Sir, I believe you may be lost. But fear not, you'll find plenty of genuinely nice & experienced pipe-layers, more than eager to show a young newbie the ropes over on AngleGrindr. Best of luck to you !
You're not lost, you're 18. You're doing exactly what you're supposed to do. Go try everything. Just don't waste your time doing what I did... just about almost nothing... and opiates.
@Lonelaw OnePunchOnion it seems like it's harder and harder to find genuine people nowadays. I know everyone says this but especially the younger generations I've been yelled at tell me why I should not respect my elders or anybody for that matter by my own generation. I just don't understand what and where it went wrong people don't respect people anymore and it's really sad. Like the other day my wife put a post on Facebook to for someone with a truck to haul 3 things off for us. We were gonna pay them you know and everything we aren't assholes but this guy came out there and said oh it's gonna be 200 bucks to haul it off. I was like wtf you wanna charge that much for 3 things and you literally live 5 mins away from me and the dump is maybe 10 mins away? It was a small children's dresser a recliner and a king size mattress (just the mattress mind you not the box springs just the freaking mattress). My wife told him she'll put it on her car and take it before she pays somebody $200 for maybe 30 mins of their time total for something as easy as that. He said he would have to leave and get a trailer (I wasn't there at that time) he tried to tell her he needed a full truck and trailer for those 3 things like what kinda truck do you have? A Subaru brat? People kept commenting and saying like 100 150 and stuff and finally this guy messaged her and said he would do it for free. He said what happened to people being neighborly anymore? People helping people fist to help doesn't happen anymore they always ask what's in it for me first. She even tried to throw him a 20 or just put the gas back in his truck and he wouldn't let her do it.
Only this man could have me sit here and watch a full length video about human waste and the various ways it's disposal goes wrong . Dude is so calming
Roger is the total opposite of Drain Addict lmao. Roger's like your sword and shield against the horrors of sewage meanwhile Drain Addict is like the plumbing equivalent of snuff films
You got a great channel here. I'm a plumber that worked exclusively as a service plumber. My coworkers hated it when the customer would stand over their shoulders and watch, but I loved it. It was a great time to talk to my customers about what was actually happening and to find out if there was other things I could look at. So, now I teach plumbing and heating and a local college.
If you dont tell them you are watching then it costs you nothing. until, of course, you fall out for the tree, get hit by a car, and your mother falls in love with you.
How does this guy not have more subscribers? I'm in university to become a wildlife conservationist, nothing even close to plumbing, but these videos are seriously entertaining!
I'm a seventeen-year-old girl who helps her dad DIY the plumbing in our house a lot. I love your channel and find it really interesting and helpful. Just wanted to say thank you for the videos! ☺
I’m a young 21 year old plumber from the uk and I really love watching your videos and seeing how you guys do it over in America really cool to see the different ways of doing things to how we do over here Great content
The pipe liner shown with the hole saw holes and cracks gets inflated into the pipe, then pressurized with air to expand it to the inside of the pipe then cured with resin and steam. Pretty cool process. Hope that helps you. We did a lot of that years ago to fix underground commercial swimming pool pipes.
Didn't realize they used compressed air to inflate them, I figured they used pressurized steam to do it all in one shot. Though using air would be safer, thanks for the explanation.
As a plumber, I feel it's important to note that there are different levels of being a plumber. You're not really a "real" plumber until you've been baptized into our trade like the guy at 2:26
First day on job got baptized. I heard a swoosh from a flushed toilet while I was about 8 feet in the air. No place to hide. Had to just take it and keep moving.
@@jimparsons9454 how did you get hit by a flushed toilet 8 feet in the air? Im a plumber got knocked off a ladder in a sewage pit at a prison that had a blocked line. 10 foot fall landed on grinder pump and then went swimming in raw sewage.
So, just a random here from RUclips recommended; but my dad was a plumber for like 15 years. I remember he used to always show me pictures (some small company thing they documented everything they did) of some of the more “interesting” (his words) stuff he’s worked on. Barbie heads in toilet drains, clogged P-traps, chocolate milk flowing out of drain clean outs. Now he tends to help out plumbers when they come take care of stuff that’s a bit big for him, or he doesn’t feel like doing it. The local plumbing company gave him like a 100$ labor discount for helping the guys replace the main line under the yard and add a clean out. Anyhow, Love the video, and I plan to send this to him he will love it.
