Most definitely.. u said u didnt wanna flush the rest of sludge down and covered it but u shoulda flushed it down and jetted 1 more time for good measure and all good..was kind of lazy to me. Poor old lady got shitcken noodle soup all in her backyard. Only givin 2 sense for future reference since u asked. Love ur vids keep up the work

ew

Word.

its the LED light in the camera they flash at high speeds.

Some are definitely nicer than others! A lot of creepy crawly bugs 😂

Lol.. come work with us for a day... I work for a municipal wastewater company...

Brian Lungociu You ever thought of doing some videos? I’m sure that many people would enjoy them!

@@DrainPros That's what a 2,500+ PSI Pressure Washer is for... Either that or a Napalm Flamethrower...

Ya it's the city fault that you pushed your problem to there drain not professional

Definitely would have done that on most jobs, on this one didn’t want to add more sludge back in with the city sewer not open 👍

@R. Ive just keep flushing. My 2 hour showers are hell on the bill but never a clog!

@@brandoncaldwell95 lmao i installed jet showers & jet flush

Haha will have to try it on the next one to confirm 😂.. stupid thing has to many features!

The led flashlights appear to strobe on some cameras. Its due to the wavelength.

Cassandra Todhunter Thanks for watching Cassandra 👍

You must not have been listening when Ratty told you that no one human could eat that much corn. That it was coming from all of the shippy sewers that have been improperly installed and don't drain worth a good health bowel movement

@@cassandratodhunter144 I keep looking for Ratty and the corn

Yeah it’s a shame when people don’t take care of there properties! Cleaning and organizing doesn’t cost much and everyone is capable of doing it!

legend still says, the poop is still on the side of the house

From what I could see, the lady at the door was dressed in Indian or Middle Eastern garments. They are not the cleanest cultures. Even if you are poor, you can still rake the leaves & try to keep your property looking decent. On another note, why are people putting baby wipes down the toilet? They go in the trash!!!

@@barbrn Tampons too!

@@DrainPros I don't know if the people own this house, but renters are the worst. They don't care what the place looks like inside or out. They just think it's someone else's job.

Our two tow behind jetters have a water 250 gallon holding tank which on full pressure takes us about 12-15 minutes to blow through. If we start running low we will connect a hose to the house connection and continue to fill as we jet. Were good to jet as long as the water is above the pump prime level when we start 👍

nidoevin1 Love to spread the trade.. pretty soon we’re going to have to put you on a van to go to work! 💪👍

Drain Pros I just help my dad snake drains for a living but we just don’t do jetting

nidoevin1 Awesome 👏 anyone brave enough to cable drains has my respect! It’s nice having the jetter as a back up to get the clog open faster if the drain machine is struggling! If you see any jet videos that you have a question about let me know and I’ll do my best to help! 👍

Thanks Green Planet! I’ll try my best to keep them coming.. appreciate the support 👍

😂 I worked with a guy that called it “Churnin the dookie butter”

No human eats that much CORN. That Corn and grease came from the unmaintained town sewer. Sewer mains in the street are only pitched at 1/16th" per foot (.005) On outlying sewers, it often isn't enough water flow to move the solids. The water runs out of the solids creating blockages. If the pipe under the road is Clay Pipe, roots may be getting in to the pipe and blocking it. There are companies that come in and replace the entire sewer IN PLACE without digging up the road. The town I lived in did the entire town this way. Some of the trees didn't do so well because they lost their source of water and nutrients.

Chris Gordon We bought into the lining technology about a year ago but only on the residential side of things like 4” cast main sewer or 6” clay.. haven’t gotten into the bigger stuff like lining a street where there is super big money to be made but it’s awesome technology!

@@DrainProsIt is quite a specialized project to do the Street Mains. You have to first locate all of the house connections, then bust out the clay pipe with a specialized tool, then replace all of the laterals with 6" PVC Its pretty cool but expensive because of all of the specialized equipment you need. Like in some places you need underground boring equipment. As soon as someone sees you busy, they think you are making money and they get into it too. Where I lived, a company from Maine came down and worked with a sewer excavation contractor.

They really should BIG TIME

I understood him to mean that the city sewer runs flat so that, in addition to the faulty homeowner, caused the sludge to not drain properly. That main pipe doesn't look wide enough.

Thanks Matt! 👍

Laughed out loud when I read this 😂

Thanks Tom 👍! Have a great night

Well its simple. The judge got paid off

On every package of wet wipes i've bought it specifically says do not flush, but I don't know if its the same in other countries. Plus some people just don't care to throw them in the trash.

Stop flushing wet wipes for fucks sake

that looks like a bird

Haha 😂 strong stomach 💪

Poop tart?

Thank you Marino! 👍 Nice to hear from another drain cleaner.. I called the city on this one, usually they come right over and get it open but they had two crews stuck on problem lines so it was going to be about an hour! Went back the next day to camera, several lips in the clays (surprisingly no roots). Hope you are staying safe and busy through this virus!

Very nice! That’s what good Drian cleaners do. We never leave doubting our work. Also, thank god for sewer cameras also! Where are you guys from? Looking forward to seeing new videos- keep the content coming. I’m a jetter and camera tech so this is all I do!

We didn’t want to put to much thick sludge back into the sewer pipe before the city sewer had their line open so we used a garden hose after the video ended for a few minutes to keep the sludge in the pipe pretty thin. If the line was open I would have washed as much away as possible like you said with a garden hose to cut it!

