Internal drainage renewal in Ripollet: how we plan it
In 1960s to 80s flats 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 (plentiful in Centre and Quatre Cantons).
The connection to the stack is the delicate part: 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.
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: Cerdanyola del Vallès, Montcada i Reixac and Barberà del Vallès.

Frequently asked questions
01Internal drainage renewal in Ripollet: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Ripollet, in areas such as Centre, Quatre Cantons, Can Tiana, Pont Vell, Can Mas, Maragall and Pinetons, and also nearby: Cerdanyola del Vallès, Montcada i Reixac and Barberà del Vallès. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
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.
