Hi
I have a damaged salt-glazed bend at the bottom of my soil stack and so need to replace this.
In case I cannot remove this cleanly from the horizontal salt-glazed pipe that goes off to the manhole (unlikely I have read) then my plan is to cut through the horizontal section at some point ans then use a Fernco to join up my new uPVC.
Problem is the salz-glazed horizontal bit has quite a bit of concrete around it.
I gather this is a very dodgy area since trying to carefully remove the concrete generally results in breaking the salt-glazed pipe.
Is the general approach to just tap at it very gently and hope for the best?
regards
Jon
