Every time I do some drain work I tip my hat to the guys that had to do the same work with cast iron and lead instead of PVC and glue.
Embidd our motto was pvc is for toys
Embidd still have my cast iron tools , no cut sniff and glue for me just lead and oakuum lol
I’d say ya got yer money’s worth as for me I’d replace it all with abs nice tight, clean job
Plummer = Shit runs down hill and Pay Day is on Friday. LOL
LOL, good one !
Brian, s'ok if you wear gloves ;)
How much did you charge for this job labor only?
Where's that accent from? Im from ny and never heard a crazy one like that. Backwoods of Massachusetts, maybe?
Southern Mass.
Your in business to make money , no way around charging for your work , its nice of you to help people that don't have much money ........ That can happen to any of us , at anytime .... A sickness can wipe anyone out , money or not .. Great Repair .....
your right any one of us could get sick at any time
Ok steve beautiful job! I'm having the same problem but its closest to the floor and the water is coming out black. I guess its tbe rusted pipe. I'm a woman never did this before but i will give it a try this weekend. Please pray for me i really think i can do it. I'm determined to do it not saying your job is easy because its not. But I'm also short on money and it has to work.
LOL @ 4:38 "so you wanna be a plumber huh?"
You made a really good job out of a bad one! The first time I've ever heard you say you don't have the parts on the van also!
No Taj Mahal mama
Nice work. I have the same problem with my old cast iton drain pipes.
Question. How do you vent a tub drain?
When using a p-trap, what side goes on the fixture end.
Thank you . Thank you. Thank you.

“I know your disabled but I gotta get paid too!” Lol Steve I been watching you about 3 years now and one of your BEST qualities is that your so straight forward! God bless you and miss molly!
A lot of contemporary American plumbers don't caulk cast iron joints. For being something I do often, its easy to admire the patience and strength it must have taken to pipe in an entire house, packed and poured. Its crazy.
funny how some cast rots out faster than others. i've been in houses, very old houses, where the old cast trunk looked brand new and other that looked worse than what you just dealt with. we use a cast iron ratchet snapper. has a thick chain with a bunch of cutting wheels that you wrap around the pipe and a long handle to work back and forth. makes a clean cut. good video Steve.
i use snapper/ratchet cutters at times when working with cast iron depends on job and area to cut grinder works good to if the cut is critacle
Nice to have a plumbing video back after all the a/c jobs. Like how you tackled this drain job. You're quick at doing it also.
yes a.c is about over will be switching over ,more plumbing videos coming for sure
What’s so hard about that everything is easy to get to ,try being an auto mechanic and see what problems you get into.
I have to laugh at some people's stupidity. I have actually heard people say you don't have to Prime new PVC and PVC fittings to glue them together that is incorrect because even though they havent been stored outside or anything they do catch dust and stuff from being handled and stored and because of that should be cleaned. myself when I'm working with PVC I prefer to use the colored primer so I know I Primed all my joints before gluing them together.
Anyone can do plumbing nowadays Flippin Not !!!
excellent work steve lav
thanks
Steve, why did you assume that since the guy was disabled he did not have any money? Maybe, say something like "due to your current situation, can you afford this repair right now". If you would of said what you said to me about "not getting paid" since he is disabled and out of work - I would have sent you packing and said "don't let the door hit in you the ass on the way out". I own my own biz and understand what goes on about getting paid and all but would have never said that to a potential customer. Anyway, to each his own. I still love your videos.
i worked for him before and had a hard time getting paid so before you judge me ,,,,,,,know the facts .
Very well said Chase..
I thought that was the best part of the video. lol Very straight forward no beating around the bush.
What Steve said. Know you're facts first before you judge. If Steve had trouble getting paid in the past from this customer, he deserves commendation for goin' back in the first place.
I don’t blame him for saying that. It’s hard to get some people to pay. I like the honest and up front approach. If I do the job I want to be paid.
