Hi all,
Having opened up the bottom of the box around the soil stack in my downstairs toilet, I was delighted to find everything in there all damp and manky. Peering up inside the box, I can see this:- http://www.stamp.plus.com/Photos/SoilStack2.JPG My untrained eye leads me to suspect a drippy leak in the lowsest (closest in the photo) waste pipe joint ![]() Obviously I need to open up the box near the joint and sort it out, but what's the best plan of attack? I have some Fernox LS-X left over from another job and I'm tempted to just seperate the joint and splurge some in. Is that doomed to fail - especially If I can't quite dry everything out first? Is there another sealer I should be using instead? I really want to avoid replacing the fitting on the stack if I can... Cheers, Colin. |
