Guys. Do not listen to the comments, demanding "more scope cam, more cleanup more this and that" Do your job and film whatever you like. And you will stay awesome!! 😍😍
I would argue that they should to their job first and and foremost and prioritize their standards over comments but at the same time, if not filming, or more importantly posting, what others want to see then what is the point of going through the additional trouble of filming and posting?
Im No excepert either, but I can already tell that Its basically collapsed, because of the roots in the tree more or less. Basically what had happend is that one root or more, has kept growing over the pipeline, to then make it crack and break apart, plus it clogged up in the making. That is why you see so many small roots coming out of the pipeline, and in the way i see it, they only have 2 options of how to restore the pipeline, and that is to either 1 cut down the tree or 2 move the pipeline in another direction away from the tree.
It's also not a good thing when water is spraying up from a concrete joint on the surface a few feet in from the end of the run near an uplift caused by a huge tree root, that's likely where the piece came from...
@@kenni963 You don't need to cut down the entire tree, just the specific root causing the problem. Either that, or install an entirely new storm drain system farther away from the tree...
Double Barrel attachment: cons - It's loud - It's fat - It's a different color than most of the attachments Double Barrel attachment: pros - It's loud - It's strong - It gets the job done - It's heckin *T H I C C*
So come on guys, story time, give us a video explaining who you are, what you do, and why you decided to be so awesome. (only half joking). It's satisfying as hell watching you guys clearing this crap (often literally) but... backstory people! And what's the story with Aussie sewers having that vertical pipe thing at the boundary?
TheChipmunk2008 responsibility varies. If it’s part of a piece of city infrastructure or public building it would be on government to fix, if the problem originated from a private dwelling it’s on the homeowners.
The next time anyone complains about how much jobs like this cost, remember this one little detail. That double barrel nozzle costs $525. Never complain again.
lazaglider you pay for what you get, and usually expensive tools last and almost always come with a hefty warranty period. It took 13 minutes to finish the job and probably costed a hundred dollars or more, and how many of these jobs must they do a day, easily enough for them to be able to buy a replacement one every week even after deducting wages and expenses.
@@eirebhoy132 I don't think you know how businesses work, and frankly I'm not here to educate you. Well, good luck to you when you start your own business, charging £20 per job. I'm going to say, convervative estimate, that it'll cost you about 20k in equipment to get started (not including a vehicle or PLI). So lets say you do 10 jobs a day, 7 days a week. It'll take you almost 4 months to break even. That's assuming you pay no tax, pay no wages, don't pay insurance, and have no other costs such as fuel for truck you don't own. Best of luck!
could someone explain to me what he's doing to unclog the drain? These videos are so cool and satisfying but I want to know what the double barrel is and how it's removing the roots. Thank you!
Penny P it kinda looks like they are putting a water pressure tool inside and the pressure pushes out what’s inside I think I’m not sure but that’s what it looks like 🤣
Basically the different nozzles he puts on the end of the snake cause different psi. the double barrel is two spinning nozzles both going at 5000 psi. when water is under that type of pressure it’s cuts so it’s cutting through the clog and pulling it out or pushing it through the pipe declogging the pipe.
@@pennyp4524 These heads have several rearward facing jets. They propel the device forward. Then they have some forward faces jets, they cut whatever they encounter. The rearward facing jets need to push out more water than the other jets in order for it to want to go forward.
How is it a guy that isn't a plumber finds your videos so dang fascinating to watch!? It's always the same thing, you come, unclog, and clean up! But I can't stop watching! Keep an coming Ollie!
The hose head has more (or a bigger) nozzle(s) which face backwards and one that faces forwards to cut through the blockage. It uses jet force to propel itself along a pipe, cleaning as it goes.
Would it help to paint some markings on the hose every few meters so you could quickly tell how far into the pipe it goes? Also, what makes the hose advance so easily up the pipe - a motor or the water pressure?
I am a blockage engineer from the UK, and just have a simple question, why do you always jet "Upstream" rather than down???? I always look for the nearest manhole, downstream from any blockage and jet from there. If you are rodding that, is of course upstream, but jetting should be with the flow, not against it.
That was one of the cleanest drain i've ever seen. In my 3rd world country, the drain is clogged by trash and people only care about it during rainy season
This is why in our later home we just planted only palm trees into the sidewalk. Our first home made the mistake of using some stupid approved tree, after five years the thing even started to push a fence made of bricks and steel. Getting a town permission to cut down the trees was also a pain in the ass, now we just don't, if anyone answer, the thing was just rotting inside and needed to be chopped.
Works more like a jetski engine that forces water backwards to move forward. The the nozzle has a jet tbat faces back along the hose which also pulls it into the pipe being cleaned. There is a smaller jet facing forward but still enough to break or cut clogs. Generally anything dislodged will wash back to you so you can lift it out so you dont just move the blockage to a new place.
Squirrels are funny things, my brother-in-law was checking the air filter on my car when he found it full of mini shredded wheat! I wonder how far down the road he would have chased me to get his breakfast back! 🤣 😱🥴
@@donnawoodman6249 We have native tree dwellers that are called possums. They are plant eating only, stay in trees, are usually very shy. At my last home we had lots, both ring tail possums and bushy ( or brush) tailed.
