- We jetted so much sludge out of the pipe it clogged the city sewer!!
In this video we hydro scrub out from an outside clean out approx 70 feet to the city sewer with 4000 PSI of water and penetration nozzle to blow heavy sludge build up that was clogging line. After several runs we pull the city sewer man hole lid to find the sludge has enter the city pipe and clogged it off. We then remove the jetter hose to find a large wad of tampons and a spring stuck on the jetter nozzle. The sludge should never get that bad if you're using the sewer correctly!

Man, I thought he was going to at least spray it back in the hole. She going to be pissed, shit everywhere 😂🤣

Poor old lady got shitcken noodle soup all in her backyard. Only givin 2 sense for future reference since u asked. Love ur vids keep up the work
ew
Best advice I can give you--
Life is too short for junk flashlights
Word.
its the LED light in the camera they flash at high speeds.
Here's a tip that we used to do.
Put all the crap excluding the wipes back down the drain it came out of an jet it back through.
Can make for a better clean up 👍
Definitely would have done that on most jobs, on this one didn’t want to add more sludge back in with the city sewer not open 👍
I’ve always wondered what was underneath manhole covers, well now I know. Good vid 👍
Some are definitely nicer than others! A lot of creepy crawly bugs 😂
Lol.. come work with us for a day... I work for a municipal wastewater company...
Brian Lungociu You ever thought of doing some videos?
I’m sure that many people would enjoy them!
@@DrainPros That's what a 2,500+ PSI Pressure Washer is for...
Either that or a Napalm Flamethrower...
Ya it's the city fault that you pushed your problem to there drain not professional
I LIke how in the U.K they sanitize everything after every clean out.
Mother: Now I know where the oatmeal has been going...
Father: That isn't oatmeal...
Dixie May haha 😂 👍
You guys need to just keep that jetter on and watch it flow out the pipe in the manhole. Half the problems of drains clogging is simply not enough water and too many solids. Flush often.
@R. Ive just keep flushing. My 2 hour showers are hell on the bill but never a clog!
@@brandoncaldwell95 lmao i installed jet showers & jet flush
Drain addict: let's do it boys let's do it
Ratty: Corn
Caleb Manuel [Official] 😂 Thanks for watching Caleb 🌽
Drain addict makes this guy look like an amateur!
Cassandra Todhunter Thanks for watching Cassandra 👍
You must not have been listening when Ratty told you that no one human could eat that much corn. That it was coming from all of the shippy sewers that have been improperly installed and don't drain worth a good health bowel movement
@@cassandratodhunter144 I keep looking for Ratty and the corn
Ralphie may is doing drains now. He didn't die. Who agrees?
This is the first Drain Pros vid I have seen & it set in motion my addiction. lol
Strobing the flashlight intimidates the sludge
Haha will have to try it on the next one to confirm 😂.. stupid thing has to many features!
The led flashlights appear to strobe on some cameras. Its due to the wavelength.

