When does a soil stack need replacing?

  • Running water heard inside the wall
  • Sewer smell in the bathroom
  • Rusty cast iron stack
  • Stains on the ceiling below

What the stack replacement includes

  • Floor-by-floor inspection

    We check the material, joints and condition of the stack on every floor.

  • Opening the service duct

    We open the access panel or partition exactly where the stack runs.

  • Acoustic PVC stack

    Sound-insulated pipe that reduces the noise of waste water inside the home.

  • Branch connections

    We connect each floor's kitchen and bathroom waste pipes to the new stack.

  • Brackets and floor crossings

    Fixed at every floor and sealed where the pipe passes through the slab.

  • Testing and access

    We test the discharge and close up with an accessible inspection panel.

From roof vent to drain: how we renew a stack

In 1960s and 70s buildings in areas such as La Vila de Gràcia and El Camp d'en Grassot i Gràcia Nova, replacing the main stack means entering every flat. We prepare the quote for the owners' meeting, agree an access schedule with the property manager and give each neighbour advance notice.

Where the stack passes through a floor slab in buildings in areas such as La Salut, El Coll and Vallcarca i els Penitents, we seal the opening with material that keeps fire and noise separation between floors. We also check the roof vent, which prevents smells and gurgling.

A site manager coordinates access to each floor with neighbours and the property manager and, when we finish, we clean ducts, stairs and communal areas. We also work on buildings nearby: Eixample, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi and Horta-Guinardó.

Frequently asked questions

01

Soil stack replacement in Gràcia: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Gràcia, in areas such as La Vila de Gràcia, El Camp d'en Grassot i Gràcia Nova, La Salut, El Coll and Vallcarca i els Penitents, and also nearby: Eixample, Sarrià-Sant Gervasi and Horta-Guinardó. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

Is the stack mine or the building's?

The main stack is usually a communal element, while each home's branches are private. If the main stack needs replacing, we discuss it with the owners' association or the property manager.

03

Do you need to get into every flat?

To replace the whole stack, yes: the work goes floor by floor, through the service duct or partition in each home. We coordinate access with the neighbours and give notice in advance.

04

Why acoustic PVC?

It reduces the noise of waste water heard through the wall, which is common with standard PVC or old cast iron stacks.