Had clean outs blow on me but hey the drain has to get opened. Also, the last one, the homeowner who wants to watch. I always said, it will cost you double if you watch and triple if you try to help. And remember my fellow plumbers. Hot is on the left, cold is on the right, crap flows downhill, pay day is on Friday and DON'T chew your fingernails!
I always want to watch when I have someone making a repair in my home (I'm just a curious person and grew up watching/helping my dad work around the house), but I also understand that being watched on the job sucks, so I just awkwardly hang out in the next room in case they need me to do something or show them where something is, while we both pretend not to hear the cat yelling about being locked in the bedroom as if he doesn't spend 90% of the day in there already.
Lol should be more like right is cold and left is hot... _except for when it’s not!_ 😝 Cuz I know in the house I grew up in, the bathroom sink faucet was the opposite and had hot on the right. I was obvs used to it but it was def confusing for guests lol
Im the opposite way, as long as the customer can stay out of the way, they can watch all they want. My mantra is, if you dont want to be watched while you do the work, youre probably doing something you shouldnt..
My mantra is everybody farts, but nobody likes smelling other peoples farts.. well most everybody but it they can put up with a fart and still stick around and watch then they deserve to watch and probably good people...
This is my 1st video of yours sir and I am fascinated by the concept and the work you do. Wonderfully done and will have to watch more. Also I have to say your moustache is utterly epic
the video is great . i have been a mechanical engineer for over 30 years and some of the owners that i have dealt with make you want to scream or strangle them but some make the job well worth it
That’s how we all know you are a good honest guy. You making videos for us simple folk so we don’t have to spend money when sometimes it’s a diy. Thank you for being awesome!
I agree with Roger. I enjoy the problem-solving and trade of Plumbing. I am not a professional plumber, but if I ever went into a trade it would be Plumbing for sure. Ultimately I am the homeowner watching the plumber. Not to annoy, but to learn. I'll jump in wherever I can to lend a hand in the job and still pay the rate because they are the professionals when you need them.
My favorite was I pulled a toilet I couldn't get an auger through. Looked underneath and there was a vertebrae bone jammed at the outlet. They had dumped a pot of old oxtail soup but "it didn't have any bones".
sir, you saved my future self. Thank you. I am remodeling my master. i had shark bites on the shower supply lines, but after watching your video i learned how to solder copper and converted the shower to pex. I took back the shark bites and got back my $80
Worst thing I’ve ever had to do was clean out a basement crawl space of a hospital that had a water leak/sewer line break that went undiscovered for weeks. I can’t get that smell out of my memories.
I like this guy. He's got good values and great character. Seems to have quite a bit of knowledge. You kept my attention for a full 10+ mins and I have adult adhd so that was a feat if nothing else lol
@@trap9273 no, was kicked out my junior year. got ged much later , went threw drug rehab when I was 19yo. I do believe being stoned 24/7 saved me in hs
Just accidentally came across the video. I like it man good stuff, keep it coming. Yes I have dealt with, helped, or supervised, every single thing seen in that video even the asphalt one. But somehow I’m still alive!
I'm always forced to be a plumber, electrician, fabricator and ect growing up and living on a farm. I believe the anger issues, contemplating divorce and all life's choices comes with it all, and the just wishing it got done all while smoking weed watching sounds the best.
I'm 6'-1"and when a looky-loo was way too close, I would start to strategically move my tool bag closer and closer to them as I readjusted under the toilet working on an angle stop in a small bathroom. Works like a charm!
yeah those vac trucks are pretty awesome. i used to do sewer maintenance for my city, and we used a truck pretty much identical to the one you showed for nearly every dig. especially with our ground being mostly hardpack clay and large rock, those things are awesome. pressure washer is strong enough to cut through the clay like butter and the suction off the vacuum can easily pick up a rock that weighs about the same as a person.
You should get a job in healthcare then ive seen a nurse administer suppositories pull off the gloves wash their hands and go back to eating their sandwich. It takes certian kinds of people.