Great job Steve! I like the way you do the layout on the plastic, I try to mimic your work, it ain't easy brother! I don't want to be a plumber when I grow up!
I have a question. What happens if a Customer does not pay? Maybe small claims court? Just wondering. Thanks.
gets sent to a debt collector generally for small payments bigger ones the master plumber will put a lien on the houss
I collect up front, period.
Steve,looks like a lot cast iron leaking.well it looks like Steve, is working again MAMA !!! good luck u all!!!!she sure a leaker.
Pretty smooth on you editing Steve! Keep up the good work.
i try my best
Looking good now
came together nicely
Next time you make a video try not skipping sections of how you're doing certain things. This is how its done, tada ! This is when you blink and its magically done. Now, connect to that. Come on man, some people have no clue and might be depending on your video to help them.
A magician never shows his secrets. What I've always loved about the trades. you'll never be able to just watch a video and learn exactly how to do something. You need to be there and do it to learn to do it
He only cut out him cutting the cast iron. If you can't figure that out on your own.... move on
If you are depending on this one video to tell you how to replace your plumbing you should call a pro.
It isn't a DIY tutorial channel its a guy working showing his day, sometimes the job is hard and he has no time to film.
were a purple primer state ..interesting.. for sch 80
Nothing worse than a customer who wants to talk you're ear off.
ahhhh, it's an old guy, let him be......... he's lonely.
flatjawspud hey raj it’s me Eddie lol
Pandkee Chang he’s not lonely he’s Jewish
Steve, question for you... do you find your 'speak it as it is and banter back and forth' attitude helps relax the customer as well as your work environment?
My boss/partner (he pays me but listens to me) has the same kind of attitude... I trained in a big organization so I am more 'subservient'... it seems not to work in the private sector as people try to take the pis...err take advantage
he paid me .i quoted him a price
I'll chime in on this one too...I'm a Licensed Electrician here in Jersey and yes...Talking with customers relaxes them and lightens the air.
I see a lit of props for the video but when you glue the fittings together you're supposed rotate them to ensure proper spread of the glue, it makes for an air tight bond, just saying.
@Samuel Lim Okay rookie, the last piece gets glued on both sides and enters each fitting then rotate because both ends are lubed at that point.
I rarely get customer participation!...will usually cost more if they are sloths...:-D
Steve I work down South and rarely come across cast iron so my question is why the clamps with adaptors instead of just clamping the pvc pipe to the cast iron pipe. Is there a size difference. I swear when I have worked with cast that I never had to use adaptors. Anyways. Love your videos and you do great work.
3 family members died from Lipitor; this is the first I've heard. There are many side affects but fatalities are rare. A true case of noncompliance as we call it in health care.
not true how true that was .i did not say it
Would it have been better to use a wye & st 45 & end clean out instead of a sweep?
Love the dog
Plug in the Christmas lights Mama
what's the p-trap serve all they way down there?
I once lived in an apartment that one day someone in the unit next to us flushed their toilet and suddenly on our side sewage started backing up into some pipe in a kitchen closet that had been capped off, blew the cap right off. Hair, toilet paper, shit, everything suddenly in our kitchen.
A few hours later after a plumber had inspected the problem he found that the waste pipes going from the apartment to the road was all cast iron. He showed me using a snake with a little camera on the end of it the pipe was all filled with these small divots and all kinds of gunk had got stuck in these divots until it eventually caused a major blockage. The whole back yard had to be dug up to get rid of this big ol' pipe.
Did you eat it
Well there was some pasta in there, I had thought about it.
I'm fairly confident I have the same shirt he has on in this video. Wearing the old Walmart special. 😂
why do you wear gloves?
Steve
Why do you wear gloves
Lol
Next level
😇❤️️🐬😇
Just curious, see it a lot in older homes. Why did the original plumbers use 4" closet flange, short piece of 4" cast going into 4" reducing 90, then dumping into 3" cast? Was it because those old toilets use a lot of water when flushed? New construction, I would always use 3" going into 3" or 3" going into 4" but never 4" into 3".
