[URL="http://www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/forum1/report.php?p=237922"]Hello this is my 1st post so please be nice.
At the weekend i went to repaint my soil stack outside.
All was going ok till i got to the branch part where the pipe from the wc comes out of the house into the branch on the stack i noticed it was a bit wet. I was sanding it down ready for painting and there was bits of cement coming off the collar and then i saw that the collor had a crack in it and i think the branch is clay after scraping some paint off it.
The pipe from the floor to the branch is cast iron and the branch is clay and then from there to the top of the house it is cast again.
Pipe out of wall is also clay.
What i would like to know is how do i replace branch part without disturbing the rest or will i have to replace the whole lot from floor to top of the house?.
I will get some photo's later to show.
Thanks for any advice.
