Internal drainage renewal in Girona: how we plan it
In 1960s to 80s flats in areas such as Barri Vell and Mercadal the original system is often still there: drum trap, lead or iron waste pipes and joints that already leak. We replace it all in bathroom and kitchen, up to the building's stack, before the new floor goes down.
The connection to the stack is the delicate part: in buildings in areas such as Eixample, Sant Narcís and Montilivi 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 Salt, Sarrià de Ter and Sant Gregori.

Frequently asked questions
01Internal drainage renewal in Girona: which areas do you cover?
We work in Girona in areas such as Barri Vell, Mercadal, Eixample, Sant Narcís, Montilivi, Palau, Santa Eugènia and Can Gibert del Pla, and also nearby: Salt, Sarrià de Ter and Sant Gregori.
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.