When i was doing residential 4"x3" closet bends was the norm. Always questioned it code-wise, but its perfect installing wise. Just cut the 4" flush with the floor, prime and glue flange inside the pipe. Works like a charm
PanamaSabroso I still would like to know why it was very common back in the 50's when cast iron was the norm
its easier to have the toilet flange glue to the inside of the 4 inch 90 because if the flange ever cracks in the future all u hafta do to change it is smash up the flange but a couple of slits in the remaining pipe n chip it out...
Nice work - this is how I do it, thanks to you. NEXT LEVEL!!!
Good job Steve those clamps solve a lot of problems good video
Fantastic work Steve
next level
You gave it the ole' gundy for sure
it needed it
That was some ratty ass piping in there ! Nice repair.
it was bad for sure leaking everywere
Nice job steve ! what are those screw on fittings on the plastic pipe at 15:35? thanks !!
1 1 /2 pvc desanco= sch 40 pvc to compression /tubular
Thanks steve!! Love your video's and the baby dog ;)!
Nice video
It ain't no tajmahal mama......BWHAAA
Great job. Guess the customer was tryna get the old, " I'm disabled ", discount. Lol
I meant pvc pipe. damn auto correct
Saw a 86 Porsche 944 on the interstate
1:50 - snuck an electrical wire in alongside the drain pipe.
Using the stack chase is a great way to run new home runs upstairs when rewiring!
did u get pay? did the check bounced
no more leaks!!great work!!
she is tight now
It must have been a new customer to be talking about getting paid before the job even starts.i completely understand...most plumbers are leery of new customers,my theory is when you find a good plumber who is reasonable and he is there when you need him...you marry him. Jus kiddin..but you know what I mean.
How old is that house?
Steve , great job thanks for share your knowledge .why do you use gloves.MAMA 🤣👍
When i purchased my latest home 2nd owner built early 60's my age lol..flippen original owner finished off basement had full bath shower no lift pump 2" galv running across the floor dumping into open floor drain in mechanical room WTF mamma
northerners so lucky with these crawl spaces for undergrounds..we gotta jackhammer concrete for 2 days just to remodel a bathroom
I have that same cast iron mess in my basement. The one thing that was replaced was the vertical portion of the stack with a shiny black plastic pipe and clamps. The rest is older than the hills.
You turned some ugly rotten pipe into a work of art Steve. Nice looking job. That old pipe was nasty!
We still do this in Philly, Steven. Any underground drainage pipe has to be cast iron, and caulked.
How to use female and male adapters PVC to metal pipe elbows.
.Awesome video. Thanks a lot.
This stuff no joke for beginners just pay attention with time yu will be fine
They sell that system pre-fab'd at Harbor Freight for $11
I use y's on cleanouts. I'm not a fan of ty's. I find the grinder a lot easier than the snap cutter also.
And then there was that lead trap eaten through. Another lead reduction job.
Sawzall and carbide blade will go through 4" cast in about 45 sec...
Drain cleaner may have rotted the tub and sink drain pipes?
Good deal, Steven. You're a man with a plan. Baby the dog.
Great video. it should have been all pictures. cast iron rusts to quickly
Steve sweating to death probably 90 degrees in there next level.
i wonder how much this one cost. I can estimate the material cost
Nice!
nice job steve
thanks
People call it gluing pipe but that's not true. What you are actually doing is a process called solvent welding. The "glue" has no adhesives in it, it is actually very finely ground PVC resin suspended in very strong solvents, like acetone, MEK, and tetra hydra furen. If they put CPVC resin in too then you can use it for both. The cleaner/primer is just solvents that take any oil/grease off and etches the plastic. It's also used to prep pipe before pianting.
its a good tight joint if done right .
Neat job, next level mama
thanks
All the MC Donald’s you can eat! Lmao 😂
Good thing you don’t have to dig underground to get to these pipes
wow that's some high ass cholesterol, nice job steve
