Ever since leo joined the team (best cameraman/editor for sure) i like the fact he points the camera properly at what is happening instead of there feet, for someone who is camera shy, jem looks like he's not used to the camera being pointed at his face 😆as for the soil pipe that was like watching a science experiment by testing (with trained professionals) flammable liquid or something, anyway good too see you again and wonderful clean up as always 👍
Do you take on apprentices and if so, what's the success rate in them keeping the job before giving it up due to the smell etc? I've got collage age teens who like your vids but don't know if they could stomach it in real life.
Getting addicted to watching these videos. If you read this, can you tape / markings to the hoses? It would make it clearer to see how much the hose goes in.
you need the BIGGER battery's. I got both and the bigger ones are awesome. I've burned out my drill but the 1/4in impact w/quick chuck is a power house.
Welcome back Jem, good to see you out and about showing the boys how its done. I hope your Leo had overalls on. Now on to the next one. Where's Joe been hiding?
Q&A: In some videos when the manhole is full, you have to pick a pipe for the jetter to go up and hope its the right one, but on some occasions you've said "I hope im not going into the customers toilet", so has this ever happened? Have you ever sent the worm jetter up the wrong pipe and ended up giving the bathroom a new brown paint job?
I've heard of water company operators who have done this. Customer reports usually sound something like 'toilet exploded' and to be honest that is a fair description...
Hey Jem, love your channel, you and the boys are fun to watch. Cheers from 🇨🇦 Question: Do you have any health and safety requirements you need to meet as far as shots go for something like hepatitis or anything communicable in this line of work?
Nice to see the boss getting his hands and everything else dirty. Nice one jem👍. My question is how did you get into this type of work and would you recommend anyone to follow in your footsteps. ( but not in the literal sense😉). Also how is semi retirement going.
Our local code requires a cleanout within 3 feet above where a sewer pipe enters the ground. Even if it isn't required by code, a plumber should install one.
Nice one guys, great vid as always, was waiting for Leo to start gagging ( hes obvs getting used to it now lol) and Jem...a nod to a wise man..but, the holesaw wont cut if you cant see teeth on it because they are clogged with plastic from the last time it cut a pipe 😉.it would also be better if it had a pilot drill in it .
Was your drill on reverse, or the teeth just dull? What an experience!I wonder if a creative type could invent a shield, like a frisbee with a hole in the centre, that could surround your bit as it bites into the pipe and catch some of the spatter? You're a great group!
Something close to what you describe exists, it's called a Dust And Debris Eliminator and is mainly used by electricians drilling holes for spotlights, fans and the like
Judging by the many videos I've watched on this channel there are only two types of brits; those who take care of the spaces outside their houses and those who don't seem to give a flying toss.
Look in to an Aquatap drill. You would only need a 2" fipt adaptor and cutter. Then you could use a tapping saddle and a ball valve. The type of setup for water taps But you could control the discharge into a bucket
Plastic, but the drill was in reverse so the teeth didn't catch and split the pipe. Basically grinding his way through with the back of the teeth...or at least it looks like it. Could just be a super blunt holesaw.
It seems odd that knowing you are going to blow out the patio, no one cleared/swept the area prior to the fouling. Seems there could be an easier and more hygienic clean-up with a little prep - whether from the Unblocker guys or the homeowner.
@@SPUDHOME I guess you disagree with doing good work. You're going to shoot shit like a cannon, you might want to think about the after-affects. If you are repairing electrical or roofing, or general woodwork, you probably aren't releasing a flood of feces.
1:41 took me by surprise but it was brilliant! 🤣 I'm really looking forward to the Q&A with Jem. Any news on when we might get to see that video? No pressure, just intrigued. I'd like to see a Q&A of all of you folks eventually 🙂
I’ve often wondered why on some jobs, you don’t do a little clean round ie, moving a few leaves, bags etc before the sewage contaminates the area. On some of the jobs where there is a full manhole could you not scoop out a couple of bucket fulls in the hope it’s enough that when jetting it doesn’t come over the top and make a mess, tipping the bucket contents back in when the level has gone down?. Keep the videos coming, great work all.
Jetter 1 a.k.a. Jem: It's going to be messy. Kermit the Frog: YYYAAAYYYY! Cracked up laughing. But all seriousness, it wasn't as bad as it looked. I thought it would have been much messier. Great job as always.
You would think a piece of plastic moulded to fit the diameter of the soil pipe with an opening in it of the diameter of the hole saw, could be made that also had a lip in it of 2 inches , that would direct the flow and stop the juicy protein water going everywhere.
Even before you cut thru the pipe, I was wondering why you didn't sweep the leaves from in and around the area of where the water gush was going to occur with its runoff. I would think it would have made the clean-up a lot quicker and easyer.
use cheap cut off plastic plant pots, aluminum pie pans or similar with a hole in the center on the hole saw shank between it and the drill. that will deflect majority of the sewage water away from you and the tools, you can still place a camera to the side for as good view and spraying(lol) anything is better than taking a full on spraying yourselves. 🥳
The bonus is, I guess you don't get anyone asking to borrow your drill.
