to report these to the local water board, who would then issue the property owner with a fine. Why should all of us have to pay increased water rates for these idiots?

[@chrishelms1967]

Good work Lads

[@somegeezer4840]

Knowing how tight Jem is with money, that was deff a fart 😁😅

[@statementleaver8095]

Tight as a Jemima Puddle Ducker's Arse 😂😂

[@marcusbingham1625]

👏👏👏👏

[@4ofSeven]

Joe. Just a suggestion. Line the bucket with the bag and throw the wipes in there. Less steps and less cleanup.

[@slc1161]

I tried suggesting that several videos ago and some azz wipe chewed me up and down. Bitc’d at me about voicing something to keep it neat and easy to move. Guess you didn’t catch it because you’re not a woman. The lout who did it was obviously misogynistic.

[@alexanderpocock8711]

Nice to see you busy Jem 😂

[@gnigneti]

Jem, nel primo video è l'acchiappa gatti😂😂

[@davide.s.9880]

With you working on one of these deep man holes with roots and you're working by your self. Why don't you get a shoulder harness and a anchor you can hook to the van or screw a anchor into the ground . This way you will be safe and you can use both hands. That might speed up the job.

[@allanf1988]

When you's are running low on water and dont have any outdoor taps, have you's never thought about buying a fire hydrant attachment? Makes it easier for yourselves?

[@aquissuk]

You have to request permission and are charged for access. The water companies will loan you to adapter and have meter built into them.

[@johnturner4400]

Fire hydrants are for the fire service.

[@chriseccles1454]

🎉🎉🎉🎉😊

[@margreetanceaux3906]

I think I could deal with the turds, the stench etcetera, but those clumps of wipes are just awful. Remember Joe, a couple of years ago, couldn’t stop gagging, so I guess I’m excused…

[@rooziej]

I do miss Joe as a regular drain technician

[@susie7504]

😢 Jem, I can't see the manhole for the shadow is 😊casting over. Just to let you know,

[@user-tj9sq8nl7n]

You need to make you a new delver-one with a longer handle.

[@emma5115]

Wipes jobs seem to take so much effort and water. I'd be black listing them unless they stop using wipes!

[@steveb1972]

4:22 the sound of success baby! Oops, wrong channel!😳

[@statementleaver8095]

Lord have Mersey&Tyne 😂😂

[@greenbeginner3353]

Do they not sell regular toilet paper in the local stores?

[@jeffc7486]

Im willing to bet at somepoint the treatment facilities are gonna start recycling all those wipes into t-shirts to be green and everything lol

[@kvnbrow]

Reruns

[@johnturner4400]

I thought you only got an oooo with typhoo?

[@Sandra-dm8rd]

🍪

[@eisbeinGermany]

when i see the amount of wipes being used in Britain, no wonder the people complain that the salaries are to low, really without joking now,

[@PatrickSwayzeOnDbol]

I'm sure I've seen all these before?

[@tomconway8061]

Who came up with the term lovely jubbly

[@terryharris9631]

thought Jem was retired??

[@Lawrie_B]

You really should be able to charge extra for all the wipes jobs

[@sandimccarthy2067]

Alrighty.......regarding these wipes. They're a problem and I hear the concern with flushing them. Why not remove them from the blockage, the garbage you can access, rather than try and chop it all up and continue to run it through the drainage pipes the rest of the way? It's obviously a huge issue with all of that trying to pass thru that system to begin with or you wouldn't be there.

[@lilmsmetal]

1st job, could the customer not have just closed the cats in 1 room? Some people are so inconsiderate.

[@JessicaS40]

I know ffs some people are unbelievable

[@sallywatton2580]

Wipes really? Is there not enough info about them not being flushable ?

[@asw16177]

BuT IT saYS tHeYre flUShable 🥴🥴

[@paulamoor3098]

why not put the cats in a room, then they can´t run out. lol, i wonder if the people with the massive wipes might want them all back to wash and reuse? you all must have a major shortage of toilet paper there in the UK? hmm if they run out of wipes, do they move to wash cloths next? the cities must have a real big problem in the sewage plants! wouldn´t it be much easier to use a root cutting nozzle to clean out in the pipes?

[@tomateandenhorn8821]

😂❤🐈‍⬛

[@susanwahl6322]

The main problem is that they use them instead of toilet tissue. That will not work.

[@IanFarquharson2]

Don’t worry about the cats, tidy up your yard once in a decade.

[@smoochiepoo32]

Wipes galore? More like wipe city. I think there are more wipes than poo!!,

[@user-gj8ix7jg2q]

Another compilation? nothing new?

[@lshep9728]

When will people understand wipes cannot be flushed? ughhh....

[@user-ok6xv6hs2o]

Почему они такие тупые??? Почему из пустого колодца не работают???

[@anythingoldmechanical]

It's absolutely discusting, that people flush wipes, then you guys have to sort all the mess out. Charge them DOUBLE.

[@smrriles5668]

1 it's disGusting 2 it's their job ,wipes keep them in business

[@Beck-fx1du]

I just started watching about a week ago. I do find it very difficult to hear you talk, as in maybe a different microphone? Also, you sound like you are out of breath all the time. I now have to mute your videos, although I do enjoy them.

[@janetsteingold-yt1xu]

I’m pretty disgusted that women flush sanitary products down the loo when I tells you on the packet not to 🤷‍♀️
