How To Run a Pipe Under a Slab or Sidewalk With a Garden Hose
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 мар 2021
- PLEASE READ: This sums up the process on how to get the pipe line under the slab. Keep in mind I ran my pipe as close as possible to the slab. I backfilled the hole back in after I made the video so the ground would have support. You must re fill the hole to do this correctly. If you don’t, you run the risk of the concrete cracking over time. You can also dig your side holes much deeper and run the pipe under the slab at a deeper level and this will allow the concrete to bear on the soil below without having an air gap. Backfilling or refilling the hole is recommended in both scenarios.

Great video. Simple. To the point. No extra useless details like what time you woke up to get started, how your neighbor lost his job, how many dogs you own and the cat that lives across the street. 😳😂. Just the facts. Thanks man. Keep it up
I was hoping to get a history of concrete. The ancient Romans used it, you know.
After clicking "read more", I feel like you've wasted my time with your rambling comment.
@@jschlaud6 Glad to help!
Personally, I would have liked to have known when he took a dump. Either morning or evening or sometime in between.

I am 61 years old and ran a pvc pipe under my sidewalk. It took you about a minute and a half. It took me about 45 minutes and I was covered in mud. Ha! Wish I would have seen your video first....but I am feeling very accomplished!
Rock is going to be harder but I’ve seen it done
Just did this today and it was exactly as easy as it looks. Thank you! (I also cut the pipe at a 45-degree angle to make it easier to poke through.)
The correct way is to bust up the concrete then charge the customer 3x extra so says my local contractors
Whoa! I learned something new at the age of 71! Thanks for the tip.
For many of us with existing plants on both or either sides shooting water can be a mess. Far neater is to simply take a short section of pvc pipe, cut it on a diagonal (like a hypodermic needle that's on a slant and hollow inside) and then push the pipe through a few inches at a time, pull the pipe out with the dirt inside, then take a smaller in diameter metal rod and push it through the pipe to knock out the dirt, then reinsert the pipe again. This eliminates the mess and clean up of mud.
I guess you could attach a vacuum to the end and if the soil is soft enough it would suck it clear.
That's what shop vacs are for.
Will try this method first as it seems easier without needing water. But the method in the video was so damn quick! Excited to try both methods.
Cool trick. Cut The tip at a 45 degree angle for less resistance
Easy, breezy! My husband is going to hate you for showing me new tips and tricks to dig up our new lawn. haha
This helped me so much. I helped my Mom with similar irrigation. She has a grape vine next to concrete. This saved the day. The roots under the concrete were impossible to get around without the video. Thank you awesome job
That was actually pretty clever and I was surprised how quickly you got it through. Not sure how it would work at my place as the dirt is hard as a rock but great demonstration non the less. Will definitely keep this in mind in future
Super! This is about the fifth video I've watched. The others required deep trenching, power washers, and even a special (high cost?) ramming device. Yours? The length pipe going under the sidewalk, and a foot of duct tape! Doesn't get better or easier then that.
When I build my new home I placed heavy duty 90mm PVC pipes every 5 metres under all driveways , foot paths and garden edges.
Cut the tip of the pipe at an angle to create a sharp point would help in harder soil
@@wreckitbmx2698 only one prison reference. Apparently, "someone" has done time he big house 🤭
Hahahaaha
A perfect solution on what I needed, thanks!! Greetings from Mexico.
Great method! It went easier than I thought it would at the beginning. 👍🏻
Great idea, you explained & showed the process like a plumbing Teacher. 👌👍🤣
Water is a great use for things that are needed to be done in the way you have shown the comparative difference. That's awesome!

