    Perfection. Toss in a bottle of the cheapest liquid dish soap you can find into your fitting box. Works amazing to lubricate the pipe for the fernco fittings and will not deteriorate the rubber.

    @oldtimefarmboy617 2 года назад +2

    This is just one of those things where there is no good way to get it fixed. The best way would be to dig it all up and replace it with schedule 40 PVC (at the minimum) all glued up, properly pitched, and allowed to set dry long enough for the glue to cure and then bury it. Now it is just get things put back together good enough to work and last a few more years. Homeowner should start socking away money until the good fix can be afforded.

    • @Michelselle
      @Michelselle 2 года назад +3

      I noted he doesn't always do the jamming thing, but with the clay, mud, and dirt, it may be the only way to do it without using an excessive amount of water. He also doesn't know it there is a break in the pipe or if it is just mud so it takes a bit more work. Just my 2 cents. :)

    I've watched enough of your fun videos to wonder why the contractors down there use such thin pipe for these storm drains. The stuff looks eggshell thin. I mean it's a good thing for you and your fellow cleaners. Good job security, but the contractors just come off cheap and ends up causing the homeowners trouble they wouldn't necessarily have with a more robust pipe, less likely to crack or on the curb collapse if driven over.

    Personally, I would have dug out all of that pipe from the downspout to the part where you cut it, re- engineered it by laying new pipe from downspout down with fewer bends and making the angles more sweeping and free flowing. As it is now, looks like it will be likely to collect more crud and be even harder to clean out. Great work with the 22.5 and 12.5 though and getting it to line up well

    Could've been fixed ages ago before the rain..... Yes, that's true, unfortunately, sometimes the problems don't appear as intense until the rain comes and you see where the problem is. Like spraying soapy water on gas fittings or bicycle tyre tubes under water to see if there are any leaks to fix. That's why professionals like yourself will always be in business as one day, everything is fine and fair weather, the next it buckets down and a blockage becomes highlighted. Love your work, videos are great, although I think your little offsiders need a kick up the pants to help more, or bring in some more.