Well I install above ground and inground pools also and do alot plunbing/plumbing repair. But not this kind of plumbing haha. I see some nasty stuff sometimes
So I just found your channel and I'm binge watching it lol. but my dad is the kind of dad who thinks he can fix anything (unfortunately not always the case) but I have to say if we had to call in a plumber to fix something I'd definitely be someone who would want to watch....not to like "supervise" and scrutinize everything your doing, but just simply out of pure curiosity xD
Having lived in two different girls' dorms in college, I can verify that "girls' bathroom" tik tok. Applicable to both the drains and the communal vacuum cleaner. Bleh!
Yep, when dads not at work fixing cars hes at home cleaning out drains. My wife and 3 daughters, and my son has longish hair, that video was so accurate. Pulled things out of those drains I swear was alive.
Look up “Trenchless Pipelining” for that sewer line “fix”. The inserted line ends up getting inflated and then hardens. I believe it is a fiberglass type liner that gets inverted into the pipe. Requires special equipment
The liner gets inserted then pressurized somewhat with very hot water, that hardens the liner. It seals some pretty decent sized holes. After hardening a robot thing is run through the pipe, camera finds the circular bulges where lines connect, and a saw cuts a port there.
but this type of repair is not done by most residential plumbers, the setup is very expensive. Where I live in florida the city just went through and jacketed all their 10 inch mains. the system blows it up like a balloon until it hardens.
That’s just the install of the liner, a “balloon” pipe goes inside and is inflated to 10psi and expands the liner wall to wall until it cures and the balloon is pulled out at the end
Sweet video. As a homeowner I got to say after trying to solder in ceilings and stuff close to the supply, shark bite fittings are a godsend. Just have to suck it up and spend $20 a piece. Worth it!
My favorite plumbing story is the contractors who mentored my brother and the building business once used gutter downspout for a drainage line from a door well drain. Just imagine the trouble those homeowners were destined for. In my own home, the biggest mystery is why it takes 3 gallons of water to get hot water in my shower when there is only 3 quarts of volume in the pipe from the heater to the showerhead . I crawled all through the attic, looking for some sort of crossed line, but never did figure it out 😢
Just the other day while changing out a shower mixing unit, I had a guy watching who had heavy breathing reactions to every move I made. He literally gasp at every slip of the wrench or water spillage...
as a new construction plumber its hard to watch these i have a new appreciation for what you service guys go through and know it is definitely not for me i will be sticking to new construction haha
The stuff that came out in the first clip were baby wipes and thats exactly why it says not to flush them..after the toilet paper shortages recently there is going to be alot more of that happening.they put that stuff on the package for a reason
Wasn't a homeowner at the time but as a renter i learned how to fix plumbing issues and reported them to my landlord he ended up hiring me as a handyman anytime his normal guy couldnt make it. usually paid my rent every month with just a few hours of work for him. All thanks to you and guys like you!
I'm Hvac and think we overcharge too, but there's a good reason. I did installs and they're pretty cruel to the body. 130°F in an attic for 6 hrs can kill you if your not prepared, but the servicing side can be a little on the finessing side. Here in Phoenix, anyone will pay whatever amount to get their A/c to work when its 115°f daily.
@@cafenightster4548 exactly man, I used to have all trades in house but as of covid my HVAC techs are sub contract i.e. $200 to come and diagnose a fridge 😆 finesse is an understatement, I charge $150 for the diagnostic so he had to come down. Also here in Miami these are mostly water source heat pumps in an AC closet above the water heater. Install takes about 4 hours (removal and disposal of old unit) I pay $400-$500 to my techs for this. I've had guys tell me they would do it for $800 lol how much would I have to charge the customer 😅
@@cafenightster4548 and not for nothing, it's the one trade that has the most complications. I've seen an AC have trouble because the wire harness was faulty and needed tl be replaced. When changing the board and thermostat (bracket and all) didn't work we tried changing out the harness. I respect the trade. I guess maybe I should have studied it instead lol 👀
I always assumed it was awkward to just sit over someone's shoulder when they work on something at my place, but I do at the end like them to do a quick show and tell of the service
I've always heard if you don't like people watching you have something to hide lol. Not saying you personally do just a saying. I do like to watch because I can pick up on things really quick so if it's something small I don't have to call someone if it happens again. But I always ask anyways if they care if I watch that way at least it won't be awkward for them.
@peroh right? Other people have jobs they have to do in front of customers all the time. They're not special lol they can be watched and you are in my home too I've heard of people stealing stuff as well so there's that.
