[00:00:03]Luke, how are you, mate? Good, >> mate. How are you?

[00:00:05]>> What have we got here? Ah, >> same old, same old. We got a bit of a swamp happening at >> block drain.

[00:00:12]>> Isn't it beautiful?

[00:00:14]>> And they said it wasn't too bad, eh?

[00:00:15]>> Smells like money. [laughter] >> See, it just pops off. No, we're going to have to drill it off.

[00:00:30]water.

[00:00:38]Now tap connector.

[00:00:53]There it is.

[00:01:00]Oh, you got it off.

[00:01:03]Well done.

[00:01:06]>> I can't feel my hands. [laughter] >> Welcome to my world, Luke.

[00:01:14]And it's not just the hands in my world.

[00:01:17]>> It gets everywhere.

[00:01:28]Okay, turn the water on.

[00:01:31]>> It actually It's not coming through to here at all.

[00:01:33]>> No. So, it's got to be blocked between here and here.

[00:01:35]>> Yeah.

[00:01:36]>> I think it's probably >> snapped at the uh at the join, which it has. And there's roots growing in through there.

[00:01:46]The usual Yeah.

[00:02:16]Open at the little junk. Square junction there.

[00:02:18]>> Yeah.

[00:02:22]That's the weak point. The T junction where it comes in.

[00:02:24]>> Had a little snap there.

[00:02:28]All split main hose.

[00:02:43]Looks like the connection at the bottom's not too bad.

[00:02:46]>> Well, we'll have a look from here to the mains. hoping >> and just make sure that that's all right.

[00:02:53]If we can get the camera past those roots, [clears throat] there's the mains there.

[00:03:19]>> That looks all right.

[00:03:22]that junction. So, it must be the same spot every time, Luke. Maybe just that T junction.

[00:03:28]>> Yeah, >> we'll have a look up once I clear those roots at what's going on there.

[00:03:34]>> So, those roots aren't from the tree.

[00:03:36]>> They are.

[00:03:38]>> But they're going to be coming in through a split. And that split's probably happening just on that T junction.

[00:03:46]Last time it was my brother-in-law got a temporary clean out.

[00:04:11]Turn her on.

[00:04:19]We might not be on long enough.

[00:04:43]Yeah, I know.

[00:05:29]You can see the brake there.

[00:05:30]>> Yeah.

[00:05:34]>> So, going to position this into there.

[00:05:38]Give it a little bit more of a twist.

[00:05:44]Heat.

[00:06:05]Heat.

[00:06:09]Heat.

[00:06:38]Heat.

[00:06:40]There we go.

[00:06:44]That'll do it.

[00:06:48]Put something on the end of it.

[00:06:55]I reckon it's a nice big bit of root.

[00:07:01]Chunky root.

[00:07:05]Heat.

[00:07:24]Heat.

[00:07:38]Pressure off. Release pressure.

[00:07:46]>> Yeah, almost done. I'll just give it a little blast and then we'll have a look up there with the camera at the damage.

[00:07:59]We might be able to come from the gully.

[00:08:00]Actually, we'll do that with a smaller camera.

[00:08:21]>> Yeah, I wouldn't get down and sniff it.

[00:08:23]It will definitely smell. [laughter] All right, smaller camera. We'll try and get around this trap and see what's going on from this side.

[00:08:51]It's a tight one.

[00:09:02]doesn't really want to go around that one.

[00:09:05]We might try the other camera. See if we can get that around.

[00:09:31]You got to have had that one.

[00:09:33]>> I've had this one for a little while.

[00:09:35]>> This one negotiates BP just a tiny bit >> better than the other one, but still no guarantee we'll get around.

[00:09:46]>> Nearly got mine stuck the other week.

[00:09:48]>> Did Joe?

[00:09:48]>> Yeah.

[00:09:49]>> What one have you got? the little uh >> one you got.

[00:09:53]>> Oh, yeah. That one.

[00:09:54]>> I forgot you about that one. It's still going. All right.

[00:09:57]>> Yeah, so far.

[00:09:58]>> That's good. That That'll probably get around here, you know.

[00:10:05]>> Charge, >> is it?

[00:10:07]Which is always better.

[00:10:17]>> This one's struggling, too.

[00:10:19]Okay, I do have another little mini mini mini mini one. Yeah, >> we can try that. If not, we'll just go from this side and flick up.

[00:10:30]>> Let's just go from there.

