Drainage in Nou Barris: what lies under the floor
In older buildings in areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta and El Turó de la Peira we often find a lead drum trap under the bathroom and lead pipes running to a fibre-cement or cast-iron stack in the light well. We renew the flat's system up to the connection and, if the shared stack is damaged, raise it with the residents' association.
Before opening the floor, in homes in areas such as La Prosperitat, Verdun and Les Roquetes we mark where each fixture goes and measure the distance to the stack. From that we work out falls and diameters: the WC on its larger pipe, and basin, bidet and shower into a shared branch.
We open up only what is necessary, take out the lead and rubble with the home protected, and leave the system tested and clean, ready for flooring. We renew waste systems nearby as well: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.

Frequently asked questions
01Internal drainage renewal in Nou Barris: which areas do you cover?
We work in Nou Barris in areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta, El Turó de la Peira, Can Peguera, La Prosperitat, Verdun, Les Roquetes and La Guineueta, and also nearby: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.
02What is a drum trap and why remove it?
It is a box, usually made of lead, under the bathroom floor that collects several waste pipes. It blocks and ends up giving off smells; today it is replaced by a trap on each fixture.
03Can I move the toilet or shower?
Yes, as long as there is enough fall to the soil stack. On the visit we measure the route and tell you which layout will work.
04How is this different from replacing drains?
Replacing a drain covers one specific fixture. Renewing the drainage replaces the whole internal system, from every fixture to the stack or manhole.
