Hi Roger I was hoping you may please help me out with my question. I just subscribed and liked and love all of your videos! I want to be a plumber, but I am scared of crawl spaces and what I will find in there. I love everything else about the job though, do you have any advice for me? How often a day do plumbers have to go under crawl spaces, and if so is it hard to breathe down there?
@RogerWakefield
@RogerWakefield 4 года назад
Psych Student it's not very often that we have to go into crawl spaces but it does happen. Wear a bright light so you can see everything clearly and don't crawl into areas where you might get stuck! Does that help?

Grateful Mom! In my gut I knew this was our problem which occurred last night after trying to use the disposal for sweet potato peels. Nothing we did from the sink side helped free anything in the drain. Reset button didn't pop, wrench twisted on bottom of disposal freely, water was spinning in the sink but not going down. I watched this and a few times you make it seem so easy. I had my 15 year old son watch again with me and he was game to try. I nervously geared up. We completely successfully found the ground clogged mess in the "P" trap, as you called it. My son had fun finding it and helping me fix our problem vs calling in a company I don't know and who knows how much it would have cost. On limited funds I am so grateful for this video and hanging on to our $$.

I’ve been seriously thinking about becoming a plumber. I’ve been doing some research and came across your channel. Then all of a sudden, this single mother of two with a deceased husband and no one to call, had her kitchen sink and dishwasher both stop draining. So to your channel I went. your video helped me. I fixed it, had fun doing it, and I feel pretty damn good about it. Was this a sign that I should follow through and get a job as an apprentice? Well, i don’t know, but I’m gonna take it that way!

You just saved me from calling a plumber. Our kitchen sink got clogged, and I wasn't going to call a plumber on a Saturday evening. I watched this video and learned that the clog wasn't necessarily a complicated thing. I checked out the pipes, followed your instructions, and guessed exactly where the clog was base on what leaked when the the connectors were loosened a bit. Thank you very much for the great instructions.

Roger Wakefield, you are my hero! We had a kitchen sink clog last night (whole bunch of pasta through the garbage disposal, OOPS - lesson learned), and called Roto Rooter after multiple Draino attempts failed. The guy came in, took one look at the sink, did not check any pipes and quoted us $400 to snake the drain. NO WAY! I knew there was help on RU-vid, and there you were. This video was clear, helpful and 100% right. Pasta was choking the P-trap and we had it cleared in five minutes. For FREE. YOU ROCK! Do you accept tips?? Venmo, PayPal, other??

Very helpful but my sink backs up on both sides when water is ran or dishwasher is ran, pretty sure its a grease problem somewhere into the wall piping. Was hoping the video would cover the best way to snake out and explain exactly what I'm snaking into most commonly so I can find out where this dang stoppage is. The sink will drain very slowly over the course of a few hours but fills right back up after water runs for a minute or so. Any thoughts sir??

Thank you for the free lesson. I had a garbage disposal fail and one of my friends put a lot of chopped broccoli down the drain. It would have made it but the downward pipe went into a straight T with a clean out on one end. With out the 45 angle to predispose the water to the correct path it would clog there a lot. I've also used Hot Shot acid drain cleaner as well further down the line. A big lesson for most homeowners if they don't already know is to follow the disposal with lots of hot water to ensure it gets to the main line.

I'm in a condo, both sides of my kitchen sink are clogged, and my washing machine drain pipe 6' around the corner. Don't have access to sewer access outside and the p-trap under the sink is not removable (most glued together). I was able to remove part of the non-garbage disposal sink side vert pipe and tried to run a long pipe snake down it, only gets to the turn to the p-trap and then stops (maybe that flap you showed?). I'm currently waiting for some Zep Liquid Heat (said it works on standing water clog) to filter down both non-disposal side and washing machine pipe (water does move down pipe 1 inch / 8hrs~). If that all doesn't work, I'll either have to figure out how to tear out and rebuild the sink pipe-works to get at the P-trap and beyond, or I'll have to call a plumber...

I have no experience in plumbing whatsoever. However this video was so easy to follow I just used my hands, a bucket and an auger. There was some stuff inside the p-trap and in the wall. Though it took minimal effort. It was so nice to see the water run through. I don't do any of this ever, but you've definitely always amused me and taught me things. I hope you keep making videos. Thanks Roger.

I am not a plumber. About a year ago, I was helping a friend with a clogged bathroom sink in a century old home. The stoppage was in the wall or the horizontal run in the crawl space. The horizotnal pipe to the tee was soldered in. The tee (straight, not sanitary) and pipes were 1.5” diameter. No matter how much I tried, I could not get either end of the ¼” snake to go past the tee and go down the pipe. The snake continually hung up on the step created by the pipe in the tee despite trying several different kinks at the end of the snake. Any suggestions for next time? I did manage to blow through the clog with a garden hose, not an approach I like to do in a home.

Mr. Wakefield what do you think about cleaning pipes with vinegar and baking soda? I usually put baking soda in first on my kitchen sink then vinegar and then a pot of boiling water.

What is the best solution to clean the inside of these pvc pipes? I noticed the one that goes into the actual plumbing in the wall has gunk build up in the circular of the pvc. Also, what is best to use regularly so the pvc doesn’t smell? I removed some of the pvc and wow did it smell.
