We just bought a house moved in and shower didn’t drain at all couldn’t get a plumber out until Sunday that guy who came out unblocked out drain is going to be our plumber for life.

Good catch on the falling nozzle.

When the mud started coming, that looked like a familiar story. Roots.....and other crud......great job and a big pat on the back. That was tough

@@penetratorblockeddrains You , like Ollie and his "crew" are methodical and complete the job. Watching the other channels it seems like they aren't as thorough.. IMHO..

You know, after our last interaction, I realize that I forgot to give you major credit for the work involved in pulling against the jetter. We were just discussing the twisting (aiming), not the whole job. It’s impressive that you pull back against the single barrel (or any nozzle), and that’s where the water and yourself combine to do the most work, actually pulling stuff out. I’d say there, the efforts are about 50/50, water and you, but still without the water, the effort would be wasted. Credit where credit is due, your arms get stronger from the efforts you put in, but the water does more work. However, without you, the water wouldn’t be in the place it needs to be, and without your machinery, it wouldn’t be pressurized enough to do the work required. The three of you work together so well, the water, the machines, and the Gavin ;)

Awesome Videos 🤗

27:20-where is all that water going, if it's not coming outta the pipe currently

Wow

That drain is flowing backwards, when you pull the jetter out the water in the gutter flows back into the property. During rainy weather the street would drain into the property instead of the property draining to the street!!!

Great work as always gavin.❤ hope the lady gets a refund from the cowboys

What makes me wonder, is when you have the hose and jet in the storm pipe for a long while like this (Time) and nearly 50 Mtrs of hose out, and you leave the jet running while you look and listen for the end of the Nozzle, where has all that water gone? At app 20 ltrs a min (give or take) that's one hell of a lot of water not to be coming back out to the street.

Have you ever run the Jetta so far up the drain pipe that it started shooting out the top of the gutters 😊❤️🙏🤠

The way that curb water runs into the drain you'll never keep it clean. Mud, grass clippings and any other trash that comes along is going to run in.