@@Joshuahall228 what he said.
Where do you get your water when you’re jetting? Do you pull water from the clients faucet?
Our two tow behind jetters have a water 250 gallon holding tank which on full pressure takes us about 12-15 minutes to blow through. If we start running low we will connect a hose to the house connection and continue to fill as we jet. Were good to jet as long as the water is above the pump prime level when we start 👍
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
These boys deserve every dollar they make and more
Soooo, the other guy casually pokes around in the poo 😂😂😂
CORN 😂
😂 I worked with a guy that called it “Churnin the dookie butter”
No human eats that much CORN. That Corn and grease came from the unmaintained town sewer.
Sewer mains in the street are only pitched at 1/16th" per foot (.005) On outlying sewers, it often isn't enough water flow to move the solids. The water runs out of the solids creating blockages. If the pipe under the road is Clay Pipe, roots may be getting in to the pipe and blocking it. There are companies that come in and replace the entire sewer IN PLACE without digging up the road. The town I lived in did the entire town this way. Some of the trees didn't do so well because they lost their source of water and nutrients.
Chris Gordon We bought into the lining technology about a year ago but only on the residential side of things like 4” cast main sewer or 6” clay.. haven’t gotten into the bigger stuff like lining a street where there is super big money to be made but it’s awesome technology!
@@DrainProsIt is quite a specialized project to do the Street Mains. You have to first locate all of the house connections, then bust out the clay pipe with a specialized tool, then replace all of the laterals with 6" PVC Its pretty cool but expensive because of all of the specialized equipment you need. Like in some places you need underground boring equipment. As soon as someone sees you busy, they think you are making money and they get into it too. Where I lived, a company from Maine came down and worked with a sewer excavation contractor.
I haven't used toilet paper in years. Nothing goes down my sewer lines except water and poop. I bought a hot water bidet and it changed the way I use the bathroom completely. I use warm water to rinse, then soap on my hand and clean up. Use a shop towel to dry and toss it in the trash. I feel so fresh and clean afterwards.
15:56 - the long awaited moment 👌🏻
I made some coffee while watching this... it was a bad idea
Hey guys I think it's awesome you have your own channel going . I know a lot of people watch Drain addict's , you guys are awesome too . Keep up the good work .
Mad respect for you and your crew bro
Who wants a choco milkshake just right about now?
Another great video! I love your sense of humor and your personality. But all of a sudden it dawned on me that's the only way you can get anyone to come near you after you are around the smells you are all day! I imagine if you didn't have that personality your wife would be gone before you turn the corner she could smell you coming. Once again great job and much respect
Since cleaning out the house drain clogged up the City Mains, can/will the City Fine the homeowners for not maintaining their lines properly?
They really should BIG TIME
I understood him to mean that the city sewer runs flat so that, in addition to the faulty homeowner, caused the sludge to not drain properly. That main pipe doesn't look wide enough.
The entire house appears to be a dump.
Yeah it’s a shame when people don’t take care of there properties! Cleaning and organizing doesn’t cost much and everyone is capable of doing it!
legend still says, the poop is still on the side of the house
From what I could see, the lady at the door was dressed in Indian or Middle Eastern garments. They are not the cleanest cultures. Even if you are poor, you can still rake the leaves & try to keep your property looking decent. On another note, why are people putting baby wipes down the toilet? They go in the trash!!!
@@barbrn Tampons too!
@@DrainPros I don't know if the people own this house, but renters are the worst. They don't care what the place looks like inside or out. They just think it's someone else's job.
20:50 You'll find a lot of these critters in Tarpon Springs , Florida. 🤣

dunno why i decided to watch this whilst eating a peanut butter sandwich, the first time i've eaten peanut butter in like a decade too so yeah, bloody strange. Great vid tho!
I’m learning how to jet by watching your videos day by day :)
nidoevin1 Love to spread the trade.. pretty soon we’re going to have to put you on a van to go to work! 💪👍
Drain Pros I just help my dad snake drains for a living but we just don’t do jetting
nidoevin1 Awesome 👏 anyone brave enough to cable drains has my respect! It’s nice having the jetter as a back up to get the clog open faster if the drain machine is struggling! If you see any jet videos that you have a question about let me know and I’ll do my best to help! 👍
Hi! I love watching these videos!
Thanks Green Planet! I’ll try my best to keep them coming.. appreciate the support 👍

awesome,awesome job.
Thanks Tom 👍! Have a great night
Wow first video I find of yours........”hmmmmm ima follow”
Question: Novice here, in this Episode 50, why did you only use the penetrating nozzle? By the diameter of you hose I'm assuming you're getting 18 GPM out of your rig. I was confused after seeing the clay tile, why you would default to wipes being the cause of the blockage and not roots? Roots and/or wipes would have been my first thought. Either way, to my thinking, I would have ran a rooter nozzle to clear any possible roots? I'm really surprised that didn't get consideration here, but I'm still learning. To aid with my own learning curve, I appreciate you sharing your thought processes here and help me get grow! Thanks in advance!
By only running a penitrater the plumber makes sure they will be called back out in a year. Or there was no roots in the line and no need to run a cutter. That's why it's important to always TV the line.
You also need a mascot like ratty 🤣

