So Many roots! - Impossible Gully
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 вер 2024
- In this video the most interesting bit is going to be part three we've got a gully to clear it's possibly the worst Gully I've ever had to clear, it's a road Gully on a trading estate and it is full from top to bottom of Silt and roots. I ended up with three hours worth of footage so I've edited it down for this video and then tomorrow I'm going to release another video it's an hour long and is and extended version of the gully empty.
But first we're going to start off with a smaller Gully in a domestic customer's house in his back garden and he was very happy to find out he didn't have a collapsed pipe under his gravel. Enjoy
Keep an eye out for the extended version tomorrow :)

I'm in the US and I love how you take care of your customers, if I was younger I would do it the same way keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Wow! Never seen such bad roots!! Well done Nathan and the tanker driver!
Thank you
Omg that last one was crazy! Great job on your part 👏👏👏can’t wait for longer version 😮
I know, longer version out today at 1pm
You did a great job getting all those roots out of that storm water gully.
Thank you
That was a lot of grease on the first one. I had to stop counting how many pieces. Great job on the roots. I can believe that took a while.
There were definitely to many to count, thank you
needed s reciprocating saw there! and a bigger shovel lol. seen it where they attached a winch on and pulled it out in one lump!
that would be handy 👍
Those roots were crazy!🤪 Oliver has a tool called a Gerni that cuts through roots. Something like that is great for huge, strong roots. You’ve probably seen it. It’s my favorite….I love when he uses the Gerni.
Great video👍 I’m a bit behind in watching because I’m working so much. Going to catch up on all videos 😊
It would be very handy to have one, same im really behind on all the channels i watch but managed to catch up a bit tonight as iv ran out of content to edit
The Gerni's a lance & I believe he does have one, at least all the Australian/Canadian Jetter's do.
But after seeing him labour away with the little shovel & pry bar I guess he might not ;)
Aha they do have lances just not a cutting nozzle for them
My God What A Horrible Job
👍
A pair of cordless secateurs would have made mincemeat out of them roots,as bad as they were 👍 great video again mate
good idea, Thanks 👍
In the US. You needed some "loppers" for the roots instead of that saw. Not sure what you call them there, but they would've helped. Great video.
They would have been perfect tbh
My god those roots were something else never seen so bad well done guys
Thanks
Just wanted to say YO!!! Shout out from Parma, Ohio.....USA. Keep rockin'
Hey, thanks!
Those roots were huge, invest in a root saw, that wood saw you had is too bendy, good video .
it would definitely be a handy thing to have
I can't wait for the extended version
Out tomorrow not long to wait 🙂
Charge by the hour scraping out makes sense 👍
👍
i bet you after 30 minutes of dealing with those roots your thoughts were along the lines of being utterly sick of it and not being paid enough for your patience being tested in this way.
on the plus side I was thinking this will make a great video
I agree with one of the other comments, a reciprocating saw would have made your life easier and the blades are cheap.
👍🏻
Good job
Thanks
That gully was incredible!
For the urinal traps, you might find it worth buying a stainless steel bottle brush, you can get these in 2" diameter cheaply from ebay amazon etc. I rekon this would speed up removing the scale, if you put it inside a bag whilst you turned the brush, it wouldn't flick bits everywhere.
Its easily the worst one iv done for a long time . That is a brilliant idea i will look into it
I was just about to suggest the same thing. Why they install waterless ones is beyond me, They must stink too 🤢
I can confirm they do 😂 the magic chemicals don't work as well as they say when they sell you the idea of saving water.
@@Keep_itflowing - Stale urine in the bottom of a toilet that holds water is bad enough. This is not an area where they should be trying to save water. Just have a flush system like a toilet.
I wouldn't recommend it
That ring was creepy.
I think its still in the tray on the back of the truck 🤣
people need to learn Especially for Kitchen drains .. run your hot water as hot as possible for 2-3 mins AFTER you finish doing the washing up Ect that will spread the Grease/oil out a lot and prevent Huge globs from forming...
hot water definitely does a lot of good for grease
I pour a kettle of boiling water down my drain. My dishwasher eco programme is 50°C but I do a hotter cycles at least once a month
This is definitely worth doing helps soften any solids
@@Keep_itflowing - I don't use animal fat or oils that become solid when cold so that helps
I bet that helps a lot
a cordlees sawzall would be perfect for that much faster
Definitely
Hi, you really need to buy a cordless saw it would have been so much easier and quicker
it would come in handy
Random question. When did a crow bar become a jemmy?
No idea 🤣
Why don’t the cleaners put descale removal over night 😅
Even a bucket of hot water Wouldhelp. although possibly not for the roots
🤣
For the roots; Gardenshears?
thats not a bad idea
comment to support the channel
Thanks for your comment
Hi get a rabbiting bar will get roots out in no time get one with a long handle i used it on highway drains live safer
thats a good idea
i think you need a 300bar pressurewasher the remove the roots
My jetter in my van will do 275 bar
@@Keep_itflowing normalie with 300 bar you can cut off roots
And get soaking wet 😂
Roots or has BT been installing wires in the wrong place?
😂 it wouldn't surprise me tbh
Why in Gods name would anyone put a dry urinal in??
I know awful isn't it
Those were some bad roots. Definitely getting a lance gun with turbo nozzle would destroy those roots. How many psi does your jetter run at
My jetter will do 4000 psi
@@Keep_itflowing a lance gun with turbo forward shoot nozzle would certainly cut roots easily
👍
🤢 Urinal wastes are arguably next to FOG in terms of vileness. Why anyone thinks firstly waterless Urinals are a good idea, and secondly, fits bottle traps to them, (or any Urinal for that matter), is beyond me...
I totaly agree with you
👍
Hi bro
hey
