I can imagine it now with him coming across a huge clog in a drain: "crikey! it's a big one!!" (proceeds to immediately remove the clog, fixing the drain.). 😆 Plumbers are incredibly helpful!

They should have use smooth PVC SCH40 or heavier pipe only as I saw some really cheap thin corrugated pipe, you get what you pay for. Great job on getting it cleaned out, this really needs new drain pipe replacement or pay you to come out each year to clean the drains out.

@MrChrissy1r Год назад

I often wonder why we men are so fascinated with blocked drains and their unblocking? On doing some drainage work on my old house we uncovered a 6 inch earthen ware pipe run over 12 ft long packed solid with roots, we carefully pulled the pipes off and there was 12 ft of bound up roots weeds and mud lying on the ground like a monster turd.

Looks like those drains by the pool were turned into planters with all the dirt in them. That was some sticky clay by the drain pump it. Good for pottery! (Just kidding).

@stevehaug3603 Год назад

If I had to take a guess, I'd say that the drain system and sump pits have had no maintenance or cleaning done on them since the day it was installed, and especially the sump closest to the pool.

@patvisek222 Год назад

That was a mess of the pipes being broken. It amazes me that you were able to get so many roots out to the street! I sure hope, if it was the fault of the contractor that broke the pipes from thwir heavy equipment, that they will pay for the repair.

@HappilyHomicidalHooligan Год назад

I'm not an expert, however, my suggestion to the homeowner would be have the entire line dug up and relaid to ensure proper slope for drainage as well as to replace ALL sections of corrugated pipe and any damaged/distorted (oval instead of round due to being squished) PVC pipe that's found... If they can afford it, I would suggest complete replacement of ALL storm drain pipe with the local equivalent of USA Schedule 40 PVC pipe...S-40 PVC is thicker walled and thus MUCH stronger than the pipe I see being used here, it might not have cracked when the machine drove over it and if the joints are properly glued, are MUCH less prone to tree root infiltration as well...

You HAVE heard the saying "It's a dirty job, but someone must do it"?? Well !! Thanks so much for being Willing to do it. I have never, in my seventy years of life: Ever seen so many LAZY People , who think this world OWES them a living. I earned everything I have, and I owe NO ONE ANYTHING FOR WHAT I HAVE. Still: There are those who want what I have, but they refuse to do what it takes to get it. PATHETIC !!! Jesus said that in the Last Days before his return: " Men will be proud, blasphemous, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God, Boastful, Unholy, SLOTHFUL (LAZY), And they will call Evil :Good, and that which is Good: They will call EVIL.".

So I'm sitting here watching this vid of this guy in Australia cleaning out a yard drain.......my wife comes in the room, looks at the vid for a second and says " See,...some men don't procrastinate and actually do their projects around the house". I paused for a second trying to wrap my head around this new batch of words that were apparently said to incite some sort of negative dialogue. I replied " ONE, this isn't his house.....TWO, this guy is getting PAID to do this, it's his business. And THREE, men only like to do FUN projects like this one. not those ones you ask me to do" She then stormed off which tells me the logic overload was way too much for her.. :)

@cecilgore495 Год назад

That first drain by the pool has not been cleaned in a long time, on the second one that had the sump pump the insurance on the home should cover the damage done to the line. the third one no one should ever plant trees or bushes near drain lines.

It actually looks like it's alive. It's mainly around the Asian restaurants because they pour there old oil down the drain. It's the creepiest thing I've ever seen.

@thegrinch8161 Год назад

At least you’re not doing what I did for the time I was in OZ. I was in about 20 foot and between roots and other crapola I was getting severely pissed aff so I used 10 litres of a strong weed, killer and came back a fortnight later to find almost all of the a hole neighbours trees were dead, I was a wee bit worried until the customer said if it stops the roots from growing back then she and hubby were happy. As a bonus my team and I got a case of beer. PS, nice thorough job. 🙏👍

@michaelkimberling7307 Год назад

I assume those pipes are made of sdr/ thin wall pvc? I’m a service plumber in the US. For yard drains around here they use that black corrugated plastic a lot and I can’t run my machine through it because we worry about tearing it up.

Those pipes are just about on the surface. Can't blame the contractor for breaking them. Installation of the pipes was shoddy. Look at all the indentations and oval shape. That drain needs to be reinstalled. The original drain layer was an absolute butcher.

I have enjoyed very much watching your videos but I must say that if you start coming up with that much dirt water after being in so long the best thing I could say to the homeowner would be to just have all new piping put in it would be a lot cheaper in the long run and when they put it in they should put concrete around each joint that we keep it from breaking apart and letting roots in😂
