Hello all,
i need help
i recently bought a lovely old cottage which has one loo, downstairs which clearly has been installed relatively recently.
there is no external vent, instead there is a large grey pipe thing which the bath, the bathroom sink and the washing machine and the loo go into before the pipe disappears out to the drain.
i assume this contraption is suposed to do the job a stack normally does but i'm not sure it does. it has a removable cap on top, but haven't been to rough with it as i'm not sure what i'm doing.
the loo blocks as soon as we've got guests and there's more going down that way. the smell is getting worse and i can only assume is coming out of the washing machine drainage pipe.
i think i've inheritted a bit of a bodge job, but how can i put it right.
btw i've also got my own septic tank