GOOD VIDEOS I LOVE MANHOLES AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IS UNCLOGGING MAINLINES AND T AND Y CONNECTIONS FROM '16 TO '35INCHE PIPES GOOD JOB👍👍
how the hell the maker of ' wet wipes ' won their court case(s) re: blocked sewers is beyond me...
Well its simple. The judge got paid off
On every package of wet wipes i've bought it specifically says do not flush, but I don't know if its the same in other countries. Plus some people just don't care to throw them in the trash.
Stop flushing wet wipes for fucks sake
Why didn't you wash it back down the drain and just leave your water running after the clean up to wash out the drain?
We didn’t want to put to much thick sludge back into the sewer pipe before the city sewer had their line open so we used a garden hose after the video ended for a few minutes to keep the sludge in the pipe pretty thin. If the line was open I would have washed as much away as possible like you said with a garden hose to cut it!
Lmao Why My Guy Sound Like American Version Of Terroriser From The Vanoss Crew Lmfao
The sidewalk should have been clean up properly if you need repeat service..
Finally someone that knows how to jet! 🤙🏼 well I’ve only watched like 2 diff guys here on YT lol
Every time I come across sludge like that I always use a 6 rear-3 front RPD to really break down the sludge with lots of water volume. (I don’t think I’ve ever used my chisel head) but maybe I should. I would have also flushed out that line with LOTS OF WATER. If the city backs up? I’ll make a quick call and they can take care of it. Just gives me peace of mind knowing that the entire line would be sludge free.
Thank you Marino! 👍 Nice to hear from another drain cleaner.. I called the city on this one, usually they come right over and get it open but they had two crews stuck on problem lines so it was going to be about an hour! Went back the next day to camera, several lips in the clays (surprisingly no roots). Hope you are staying safe and busy through this virus!
Very nice! That’s what good Drian cleaners do. We never leave doubting our work. Also, thank god for sewer cameras also! Where are you guys from? Looking forward to seeing new videos- keep the content coming. I’m a jetter and camera tech so this is all I do!
My uncle has been a plumber sense he was 18. He is now in his 50’s, working for the same company he started with!
It’s a rewarding job, on the financial end. Haha.
Interesting video! Thank you for sharing. I always wondered how this worked.
We all need plumbers in this world. You all are strong.
To my understanding, this is just one type of job (out of many others), that a plumber does.
Instead of the rat king it's the tampon king
It looks like the sewer system was built way back when as it appears to have the storm drain dumping into the sanitary sewer. Very old school. But that was the way it was back then. Now a lot of places are (money permitting) are doing separate waste and storm drains. I know ALL new systems have to be separate. But given our fiscal crisis/depression this will probably push this WAY back. Maybe time to get the WPA up and running again to repair our outdated, unmaintained sewer and water and electrical systems.
MrTommyboy68 Absolutely! We definitely have same very outdated plumbing systems up by me! Would be awesome to see them require updates 👍
So satisfying. Plz make a patron pageeeeeee
Good video. ♡ T.E.N.
I think these low flow toilets are not helping too, less water to move solids. You teasing me with the inspection camera out but didn’t use it 🤬. Thanks
😂 I know, would have been a great one to camera but until the city opens there side we would most likely only see the first 10-20 and then loose sludge covering the camera! 👍
Capt. Kenneth Abney it was the tampons that plugged it. Never throw those down.
Steve's how-to and auto Almost ever clog we run into has at least a baby wipe or tampon involved in it 👍
Same. Roots are a big issue on old stuff too
how the hell the maker of ' wet wipes ' won their court case(s) re: blocked sewers is beyond me...
A good word of advice is pull with your legs not your back it helps so much
When you realize it's not dirt on the brim of his hat!...much respect
Wow that man do be tall tho 🤣
