    Pipe configuration soil waste pipe

    Hi, can anybody tell me if this would be ok to use as a pipe configuration? obviously the black fitting would be replaced by underground pipework, also the 3 socket t piece wouldn't be used, and it's a bit wonky, so not sure what fitting to use on that part, any advice would be good thanks

    Sink waste pipe in hard to reach location

    Hi I have a new kitchen that was just fitted. The way the kitchen sink and pipes were sitting meant the main water pipes are in the cupboard under the sink, however the waste pipe is in behind another cupboard beside it.

    MuPVC waste pipe should NOT be solvent welded to ABS waste fittings. Why?

    In reality though, it's done all the time. Most don't realise it shouldn't be done and the reasons why. So why? What are the potential problems and the likelihood of those problems happening over time if an MuPVC to ABS joint is made and brought into service for hot and cold drainage? Is...

    Hello folks I have what seems to be a standard 40mm white PVC pipe that used to hold the washing machine drain hose, which I wanted to cap off to avoid any water overflowing from (as my kitchen drainage seem to get blocked up easily, and it will probably be replaced within the next year). I...

    Leak from toilet waste pipe from floor

    I’d be grateful for some guidance on the best way to fix a leak from my toilet. The leak doesn’t come from the toilet so presuming it’s the seal next to the floor and involves the 4inch waste pipe. I am replacing the toilet anyway and presume I need to replace some kind of flange at the base...

    Looking for an easy solution to connect the waste outlet of the freestanding bath (solid sides) to the drain. Don't really want to use a flex waste connector as they block up and don't last long.

    Waste pipe on unvented blow offs??

    Hi I want to replace the 32 & 40mm waste pipes that connect to my external soil stack, not enough fall so not draining.

    I think I may have been a tool here, but I would appreciate some advice. My bathroom sink "click-clack" waste plughole jammed, so I bought a new one and fitted it. Plenty of silicone sealer, and nothing complicated. On testing it, the water was streaming out (not just dripping). It was as...
