Hello all,

First off I am a plumber by trade but I work almost exclusively on new builds so after buying my first house which is a little over 100yrs old this is a bit new to me.
I'm wanting to get a bathroom in upstairs in order to do so I need a stack up the side of the property, there is this which I belive to be a back inlet gulley (not 100% if not please tell me what it is 😁) am I right in thinking I can't just drop a stack into this and I would have to gun up the concrete and put in a new connection?

Any and all advise welcome

Thanks

Harry

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
