As soon as we finished this job, Jem and Jenny informed the landlord of the poor condition of this manhole and we believe he has undertaken the works ☺
my biggest nightmare, falling head first into that thing
That is a dangerous man hole. Good video
Hallo aus Deutschland! Schaue jede eurer Videos! Macht weiter so👍
Eure plunscher sind das eigenbauten oder gibt es so was in eurer Umgebung zu kaufen????
Yeah, you could dump your Mother in Law down that one!! Great video, Jem with his "Foreman Hard Hat" and Andy, whistling thru the gagging, perfect way to finish my Friday! Thanks Gentlemen for the laughs, as usual, perfect!! And thank you Jenny, for the subtitles, lol!! 😄👀🏳️🌈
Andy should produce top 10 whistling hits 👍 jem are you missing the aussie sun mate it’s starting to warm up ☀️ ☀️ great video guys stay safe
That hole was so deep you could see Ollie and Ratty.
But was there corn?
Drain addict, hehehe... thank you...
All good 👍
😂😂😂😂😂
Careful Andy! Now Jem has a hard hat he's only one step away from getting a clip board and following you around doing efficiency studies and reports! 🤣
Give me another five years at least 😁😞😞
😄
Watching these videos makes me wanna start working in drainage
Cool Chris 💪💪
This sewage pit is something straight out of Tom and Jerry. I'm shocked that something like this passed inspection, assuming an inspection was indeed conducted. Fine work as always, fellas.
Thanks 👍👍
It’s not a sewage pit, it’s a shit pit!!!
I would go for three faults with it, no rungs inside so anyone falling in can't climb out, the lid is too lightweight for an area with vehicle traffic and the lid isn't secure enough that casual fiddling can expose a deep pit. Maybe I'm missing a requirement for deep drain markings on the lid or outside the drain as well.
Casual fiddling would be an additional fine as well!
Yup... Even though its a direct drop that very likely would come under confines spaces regs due to gasses ect !
Lid would need replaced with a techno cover which is a lockable cover def a confined space
best thing to watch after an hospital appointment ngl
Jens commentary is hilarious on this one 😂
She’s on form 😁
The manhole has no steps to get in or out great job guys tks for upload
Always appreciate Jem's history lessons during the videos..... that must have been quite an ritzy area when those were all single family homes
Thanks Chris 😁😁😁
The green tree at 2:40 is a Myrtlewood. It's a member of the Laurel family, but VERY RARE to be growing in the UK. That has to be VERY WET soil. They grow on the banks of the Rogue River in Oregon USA natively. People try to get them to grow everywhere because the leaves smell of mixed sweet spices. My channel has several videos documenting that tree. It's a VERY expensive tree when it gets to merchantable size. I mean BIG money. Our state even has special rules for harvesting it because it's an amazing watershed tree then helps to clean and purify water.
Probably brought back by a Liverpool trader many years ago. It rains a lot on the west coast of england (and scotland)
Outstanding
Great comment and info thanks 👍👍
On dark, rainy days like y'all are having, I thoroughly enjoy staying home, lighting my candles and streaming movies while snacking. I hate getting out in the rain, ugh!
It's interesting how many U.K. sewer systems (drop pipes, soil pipes, gully's) are located outside the house or on the outside of the house. Everything over here in Canada is buried underground with very few access points. All drop/soil pipes are inside the house inside a "wet wall" and connect directly into the mains. If it wasn't like that here all the sewer pipes would freeze in the winter when it regularly hits -10 to -30 celcius.
Thanks for sharing info 👍👍 very interesting
Same in the Netherlands; all these outside pipes would be unthinkable, only rainwater drainage goes on the outside.
It’s usually because our sewer system is older than the houses attached to them. Because of their age, our sewers need more maintenance than most, so it’s easier to have access outside the houses so we aren’t having to remove walls to fix problems. Canadian houses, newer builds, newer sewer systems, less likelihood of problems.
@@realburglazofficial2613 It's as you said, the Georgian/Victorian era houses were built before toilets were common, but the pipes being on the outside of the building is because of cost, not because of ease of access.
To properly internally plumb one of those houses, you'd have to tear out large sections of walls, floors and ceilings to get access to the sub floors and wall space. Then there's the additional risk of having to modify the structure of the house if beams block pipe paths, such construction can quickly run into the tens of thousands of dollars. Drilling a hole in the side of the house and running pipe externally is far cheaper and less invasive when retrofitting an existing building.
@@GGigabiteM also, Victorian era houses had flushing toilets on the outside, usually at the bottom of the yard. So a lot of the manholes are probably the original site of the toilet. Newer built houses have ‘built for purpose’ complete sewer systems, whereas in a lot of cities in the UK there are many different sewer systems from different decades tacked on to each other.
