What the drainage renewal includes
-
Planning the layout
We mark fixtures, pipe runs and falls before opening the floor.
-
Drum trap removed
We take out the lead drum trap and old pipes from under the floor.
-
New PVC system
Branch pipes sized and laid to the fall required by CTE DB HS 5.
-
A trap for every fixture
Basin, shower, bidet and sink each with its own odour seal.
-
Stack or manhole connection
A watertight joint to the building's soil stack or the house's manhole.
-
Water test
We run water through every fixture and check the joints before closing up.
What changes with a new waste system
In 1960s and 70s blocks in areas such as Sants, Sants - Badal and Hostafrancs the floor slab is thin and a neighbour lives below. We lift only the flooring we need to, work within the hours set by the residents' association and protect the stairs and lift while taking out rubble.
The connection to the stack is the delicate part: in buildings in areas such as La Bordeta and La Font de la Guatlla we find cast iron, fibre cement or old PVC, and use the right adaptor for each. If the system has no venting, we add an air admittance valve.
With over 20 years of experience we can tell you on the visit which layout the fall allows, and set it out in a written quote. We also go out to nearby areas such as Eixample, Les Corts and Ciutat Vella.

Frequently asked questions
01Internal drainage renewal in Sants-Montjuïc: which areas do you cover?
We work in Sants-Montjuïc in areas such as Sants, Sants - Badal, Hostafrancs, La Bordeta, La Font de la Guatlla, El Poble-sec, La Marina de Port and La Marina del Prat Vermell, and also nearby: Eixample, Les Corts and Ciutat Vella.
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.
