Hi, Thats why i use liquid washing powder..Dont want my pipes clogging up like that, wow. Its great to hear people that want to know or give their opinions on the drains..Lovely drive Thank you..Stay Safe from Tasmania ❤️🙏👍🤗
I really feel sorry for so many of these people, especially when the basement has a nice floor like this one. It'll never be the same again. But, well done on clearing the mega soap scum blockage out of that one Donald. And thanks again for the trip around the neighbourhood, nice weather and looks a nice area.
Looks like Junior is going to have his hands full cleaning up his bachelor pad in Mom's basement. He's going to need more than a vacuum to clean up that mess. He'll have that trap clogged up in no time flat with the amount of soap needed to decontaminate the area. 🤣🤣
Might be a combination of hard water and too much powdered laundry detergent like: Foca; Ariel; Roma. A good habit would be cleaning the house side of the trap every month,
Donald, when you said "we're back in business", I thought, yeah so they can do their business, without a crap explosion! LOL Beautiful drive at the end.
The Gull 's in the Basement Block. Open the Clearing Hole, beginning the Clear Great Fatt and Calcium make the Block. Clear the Drain. Good Work. Then Drive You through a Garden City. Thanks for this Video.
I think this has been your easiest job so far. No lugging the Beast around; no gushers; only scraping the inside of the house trap. Don’t you wish ALL your jobs were like this? Keep up the goi
The last person couldn't bring in a big machine due to the lack of clearance and used a flush bag in all of the drains to clear the last clog and most likely just popped a small hole big enough that the water went down for the moment 😳 😕 🤦♂️
4:34 Jump-scare soap scum! But seriously, these videos have shown me repeated cases of soap scum causing an issue, weirdly not one I've personally dealt with. Generally just roots.
Great unblock Donald. These basement apartments are not ideal to live in when a plumbing blockage occurs. Not good for the laminate floor to get sewer soaked.
Pretty much boils down to the same thing, but grease has a more orangey color and pungent smell to it, as to soap scum which is more white colored without a scent.
Does anyone know what's the purpose of that trap, and do you need them? Is this an old technology that was needed at the time? Sinks, tubs, and toilets have their own traps, and here in NJ, we don't have them.
@kikibellebubba1248 There's several purposes for that bend in that pipe right there. Just go to Google and type in "P trap purposes"...it'll explain everything for you, okay? You're welcome!

A CI no hub house fits better than trying to make one out of PVC fittings and needing short pieces of PVC pipe on the house and street side of the trap.
@@NYDRAINS For this installation there was not a lot of room for a PVC house trap but it would work in most installations and is a lot cheaper than a no hub CI house trap too.
That's extremely heavy buildup of soap scum, is this from using powder washing detergent? I would think liquid soaps and detergents wouldn't do this as bad, but I don't know.
Das ist keine „Seife“ No Soap Das ist Fett… Frittenfett und Öle. Die im kalten Wasser erstarren. Öle und Fette, die den Aggregatzustand im kalten Wasser von flüssig zu fest wechselnden sich an den Leitungen ablagern. Die Hausfrau sollte ihre Essensreste nicht im Abwasser entsorgen. 😮
Man, first a dramatic episode of DA, then an awesome new video from NYD? This week is awesome. It looks like the buildup was caused by slight back pitch where plastic meets cast iron before the trap. Nice work!
Nice work.
Thanks for posting!

Some big boulders coming out of the sewage pipe. Thank you for another great video.
Thanks again for watching Mario 😉👍
That hard 90 elbow after the trap is hilarious. Still, it drains better than some we’ve seen! Nice work Donald.
That had to be one deep city sewer! 😆 Thanks Fire 👍

👋 Cheryle, glad you enjoyed 😉👍🙏
Kein Weichspüler und kein Fett..
Soap manufacturers are not complaining, use more please!. Modern powders, and liquids are so more efficient now.
Nicely done Donald.
it's not just the soap though. New York, all of the state, has some fairly hard water. The combo of the 2 is what makes it really bad
Lol, thanks John 👍

No Soap This is Öl
The poop river flows! Nice job Donald, thanks for the video man.
Glad you enjoyed it Frank👍
Boy that was a lot of soap! Thanks again Donald 👍
@vince131s
That wasn't grease, that was chunks of soap scum, lol!
You got it Ken 👍
Wow! That was a huge buildup! Great job again Donald!