Damn!! Thats a death trap!! Crazy deep
I hope they left a cone on top till it gets repaired accident waiting to happen
The fact that there're no rungs built in the wall of this manhole is very concerning. Unless it's too small, then it either should've been built bigger or not at all.
@@issadraco532 Hey, you saying " very very young child or a really old person"' don't matter and are not worthy of protection from hazards like that?
Very inadequate cover for a start... a car wheel over it and it cracks. Next someone falls in.
Fall down that and you would break 2 legs... and so your escape plan fails.
@@issadraco532 Firstly the cover was very close to giving way due to corrosion. Second it was a very lightweight cover which if disturbed by a wheel could have partly collapesd. Thirdly I doubt if you would go to such crazy lengths to be try and be right about something if a child of yours had lifted the lid out of curiosity and fallen in. I also doubt that you would be so clever if you were the owner of such a cover when a child or anyone had slashed their ankle in the dark on your badly maintained cover that had not needed to be replaced because you are NEVER wrong about anything.
Love waking up on a Saturday with a new video from Drain Unblockers
Thanks Geoff 👍
I just love your videos! Especially your sense of humor & camaraderie. Never a dull moment with you three or two or one.
GlD you enjoy Dan and thanks for comment 👍👍
The first time I went up a ladder, it was down a well.
Great job guys, well done Jenny, hope you didn't get wet working on the video.
The drought is so bad here in Southern California that it’s very nice just watching the rain. The drain unclogging is a bonus.
👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching
Brilliant video as always and the light hearted banter is what I look forward to and you guys always make it interesting keep them coming
Will do Jon

Couldnt believe there were no rungs in that man hole and that lid was like a biscuit tin lid lol..very dangerous all of it..great vid tho you guys are great entertainment :)
Love when you work with Andy.....
Glad you enjoy and thanks for watching Cecilia 👍
Andy you better listen to Gem!! He is much wiser than you can even imagine!! Gem! Saves the day with the BIG Plunger!! Sometimes bigger is better!! Stay safe my friends.🤓👍🤓👍Randy.
😁😁😁
Good job jem and andy
Great video👍
You must love the rain cleaning your work-wear and equipment and the site you're working in.
It’s hilarious how these two guys interact . But good lord the manhole is deep.😎
Glad you enjoy Tracy 👍👍👍
Get well soon jem 1 jetter
Nice one 👍Andy thanks lads
Thanks Davy 👍👍
My pet conure heard you whistling and now won’t stop. Months of trying to teach her to say anything at all I watch a plumbing video and she won’t shut up ! Gee thanks guys roflmao ! Love your videos always .
Isn't there code that requires rungs, as it is so deep?
Nice work.
That's mad how deep that drain is, as well as how flimsy, and easily movable the lid is. Might have to start paying more attention, to where I'm putting my feet.
Little tip: if you can, put your waterproof trousers, over the top of your wellies. I find the rain runs inside your boots otherwise.
😁👍👍
Firm handshakes for Jetter 1 and Jetter 2 o7
great video as usual guys ....seems like a miserable job on a miserable day .....
One of my friends had a cold like yours and it took him nearly 3 weeks to get rid of it, it didn’t help that he had tuberculosis when he was a kid. Hope you feel better soon
Thanks Sophie on the mend just blocked up now 👍🤧🤧
As ever Mersey Rod take their duty of care to residents owners landlords and the public seriously. Other companies should take note Jem Jenny Andy and Jo are the gold standard. Hope jetter 2gets trees and shrubbery book for Xmas too.
Great comment Ruth
Going back out Monday to check if landlord sorted manhole
things like that play on my mind 😞👍
Nice plant knowledge
😁😁👍🌲🌲
Great job again certainly was a deep chamber
Glad you enjoyed Craig 👍
Is that liquid sunshine I see falling from the sky Jem? lol Good content guys. 43F and rainy in Ohio, USA too. Winter is coming. I will need a strong, high gravity ale to combat it, like a Fuller's, Sam Smiths, or Moor Imperial Entanglement. lol
Thanks for watching enjoy the ❄️❄️❄️
Great job lads. Please give us some warning before Andy whistles, nearly blew my eardrums! 🙉🤣🤣🤣
Which van are you going to equip with a hoist to remove friends (or their clients) that have fallen down that inverted tower? No way out, fragile cover and a rusty overgrown staple instead of a proper frame at the top! My Safety Elf was having a field day! (And I only know what Mersey Rod have shown me!)