Yes every time you work the hose it's going down and also every time you work the hose you touch your hat..
The Municipality needs to maintain their sewer mains. The Massachusetts town I lived and worked in had a program of regularly cleaning the mains in the streets. If the mains are clean and flowing, the baby wipes don't get clogged.
You may be dealing with clay pipe, full of roots. That place has been a problem for years. That's not the first time someone has been there. Did you run your camera in there and look for problems?
That house is old enough to have had the downspouts connected to the sewer. EPA ordered that no downspouts can be connected to the Sanitary Sewers. When it used to rain, the rain helped clean the grease sludge from the Sewer Mains. How old is that sewer? Almost 100 years old? Where is that location? New York State ? Long Island?
Chris Gordon Agreed wish we could get a contract with the municipality to clean all the lines! Currently in our area each municipality watches over and maintains their own.
We are located in New York, We had a record of jetting/camera work at this property a year ago with the same issue super sludged up from tampons/wipes/condoms and a video recording of no roots or offsets in the clay pipe. We informed the landlord of the same issue as last time and that after the city opened there side of things we could return to camera the line.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment Chris! 👍
@@DrainPros In my opinion and experience, these residential blockages are caused by the municipalities not maintaining their sewers. "Out of sight, Out of mind." That poor old lady living in that house didn't generate all of that grease. So they blame it on her and try to make her pay for your work. That problem has been there for longer than you have probably been on this earth. That cleanout beside the house was added later. It isn't part of the original plumbing for that house. When it was "new", it probably had a Little Bity House Out Back" with a 1/4 moon cut into the door and a Sears Catalog on the wall.
Without seeing the location, I'll bet that there is a bathroom and kitchen right inside from that cleanout. That was the original plumbing for the home. It might have even had a septic tank and it was replaced by the town sewer. The sewer and the water service may even be in the same trench. It might have even been vented by the downspouts draining into the sewer.
The Massachusetts town I lived and worked in, was always responsible for all sewers outside the foundations. Mains and Laterals. The problems were tree roots Usually where the laterals connected to the street mains. Out in the road. Whenever I had a problem like yours,, I ended putting in a 3rd world cleanout on the yard at the property line. Especially if I had to dig it up to rod it out. That was a one time thing. Never twice. I bought a piece of 10" SDR green pipe and cut off pieces of what I needed. Cut and fitted the bottom to fit over the sewer pipe in the ground like a street curb box would be. Cut out the top of the lateral as needed, cemented the 10" piece in place and fitted the top with a 12 Round electrical plastic splice box. Then, if there are nasties in the pipe, its coming from the street and NOT from the house. NOW, you can rod in both directions.
Chris Gordon That’s slick! Wish every house had a setup like that, would make our job a whole lot easier 👍
@@DrainProsObviously, they aren't doing their jobs.
My Motto for years: "There's never enough time to do it right. But there's always time to do it over and fix it when it stops working."
@@DrainProsInvest in one of those sewer suck trucks that you can suck out the catch basins and you can water jet sewer lines. You will get ALL of the town work. There are more and more of them coming upon the used equipment market.
this is oddly satisfying
😂 I agree! Even before I started drain cleaning there is a weird satisfying feeling you get when the clog opens and the waste water flows away!
These guys probably making more than some software engineers yet our world has trained us to not want to do this job and want to be a software engineer.
Looks like some good honey oatmeal :)
I like how the video ad at the beginning was about organic hamburgers. I’m telling you, it had to be intentional.

