Who Installed This Cover? - A Hard Blockage
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- First we go to a job for a blocked toilet and we come across a cover which we can't get up without breaking it up due to the way the tarmac people have installed a new cover so we have to try figure out a way that we can get the toilet clear. Later on in this video we have another blocked manhole that's a bit of an odd one that's flooding someone's garden and then we also return to the first job to sort out that cover.
Enjoy the video.

Great skills with the man-hole cover and doing the formwork for the concrete.
Always shows clean, tidy and methodical attitudes to his drainage jobs.
Thank you, its the best way to be
nice work...the final concreting of the lid looked great
Thanks 👍
I only watch 3 drain cleaning channels because you 3 are by far the most skilled that I have found on UA-cam. I watch you, Oliver from Drain Addict, and Bruce from Drain Cleaning Australia. You are the only one I’ve seen that uses the rope trick. I wish the other 2 guys would watch your videos and learn your trick😂 Oliver has a great “trick”. He duct taped a large shark fishing hook to the end of a pole and he can retrieve lots of stuff from the bottom of pipe shafts, such as clumps of roots or foreign objects. He keeps it in his van and it comes in handy quite frequently.
I watched Oliver with his hook the other day it works perfectly, Bruce is my favourite its like Ozzy man reviews meets drainage🙂
Definitely a goal of this channel to get a follow from DrainCleaningAUSTRALIA
Agree all three do the job thoroughly and with thought, no short cuts. Personally I also like to see the comercial site work rather than just endless domestic jobs.
@@paulf2529 i try and get a mix if i do any job i film it i like to have something for everyone
That odd 450 drain into the u-bend looks like the Aussie boundary trap design with the riser removed and replaced with a manhole. Someone was experimenting with new trap designs there I think.
Its definitely been altered because the bottom is clay but with plastic risers
That Blocked Round Chamber you Struggled with is Called a Mascar Bowl
Cheers i couldn’t think what they were called 🤣
lovely job on that man hole nathan, quality repair, looks like the original was done by our irish members of the caravan club 😜. all work guaranteed for life.
Guaranteed if you can find them 🤣
exactly 👍
Can't be them, the tarmac is more than quarter inch thick.
🤗 Oooo… I like a gurgling toilet ~ similar to the older siphonic ones, the 2nd was a Windsor trap; instead of traditionally extending its “rodding-eye” to the surface, they installed a round plastic manhole on top of it and fitted the eye through the bottom hole of the manhole “sealing it”. when the “trap” got blocked ~ the manhole functioned as a holding/septic tank for the sewage = quite ingenious I think. All you needed to do is pour “buckets” of water into it to re-liquefy the thick sewage to go down the un-blocked trap 😉. Looks like the 1st manhole cover had been bodged by a cowboy builder 😠, who only cared about sealing it to stop the sewage/drain smell
Definitely needed lots of water, i think they did it so they didn’t have to touch the original cover just lazy not there problem to get up in the
Again, the Magic Rope Trick for the WIN!!! Great job on replacing the cover. Thanks for posting and sharing.
Rope trick never fails, thank you
Great job, the manhole cover looks great too, good luck with your channel 🫶
Thanks you 🙂
Great quality work on the cover. Both jobs were good!
Thank you 🙂
Great work on that cover replacement
Thanks!
Great job on the repair of the manhole, shows great skill 🍻🇦🇺
Thank you 🙂
Love it Nathan! That work on replacing the manhole is sweet. Really nice job - so great to see such pride in work for customers 😍🥹
Thank you always try to do the best job i can
Watching from Bangor Maine. Very educational! Thanks for the great content to watch!
Thank you and Thanks for watching!
Great video,nice neat job on that manhole repair.😎👍👍
Thanks 👍
Nice job on the cover.
Thanks a lot!
Nice work on the cover. Maybe get your boss to acquire a rotary hammer and move things along easier.
Also, I believe the rope trick has been used enough, it’s no longer a trick. Needs a ‘fancy’ technical term. I’ll suggest “tethered guidance method” 😂
Cheers we have one but tbh i had plenty of time to do the job, i like that name 🤣
@@Keep_itflowing Fair enough. Trade skills are perishable, and should be flexed once in a while
definitely
Would have liked to have seen concrete and woodwork around manhole.😀
tbh I didn't think people would be interested to much so I didn't film it all, I really need to learn to just film everything 😂
In that chamber, after you got it emptied, I would have used the plunger to stop up the pipe in the bottom, let the water run and fill the chamber with water then pull the plunger, large amounts of water will help push things down to the main.
If the Windsor trap was still blocked = that would have risked the sewage back-flowing into the drainage system of the house 🫢
@@samuelfellows6923 it was already full when he started, so I doubt filling it with water would hurt.
It had been overflowing for a while i think outside anyway
Quality job on the cover replacement, I would be happy with that on my own sites and I'm quite fussy!
thank you
Definitely need wellys on that second one. That ground was saturated.
that's why I stayed standing uphill from it 😂 my boots are fairly waterproof
Good job on the cover
Cheers
Very tidy work 😊
Thank you
Sweetcorn and tampons! Don’t these people ever read the packet where is says “do not flush”
No they dont 🤣
Awesome job!
Thanks!
The lady of the the house needs to not flush the little white mice
🤣
2 tough jobs. But you did it !!!
👍🏻
Almost to 5K!!!
🎉
Top job 💪
Loving the videos
almost at 5k ❤
🎉
Great Video well explained....Good work!!
Thank you!
Look at the state of that leader hose! Get a new one mate, that’s going to injure someone without notice and possibly fatal ! Look after yourself and others around you, legal obligation remember. Pehaps some eye and ear protection and and some water against silicosis wouldn’t go a miss too? You don’t sound that old mate, you’ve got a young family, that and if HSE saw this, they’d have your pants down, is it worth it?
That hose has been replaced now don’t worry
@@Keep_itflowing good man! I’m in the industry too and we’ve got to look out for each other! Go steady and think of future you when doing anything
Tbh that leader hasn’t been used much lately and think the rubbers gone brittle on it while in the van had to use it a few times lately and its just stripped it terrible
Mate! If you think that's a 6 inch rod, your girlfriend's been spoilt.
🤣