Incidentally, thank you all for your banter and good humour. It makes watching and listening a joy!
Mainly clients ha. Only joking 😁😁😁
Thanks for comment 👍👍
What you guys need there is a freaking water hose that has pressure on it here at my house in kentucky we have 50 psi on the water lines so if you need to wash something you can and we all have pressure washers with 6000 psi on them to clean the cars and the house
16:10 New brush might be in order :D
25:30 Dont want to sound horrible here but its probrably better unblocking drains in the rain when theres plenty of water moving. Also helps with the clean up aswell, gives the area an extra rinse.
I’ll invest in new brush in the New Year 😁😁
Was that two jobs? The drain in the back of the house was for rain water or sewage? I’ve never seen a sewage pipe dump out like that
I notice very fine workmanship and unusually shaped blocks in the deep drain basin, but no built in steel grab bars to exit. 6:50
they are precast sections much the same as the plastic chambers just placed one on top of another
Is it so deep because all those houses look like they'v got basements ???? Although it looks in very good condition as the houses are old ??? Thanks guys great job 😄 love the banter xx
Thanks Claire for comment 👍👍👍
It’s certainly a lot newer than the houses. The houses look Victorian and drain shafts built at that time would have been brick lined ,not concrete lined.
Tell your man that if he puts his waterproof trousers over his boots they won't fill up with water
I thought he wore it like that so his socks would get wet so he felt it was a normal good day
Those Camilla are about to bloom by different varieties can bloom from early fall to the spring time.
Lovely shrub 👍👍
The dry puking made me laugh and subscribe as well for good measure. 😁
I like these videos before I've even watched them, I love this sh!t.
Hey Guys, Does It Ever "NOT" Rain When You Guys Are Working? LOL, Great Job!!!
Singing in the rain Happy again ! Andy I'm sorry i have a heck of a time understanding what you are saying We Yanks speak a different English language LOL
Happy Andy 👍
Andy throws the disinfectant at Jem lol unintentionally of course.🙄😅
It will funny to see how many people catch the Laurel and Hardy reference...... the group that will is sadly getting smaller every day
:)
I got it. 😊 Steve Coogan was brilliant in the recent film.
👍
The last time I saw a manhole that deep was when John Barrowman bent over infront of me at a panto!
Handy Andy
Very handy Andy 😁👍
I had a tenant once who kept flushing the “disposable “ diapers down the toilet… three overflows and she wasn’t a tenant anymore.. Jem ..the plunger 👑 king!
The manhole in my front garden is deeper than that by a fair bit but it has a sturdy cover and has a ladder embedded in the wall.
So you found one of the fabled man holes built by the subterranean dwarf lords.
Andy is not useless ! He just requires a bit more training like the rest of us. The bride is still training me after 48 years, she says I'm halfway through ?✌❤ Bob
Bob I guess your job to do list is very long ha 😁 but noway compares to mine 😁😁😁😁
Loads of disinfectant, yeah. What size was the 2nd (Blue rod) plunger?
6 inch
150 mm 👍👍
Aw heck, both of yall stay put...I'LL GO GET IT, ha!
As always 😁😁👍
I have tied my pool waste into my sanitary sewer so I can give that line a good flushing every once in a while... during winter months I just fill all my sinks and tub and let them drain all at once.
A hello from the Toon.
Hello mate 👍
Is it normal for sewers in England to be a combination of sewage and stormwater?
Was wondering: with a hole this deep, and you leaning into this, isn’t there a chance of dangerous fumes like methane (aside from the usual stench)?
😍 Jem
Respectfully of course.
Is that the famous brush that is everlasting ??? You know the that's had 18 new heads and and 12 new handles....
+ Was anyone else expecting the knights who say "NI" to make an appearance ? 😀
Must be only fools and horses 😁😁😁 Trigger
@@jetter1jem955 Yeah it could be.......
Thanks Dave 😉
hi guys iam new to your channel been looking at some of your past videos your work rate is amazing and what a fantastic job you all do but do you know what keeps this going your scouse humour best in the world brillient lads .
Thanks for watching mate
Glad your enjoying 👍👍
@@jetter1jem955 iam hooked
The hardhat is a great look!
Cool ha 👍👍👍
it must be bad when the two experts says it smells , i’m sure i would have been sick
Not Frist thing in the morning after been on the piss lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s a huge cone .😳😳😳
👍
It would be nice if the properties weren’t so cluttered and so poorly kept. But you men do such a great job!
There is a lot of rundown real estate in British cities. The drainage of the houses on the outside is very strange.
this thick accent makes it sound like theyre speaking a different language its wild
Loving the sarky comments during the video!
