    Great video. Especially bending the first few inches to allow the snake to go DOWN instead of straight across. Thank you

    I’m a renter, but I don’t like bugging my landlord… and I wanna learn to do this myself. Thanks for the video 👌🏻. I’m gonna go buy those tools tomorrow. My clog is somewhere behind the wall. I tried a cheap, 2-3 foot hand snake, but I couldn’t reach the clog. We’ll see 🤷‍♂️

      Hey Cory. Good luck. Let me know how it goes. Remember don't let any slack on the cable. It will tangle . Keep it 6 inches or les from drain. Remember to bend it a bit so it goes down. Use a flash light.

      @alexthehandyman3494  Рік тому +1

      Hello Ted. Is always better to apply Teflon paste or and tape. It still had traces of the paste and since is a low pressure drain, the chances of leaking are slim. If it was supply water... yes. always!! Thank you so much Ted. See you around1

      Did you make sure it went down. Did you see it physically, If it went up then you went through the vent. It needs to go down. Let me know.

      @@alenbazarov3039 Maybe you just need a longer snake. You can rent one from Home Depot . Get a 5/16 or 3/8 50 or 70 ft.long. Is this the kitchen drain?
      How far from the main? Usually the main is by where a toilet is? If this is a kitchen, this is a branch and eventually has to reach the main. Keep me posted. One more thing, Is this pipe 1 1/2 to 2 inch? If is bigger the snake might coil and not go all the distance.