As a plumber when a whole house is stopped up I love unscrewing a cleanout in the front yard and seeing that.... Usually means an easy clean out with a drain king
Absolutely the over the shoulder moments but I agree, I do like to teach people how to fix their issues especially if I don’t wanna come back to the problem and it’s something they feel confident in and can take care of it themselves.
Y'all want to see more Tik Tok videos?

yeah those vac trucks are pretty awesome. i used to do sewer maintenance for my city, and we used a truck pretty much identical to the one you showed for nearly every dig. especially with our ground being mostly hardpack clay and large rock, those things are awesome. pressure washer is strong enough to cut through the clay like butter and the suction off the vacuum can easily pick up a rock that weighs about the same as a person.
The fact that i can watch this while eating makes me concerned about my mental health
You should get a job in healthcare then ive seen a nurse administer suppositories pull off the gloves wash their hands and go back to eating their sandwich. It takes certian kinds of people.
First time watching. Actually enjoyable and informative.
I did minor plumbing repair on swimming pools. This still had me entertained
Well I install above ground and inground pools also and do alot plunbing/plumbing repair. But not this kind of plumbing haha. I see some nasty stuff sometimes
So I just found your channel and I'm binge watching it lol. but my dad is the kind of dad who thinks he can fix anything (unfortunately not always the case) but I have to say if we had to call in a plumber to fix something I'd definitely be someone who would want to watch....not to like "supervise" and scrutinize everything your doing, but just simply out of pure curiosity xD
Having lived in two different girls' dorms in college, I can verify that "girls' bathroom" tik tok. Applicable to both the drains and the communal vacuum cleaner. Bleh!
Yep, when dads not at work fixing cars hes at home cleaning out drains. My wife and 3 daughters, and my son has longish hair, that video was so accurate.
Pulled things out of those drains I swear was alive.
I always like to stick around in case a tradesman needs something from me. This way, they don't need to try and find me.
16:50 I actually laughed at that because my dad worked on a crab boat for a while. Let’s just say there is some truth to that one.
As a plumber that’s only been doing plumbing for 3 years! It’s not for the weak stomachs!
So positive, I like this video man, you seem like an awesome dude
Look up “Trenchless Pipelining” for that sewer line “fix”. The inserted line ends up getting inflated and then hardens. I believe it is a fiberglass type liner that gets inverted into the pipe. Requires special equipment
The liner gets inserted then pressurized somewhat with very hot water, that hardens the liner. It seals some pretty decent sized holes. After hardening a robot thing is run through the pipe, camera finds the circular bulges where lines connect, and a saw cuts a port there.
I've done sliplining using HDPE pipe inside uPVC or earthenware pipe.....pneumatic and hydraulic types..(thanks van leer)
@@Bodi2000 it also can be done with steam.
but this type of repair is not done by most residential plumbers, the setup is very expensive. Where I live in florida the city just went through and jacketed all their 10 inch mains. the system blows it up like a balloon until it hardens.
@@Bodi2000 cctv the sewer line
I thought about being a plumber but this is the kind of stuff that haunts ya. Thank God I'm an electrician
I hear ya bro, that's why I am a refrigeration tech
That’s just the install of the liner, a “balloon” pipe goes inside and is inflated to 10psi and expands the liner wall to wall until it cures and the balloon is pulled out at the end
Sweet video. As a homeowner I got to say after trying to solder in ceilings and stuff close to the supply, shark bite fittings are a godsend. Just have to suck it up and spend $20 a piece. Worth it!
My favorite plumbing story is the contractors who mentored my brother and the building business once used gutter downspout for a drainage line from a door well drain. Just imagine the trouble those homeowners were destined for.
In my own home, the biggest mystery is why it takes 3 gallons of water to get hot water in my shower when there is only 3 quarts of volume in the pipe from the heater to the showerhead . I crawled all through the attic, looking for some sort of crossed line, but never did figure it out 😢
Yo the editing on this made me cry laughing
1:26 When the apprentices have kids to feed.
Just the other day while changing out a shower mixing unit, I had a guy watching who had heavy breathing reactions to every move I made. He literally gasp at every slip of the wrench or water spillage...
