When should the drainage be renewed?

  • Lead drum trap under the floor
  • Smells that return after cleaning
  • Several fixtures blocking at once
  • Moving the toilet or shower

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.

Drainage in L'Escala: what lies under the floor

Near the sea, in areas such as Nucli antic, Poble Sec and Les Terroges, damp and salt corrode lead or cast-iron sections, especially exposed ones in courtyards and on terraces. We replace them with PVC and leave access fittings where they can be opened without breaking anything.

Before opening the floor, in homes in areas such as Riells, La Clota and Muntanya de Montgó 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 visit the home, locate the stack and pipe routes and give you a detailed written quote; a site manager coordinates plumbing, floor and tiling. We also renew drainage in nearby areas: Torroella de Montgrí, Sant Pere Pescador and Viladamat.

Frequently asked questions

01

Internal drainage renewal in L'Escala: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in L'Escala, in areas such as Nucli antic, Poble Sec, Les Terroges, Riells, La Clota, Muntanya de Montgó, Sant Martí d'Empúries and Les Corts, and also nearby: Torroella de Montgrí, Sant Pere Pescador and Viladamat. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

What 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.

03

Can 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.

04

How 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.