[00:10:31]>> Yeah. Okay.

[00:10:39]>> Unless you think it's easier.

[00:10:41]>> No. No. This will probably be better from here.

[00:10:44]How long's the charge on that one last?

[00:10:47]>> This one? Not long. An hour, I'm guessing.

[00:10:55]>> Yeah.

[00:10:56]>> Oh, yeah. Well, >> so yeah, there's a little bit of a split going on there.

[00:11:10]>> Yeah.

[00:11:11]>> You see the brake >> up there?

[00:11:17]somewhere.

[00:11:20]>> That one sort of moved away.

[00:11:22]>> Crack, crack, crack. Split there. That's where the roots were coming in from.

[00:11:27]I'll just give it a quick jet up there just in case there's a few dangly bits theft.

[00:11:33]But you're probably going to replace it anyway. Hey, Luke.

[00:11:36]>> I don't like the chances of it lasting very long. So, >> do you mind if we stick up another meter or so?

[00:11:44]>> I can't. It's not flicking in. Um, you know what we can do?

[00:11:58]This will do it.

[00:12:12]>> Yeah, we'll get you the fluffy toilet soon.

[00:12:16]But I'll uh we'll get the camera up there now and we'll have a fix just a bit.

[00:12:22]Sometimes there's one problem, sometimes there's six.

[00:12:28]All of them man.

[00:12:41]There we go.

[00:12:45]Yeah.

[00:13:01]>> That one's not wanting to go around.

[00:13:07]>> Mter.

[00:13:11]>> Yeah.

[00:13:14]It should only take you three days to fix that. Eh, drop it down.

[00:13:27]Wait for the clink.

[00:13:37]Clink. We're in.

[00:13:39]Turn on.

[00:13:56]Heat up here.

[00:14:23]All right, I think we're ready for a toilet paper flush test.

[00:14:40]Yes, please.

[00:14:44]>> You want me to pause in between washes or not?

[00:14:46]>> Uh, yeah. Just let it fill up and then do it again. Thanks, mate.

[00:14:55]>> All right. Flushing the toilets inside.

[00:14:58]We should see that come sweeping out of here.

[00:15:09]On the count of three. One, two, three.

[00:15:20]>> You hear that?

[00:15:22]>> I didn't hear it.

[00:15:26]>> Should be here in a minute.

[00:15:28]>> Would you believe four? Beautiful.

[00:15:33]That's the only toilet, eh?

[00:15:34]>> Yeah.

[00:15:35]>> Okay. Well, that's the only toilet.

[00:15:38]That's the only flush.

[00:15:40]Loud and clear paper and all. I'll just give this a little bit of a clean up now and we're done.

[00:15:49]Sh.

[00:15:51]>> Um, yeah, maybe. Yeah. If you can get some of it in there.

[00:16:00]and I'll hose it down.

[00:16:11]Beautiful.

[00:16:26]Love your work, Luke.

[00:16:40]Heat. Heat.

[00:16:49]Heat. Heat.

[00:17:11]Heat.

[00:17:32]Heat.

[00:18:14]That one off.

[00:18:28]Winder off. Break off.

[00:18:35]throw another rain wash, but I'll I'll give you a price and I think that was it.

[00:19:06]If they've got cash on >> Yeah.

[00:19:09]>> 300 350.

[00:19:11]>> Yeah.

[00:19:16]>> There you go.

[00:19:45]Walara the other day.

[00:19:51]>> Where are you going?

[00:20:20]Don't say that.

[00:20:37]That guy called me back.

[00:20:39]>> Oh, did he? Winston?

[00:20:40]>> Yeah. And I was working on 100.

[00:20:44]>> Uh-huh.

[00:20:45]>> I'll call him back.

[00:20:46]>> Uhhuh.

[00:20:47]>> Got to called him back on the weekend.

[00:20:49]>> Yeah.

[00:20:49]>> And he sent me some footage to repote from >> Okay.

[00:20:53]>> You know those two junctions that one faces up, the other both >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Yep. One facing the property, one facing the street.

[00:21:01]>> Exactly. He wants me to quote from to the boundary trap.

[00:21:06]>> Yep.

[00:21:06]>> And then from the boundary trap to the street.

[00:21:08]>> Okay.

[00:21:11]>> He was a nightmare.

[00:21:17]Some make it so easy for you as you know and others all good in the end. Just a cracked pipe and a few tree roots.
