  • Welcome back to another video, not every job goes exactly as you want, on a lovely wet Saturday morning we are going to go down to a local recycling centre where they've got some blocked drains for us to try and clear.
    It might be time to send in some bigger equipment on this one.

    Looking forward to the 2nd part, I'm intrigued! You went all over that place and tried many times, now I'm most curious as to what you found, what worked and to see it all finished. TY for sharing!!!

    You did great to keep up the perseverance as jobs like these can be massively frustrating. Once cleared, they need a full site survey doing and maybe some sort of catchment system for all that rubbish and debris as the amount in that system is a joke. They need that correcting ASAP

    • @Keep_itflowing

      It turns out this drain was a interceptor catchment system that had long been forgotten about, unfortunately I didntn go back on that job myself

    Solid effort trying to figure out what their drainage schematic is. Hopefully they can be vacuumed out so you can see the bottom of the manholes.

    That was a tough one but you persevered. You'd think they keep a drainage map handy but that's my logical mind and common sense at play. I'm surprised and disappointed they're not keen to get it cleared

    • @Keep_itflowing
      @Keep_itflowing  3 місяці тому

      it would be a lot easier with a map they should definitely keep one handy, I really wanted to get it clear apparently the last manhole turned out to be an interceptor but they still don't know where the outfall is

    That was one hell of a job, the level of debris in the pipes and the lack of a schematic really makeing things impossible.

    I have done drainage for 20 years. I know you couldn't unblock this one yet, but when you started jetting the first and second manhole take the rubbish out of the chamber before it goes down the mains, which I've seen you do a few times..
