Not sure if it was intentional, but I like how you flipped your valve lever around so the next time it goes loose, it won't accidentally open up on you again👍

When in trouble call in Gavin, the pro's pro! Always fascinating to see the master at work. Tough job when you can't get in to the neighbor's yard on a common drainage. On more than 1 occasion, I had to call in the city to clear the main city lines beneath the old alley between homes. Too much neighborhood grease since the 40s and 50s and local restaurant grease pits.

@PaulMack1249 Жыл бұрын

It seemed like something was wrong when the roots weren’t being cut properly. The sound, the feel, and finally a glance at the pressure gauge proved there was a decrease in pressure that you located at the source (out of camera) and corrected. Amazing what a difference that made. I never knew that pressurized water focused through a narrow orifice could produce that kind of cutting power. I really enjoy these videos. By the way, what’s the name of the jingle you play when driving the Penetrator truck? My grandkids like dancing to it!

Great video Gavin, you give that drain a thorough cleaning of them roots well done, do feel sorry for people just buying a property and having problem with the drains just after moving in, i think people selling there homes should have to do a survey on there drains before selling.

@penetratorblockeddrains Жыл бұрын

I believe people should check plumbing pipes.

@josephj6521 Жыл бұрын

Agree. It’s unfortunate. Happens all the time (stormwater and sewerage). The cost to check every single home prior to an auction is a deterrent. I’m surprised authorities don’t make it law that sellers do the inspections and prove pipes are good prior to a sale.

@DominicNJ73 Жыл бұрын

@@josephj6521 I can't speak for the rest of my state (New Jersey, USA) but my town has an ordnance that requires sellers to inspect their pipes, and make corrections, before selling their homes. You can bypass that ordnance though if the buyer is made aware of any problems pre sale.

@ray5186 Жыл бұрын

Hey Gavin. I’ve noticed on the last couple videos your Jetter engine turned over hard at first. This could be due to various things but usually it’s a weak battery/bad connections or the automatic decompression system inside the engine may not be working properly. Just wanted to let you know mate before it possibly causes a problem.

roots in infrastructure is issue we have. About every 18 months it gets clogged. old iron infra pipe, rusted. Seems they refuse to replace it because of cost - 3 pipes to a shared pit on a neighbours property, 50k fix, trees, garage, concrete, big mess. we get about 6 clear months after they cut it, then issues start on and off until a full clog.I pop it at the bottom io with a plunger until I can not. Its annoying, been told just to call infra supplier first now if I can see a clog at the bottom io, not the usual process of calling a plumber and charging plumber back to infra.