Best comment!! 🎉
Good to see the Boss back in action
Great to see Jem jetter 1 back on the job
Ever since leo joined the team (best cameraman/editor for sure) i like the fact he points the camera properly at what is happening instead of there feet, for someone who is camera shy, jem looks like he's not used to the camera being pointed at his face 😆as for the soil pipe that was like watching a science experiment by testing (with trained professionals) flammable liquid or something, anyway good too see you again and wonderful clean up as always 👍
Well in Leo lad. Taking one for the team.
Nice job Jem, even with the never ending flush...so gratified we had a sewage shower just in time for the weekend...
Jetter1 to the rescue. Great job. Nice to see you working again. Now, where is Jetter3?
Jem I really mean this, you need to teach honestly. You would be amazing!! Love your videos x
Lovely to see Jem back, Andy drives me up the wall. 😂
Amazing job Jetter 1!!
Jem, The Don doing God's work. Leo got his first headshot, boom!
Hi Jem can you do a video on the different jetter nozzles and see a demonstration of how they work
As soon as you see bombs in the thumbnail...you know mess is coming. Great way to prepare us avid fans. Great job as always!
Glad to see ya back.
Well done jetter1. Very nice clean up as always.
That drill looked like it was in reverse!😂
Even I ducked to miss that lot!!😂😂but you did a great job!👍👍👍🥰💕❤️🐶🐶
Jem. My bum was twitching as you were trying to open the stack. Then whoosh you got it right in your face 🤣😂🤣. Sorry I couldn't stop laughing 💩💩💩👍👍👍
Do you take on apprentices and if so, what's the success rate in them keeping the job before giving it up due to the smell etc? I've got collage age teens who like your vids but don't know if they could stomach it in real life.
A very good Saturday morning to you all from Wellington Somerset
GREAT 3D thanks fellas!

Great job again
Well done Leo did not gag he getting use to all that comes with drains, however did get a brown wash instead- sorry mate all in a days work
Q&A: In some videos when the manhole is full, you have to pick a pipe for the jetter to go up and hope its the right one, but on some occasions you've said "I hope im not going into the customers toilet", so has this ever happened?

I'm wondering the same thing now lol
Still wondering this
I've heard of water company operators who have done this. Customer reports usually sound something like 'toilet exploded' and to be honest that is a fair description...
Leo, a tip, stand the same side as Jem.
Messy one today.
Great job both.
Glad you got this solved! On to the next, see you on the next. Cheers mate! 🇬🇧🙂👍🇺🇸
Hey Jem, love your channel, you and the boys are fun to watch. Cheers from 🇨🇦
Question: Do you have any health and safety requirements you need to meet as far as shots go for something like hepatitis or anything communicable in this line of work?
Q: When you knew you'd have a geyser, why not get the leaves out of the way before you started working?
Nice to see the boss getting his hands and everything else dirty. Nice one jem👍. My question is how did you get into this type of work and would you recommend anyone to follow in your footsteps. ( but not in the literal sense😉). Also how is semi retirement going.
All the satisfaction, none of the smell.
Looked like the drill was in reverse to me as well.🤣
05:25 could have put one of them "1 hour later" spongebob clips here 🤣
Why didn’t the owner rake out the leafs prior to the volcano so that clean up would have been better
You guys are awesome. Thank you for the info and content.
Happy Friday 😊 😃 Jem great job as usual 🙏 good to see you love ❤ your videos keep them coming and have a bless weekend ✔ 🙏 😀
Seems like an access point on the poop pipes should be standard issue given the amount of drill outs and bungs you put in!
Our local code requires a cleanout within 3 feet above where a sewer pipe enters the ground. Even if it isn't required by code, a plumber should install one.
Leo got well Christened there Jem and you did tell him to get out of the way .
Bon travail et bon courage. Mes respects à tous les gens qui faisait bien leur travail.
Direct hit! He was definitely in the splash zone. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice work gem!
Rare use of the long-handed left glove today
Has Jetter 1's owl migrated for the winter? Not heard him for a while?🤣🤣
Why is it not recommended that at the bottom of every stack have access openings?
Wow! Splatter-cam!
Does the drill have forward and reverse ? Looked like it was spinning in reverse
There's Jetter 1's pretty face 😆 great job making him the star of the show, Leo! And sorry you got whacked with poo 🫣
I am the first person to say protect the camera but that shit (no pun) was funny.
12:35 that bung's a neat idea. What's it called? I had terrible trouble finding something online to plug a hole in a water butt once...
Nice one guys, great vid as always, was waiting for Leo to start gagging ( hes obvs getting used to it now lol) and Jem...a nod to a wise man..but, the holesaw wont cut if you cant see teeth on it because they are clogged with plastic from the last time it cut a pipe 😉.it would also be better if it had a pilot drill in it .
When cutting hole or drilling steel, I like to run my drill in the forward mode.
I didn't know things were different in Australia.
I haven't seen Jem for ages, is he taking a back seat role these days, in the office?
A mix of office and unblocks 👍
Was your drill on reverse, or the teeth just dull? What an experience!I wonder if a creative type could invent a shield, like a frisbee with a hole in the centre, that could surround your bit as it bites into the pipe and catch some of the spatter? You're a great group!