A whole lotta soap scum rocks. Awesome job Don.
Thanks again Horace 👍
Excellent walk off tune at the end

Hahahaha calcium in the sewer line 😂Nice job Donald ❤
Lol, thanks Nebojsa 😉👍
You drive through some nice neighborhoods. 😊
Sometimes, yes 😉👍
Good morning Donald great job that was a lot of soap scum but as usual you got it flowing like a river 👍
Good morning Deborah 🙏 FLAR 😉👍
As always, you got it!! 🤙

Holy soap scum, Batman! Seems to me it’d been longer than two years for that much build up. Thanks!
You got it right, the last time this drain was cleaned was long ago! 😂
Donald, when you said "we're back in business", I thought, yeah so they can do their business, without a crap explosion! LOL Beautiful drive at the end.

Thanks for watching Dorit 😉👍
Good to see you are able to carry on after all that drama with Ratty! 👍❤️🐀🇦🇺
Tell me about it! My heart skipped a beat a few times! 😢
That went easier just old soap scum nothing else blocking it then, good job as usual Donald nice one ,in the rich area again by the look's of it..
Thanks again Peter, it was one of the nicer ones 😉👍
These older systems need a sink full of hot water (once a week?) to get them going again!
Sadly no. Once soap scum dries, it must be removed by tool or hand.
Don't think that would make a dent.
That was a whole mess of soap scum. Can't forget the famous gusher of POOPOO!
Lol 😉👍
This man had balls made of steel and with his aura level being 999999999999999 level
Well done Don! Another great unblock! Lovely scenery driving too. 😁👍
Thanks again Laura, glad you enjoyed 😉👍
Dang that's a lot of soap 🧼 😳 scum! Excellent job clearing the clog! 👏 👏
Thanks AL 👍
@vince131s
That wasn't grease, that was chunks of soap scum, lol!
At least the builder didn't screw you with the placement of the trap, which seems is often the case🤨.
😉👍
Another basement bogline blockage. This time the sewer access is in his bedroom😮
🤢
That was Manteca !
😉👍
I think this has been your easiest job so far. No lugging the Beast around; no gushers; only scraping the inside of the house trap. Don’t you wish ALL your jobs were like this? Keep up the goi
Keep up the good work, and keep the videos coming!!!
I sure do! Thanks 😉👍
What builds up soapscum to that level where it becomes a mass big enough to block pipes? Is it certain cleaning products used, or what?
The last person couldn't bring in a big machine due to the lack of clearance and used a flush bag in all of the drains to clear the last clog and most likely just popped a small hole big enough that the water went down for the moment 😳 😕 🤦♂️
WOW, at the chunks of soap scum you're pulling out of there, gee whizzzz!!! 😲😳
It's was amazing Bev!
Good job sir
Thanks Gary 👍
When you ask Wikipedia what soap scum is there will part of this post. Thanks Donald
😆 thanks Jerry 👍
Soap scum, the fat that clogs plumbing 😮

Is there anything that could desolve soap scum? Excellent job as always👍 I'm always learn something new all the time. Blessings to you and yours 🗽🍎🐀🌽🧤
Not really, just regular maintenance should do the trick Kimberly, thanks again for your continuous support 🙏👍
That’s some soap powder they’re using there, could build a house from it
Lol
Great unblock Donald. These basement apartments are not ideal to live in when a plumbing blockage occurs. Not good for the laminate floor to get sewer soaked.
good job don but long drive
Thanks Paul 😉👍
01:22. The sleeping monster.

Think I'd change washing detergent folks, and the floors will have to be replaced.

Grease is the word
Pretty much boils down to the same thing, but grease has a more orangey color and pungent smell to it, as to soap scum which is more white colored without a scent.
What kind of soap is he using that causes this? Then we can avoid busting it😊 thanks Donald 🥰🙏
Powdered soap usually builds up faster than liquid Laurel 😉👍

Does anyone know what's the purpose of that trap, and do you need them? Is this an old technology that was needed at the time? Sinks, tubs, and toilets have their own traps, and here in NJ, we don't have them.
The trap is Code in NY it prevents gas and bugs/rodents from coming back into the house, although each drain, sink, etc. has their own as well.
Sorry I haven’t been here Donald I’m in the hospital I’m sick
Get well. Be blessed.
hope u get better
I hope you get better soon 🙏
@@kenthorsen4558 thank you I have open surgery

Easy fix to remove that trap and just add a straight piece

Why would they put PVC on both ends but leave the original trap? Is it code that the trap cannot be pvc?
A CI no hub house fits better than trying to make one out of PVC fittings and needing short pieces of PVC pipe on the house and street side of the trap.
I've seen PVC traps in the past, so I doubt it
@@NYDRAINS For this installation there was not a lot of room for a PVC house trap but it would work in most installations and is a lot cheaper than a no hub CI house trap too.
@briancrandall1601 👍
Instead of talking to you he should have been moving things out of your way to give you access.
Oh he did try, but hardly mad a difference 🤷♂️
Voted? 😉

Are you sure it wasn’t calcium? ;-)

using soap powder and cold water will do that.
