    I got a snake and water hose stuck down a clean out drain
    I put a 25ft drill snake down my clean out drain in my kitchen then decide to stick the waterhose down with it. Now both of them are stuck about 6 or so feet down. What do I do

    Put the drill in reverse and exert pressure on the hose to pull it out while the snake runs backwards, Pull back hard on the hose, Good luck. Tom

    Running hot water through the hose for a couple minutes should help here, too... should soften the rubber of the hose and that should allow you to stretch the hose a bit.

    Hope it helps~!
