- Blocked Drain.
One of those days when the jet gets stuck.
I was able to clear the drain and remove the tree roots. A BIG, Paper Bark Tree near by is possibly the culprit. The big roots were like pieces of bone.

R.I.P Mr. Toad... It's a shame the Penetrator Toad had to witness that.. One hell of a video though, Gavin! I tried watching a few of that Drain Addicts videos but they just failed in comparison. Just doesn't have your Gusto lol Keep up the amazing work!
🐸 Just like Toad, I was on the edge of my seat with this one!
It had everything: Death, tension, drama, stuck jetter, ROOTS & a happy ending.
The only thing missing . . .
A Pile of S I-I I T ! 🙂
Thanks to you and Toad for a riveting video. 👍
🐸 thank you 😊 as always 🐸
Think he’s also bleeding.....battle scars from the fight
Excellent rescue mission. I wasn’t sure if you were going to be successful. But after seeing this mess erased, anything that comes along you can correct. Amazing! Cheers mate! 🇦🇺🙂👍🇺🇸
Thank you 😊
It was a stressful job and I’m glad I was able to free the nozzle and clear the drain in the end.
@@penetratorblockeddrains ¿the 2 frogs died?
The long + stormwater videos are my favorites 💓
Thank you 😊
Next one sewer then 2 x long stormwater coming your way so enjoy!
@@penetratorblockeddrains Yeah thnx mate, actually iv also figured out mostly people on RUclips likes to watch 1hr+ shows.
Good Wednesday evening to you sir and your family from Wellington Somerset in the UK
Tough one! Well done!! Soon as I heard the nozzle fall silent that short distance in I started holding my breath for you mate!
My mind always goes back to the 2x4 demonstrations when they cut through the board in about 15 seconds and we all marvel.... WHERE IS THAT NOZZLE IN THE FIELD?!!? They never seem to translate from demo to field with quite the same efficiency.... Great job, great video! Thanks!!!
Goodness, you must have been exhausted after that battle! I was just watching.
It was a battle!!! Not all drains a walk in the park. You can’t see it in the video. Some of roots where like pieces of bone!
Nejlepší byl ten kohout ve 13:34 😂😂🤣🐓
Gavin, that was a large number of roots! Great work! 👍🧤😄
They where like pieces of bone those hard bits.
Thank you 😊
You need one of those whizz-bang heads that Drain Addict uses, that can cut through plywood :)
The nozzle I use cuts a hole through 4x4 fence post as I’ve tested it at home. The nozzle is fine. It was just unlucky it got stuck coming back for some reason. It felt like the roots tangled heavily around the nozzle then got stuck in the section I had to cut first. Once the nozzle was back out did you see how easy it cut the roots then! Those roots where like pieces of bone! Even the drain addict gets nozzles stuck. It it happens clearing drains.
Glad you knew how to rescue the penetrator
Got lucky lol
Congratulations.you have the patience of Job. Cheers mate! 🇳🇿😊👍🇺🇸
Thank you 😊
Seems like the toad was trying to send you a signal to warn you that once something goes in that pipe, it really, really doesn't want to come back out!
From the camera images the roots would be a good candidate for the a strong flex shaft machine. The Picote’s Super Midi and up with some premium chains on it should tear those roots up. I know you shouldn’t use the premium chains in plastic piping but it would do.
So that reverse cutter is. Going to become your best friend it’s the best head you can get!
Considering it has no lips lol mate cheers for across the pond!
I found another rabbit hole in youtube after watching cows get their nails clean
You are very passionate about your work
another thing you could use to unblock tiny jet holes is an ear-ring. i keep one in the car to clear window-washer holes (and point them in the right direction)
Awesome job, love the cool demeanor.. have a great day. 👍
Thank you 😊
That lonely toad might be Toads long lost cousin.🤭😲
Don't you know assumption is the mother of all stuff ups? :) Also, sometime less is more, maybe should have started with a small penetrator nozzle and save you the hassle of getting the big one stuck. And for those outside of Australia that are shocked by the toad in the pipe, it's OK, it was a Cane toad and they are a invasive pest. It's sort of an unwritten rule that it's every Aussies duty to dispose of Cane Toads if we encounter them, the Penetrator was just doing his bit for Australia. Thank you, Penetrator. :)
Thank you 😊
Yes the nozzle will get stuck from time to time.
Those roots where hard like bone and I’m not sure a little penetrator would of got them. But next time it won’t hurt trying :)
I’ve also went and bought an extension for the lance gun as I feel that would of also got the nozzle out.
Same in Florida! If you see a cane toad, kill it
That was a nice fight you had to get those roots out.
It was a fight. Just want you want on a Friday arvo lol
That was a real mess of roots,
They were like pieces of bone
Tough one! Thought that job would be a quickie, but oh-no! Never assume.
Man that sure made you work for that!
Hi enjoy your videos. So glad we haven't got smelly-vision!!
Thank you 😊
Great Ingenuity with the screw on heads instead of the quick release. I guess y’all got tired of rescuing heads that got lost in the pipes because of the release catches on a root or something.👍🏻😎
I still have a couple of quick release. I did lose the forward shooter down a down under a bathroom and it did take some time to get out 😬
Awesomeness overload channel
Thank you 😊
Wow! We have a winner.......
