James from Plumbdog heads out to Midvale to investigate a blocked kitchen sink — but the real challenge isn’t just the blockage… it’s finding the drain!
After the homeowner recently had their backyard concreted, the disconnector gully was completely buried, leaving no access to the drain line. The only solution? Cut through the concrete and expose the hidden gully.