Thanks Donna! Appreciate it 👍

MrTommyboy68 Absolutely! We definitely have same very outdated plumbing systems up by me! Would be awesome to see them require updates 👍

Well, that milkshake did bring two boys to the yard...

Why are you facepalming

I found it

alex derpy racc Ye go check out drain addict

DO NOT GET A RATTY! I stopped watching drain addict for that.

@@thyself1985 buy why tho 🤔😆

Thanks Garcansdad! Appreciate it 👍 hope you guys are staying safe across the pond!

@@DrainPros Actually I'm Stateside. I worked in England years ago. Their lock down is a bit stricter than ours. Thanks for the concern.

By only running a penitrater the plumber makes sure they will be called back out in a year. Or there was no roots in the line and no need to run a cutter. That's why it's important to always TV the line.

Thank you for the kind words bicep! I’ve been eyeing another go pro for the future to do just that.. hoping to make that happen 👍

😂 I know, would have been a great one to camera but until the city opens there side we would most likely only see the first 10-20 and then loose sludge covering the camera! 👍

Capt. Kenneth Abney it was the tampons that plugged it. Never throw those down.

Steve's how-to and auto Almost ever clog we run into has at least a baby wipe or tampon involved in it 👍

Same. Roots are a big issue on old stuff too

how the hell the maker of ' wet wipes ' won their court case(s) re: blocked sewers is beyond me...

😂 I agree! Even before I started drain cleaning there is a weird satisfying feeling you get when the clog opens and the waste water flows away!

Thanks for watching Chris! And for the kind comment 👍

💩😂

It's generally what's left after it's treated.

Duh... I was being facetious. ;-)

Always amazed at how people get the things to go down the drain.. feel like I couldn’t get it to the sewer pipe even if I tried!

Chris Gordon Agreed wish we could get a contract with the municipality to clean all the lines! Currently in our area each municipality watches over and maintains their own. We are located in New York, We had a record of jetting/camera work at this property a year ago with the same issue super sludged up from tampons/wipes/condoms and a video recording of no roots or offsets in the clay pipe. We informed the landlord of the same issue as last time and that after the city opened there side of things we could return to camera the line. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment Chris! 👍

@@DrainPros In my opinion and experience, these residential blockages are caused by the municipalities not maintaining their sewers. "Out of sight, Out of mind." That poor old lady living in that house didn't generate all of that grease. So they blame it on her and try to make her pay for your work. That problem has been there for longer than you have probably been on this earth. That cleanout beside the house was added later. It isn't part of the original plumbing for that house. When it was "new", it probably had a Little Bity House Out Back" with a 1/4 moon cut into the door and a Sears Catalog on the wall. Without seeing the location, I'll bet that there is a bathroom and kitchen right inside from that cleanout. That was the original plumbing for the home. It might have even had a septic tank and it was replaced by the town sewer. The sewer and the water service may even be in the same trench. It might have even been vented by the downspouts draining into the sewer. The Massachusetts town I lived and worked in, was always responsible for all sewers outside the foundations. Mains and Laterals. The problems were tree roots Usually where the laterals connected to the street mains. Out in the road. Whenever I had a problem like yours,, I ended putting in a 3rd world cleanout on the yard at the property line. Especially if I had to dig it up to rod it out. That was a one time thing. Never twice. I bought a piece of 10" SDR green pipe and cut off pieces of what I needed. Cut and fitted the bottom to fit over the sewer pipe in the ground like a street curb box would be. Cut out the top of the lateral as needed, cemented the 10" piece in place and fitted the top with a 12 Round electrical plastic splice box. Then, if there are nasties in the pipe, its coming from the street and NOT from the house. NOW, you can rod in both directions.

Chris Gordon That’s slick! Wish every house had a setup like that, would make our job a whole lot easier 👍

@@DrainProsObviously, they aren't doing their jobs. My Motto for years: "There's never enough time to do it right. But there's always time to do it over and fix it when it stops working."

@@DrainProsInvest in one of those sewer suck trucks that you can suck out the catch basins and you can water jet sewer lines. You will get ALL of the town work. There are more and more of them coming upon the used equipment market.

Maybe it will create a shit geyser.

😂 Lol you may have a new career ahead of you 🎶

@@DrainPros Hah... Right... I could sing in that song in the background, while you unclog drains on KZfaq...

Patrick Santini 😂

Thanks Scott! After I ended the video we hooked up the garden hose for 10 minutes to keep her sludge thinned out and test it more until the municipal could get there to open their side!

I had a Ridgid KM-1500 machine. Years ago, I lost a 15' 1" wire section in a sewer. I couldn't get it back. It must have finally been removed when they replaced the entire clay pipe sewer. Never caused any problems.

We ran a bunch of water after the video in the customer clean out to keep the sludge thin but we aren’t allowed under our insurance or by the municipality to do anything at all on the city sewer, honestly shouldn’t have even had the shovel in there but I wanted to check if it was just right there. Appreciate you watching and commenting Alan 👍

@@DrainPros why not call the city and have them come oit with a jet truck to run their lines to make sure they are flowing

I did, they had a couple emergency dog jobs they had crews on so it was going to be a 1.5/2 hours.. they called me later on that night to let me know they got it with open in easily.

😂
