honestly it probably would take us just as long to try to sit there and pick all that out as it will to just pop this out and run our snake down there real quick so we'll grab the rattlers the six and one my channel lock here and apparently mine's the only one that makes that noise and we're gonna end up pulling out this whole overflow assembly that just pops right out set that aside

That Fix It GuyAir Force–trained plumber

Brian learned plumbing in the U.S. Air Force and has plumbed his way around the world. Now he films the fixes homeowners actually face: slow toilets, dripping faucets, clogged drains, failing water heaters and disposals. He shows what broke, why it broke, and how to fix it for a fraction of the cost of replacing it. He's particular about the right part, too: no snappy traps, no chemical drain cleaners. His rule: if he can do it, you can do it.
