    In today's episode, we learn that negative interpersonal relationships and positive drain pressure can both be solved by identifying the root of the problem and clearing the blockages away. ;)

    Do roots come through a break in the pipe or do they break the pipe pushing their way in? You need to teach Ratty how to do some of the physical labor, not just to sit by and get dusty. 💚💚

    • @tubester4567
      @tubester4567 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Both, the clay pipes are flawed because you have to use short sections which means more joins. Thats what they did before plastic ones. The clay pipes have a rubber sleeve in the joins but over time the rubber perishes then the roots find their way in. Tree Roots on the outside can also lift the pipe and damage it. Roots can crack a concrete driveway or road. The clay pipes can get broken by landscapers or owners if they are not deep enough. Plastic pipes are better, less joins and they are glued together, they can also flex.
