      It’s like being on a job with a couple of friends doing hard and satisfying work. So much positive energy. Reminds me of remodeling my house with my father in law. At the end of the day you’ve told stories, learned something, and have something to show for it that makes life a little better. (Sorry for the sermon!)

      It still highlights the gas operatives who broke and removed a section of live sewer rather then relay there pipe correctly and not repair the damage,great job by you just a big justified bill for someone,gas,insurance or home owner.

  • @will_doherty
    @will_doherty 3 роки тому +1

    Though it didn't appear to be as obvious later in the video, some of the earlier footage made it appear that the gas board when they fitted the gas pipe chopped the top out of the soil pipe to allow the gas pipe to pass through. Dirty trick if that was the case... I also thought you were very brave using a disk cutter where you knew there was a gas pipe beneath! I've seen all manner of incorrect and altered installations, where utilities/sevices are much shallower than the law/regulations require that they should be - for example I know of contractors laying fibre ducting in a pavement who hit an 11kV cable with a pneumatic drill, at 3 inches deep. The utility co just said that the cable had been laid much deeper, as per regs, but that subsequent works had made it very shallow. An additional problem with plastic pipes is that you can't detect them before you dig...

    one little point Jem. you say about let the saw do the work then stand with your foot in front of the blade, they do skip if the hit something hard and your boot wont stop it other than that nice job keep them coming

    A quick idea, when you were flushing the pipe if you had a piece of guttering between the pipes so that all the effluent doesn’t puddle up in the hole
