Amazing work. I’m exhausted just watching. DA pulls out roots the size of an eagle’s nest, cuts open a cast iron pipe, runs up and down three flights of stairs, lugs a small suitcase that contains 100 pounds of gear, locates a blockage just by sense, digs a hole at the exact place of the blockage, blasts out concrete in the pipe, and then clears the drain so it functions. Wow! DA is also the Drain Deity, the Drain Surgeon, the Drain Wrangler, the Drain King, the Drain Boss, the Drain General, the Drain Ruler, etc. Best channel on TH-cam!
But why the hell was there concrete (was it was actually real sand/cement/stones concrete) in the pipe in the first place? Who pours concrete down a drain pipe?
@@simontay4851 roots damaged a PVC pipe somewhere, broke it, then it got worse. At some point point I assume, stuffs that are around the pipe just start falling into it, like the stones at 2:23 The root cause is that plants root are able to break PVC given enough time, but it's never really mentioned. Just look up "Do tree roots grow in PVC pipe" on Google / TH-cam. This is real problem that needs to be solved.
an experienced and honest professional who does the job right..and he is always hustling..i would hire this Lad in a minute..He puts so many others to shame..thank you Sir..
You sir are a hero. You tackle all problems big or small. No excuses. And you are really really good at your job. Bravo sir! Love your videos and love your work.
Stumbled onto this page, but now I find myself watching them all. I’m in the construction field and always appreciated a man that makes things happen and is skilled at his trade. It’s very rare these days. I applaud you sir.
Drain job, never got paid enough. I was layoff, looking for temple job, got trained for six months, but did not go for drain job as internship. I said no, I like to work on electrical, install sink, toilet, gas and electrical stove, but not getting involvement with drains.
When my co-workers complain bout their Job and say they are having a shitty day, I show them some of these videos and they get back to work twice as hard !!! Thanks Mate
OMG!!! You are like an Egyptian Archaeologist searching for hidden tunnels!!! It is like you have a Sixth Sense when it comes to drains. I bow to your wisdom and talent sir!!
Wowsers!! I still can't get over the fact that water heaters and pipes above ground. Here in Canada, those would freeze completely and bust in our winters. Summers wouldn't be too bad, but winters are brutal here. Glad to see that your listening skills are top notch. You were pretty bang on with the pipe.. maybe an inch or three off, but not enough to have to dig up the whole yard looking. Great job, length was just about right.. maybe Justin can keep a running commentary when able about what you are doing and what you need to do to get this pipe cleaned out and working again. I know you (Ollie) really doesn't have time, as you are hustling your butt all over to find all the blockages. Good call on the blockage from the cast pipe. Concrete isn't a good thing to have in there. Great work, and these longer ones are perfect. lol Have a great day gents!!!
I love in The USA in Blacksburg VA. And that water heater would not last at all in winter here it would freeze and busy May even explode during the summer months. Don't know
Where the weather never goes below freezing temperature you can get away with exposed sewer piping and outdoor water heater + water piping as shown. That wouldn't last long here in Rhode Island either! But as it's starting to get cooler now, I wouldn't mind a nice warm climate like that :)
The camera man was phenomenal , instead of turning off the camera while the plumber went to get a tool, the camera man gave viewers a look at the surroundings, and didn’t shake the camera the rest of the time. The plumber more than earned his money, didn’t waste any time. If I needed a plumber, I would want this guy!
As I watched I thought did my mans just earth bend to find the clog. So I re watched it and picked up on a very smart move. You'll notice he feeds the line and then hold on to the line at the point of the clog. Then without moving his hand from that spot walks out the distant till the line returns to the top giving him a rough estimation of where to feel out for the vibrations and center in on it from there. Still very impressive!
@@lucyr8711 He swears with his body language. You could tell before the halfway mark: he knew this job was bad - you might even call it a _shit_ job ;) - and by the end, he was _done_ ...but, even still, he did all that he could, and eliminated the blockages.
I get so tired just watching him that I think I'm going to have to go take a nap! Amazing work! And why this stuff fascinates me so much is something that I do not yet understand.
@@kainenmattison3665 lol right, meanwhile this guy probably pays his "employees" minimum wage as is standard in America for unskilled labor, yet expects them to hustle.
Dear Drain Addict: At 3:00 minutes: Therefore, at this point: A electric snake would be ineffective, and a manual hand-crank snake would be like whining wildly on a wizened haggard, sore with effort and wrought with disappointment. This jetting was so effective. I appreciate this video.
This is a very interesting video! Working problems faster then I could. I like how he seamlessly finds one problem, works it, and then moves to the next. Excellent worker! I'm impressed with his motivation and drive to do a good job.
You showed how to locate the problem and solved it. I like your work ethic. This job is not for everyone. I'd rather pay someone. But thanks for the video.
Wow I’m Exhausted just watching this guy I’m am impressed with the knowledge he has and the hard work he has put into this job He deserves a A++++ and a Raise ... great job keep up the good honest work !!!!
It's just amazing how you can find the source of a blocked drain and find a remedy just like it was nothing at all. You're just the best plumber that I ever seen at your job.
I was watching your videos yesterday and I kept thinking you were adding sound effects at weird times. I finally realized it’s actually the wildlife where you live. Hahaha.
This man is brilliant at his job and a pleasure to watch work. If you weren't on the other side of the world I'd pour concrete down the sink just to shake your hand. This is how you earn a day's pay!
You can tell god created this man to be a master plumber. He does ish 99.8 percent of the on this plantet wouldn't do. Guy doesn't think twice about it and doesn't complain.
First I was thinking "That's just disgusting" and few minutes later I was disappointed that I wasn't able to see everything. What the hell is happening to me?!?
Or when the site next door does some retaining wall repairs but the concrete pump operator doesn't give a toss where his overflow runs away to. Had to lift all my buried PVC rain runoff feeders to the street gutter and bash out the half choke cement & then re-bury it.
Can’t for the life of me understand why I find it satisfying watching your videos bud 😂 I like when you break out the penetrator and the ol double barrel
Maybe because thats the natural order of things. Also, maybe the drains of life in Us are in need of such cleaning and that Life feels it inside when it sees it happening outside..!
I have been living in a house with s beautiful tree that give lot's of shade and providers a swing and tree house to the kids but the sewer line has Roots infiltration do I bought my own equipment to do maintenance and yes it is satisfying when the blockage pops, the tree and I have a Love and hate relationship, lol

