Hope some of you can point me in the right direction, going to have a look at a blocked toilet tomo that the owners are sure is been blocked by one of the rim air freshners ? Any advice on what to use !!!
cheers everyone
 
yup toilet out. hand down pipe. if your lucky it'll be stuck in the pan connector
 
I've found that I usually find them at the first branch of the sewer
 
Roll ur sleeve up and get stuck in. T'is the only way :( Ps if its blocked because of that it will defiantly be still in the wc outlet.

time to get out the old calving gloves poncy vets use now, the long sleeves are quite useful
 
dont put your hand down it, take the pan out turn around it will be at the last part of the toilet before it leaves the pan
 
I love the smell of crappacinos in the morning. ...smells like victory ;)
Hopefully it's near the outlet of the cludgy or you might need to get them drain rods oot.
 
Double salmon hook #10, lashed to something flexable of a fine diameter. Wiggled down the hole, wait until you feel resistance and strike.
 
They should be banned if it wasn't for the fact that they can be a money maker for us!
 
Anyone got a source of those armpit length gauntlets ?
Longest I've found was these: Showa Best 690 Chemical Hazard 24" Gauntlets Blue Large | PVC & Rubber Gloves | NoLinkingToThis
We have a sewer that every few months needs a decoke and keep putting off shoving arm down there :) (coz I'm a woosa !!)

If it`s anything like the sort of low life flats I go to I`d wear welding gloves. Or get every jab you can from the doctor first.
 
Parkers Merchanting
Yep however they are a REXEL comapny and in our sector they have the worst reputaion of all for delivering late / missing items / wrong items and items going out of stock between order and despatch !!!

Possible danger of 'sharps' / needles in the trap also - one jab from that and it aint hep b its aids !!#
 
Its no problem - you should always wash your hands afterwards
and not pick your nose in between - no need for gauntlets etc
just get on with it centralheatking
 
I agree go in bare back then throw your findings to the apprentice who has his jumper over his nose.
