Hi,
Been sorting out a new sink, while doing found a healthy leak hidden away. I really dont want to mess with the soil pipe (stack?) but noticed there is no seal on the female attachment socket where the sink waste pipe goes in. Assuming there is one usually?
Hence you can see I have silicon'ed and it has stopped leaking for now, like rubbing it on outside and pushing as much as I can up around the gap. Hardly permanent though I think
It was leaking when the toilet was flush or any upstairs stuff used (eww). It has leaked years before by look of it and I have put a nice new P trap on and sorted all the undersink leaking and now I find this.
Whats a good way to sort this out permanently? thanks for any help.