I'm a second year apprentice in commercial construction and seeing those service videos make me really glad I'm in new construction
I've been a drain and sewer guy for almost 20 yrs. I enjoy your videos and commentary😁
3:15 I would NOT be grabbing used toilet paper with my bare hands, YUCK
I've sure they've been in worse so that's like nothing to them.
And thats why plumbers make money, Thankyou.
@@bordaymoo9228 No professional plumber would use his bare hands to touch used toilet paper.
But imagine the taste
Ok so the simple fart sounds when you cut to the next scene are killing me man 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Rule #32. Enjoy the little things 😌
Hello Grayson 😎
So we meet again. Hello Repeatedly Banned😎
as a new construction plumber its hard to watch these i have a new appreciation for what you service guys go through and know it is definitely not for me i will be sticking to new construction haha
I want to be a plumber when I leave school and I love watching this channel to learn and chill
We love having you here! Thanks for watching
Here before this man becomes a viral meme
The stuff that came out in the first clip were baby wipes and thats exactly why it says not to flush them..after the toilet paper shortages recently there is going to be alot more of that happening.they put that stuff on the package for a reason
I think he nailed it on the head with the mechanic one. 😂
I dont know anything about plumbing but your videos are just so entertaining, just had to watch em all
New sub. I just know one day I’m gonna need ur intelligence on plumbing. Ur videos also crack me up 😂. Good stuff
Those guys are hero’s from a he first clip
I like how you don’t act like a know it all.
I was cleaning this pipe thoroughly once, the customer was very satisfied. 9 months later she calls me ant tells me it's a boy 🤷🏼♂️
this one is really good lmao
This is really good content. Having fun while learning tips and tricks from professional plumber. Next level of reaction video.
Wasn't a homeowner at the time but as a renter i learned how to fix plumbing issues and reported them to my landlord he ended up hiring me as a handyman anytime his normal guy couldnt make it. usually paid my rent every month with just a few hours of work for him. All thanks to you and guys like you!
All those things you said were true about hvac techs lol the most overcharged trade brother lol. And here in Miami HVAC is fairly important
I'm Hvac and think we overcharge too, but there's a good reason. I did installs and they're pretty cruel to the body. 130°F in an attic for 6 hrs can kill you if your not prepared, but the servicing side can be a little on the finessing side. Here in Phoenix, anyone will pay whatever amount to get their A/c to work when its 115°f daily.
@@cafenightster4548 exactly man, I used to have all trades in house but as of covid my HVAC techs are sub contract i.e. $200 to come and diagnose a fridge 😆 finesse is an understatement, I charge $150 for the diagnostic so he had to come down.
Also here in Miami these are mostly water source heat pumps in an AC closet above the water heater. Install takes about 4 hours (removal and disposal of old unit) I pay $400-$500 to my techs for this. I've had guys tell me they would do it for $800 lol how much would I have to charge the customer 😅
@@cafenightster4548 and not for nothing, it's the one trade that has the most complications. I've seen an AC have trouble because the wire harness was faulty and needed tl be replaced. When changing the board and thermostat (bracket and all) didn't work we tried changing out the harness. I respect the trade. I guess maybe I should have studied it instead lol 👀
I can’t stand watchers!! Especially when it’s a Tenant over your shoulder....
Oh, I love it. I like to show off my tradescraft lol
I always assumed it was awkward to just sit over someone's shoulder when they work on something at my place, but I do at the end like them to do a quick show and tell of the service
I've always heard if you don't like people watching you have something to hide lol. Not saying you personally do just a saying. I do like to watch because I can pick up on things really quick so if it's something small I don't have to call someone if it happens again. But I always ask anyways if they care if I watch that way at least it won't be awkward for them.
@peroh right? Other people have jobs they have to do in front of customers all the time. They're not special lol they can be watched and you are in my home too I've heard of people stealing stuff as well so there's that.
Right its weird, he/she just stands there and watches you lmao. Like say something, talk to me
Yumm nacho cheese I have chips 12:20
As a plumber when a whole house is stopped up I love unscrewing a cleanout in the front yard and seeing that.... Usually means an easy clean out with a drain king
Absolutely the over the shoulder moments but I agree, I do like to teach people how to fix their issues especially if I don’t wanna come back to the problem and it’s something they feel confident in and can take care of it themselves.