Worked like a charm! Thank you for the awesome step by step video. So easy!
Thanks for the useful demo. It worked for me getting drip hose under a sidewalk.
Great idea! I've used a similar concept to sink copper pipe into the ground for use as an RF ground for radio operations.
Worked perfectly for me! Such an easy solution. Thank you for the video
You just saved me a bunch of time and fittings. Thanks!!
"Thanks for making this video and posting; much appreciated." -Tom
Great video. Just what I needed. So much better than the "shovel under the concrete" method. Thanks!
OMG thank you so much!! I was so dreading having to do this this weekend! You saved me so much needless work! thumbs def up!!
Great job and a great way to save the concrete.
Awesome! efficient and least invasive option, great tip. Thank you
Awesome technique. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing this awesome method.
Very helpful - a nice technique, well thought out.
I'm sorry but you are AWESOME !! Thank you! I was getting so frustrated as a beginner at this kind of stuff and your technique and video made it so simple and easy!
Perfect timing, was looking at doing this this summer for a yard project. Nice!
That was very clever, well done
I need to do this. Thanks for the lesson!
That's was awesome! Thanks for sharing your knowledge..
Thx for showing! Ignore those know-it-alls and keep up the good work 👍🏼
Thanks heaps I was thinking that’d be the best way to do it but it’s good seeing it.
Well done! Thanks for sharing!
Very helpful to my project today! 👍
Don't know if I will ever need it but it is good to know.
you're so smart! Thank you for that spectacular idea!!
Great job!
The best video I have ever seen. Very valuable information.
Thanks a bunch!
Soooo smart . Great job man .
Thanks, Mr. Handy man 👍
Nicely done
I've had my garden tap on the wrong side of my sidewalk for years, thanks for showing a great way to fix that with minimal yard damage!
By tap, do you mean the hose spigot or the electrical box?
A garden tap is a spigot
Very good - You made that look easy - Simple and effective 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Good job.
Timely video, got a project where I need to do this...
Thanks - it worked just like you showed me
Going to give it a try tomorrow for a new install. Wish me luck lol
You are the absolute best. Thanks! Liked and subscribed!
I’ve always the lead end into a point. Helps move it along and the angle helps it pass any obstacles without the blunt end. 👍🏾
Thanks,very helpful, I subscribed 👍
I needed to run irrigation under my driveway, so I found a fat crack in the cement, rented a cement saw, and voila! Irrigation under my driveway and a shiny new patch of cement where the ugly crack used to be.
Great tip
Worked like a charm through clay soil. I paid 11.00 for pvc and adapter for my hose at hardware store.
Thank you. I now know what to do.
That doesn't work in Texas
Well done
Great video!
Cool idea!
Dang! Well done!
Big thumbs up 👍 thank you
This was extremely exciting
Technically it was boring ;-)
Hahahahahah
Great method but this will only work if there is no gravel under sidewalk. If that's the case , pound some rebar through or use a long flex bit then tape pvc to it and pull.
Outstanding!
Also helps to cut the pipe like a syringe to help it go through
Very useful thanks
I've got one of these but the pool, and always wondered how this worked; was just getting that again two days ago when I had to go turn off the generator.
Didn’t need this info, but I like it!
Like and subscribe! Good luck getting to 100K!
Thanks so much!!!
Like it.
Work smarter not harder.
Would we need to worry about trying to backfill the hole or space under the sidewalk which was created by removing the dirt?
That was epic!
I dont know if I will ever do this but that was great. I'm going to subscribe just to learn new things.
Fantastic!
Great method! Beats renting an air compressor and torpedo.
great tip!!! tx!!
Thank you! Hopefully this will work so I can save money having to buy a flex drill bit
Great Job. now my wife said get out there and fix her a water tap closer to our garden,
Awesome!!!!
Ok. Thanks
That's nuts! I was wondering how to do that for a long time. I need to run a low voltage line. Thanks very much!!
I know, right? I need to make a hole under a 2 meters wide concrete wall, and start a new life on the other side!
@@ThePhobosAnomally lol!
Gawd that went thru fast!
You can also do the same thing and use schedule 80 and use that for conduit
useful and very interesting video!! Thanks for uplaoding and sharing. Question - I agree about backfilling, but how do you get the dirt right into the middle underneath the path for support. That is the one thing that makes me feel uneasy about doing this.
Brilliant.
And you did it all with one hand...lol
awesome video, great content for the unskilled while not wasting time. thank you. What was that black pipe, should that be used running under ground about 50 feet to a garden? Thanks again
Excellent vid. Good thing IMO, would have been to use pvc pipe as a sleeve instead of pulling it out.
Awesome. Will definitely use this in the Spring. Question... Any concerns or ideas about the support under the sidewalk and cracking? Thanks
Very smart.
Like a BOSS!!! Worked for me...Wait till my wife gets the bill!!! LOL...
Terrific!
Great video! I have to run a 4 inch schedule 40 under my sidewalk just like yours for sump pump discharge line. Any ideas on if this same method will work or what to tweak for the biggler hole? I have a pressure washer too Thx!!

Kick ass, dude. Thank you for an excellent all business easy how to!!! Man I would’ve dug a cave out without this video! Hahaha! 🫶🏼🤘🏼
Great job……
Nice
