    10/10 on the Willy Wonka Chocolate River scale. Plus a point for some great roots. Glad to see you use the knee pad. You’ll miss your knees when you get older.

    Looks like the best bet long term is replace the whole system. Very seldom do you have a system that you work so much on but aren’t successful in completely clearing it. It’s in really rough shape, with all the squashed pipe, breaks, roots, and lack of water pressure. You worked hard to get done what you’ve could.

    Hi Gavin. Absolutely great to see the gang back. I think that by watching the great drain cleaning fraternity on RUclips, we should all have learned by now NOT to use storm flex or agi pipe in our gardens especially if you are going to plant those kind of trees, unless you are prepared with an appropriately sized bank account to cope with the consequences. No one can say that you didn't give it your best try. Would be a good job to replace it for someone, but oh that digging. All the best and love to see the guys on duty again. Sue, mum from Adelaide, South Australia 🇦🇺.

    Happy to see you brought the managers arouind with you to back up your findings. Great root work. It is sad that so many people use that corrugated piping for such long stretches that have heavy amounts of trees etc near them. Maybe limiting the amount of piping that goes under the pavement would helps some. Let us know if you are told what they end up doing. It's a very complicated case.

    Hello Gavin. Good job, you put a lot of effort in that.
    I have a question: I wonder what people should do as regular maintenance to keep their drains clean???
    Of course, regular cleaning of down spouts is a must and also using good pipes that cannot be crushed or pushed down is also a must.
    If the pipes are easily crushed or pushed down roots will get in and ruin things.

  • @WreckDiver99

    In the US, I have never seen Ag pipe used for gutter drainage. Here it's used for foundation perimeter drainage and the intended agricultural application. Here in Ohio, USA, downspouts are usually directed into Schedule 20 PVC 4" pipe. It can still get squashed or deformed as you have shown in past content, but it's a little more robust than Ag pipe. IMHO

    So I have been noticing a theme for most of your videos and that is low water pressure. That being said I am confused about why you don't have a larger supply on board that is being refilled by the client while you are on-site instead of a small tank that is constantly running out. I'm guessing you are using around 100 gallons or less?
