Hello,
I live in a house that was built in the mid 60's and recently had some work done in the toilet involving the connection of a (for the want of a better word) plastic flexible connection to an already present cast-iron waste pipe.
Shortly after the job was completed, which was done unsupervised, a leak developed that soaked the landing carpet. So clearly it was a major problem.
The plumber was recalled and corrected the issue of the leak, which at the joint of the cast-iron waste pipe was sealed with Plumbers Mait.
My main concern now is should the join at the point of the cast-iron waste pipe and the plastic sleeve have been more than just Plumbers Mait?
Your views and suggestions are much appreciated.
