drain

Hi any help on this one is appreciated: My Neff S51T69X2GB Dishwasher has started to not complete its wash cycle and i find it on 00 minutes with undrained hot water in the bottom not too long into a wash cycle (maybe 10-30 minutes in but is seems to vary). It did this once or twice before in...

Hi, please see attached photo showing rear wall of a 1960's semi-house. The rain-pipe and sink pipe waste run into this gutter. The green hilight shows where the new proposed 60cm wide strip foundation will run for the rear kitchen extension (about 1m deep). What is the solution for this...

Hi. I recently noticed a drip down the side of my house. Not been here long so dont know if its an old problem. It seems the culprit is an external drainpipe (from the shower I think). There is a ring of what looks like moss which is sodden. As this has only just started to be an issue, I...

I recently had the manhole cover off my drain as there was a smell of blocked drains, turned out to be next door But I did notice what looks like a small blockage at the bottom, it almost looks like cement / concrete I’ve never looked down a sewer so not sure what it should look like! Also...

I am in process of installing Hex Drain (Channel Drain) on the brick patio. I have got the underground drain available nearby where I can discharge the water. (In the picture). As you can see there is a rodding point attached. I am planning install T junction (like this...

Hi, Need to raise an existing rain water drain so that I can tee into it. Thought it would be easy but the existing clay gulley has a square hole/neck and the t-pieces are 110mm round. I had assumed I could buy a ribbed seal (or similar) but can't seem to find one. Am I googling the wrong...

Hi, My normal drain is at the head and knowing this I dug up the patio to build an extension. However, I found another pipe that was terminated at the border, but as i dug round it the soil became loose and the pipe opened. Sometime soapy water comes out and starts to flood my foundation. I...

Thanks for your replies

What's the best way to fit channel drain around corners? I don't know if the corner boxes need to line up with specific parts of the channel drain or whether any cut will fit into the box. My lengths will almost certainly be random and there is a few corners to work out

I need to fit channel drain to a clay gully. I'm going need to join into the side. I think I will cut a 70mm hole with a glass cutter and fit a 68mm pipe in the side like someone else has done on this forum. The problem I have is that I can't find any channel drain with a 70mm outlet, they're...

I'm hoping some kind soul might be able to comment if this workmanship has been carried out properly? Situation is: previously an open vented system which has been converted to a sealed system (the benefits of which I'm still unclear on). As such, an expansion vessel was positioned in the...

Hi all, I've currently got a problem with a very squelchy lawn. The lawn is on a gradual slope towards the house and is at it's worst at the bottom of the slope. The soil is generally heavy with clay as well. I was planning on installing a landdrain throughout the lawn but i'm now wondering if...

Hi all, I'm currently looking into installing a perforated land drain in my back garden as the grass is becoming a boggy mess. I currently have an aco drain along the side of the patio which leads into the house gutter drain which is close to the edge of the grass. This drain is the only option...

Easy job or not? Cheers.

Hi, I was wondering if someone can help identify this for me? (I know its going to be difficult with just pictures but thats all I have as the pipes are under the building). I have inherited this when I purchased this house. Does it looks like foul or rain water drain? In one picture you can...

As you can see from the diagram there is a foul drain running underneath a side extension to our home. The man hole on the left is in the garage, the one on the right is outside the back of the house. The challenge is: How do we connect the drains for the dishwasher and sink on the new island...

Hi there, We moved into a victorian property a couple of years ago, which already had a wrap around extension built in the 70's. The kitchen wastes run alongside an internal wall and then through what would have been the external wall at the back and down into what is now a concreted floor...

I am installing a new bathroom which will have a 5.5m run of soil pipe from the toilet to the stack. I am planning to turn the pipe 45 degrees immediately after the toilet, then a first run of 1m, followed by another 45 degrees, then the remaining 4.5m to the stack. This will all be with...

I need to fit ground Drain around my patio. It will empty into an existing rectangular clay drain. How does one join the plastic ground Drain to the clay drain? Thanks!