I was thinking the drill was on reverse as well!
Yep was in reverse. Teeth looked good.

Mithril pipes...
@@31PriceSubban76 more valuable than the whole shire
Lol at the Kermit YAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY 😂🤣😆🐸
Youz are that used to dealing with water saving bogs you're amazed when you come across a "proper" one .. 😁
The Man Himself! ❤
Sorry, Andy. Great editing though, as always.
Judging by the many videos I've watched on this channel there are only two types of brits; those who take care of the spaces outside their houses and those who don't seem to give a flying toss.
pretty accurate 👍😂
What about a "safety tarp" to clip onto the pipe to avoid splashing mess? ( ... And a sharper bit ...)
Look in to an Aquatap drill. You would only need a 2" fipt adaptor and cutter. Then you could use a tapping saddle and a ball valve. The type of setup for water taps
But you could control the discharge into a bucket
You did tell him to move Jem. LOL
That's a tile hole cutter is it not? Great on ceramics, not so on plastic.
Carry a leaf blower and get most of that debris out of the way beforehand
wat was that pipe made of? Leo good that you didnt gag. Must be use to drains by now. good video as always
Plastic, but the drill was in reverse so the teeth didn't catch and split the pipe. Basically grinding his way through with the back of the teeth...or at least it looks like it. Could just be a super blunt holesaw.
jem... sweep the leaves up first!! lol
Do you not use pilot bits in your hole saws ?
your rain gutters drain into the sewer as well as the waste piping. Is there a additional charge on the water bill for that?
It seems odd that knowing you are going to blow out the patio, no one cleared/swept the area prior to the fouling. Seems there could be an easier and more hygienic clean-up with a little prep - whether from the Unblocker guys or the homeowner.
Why do that when they clean up just fine already
Do you really think the owner really new what was about to happen?
@@SPUDHOME Yeah, but maybe the guys drilling did.
@@preponement is it the repairman’s job to clean your house before repairing it?
@@SPUDHOME I guess you disagree with doing good work. You're going to shoot shit like a cannon, you might want to think about the after-affects. If you are repairing electrical or roofing, or general woodwork, you probably aren't releasing a flood of feces.
Was this another blockage caused by wipes, or something else? I didn’t hear anybody say…
Dear Jem- Where did the catchphrases "Luvly Jubbly" and B-E-A-Utiful!' come from? Many thanks in advance and wishing all the crew a wonderful day! 🙂
Only fools and horses.
I think the customer could of cleaned up his yard before Jem got there !!!!!
Jem, AKA Jetter One, time to move up to a Milwaukee drill!
Hello and Good Day Jetter 1
For the Q&A who are the full team working for you now and what are their roles
Did Andy show the new camera guy the owl? 🦉
I guess his name Boris.... "Very Niccceee"
Hi USA here. Why don't you sweep the leaves1st before you start?
No offense Andy but lovely to see Jem again, where's Joe and Jetter 4?
what kind of boots do you use on the job? are they rubber or leather?
What are them rubber bungs called? Been trying to find one 🤷🏼♂️
aaaaa I missed ya Jem
Watching this over breakfast 😂
1:41 took me by surprise but it was brilliant! 🤣
I'm really looking forward to the Q&A with Jem. Any news on when we might get to see that video? No pressure, just intrigued. I'd like to see a Q&A of all of you folks eventually 🙂
An announcement on that is coming later today! thanks for watching 👍💩
Did you check the drill was not in reverse .it happens
You could do with a decent holesaw Jetter 1.
I agree
JEM!!!!

As I see it, the customer should take of their mess before the crew arrives. Then they could clean their mess up much better.
Jetter 1 a.k.a. Jem: It's going to be messy.
Kermit the Frog: YYYAAAYYYY!
Cracked up laughing.
But all seriousness, it wasn't as bad as it looked. I thought it would have been much messier. Great job as always.
5:52 Man! That splash of sewer got me wet here at my desk! Think I'll buy me a pair of scuba goggles; just to watch your videos! :)
Was that Leo with you? Nice gusher
Yea Leo the cameraman was with me on this one. Thanks for watching! 👍💩
You would think a piece of plastic moulded to fit the diameter of the soil pipe with an opening in it of the diameter of the hole saw, could be made that also had a lip in it of 2 inches , that would direct the flow and stop the juicy protein water going everywhere.
Even before you cut thru the pipe, I was wondering why you didn't sweep the leaves from in and around the area of where the water gush was going to occur with its runoff. I would think it would have made the clean-up a lot quicker and easyer.
Well he did warn the cameraman🤷♀️🤣🤣
Boys you need to develop a clear plexiglass shield for drilling the pipes
New camera!
The anticipation…. When’s it gonna go…
I love the pause in his sentence when it starts squirting.🤣🤣😜😱😏
use cheap cut off plastic plant pots, aluminum pie pans or similar with a hole in the center on the hole saw shank between it and the drill. that will deflect majority of the sewage water away from you and the tools, you can still place a camera to the side for as good view and spraying(lol)
anything is better than taking a full on spraying yourselves. 🥳
OK👍
