need help with a toilet waste

[dilalio]

It's been bodged over the years by people trying to avoid doing the correct job of cutting it all out and renewing back to the stack! Been there, done it! If customer doesn't want to lay out then I tell them the best that can be done is always going to be bodge!

You are right of course.

Here's a photo from outside

Well you have 2 choices. The quick fix, cutting back a little etc and using a connector or cutting back even more and fitting a more permanent solution which would include looking at the secondary vent and stack setup and renewing up to the wall. Without cutting out the whole external stack section at the branch and replacing then that seems to be the only 2 solutions it would seem.

Do you think the banded connector would work given the length of pipe I've got to work with ?

If I fit internally do you think a standard pan connector would fit ? http://www.toolstation.com/shop/p90210

So many different pan connectors I don't know which to choose. Are the angled 90 degree ones for floor connections only ?

The angled ones are for horizontal as well as floor connections. I can't recommend the toolstation slinky fit - I'll get abused by the others, once bitten. To get a more accurate internal size of the pipe you can wrap string round it when cleaned and measure that then work out the dia. from the circumference . Because the spigot on a modern pan connector may be too big for the I.D of the lead. OR get an idea of diameter through the holes that have rotted in the pipe. How many flats/outlets into the stack above ?...... Actually, does the Freeholder have responsibility for the soil pipe

 

[Madrab]

No, the bent pan connector (90deg) can be used horizontally too, just need to keep a fall on the pipe.

My advice would be - If you don't want to chop out the stack branch etc and renew the whole run then you are looking to cut the pipe back just at the breach and then see what you're left with and what's the condition of the pipe and then see if anything else needs done and type of connection(s) may be needed.

Oops, @Nige F beat me to it

Thanks guys I used a swan neck pan connector + a banded fernco coupler as you mentioned - just about got the angle on it but looks a bit p1ssed, but no more smells and no drips, so job done!

I'll repaint the lead pipe with some hammerite white + turn those metal straps the other way to tidy it up a bit. Blue paper is there just in case lol
