Did you catch this weeks vlog?! Mayhem ensued. But luckily we got it patched up pretty quick!
What happens here
After the main water supply is presumably shut off (or significantly reduced), excavation begins to access the burst pipe. Initially, a person manually scoops out standing muddy water from the immediate area to clear some of the liquid. Following this, a mini excavator is utilized to dig a larger trench around the pipe, and a shovel is used for finer clearing of soil and debris to fully expose the damaged section of the pipe.
Goal: Use an excavator and manual tools to carefully dig a trench around the burst pipe, removing mud and soil to fully expose the damaged section.