You guys are drain Artists great job it takes experience to work out a job like this.
This guy does nothing but hustle his butt off, much respect. Almost running up and down those stairs.
Steve Cohron when you get paid by the job time is money.
This man is a bloodhound. How did he know where to dig? I guess he could feel, hear, and smell the pipe below ground. Much respect, sir.
The Drain Whisper
You can feel/hear that thing in the ground. Simply find the spot where it is loudest and vibration is strongest...... And dig.
Yes….Ollie has built in radar…. And can see a pipe underneath the ground.
Can't believe on the edge of my seat watching a drain clearing. Great camera work too, well done men!
Freaking brillant watching him unclog the clog.
I honestly don't know how or why this was on my feed... but i am in love with drain videos now.
This guy is such a hard worker. He wears me out watching, but I do
Holy Crap! I’m exhausted watching you how hard you work. Hustling!
geuys you need rest 👍
He is able to feel the blockage through the earth wow
Vibration from the jet water you can hear and feel the vibration.

40mins, you know it'll be a good one...

The kind of bloke who would surprise a big bully in a bar fight for sure.
Is it weird that I thought to myself, "That's some good looking dirt." as he was digging?

I thought the same thing. We have red clay here.
Not Ohio clay. That is some nice dirt.
no, i did too. here the dirt is hard as a rock and when he was digging it looked so soft.
Shelby Lee I like my dirt to be nice and dark so I don’t exactly agree it looks a bit dry lol
Great panoramic camera work at 8:40. Some serious skill and knowledge, timing Ollie’s return perfectly ; and again at 14.20.👌
Concrete in the pipes is what happens when the Brickies aren't paid ...
Or when the site next door does some retaining wall repairs but the concrete pump operator doesn't give a toss where his overflow runs away to. Had to lift all my buried PVC rain runoff feeders to the street gutter and bash out the half choke cement & then re-bury it.
Bricks were shat.
Does it worth to repair ? Or just install a new line.
But to be fair...did you see the brickwork? No effort to match new and old brick whatsoever...maybe they didn't deserve to get paid.
How did you fix the holes you cut in the pipes?
Some lovely specimens there. The Kookaburra were out in full force, too.
You know you have watched a few of these when you can second guess what head he's going to use next
What a all around job that was. Good thing the soil was sandy and no rocks or hard clay. Thanks for showing us your work ❤
All I could think was, "HOLY SHIT!" Then I remembered that is was actually watching shit and realized my quarantine life has lead me to this channel.