Lots of roots there. Yes some looked like bones or a snake
No snake 😂 but hard like bone. Have not seen roots that hard for some time. Big paper bark tree near by.
british need a truck addict channel to solve the crisis
You have mastered the art of letting the nozzle do its job. Slamming and ramming is not always the answer. Super job as always. Also have you considered having your jetter supplier build you a high pressure "Y" for cases like this, where you could have both reels connected and easily run one or the other without needing to go back to the trailer? Time = $$$$. Simple male quick coupler into a "Y" with 2 short-length hoses and female couplers on them. You maintain control of the reel you choose with its own ball valve. It would mean 2 trips to the trailer not 6 or 8...just a thought.
Thank you o
Not a bad idea. I might chat to blokes that service my machine about that
16:52 these bunch of roots are impressive
Thank you 😊
You have a LOT to learn yet
@stephentootle6388 😎
I think i lost 20 pounds just watching you work!
13:35 🐓🐔 what was that 😂?
Always wondered when you run into some many drain lines blocked with tree roots like this, why not use an auger with a root cutter instead of the water jets?
Someone needs a DC43
Good afternoon Gavin.
Being from Illinois we drive on the opposite side of the road and every now and then when I’m watching,
Your videos I see you driving on the opposite side from us and I catch myself say get over your gonna get hit!
I will catch on soon 🤣👍🏼❤️
Good Morning 😊
It's disturbing, isn't it? I know they drive on the left side of the road and it's fine, but it looks so wrong to me.
whats with the huge chunk of tyre shredding iron?
Never saw you get a stuck before that's why you carry two of them huh
It happens and it’s a terrible feeling
I'm a big fan of drain addict.. then I saw you on that I start watching your RUclips channel...but You got to find a better way.. to save the drain creatures like the frogs and lizards.. we are intelligent human beings.. frogs are just trying to live.. that frog wasn't too far up there you could have used a stick or something to pull him out but I guess that was too much trouble for you.. drain addict would have found a way..😢
0:18 Why are you driving on the wrong side of the road??
Lol jkjk
Hi I have an idea for a nozzle that hopefully wouldn’t tend to get stuck, maybe someone has already done it but basically it consists of a penetrator nozel with a ring around it that’s free to rotate with 4 holes drilled in it 45 degrees back (to provide thrust) and 45 degrees from right angles (to rotate the ring and act as a root cutter) I do not know if there would be enough flow to create the pressure needed but feel free to try it.
Drain is happy, toad is happy! :)
Wouldn't the Angry Bee (dual nozzle) take care of those clumps of roots?
I haven’t heard of that nozzle..
@@penetratorblockeddrains drain addict has one
What's the brown thing on the curb above the opening?
maybe you need the big dc like drain addict
I know a guy that sells those around my area, watches me on you tube. So I’ve been to check them out and compare. A bit bigger than what I have. Also I was clearing 90mm pipe and you can normally find this pipe squashed in sections.
It sucks but they get stuck from time to time.
@@penetratorblockeddrains you do an amazing job and love your videos
Thank you 😊
Btw I want to try a DC hahaha
New to channel. Why don’t you have a cutting rotor to cut roots? Love the content.
Thank you 😊 for watching.
I use a hydro Jetter for cutting roots etc.
We call an auger an eel over here. I have one of those but it doesn’t really get used
What is the purpose the angle iron
Great vid mate but it is not clear how you retrieved the nozzle, did you push it through to the grid at the downpipe at the house?
Thanks mate.
I should of recorded it. I was able to free the nozzle and get it to an area I could dig it up. Unscrew the nozzle and just pull the hose out. I would love to say it will never happen again lol. But next time it does I will record it.
what are the adjustable wrenches you are using to swap attachments?
Shifters
Would that dirt be from where you had to dig the penetrator out? Did you repair the drain pipe?
Dirt already in the line and yes did repair
Oh no it wasn't toads relative was it?
He was on site to give the heads up.. but sometimes they don’t listen…
Sadly Not the kind of toad in the hole I like for breakfast. R.I.P. toad.
I think Aussies only know what a toad 🐸 in the hole is 😂
top vid can you do some vids with out cuting
Probably end up to long and boring
Ahh ! i see you changed the battery for the jetpump engine? last few vids its been a bit of a struggle to start it i reckon lol
No battery change.
@@penetratorblockeddrains fantastic job on those roots BTW
Thank you 😊 they where a tough bunch
❤👍🏽❤
OMG!!!!!!! O-O
PS: Americans call it a rotor rooter. An auger that cuts through all those roots
May be a bit too radical if there is another hose in it already. It could shred that as well - and cutting the hose is the last option.
toad go splat inside pipe?
Is a toad in your drain like having a frog in your throat
Are you and Ollie friends? Or do you both just have inanimate objects as pets? Lol
We live in different states..
Probably both a little crazy thou lol
@@penetratorblockeddrains ehh. Aren’t we all! I enjoy the videos! Before I realized it was different channels I would tell you and Ollie apart by the arm tattoos ❤️
that nozel is of a bad design need to be re-engineered
Not a fan of it
Get rid of that tree.
Not sure why you have that frog with you. It feel like it is forced. It is more natural with the other guy 🤷♂️
I understand. But I see so many toads in drains and find little thing I thought it would neat to collect them
Why don’t we get to see what ur doing if that’s the way u work l am not going to watchlwill go back to watch ollie
Thanks for watching this video at least.
Sometimes I forget to record and it was rough day with the rain and nozzle stuck.
Always trying to improve :)
