    You have to wonder who was the numpty that designed the access points so they are under the building, obviously had no thought for anyone who'd have to do maintenance, you'd think that on a house costing AUD$ 5,000,000 (£2,629,280) a bit more thought would have been put into keeping the utilities access easy!
    Well fought Gavin!!!👍👍👍👍👍

      I suspect your head is caught on a backflow valve. We had one installed in a basement line and it overflowed when we had company. Jetting plumber came out and nuked it. No more problems.

      Get a sharkhook mounted to an extendable boat hook so you can pull the hose up the I/O and take it off. _Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!_

    I, for one would love to see you have another channel that does actual plumbing stuff. Like new water pipes, new sewer pipes. Anything that shows real plumbing, not just drain clearing.
    As much as drain clearing is nice, I want to see plumbing, real plumbing.

    I got stuck in a pool deck drain line last week. New project with sand in the line. They wanted me to jet to remove the sand. The deck was all pavers so we figured the sand was just washed in from the installation of the pavers. Of course it was a broken pipe and I went out of it by about 6-8 feet. When water started bubbling up from the pavers, I knew I was screwed. The superintendent on the job asked about abandoning the hose and the head. When I told him that, beside the pipe still being completely clogged with sand and still broken, the cost was close to $2000 between the nozzle and the hose he decided it would be okay to dig it up.
    Two things I learned that day, Reaper nozzles are excellent at tunneling in sand and not everyone thinks the way I do.

    You getting stuck is reminding me of the last drain I had to snake. Thing had just released the water and I was hoping to work it on it's way back to make sure there weren't any stragglers hanging out. Snake decided to bind up in the drain and twist to a point where it bent the wire. I got it out and straightened out but ooofta that was annoying.

    I know that time is money, and using the big nozzle to get the job done faster is the best option 99% of the time. This was that 1% time. Since I only do this for family/friends, time is not a problem, so I always start with the basic cheap/small nozzle. It's much less likely to get stuck, it usually takes care of the problem, or at least opens the clog so that it can drain and I can see what's going on with the camera, then if needed, put the bigger nozzle in. What size drains are those, they look to be at least 4 inch? Here in the US, we use 3-inch, it used to be 4-inch years ago, but they found out 4-inch clogs a lot more than 3-inches, so some of the nozzles you use wouldn't fit in our drains.

    Any access point under a structure of any kind is from a braindead builder....bring a point to surface anywhere, eve if its downstream, but anywhere outside of the structure. On the flip side, Gavin I know in the back of your mind when you were losing pull back control you were thinking the possibility of getting stuck was high...been there and did not get the T-Shirt. We all push our luck. I now am the guy that when I lose control under pressure I pull back and regroup. You know better then I that once that control is lost, you are in trouble.