Looking to get into the business. What jetter is the best to buy?
So is that stuff not considered a bio-hazard???
is when the water goes down is that good

All of a sudden I love my job
Your videos are great! You always have these seemingly impossible clogs to have to get rid of. You should have another camera so we can see the progress from both sides and you would not have to do so much running back and forth! Keep up the great work. You keep your town running smoothly.
Thank you for the kind words bicep! I’ve been eyeing another go pro for the future to do just that.. hoping to make that happen 👍
Man's got franklin's house from gtA 5
Man that taco bell
I wonder if the client has more of that stuff stored in a barrel and was casually sending it down the drain when these guys got it unblocked.
Nothing teaches a home owner how to use a sewer properly like a big repair invoice. Our home has been 12+ years clog free.... other than stuff you can fix with a plunger.
I would be very mad at you just splashing that all around and not forcing most of it back in the clean out. Then run that water down the hole to wash that down. What about spreading some lime?
Mmmmmmmmm. I feel the strange desire for a chocolate Frosty.
😂
A Mocha from Starbucks!!
I will never see the ninja turtles the same way ever
can't help but wonder if that "spring" was once a drain cable from a ghost of plumbing past, lol! I think if it were me, i would have ran the length of the pipe one more time, after a few toilet flushes, as im sure some of that sludge was still inside the house, but as always, great video, thanks for what you do
Thanks Scott! After I ended the video we hooked up the garden hose for 10 minutes to keep her sludge thinned out and test it more until the municipal could get there to open their side!
I had a Ridgid KM-1500 machine. Years ago, I lost a 15' 1" wire section in a sewer. I couldn't get it back. It must have finally been removed when they replaced the entire clay pipe sewer. Never caused any problems.
You definitely should have ran a bunch of water in that manhole to make it flow easier. If you would’ve left my pipes full of sludge I would’ve been very upset cuz if I went and flushed my toilet it would not have flushed very well and possibly could have backed up.
We ran a bunch of water after the video in the customer clean out to keep the sludge thin but we aren’t allowed under our insurance or by the municipality to do anything at all on the city sewer, honestly shouldn’t have even had the shovel in there but I wanted to check if it was just right there. Appreciate you watching and commenting Alan 👍
@@DrainPros why not call the city and have them come oit with a jet truck to run their lines to make sure they are flowing
I did, they had a couple emergency dog jobs they had crews on so it was going to be a 1.5/2 hours.. they called me later on that night to let me know they got it with open in easily.
When youhave a clog in a line like that. How come you don't jet it out from the city side?? Instead of burrowing through the muck attack it from the frount by the city man hole.
Maybe it will create a shit geyser.
We always called Tampons " White Mice ".

The heavy breathing and the back and forth was really hard to overlook. Why didn’t he have the lady flush the toilet to flush it through? Why not poor a big bucket of water in there to flush it out. And why didn’t he scrape the sludge back into the pipe? So he stuck a hose down a pipe.....and loosened a clog that’s just gonna come right back since the line isn’t flowing cause he didn’t flush it. So Drain Pro just means pressure washer hose with a tip I can get on Amazon for $12.
Why do you always jet the pipes instead of using a rodrunner snake? It would make almost no mess with the same result. That's what we always use where I work and the actually unclogging only takes us about 20 mins with no sewage getting blown out everywhere.
Jory Mills Jory Mills We cable most of the lines before jetting to try and open the pipe. On this job we cabled from the clean out 75 feet for approx two hours but the sludge was so thick it wouldn’t move so that is when we bring in the jetter.. we could have sat for 8 hours and with that much sludge it wasn’t going to push through for us! The jetter uses the high pressure water to break up the sludge and liquify it to get it moving forward! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment Jory! 👍
@@DrainPros We have different heads depending on what the clog is. We constantly have to chew through roots, feminine hygiene products, rags, I've even had to break through a diaper once. We use a cutter for roots and what we call the horseshoe for big stuff like pads. I'm not saying it will work for you guys because I never have encountered sludge. We mostly deal with people putting stuff in pipes that don't belong. I was just merely making a suggestion from what we do.
Jory Mills Thank you Jory!! It’s amazing what people put down the drain pipe. Sometimes I have a hard time figuring out how they even get the stuff down there lol
I was going to ask the same question... thanks for answering
